Chapter 2231 The Replacement
Regardless, the results spoke for itself. Ever since Edmund took over Garrison Industry, it rose rapidly in the ranks. Garrison Industry would not be in its current position if it were not for Edmund.
If it were anyone else, Garrison Industry would not be able to achieve the strength comparable to what it currently had.
It was only able to become one of the top factions and stand toe to toe with Maya Industries because Edmund was strong. He managed everything with an iron fist and had the background and status to back him up.
No one else would produce the same effect. Hence, everyone in Garrison Industry respected Edmund wholeheartedly. Even wayward people like Kirin, who was initially reluctant, were convinced by Edmund.
That man is clearly a different breed. He also played a vital role in helping Kirin and the others grow into who they were.
Edmund would always provide them with the best technique and supplements, disregarding the conflict in the past.
By then, everyone in Garrison Industry was convinced that Edmund was the new boss of the place, and Levi was just the founder.
There was a vast distinction between the two.
“Yes, those are the facts, Boss. Garrison Industry is where it is today because of The Cardinal Hall General!”
Everyone agreed unanimously.
Levi snickered. “So, Garrison Industry belongs to The Cardinal Hall General now?”
As soon as he said that, the atmosphere immediately turned cold, and everyone went silent.
No one dared to say another word, not even Robed Slayer.
A long silence ensued.
That said, Levi already had an answer.
The silence was the answer.
“It’s alright guys. Don’t take it too seriously! I was just asking!”
Levi smiled. “But tell me, are you guys really okay with The Cardinal Hall General being in charge of Garrison Industry? Be honest! I don’t want silence!”
“About that…”
Everyone looked at each other after hearing Levi’s question.
“Sir, I have accepted him wholeheartedly!” Robed Slayer was the first to step forward.
And that caused a domino effect as Kirin and the others stepped out, one after another.
“Me too!”
“Same here!”
Wynona also stepped forward and said, “Well, you can put it this way. In the past, Erudia had you. Now, Erudia has The Cardinal Hall General!”
Everyone had accepted Edmund.
“Alright! That’s all I needed to hear! I was just worried that you guys might be working for him begrudgingly!” Levi smiled.
He was actually happy to see that Garrison Industry was prospering.
Edmund being in charge was not a problem.
After all, they were all Erudia’s forces.
He figured the stronger they are, the better for Erudia.
He was not bothered by it. Instead, he would actually celebrate the achievement.
Nevertheless, the core meaning of his questions got distorted when they reached everyone’s ears.
Everyone thought that Levi was upset because he lost ownership of Garrison Industry and felt helpless.
After all, it was impossible to snatch that back from Edmund.
“Sir, who’s in charge doesn’t matter as long as Garrison Industry prospers, right? On the grander scheme of things, you can say that Erudia is actually the real owner of Garrison Industry!”
Robed Slayer took the initiative to comfort Levi.
“That’s right, Boss. You’ve worked hard. Now it’s time for you to take a rest!”
The others chimed in.
“I heard someone wants to take Garrison Industry back. Is that right?”
At that exact moment, a voice was heard.
And Edmund suddenly appeared before them the very next second.
Behind him were the four divine generals.
“Sir, it’s not what you think! Boss was just curious!” Kirin and the lot immediately explained.
They were afraid that Levi and Edmund would get into a fight as it was not the first time it had happened.
“Is it? It didn’t feel that way, though. I was sure that someone wanted to take it back.”
