Chapter 2902 The Opposite
“We came here for the Poison Handbook. If you give that to us, we’ll leave right away,” Dr. Erebus announced with a chuckle.
However, his chuckle sounded odd to everyone.
Is it really that simple? All they want is the Poison Handbook?
Similar looks of disbelief were on everyone’s faces.
Even the Deities were doubting Dr. Erebus’ words.
Suddenly, something occurred to Dr. Erebus. His lips curled up as he said, “Oh, right. We didn’t come empty-handed. Here’s a gift in exchange for the Poison Handbook.”
Pfft!
Hearing his words, everyone tutted silently in exasperation.
Usually, people would approach in a diplomatic manner before resorting to brute force.
However, it was the opposite for Levi and Dr. Erebus.
Levi had slaughtered everyone who tried to stop him before trying to reason things out.
“A gift?” someone blurted out.
“Yes!” Dr. Erebus answered.
He then tossed the bag with him forward.
Four severed heads fell to the ground, and blood splattered everywhere.
Everyone inhaled sharply when they realized what those were.
Fear clawed up their throats.
Even the Deities weren’t spared.
This proved to show that they weren’t really Deities, for Deities wouldn’t be afraid of anything.
“I-Isn’t this Hachiga Shunsuke? A-And that’s Joten Kyudai! Oh, dear…”
“They are the four Deities of Black Dragon Hall!”
Most people managed to recognize the severed heads.
Who the hell is he? Why did he offer Black Dragon Hall’s Deities’ heads as a gift?
In truth, it wasn’t a gift; it was a display of Levi’s power.
Everyone, including the Deities, turned to look at the man in question.
If something else had happened, they would be asking about the culprit who had chopped the Deities’ heads off and where the heads came from.
However, after seeing Levi cutting down Masuda in less than a second, they knew it was him behind this.
Since Levi was capable enough of slaughtering the four Deities of Black Dragon Hall, it proved that he was extremely powerful.
Despite having over ten Deities here, everyone couldn’t help but fear him.
No one knew the extent of his combat prowess.
In fact, they were aware that they would have to risk their lives to defeat him.
It would be great if they could defeat him. But the consequences of them failing, however, would mean the end of the Imperial family of Raysonia.
Dr. Erebus guffawed. “Believe it or not, I’m actually doing this for your own good. Hurry up and give us the Poison Handbook. Otherwise, the consequences will be dire. If you don’t give it to us, he’ll take your lives for sure!”
Dr. Erebus knew Levi wasn’t lying, and that Levi would kill everyone here if they refused to give the Poison Handbook to him.
Hence, he was trying to help them out.
Otherwise, they would all end up dead as a result of offending Levi.
At once, the Deities of the imperial family of Raysonia felt conflicted.
If they decided to fight against Levi, they might end up dead.
If they decided not to fight him, however, they would feel humiliated.
The imperial family of Raysonia and the Deities would be insulted.
How they wished they could take Levi’s life.
The ten Deities decided to summon all thirty over Deities to defeat Levi together.
They had no choice but to risk their lives.
Brimming with energy, they were prepared to go all out in the battle.
At that exact moment, a voice rang out. “Stop! Please, hold on a moment!”
Shortly after, a few men hurried over to them.
They held a delicate box made of wood in their hands.
After coming to a stop before Levi, they said, “Sir, thank you for your gift. The imperial family of Raysonia loved it! Here is the Poison Handbook. It is all right if you don’t want to be friends with us as long as you don’t treat us as enemies!”
The imperial family of Raysonia had caved in and offered the Poison Handbook to Levi.
The sight of the heads of the Black Dragon Hall’s Deities and the death of Masuda had forced them to cower into submission.
They had no choice but to give in.
If they were to go all out, it would put the entire imperial family of Raysonia at risk.
The Poison Handbook was important, but it wasn’t as important as their lives.
