Raising his voice, Levi sent a chill down everyone’s spine.
Especially Severus and Rico, whose legs trembled in fear.
Rico quickly retracted his hand from the key.
Although the key was right in front of them, they could only stare at it. They didn’t have the courage to go for it.
That was how intimidating Levi’s presence was.
No one dared to disobey his order even though he was just a civilian.
“L-Levi, what’s the meaning of this? Why are you interfering in the Dragonites’ business?” Severus asked with a trembling voice.
“Does this only relate to the Dragonites? This matter relates to Erudia and involves every single citizen!”
“You should just leave. I won’t release him. If you’re not willing to stand up for Erudia, I will!”
“Erudians are not afraid of anyone. Any foreigner that commits a crime here will have to suffer the consequences!”
Levi stated his stand clearly.
“Levi, you’re crazy!”
“I don’t believe it. I’m going to unlock the cage and let him go. Let’s see what you’re going to do about it!”
Steeling his resolve, Severus grabbed the key and walked toward the cage.
“Be my guest!”
Levi laughed.
Clink!
Severus opened the cage door to let Byron out.
“Mr. Johnston, you’re free and in safe hands now.”
Severus smiled.
Byron almost cried tears of gratitude when he was finally released.
However, he saw Levi approach him.
Byron’s heart sank while his expression drastically changed.
“W-What are you doing?”
Severus asked subconsciously when he sensed Levi’s murderous intent.
Bam!
Ignoring Severus, Levi slammed a kick into Byron’s body, sending him flying several meters back.
Jumping onto Byron, Levi began hammering him with his fist, causing him to squeal in misery.
Rico and Severus were bewildered.
“How dare you leave without my permission? Did you think that I was kidding when I threatened to dismantle your metal frame?”
Levi’s eyes widened as he glared fiercely at Byron.
“No, I did not. I believe you!”
Byron nodded rapidly.
“Get back into the cage!” Levi shouted.
Byron quickly slipped back into his cage and even closed the door himself.
“What…”
Severus and Rico were stunned.
Why is Byron so terrified of Levi?
After all, he is a Supreme class fighter while Levi is just a civilian.
Nevertheless, they were still shocked by how ruthless Levi was.
“Levi, how insolent can you be? How dare you beat up Mr. Johnston? Are you trying to create conflict on purpose?”
“Exactly! The Dragonites have ordered him to be released. This no longer concerns you!”
“Levi, you’re just a civilian and have no right to interfere with Dragonites’ business. Stop messing around. We have to take him with us today!”
Severus and Rico asserted their stand.
Levi returned to his seat and waved his hand. “Whatever. He’s right there. Go ahead and take him.”
Rico and Severus returned to the cage and opened it.
“Mr. Johnston, let’s go. We will escort you,” both of them offered with a smile.
“No…”
However, Byron shook his head vehemently as he curled further into his cage.
Looking at Levi in horror, he didn’t dare come out at all.
“This…”
Severus and Rico were flabbergasted.
“Come out now, Mr. Johnston. He won’t dare hurt you.”
Both of them insisted on getting him out.
