Sherrie and the others left beforehand because they didn’t care about Levi at all.
To them, he was nothing more than an ant on the ground.
Freddie was young, so it was understandable that he was upset after Levi told him off.
That was why he waited for Levi.
“My family has always reminded me not to make a mess in any other regions of Erudia because it would be troublesome to deal with the aftermath. However, we’re on Goldenport Island now, and this is my turf! Just watch as I bring you to your knees,” murmured Freddie before he sneered.
It only took him a second before he came up with tons of ideas to hurt Levi.
Those thoughts were so cruel that Freddie almost laughed aloud.
“Why hasn’t that punk left?” asked one bodyguard, who couldn’t help getting impatient. It had been minutes, but there were still no signs of Levi.
“Let’s wait a little longer. The economic cabin is probably too far away,” replied Freddie.
Five minutes passed…
Ten minutes went…
Time trickled by.
They waited for twenty whole minutes, but Freddie and his men never saw Levi around.
“What is going on? Did that punk get off beforehand?” blurted Freddie, who was starting to get suspicious.
“That is not possible. We have been standing guard by the entrance ever since the ship got near the harbor. No one has left the ship. That punk is just an ordinary guy, so there is no way he could’ve left without us noticing,” informed one guard firmly.
They were all incredible fighters, so there was no way a person could slip away without them noticing.
It is simply impossible!
Freddie didn’t doubt what his men said.
“Is that punk hiding on the ship because he’s afraid I’d go after him?” blurted Freddie, who thought that was the only thing that made sense.
“It’s possible!”
The men’s eyes glowed.
“Then go search the ship now! And leave a few guys here to stand guard.”
Over ten of Freddie’s bodyguards boarded the ship to look for Levi.
Unfortunately, they couldn’t find him anywhere, even after they searched every inch of the place.
“What are you looking for?” asked a worker on the ship.
“Where is that punk?” demanded Freddie.
“Oh, him? He got off the ship ages ago.”
There weren’t many people on the ship, so the servers paid attention to Levi as well.
They saw Levi hopping off the ship with their own eyes.
“What? He left? When did that happen?”
Freddie and his men were downright stunned.
“About twenty minutes ago.”
“That is not possible. We were standing guard over here twenty minutes ago, so he couldn’t have left!” insisted Freddie.
The worker grinned in exasperation and replied, “I checked the watch when I saw him hopping off, so I’m certain I got the time right.”
“It’s true. We all saw the guy leaving twenty minutes ago,” informed the rest of the crew.
Freddie and his men were stunned because they could tell that the workers weren’t lying.
“What the hell?”
How can a person disappear into thin air like that?
We were standing guard the entire time, so how could he have slipped away from right under our noses?
That is not possible… unless that guy is…
The only other explanation they could come up with was that Levi was not an ordinary guy. Instead, he was a great fighter who was more powerful than everyone around.
But that is not likely.
“Do you think maybe he knew that we were standing guard, so he jumped into the sea and swam away?” suggested a guard.
“Yes! That is possible.”
Everyone thought that made perfect sense.
Freddie had his men search the ship one more time and only left after they were certain that no one was there.
Despite that, Freddie thought that something seemed off.
My men should’ve detected him even if he jumped into the sea. They are not ordinary bodyguards after all. These men are either skilled fighters or have superpowers. They should’ve detected someone slipping away as soon as he swam away.
“Something is off. Find him!”
Freddie sent his men to search the entire Goldenport Island for Levi.
At that moment, Levi was already at the center of the busy district.
He wanted to avoid unnecessary troubles, so he deliberately avoided Freddie and his men.
