“In the future, I will do my utmost to protect Sire’s family. I will make sure they live a happy and carefree life, keeping them safe from harm. And I will carry out his instructions to my best abilities. Thierry secretly made up his mind, determination written all over his face.
He might have been wary of Levi, or in awe of him in the past, but now, he had only respect for the great hero.
Meanwhile, those in The Calamity and people like George had also decided they would seek revenge for Levi.
The Great Family of Westford wanted to build a huge monument for Crown King in North Hampton.
“This is so unfair! Why did a hero like Crown King have to perish and suffer such a tragic death? Shouldn’t it be traitors like Levi who deserve death more?”
“Definitely! If it was possible, we would gladly exchange Levi’s life for that of the Crown King!”
The Lopez and Black families were grousing at what they deemed as being an unfair world. They sincerely wished Levi was the one dead.
Zoey, while grieving the passing of Crown King, was also worried for Levi.
Where are you now? How are you? You are fine, right? Please come back soon… Evie and I are waiting for you…
Erudia sent men out to search for Levi, but despite the multiple attempts, they failed to find him, confirming their biggest fear. He had no chance of surviving.
Internationally, at the Eighteen-Nation Alliance, they ruled that the Crown King of Erudia had chosen to embark on a killing spree over a small dispute. As such, to protect the innocent lives, they had no choice but to kill him off.
The international condemnation of Erudia and Crown King came fast and furious. Erudia was accused of being unreasonable, and Crown King was portrayed as an arrogant man who wanted to dominate Bayview.
Not only did Crown King sacrifice his life, he unjustly got a bad name and all the blame as well
What a shameless Prince William!
And what an audacious Zarain!
The Erudians were fuming at the name smear campaign, as Crown King had defended their honor and pride!
The international fallout was a costly blow to Erudia. Prince William’s plan succeeded, and he was elated.
Satisfied with The Avengers, he gifted them a colony.
The Avengers already had thirteen islands and a huge piece of land. As soon as they successfully execute their plans, they would be in a position to pull off the big political sell-out.
“Now that Crown King had perished, no one can stop us anymore!” Kuro Dragon gloated as he shared the good news with The Avengers.
Unknown to The Avengers, they were being spied on and targeted.
Meanwhile, members of The Calamity were anxious and aggrieved. However, without the order of their Master, they could only continue to keep a watch on The Avengers. They kept a glimmer of hope that someday, they would get the order from the Master that they were still waiting for.
It had been three days since the battle at Mount Drago. The fire had died down, and the smoke cleared. What was left was a devastated Mount Drago, with the razed and burnt ground, looking every inch what hell would be like.
Erudia was still praying for a miracle.
“If miracle had a color, it would be red!”
A burnt flag pole was found in the ruins, and as expected, the Erudian Banner was nowhere to be found.
There was no chance Levi had survived, and Erudia’s hope for a miracle was dashed. Levi was human after all, not immortal. Bullets alone could kill him, let alone that carpet-bombing. No matter how strong he was, they did not believe he could have survived.
As such, Erudia announced that Crown King was dead, and he would be posthumously proclaimed a Martyr.
Somewhere on a deserted shore in Keerea, a little girl was picking crabs. Suddenly, she cried out, “Mommy, look! There is a man in the sea!”
