“What happened?”
“Why were they beaten up instead?”
Everyone looked on in disbelief.
Logically speaking, Levi should have been the one to be beaten.
However, Helios and his comrades ended up getting hurt instead.
The strange phenomenon intrigued everyone.
“What’s going on?”
“Where’s Levi?” Zoey asked at once.
Something must have either happened to Levi or he isn’t just an ordinary person.
The thought that there was more to Levi and the fact that he could beat up those guys caused Zoey’s expression to drastically change.
Helios ignored them and went to see Avery instead.
Soon, Avery had gathered the citizens of Wildefield at a plaza as Helios had requested him to do so.
However, he was curious as to what Helios intentions were.
“Tell me what happened?”
Thump!
Helios and the other three drop to their knees suddenly.
Helios sobbed, “Mr. Fairclough, we have let you down. Actually, there is something we have been hiding from you and the people of Wildefield.”
The crowd was surprised.
“What? What did you do?” Avery asked.
“Mr. Fairclough, Evie’s father was right. We were the ones who leaked the information about her to Shadow Order.”
Helios confessed everything in public.
Everyone gaped in disbelief as if they were struck by lightning.
Levi was actually telling the truth?
All of us were wrong about him!
Zoey and Mia trembled in response.
“Evie’s father was right. We were jealous of her.”
Helios and his comrades bared their souls honestly.
“What? All of you! I am utterly disappointed in you. Do you know you have almost ruined Wildefield’s future?”
With a wave of his hand, Avery sent out a terrifying shockwave.
Bam!
Helios and the others were all sent flying.
“I must punish the four of you for attempting to harm your fellow pupil!”
“You might have escaped the death sentence, but you will still be tortured as your punishment. After that, you will be imprisoned in a cave for ten years!” Avery roared.
“Thank you, Mr. Fairclough, for your mercy.”
Helios and the others kowtowed.
“From now on, you are no longer my disciples. I am officially breaking all ties with you!”
“I hereby declare that I, Avery Fairclough, have only one disciple from now on and it will be Forlevia!”
Just when they were about to be led away, Alfred’s voice rang out.
“Hold on!”
Alfred walked up to them and asked, “Something isn’t right. Not only didn’t you admit your mistake before this, but you also blamed Levi for it. So, why the sudden change of mind?”
“That’s right! I heard that you went out with Levi for a while. When you returned, your face was all swollen. Now, you’re confessing to your deeds? What really happened?” Treston asked.
The moment the two elders spoke, everyone looked at Helios as they too were curious.
Zoey and Mia were even more so.
They were eager to know what happened during the meeting with Levi and what had caused Helios to switch his tune.
“We…”
Looking conflicted, Helios didn’t want to be reminded of what had happened.
“Speak the truth! Tell us what happened with Levi!” Avery bellowed.
Helios pursed his lips.
Breathing rapidly, Zoey stared intently at them.
