The guests were afraid their lives would be at stake and started shrieking in fear of being taken out.
Things were chaotic since everyone, including Bruce and Jared, was startled by the presence of the intruder.
A few seconds after they returned to their senses and caught a glimpse of the intruder, they saw a mysterious figure next to the intruder.
It was none other than Byron, who was drenched in blood, unconscious next to the intruder.
Bruce could no longer suppress his wrath when he saw his brother. He yelled, “Byron!”
Those who were aware of the truth started clenching their fists with their teeth gritted in wrath.
“It’s him! I can’t believe he has the guts to show up in front of us!”
They were rendered speechless since they had just gotten their hands on the so-called intruder’s whereabouts just a few minutes ago.
They couldn’t believe Levi’s ultimate goal was to ruin the ceremony.
As the guests engaged themselves in a heated discussion, they finally figured out the truth and found out Byron had been abducted.
“Are you serious? I don’t think an Erudian possesses the capabilities to abduct someone away from us!”
No one, not even Jared, found the rumors reliable and thought something must have been wrong with the brains of the officials of Erudia.
Otherwise, there was no way they would start another fight after such a massive and serious war.
Truth be told, Jared didn’t bother to keep his plans to himself since he was certain the officials of Erudia would stop picking on him.
To his surprise, someone from Erudia had shown up at the ceremony and brought everything to a halt. It was evident he was the target of the intruder.
Thousands of guests, who had gathered around, couldn’t move their eyes away from Levi and the unconscious Byron next to him.
In order to save his brother, Bruce warned, “You’d better stay away from him! I’ll consider setting you free and showing you some mercy! Otherwise, I won’t allow you to leave unscathed!”
Levi glanced at him for a short while and looked elsewhere since he was there for Jared instead of him.
“It’s your turn to atone for your sins, Jared! You don’t think you get to escape, do you?” Levi broke the silence and asked.
Jared felt a chill running down his spine when he heard the familiar voice.
Overwhelmed by the horrifying thoughts in his mind, he went dead silent.
“Jared, are you aware of your sins? You have joined others and murdered your fellow countrymen without showing them any mercy! Do you really think you can be the ruler of another nation? I will never forgive the traitors of Erudia! It’s time for you to return to Erudia and atone for your sins!”
As Levi was at the top of his lungs, Jared got down on his knees as his legs turned to jelly. Similarly, the traitors of Erudia were afraid of the things awaiting them.
They thought they might end up just like Jared if the intruder were to come after them.
As the guests continued staring at Levi, he marched in the direction of Jared, intimidating those around them, including Henry, Shaun, and Fabian.
When Levi caught a glimpse of the familiar faces, he was startled and confused by their presence.
Wait! Why the heck are they here? Have they turned their backs against the country as well? I have been turning a blind eye over these arrogant youngsters because of Zoey, but I guess they don’t deserve any mercy at all!
Henry and his peers felt chills running down their spines since the mysterious figure had glanced at them for a few seconds.
What does he want from us? Is there anything special about us?
It was then they had a bad feeling about the things in store for them. They thought they might lose everything soon.
As Levi continued marching across the youngsters, he finally reached Jared’s side.
“Why don’t you turn yourself in? That way, I’ll consider doing you a favor instead of beating you to a pulp!”
On the other hand, Jared had finally regained his composure. Staring at Levi in the eyes, he announced with a proud grin, “Aren’t you aware you’re currently at Zarain? We won’t allow you to get things your way!”
“What’s so great about Zarain? I’ll come and go as I please!”
