A few men and women in suits arrived at the scene and stopped Levi.
“From now on. Jared Schmidt is ours! No one lays a finger on him!”
The woman in the front glared at Levi.
Levi was stunned for a brief moment.
He was surprised that those normal people thought they could stop him.
“Who are you people?”
Floyd’s expression changed as he explained, “Master, they are from the Dragon Science and Technology Alliance! They’re in charge of the lab that specializes in advanced technology for Erudia. They’re the strongest in Erudia! They just revealed themselves after what happened.”
He paused. “This is Wynona from the Dragon Science and Technology Alliance. The youngest female scientist in Erudia. She and her team just develop a terrifying superweapon!”
Then, Floyd got closer to Levi and whispered into his ears, “She’s not just an average Jane. She’s actually very capable.”
Hearing that, Levi froze for an instance.
Ever since Jared presented the God of Slaughter, people no longer underestimated the regular people.
Levi included.
These average joes had the potential to catch all of them by surprise, after all.
For example, the person behind the Ruling Union’s gigantic army of martial artists might even be a normal guy.
All he needed to do was to utter one word or make a plan, and tens of thousands of martial artists would die, just like that.
In Wynona’s opinion, most martial artists were reckless and uneducated.
That was why she did not have a good impression of Levi.
“We’re here to inform you that, from now onwards, Jared Schmidt is officially under the Dragon Science and Technology Alliance’s custody!” Wynona declared in a boastful tone.
Floyd and the others kept quiet.
It was clear that they were informed about it.
Jared, who was on the floor, curled his lips and looked at Levi, taunting him.
“Even if you brought me to Erudia, you still can’t kill me!” Jared said mockingly.
“If you have no more questions, we’ll be taking him away then. The paperwork is all done,” Wynona said before the men behind her approached Jared.
“Give me one good reason!” Levi exclaimed as Wynona was about to leave with Jared.
Everyone looked at him.
“I’m the one that brought him back from Zarain! His life is mine! I could have killed him ages ago! But I chose to bring him back here so he may pay for his sins on Erudian soil!” Levi continued.
What he said stunned Wynona for a second. “Indeed, you are the hero of Erudia. I admire you for that! But please have the wisdom to consider the grander scheme of things!”
“What is there to consider?” Levi asked.
“It is true that Jared is guilty beyond imaginable, that he deserves nothing less than the death penalty! But he is the greatest genius of all time! Ending his life would be such a waste! I think it’s much more beneficial if we make use of his intelligence for the betterment of Erudia!”
She paused to take a deep breath. “Besides, I trust that Jared is a man that knows repentance. He’ll understand where he did wrong and serve Erudia dutifully!”
As soon as Wynona finished, Jared immediately chimed in. “That’s right! I deeply regret everything that I did. All I want now is a chance to seek forgiveness. I want to serve the mighty Erudia. I’ll share everything I know with you all… “
To everyone there, it looked like Jared was sincerely admitting to his faults and was looking for a way to repent.
However, Levi knew that bastard all too well.
He’s merely trying to save his skin!
“So, do you have any more questions?” Wynona asked.
Levi shook his head. “No. I’m just going to kill him!”
