Soon, news of Byron’s capture spread quickly.
Bruce smashed the table in front of him. “I told him not to cause any trouble. And now, his life is in danger!”
“Master, our priority is to rescue him first,” his servants suggested.
“Quickly, inform Zarain and get them to pressure Erudia into releasing Byron,” Bruce instructed.
“Understood. We’ll get right on it!”
Soon, his subordinates located Byron.
“Master, Byron is being imprisoned by Levi in North Hampton!”
Bruce sprang to his feet. “What? Levi? Isn’t he a civilian without any positions now? What right does he have to lock up my brother?”
The next moment, a smile broke out on his face. “This is actually to our advantage. It would be a lot more troublesome if he was captured by the Dragonites. However, given that he is locked up by a civilian, we can not only rescue him but also demand an apology and compensation from them.”
“That’s right! We’ll execute the plan at once!”
Locked in his cage, Byron stared at the manor.
He swore to himself that he would exact brutal revenge on Levi upon his release.
He decided to destroy Levi’s family, especially the women.
At that moment, Levi was feeding the dogs in the cage next to him, infuriating Byron at the same time.
Is he treating me lesser than a dog?
He felt the urge to flare his temper but didn’t dare to do so.
Instead, he glared at Levi with his fists clenched.
Thud! Thud! Thud!
Suddenly, the sound of footsteps rang out as Floyd arrived with a grim look on his face.
“Master, I…”
Floyd hesitated.
“Speak!”
Levi continued to feed the dogs without looking up.
“I’m afraid we have to release him.”
Floyd glanced at Byron in his cage.
When he heard he was about to be released, Byron smiled in delight.
“Hahaha! I told you that you will have to let me go. I’ll make you suffer the moment I get out!”
He began to behave arrogantly.
“Shut up!” Levi snapped.
Byron stopped at once as he felt that getting beaten up again just wasn’t worth it.
“I didn’t give permission to release him,” Levi remarked coldly.
Floyd looked conflicted. “However, the Dragonites have ordered us to release him. They said that as a civilian, you have no authority to imprison him and you are breaking the law by doing so. Now, Zarain is angry and is exerting pressure on Erudia. Hence, the Dragonites have ordered us to release him at once!”
Byron let out a smug expression when he heard Floyd’s words.
Erudia is made up of a bunch of cowards. Despite being captured for stealing something, they have no choice but to release me still. This feels amazing!
“Master, if you have no objections, I will free him.”
Floyd couldn’t help but suggest in response to Levi’s silence.
At the same time, he waved his hand for his subordinates to release Byron from his cage.
“Wait! How dare you!”
Levi’s roar shocked everyone, causing them to stare blankly at him.
“Master, I am just following the procedures. Y-You really don’t have the authority to lock him up,” Floyd said.
Levi sprang up to his feet and scowled, “Are you questioning my authority? Let me tell you. I am an ordinary citizen of Erudia. Anything that threatens Erudia is my business. And that is where my authority comes from!”
