Chapter 2087

“Southern Lannister and the Northern Wolf Warrior, both hailed as the

pinnacle of martial prowess in Chanaea–who’s stronger?”

“I can’t wait to see them face off!”

“Yeah, but I hope they take down Shoiya’s Martial Saint first and then settle

who’s number one!”

The crowd was abuzz with anticipation. The question of who the strongest

warrior was might be a bit cliche, but it had an eternal appeal, sparking

people’s competitive nature and fascination.

“If you want to challenge me, Gwain, I’m ready anytime. Just don’t go

throwing dirt on my name!” Emmanuel’s calm, unflinching gaze showed he

didn’t consider Gwain a serious threat.

Back in Eldoria, he’d openly challenged Gwain, who hadn’t dared to accept.

ince coming to Zovince, Emmanuel had felt even more that Gwain feared

him, clinging to appearances out of sheer stubborn pride.

“You can’t deny it! This is far from over. We’ll meet again, and you’ll see!”

Gwain retorted. He wasted no time leaving, wary of any troublemakers trying

to stir up a fight between him and Emmanuel. Taking Wyatt and the others

with him, he departed, though some of his family members, including

Roderick, were clearly unimpressed with him. They followed him out but

quickly split ways, unwilling to associate with him further.

“Mr. Gwain, if I may speak honestly,” Wyatt spoke quietly, still loyal to Gwain.

“People are starting to believe you’re avoiding Emmanuel and Yorick becaus

you’re scared.”

Gwain’s already dark expression grew even stormier. Still, Wyatt continued,

You might be able to dodge them a few times, but eventually, you’ll have to

fight.”

“I know! I don’t need you to tell me that!” Gwain snapped, unable to hide his

frustration. His pride had long been festering with resentment. Grinding his

teeth, he muttered, “Once I get my hands on the second half of the Dragon

Tome and master it, I’ll be truly invincible. I won’t need to fear anyone!”

Wyatt looked at him in surprise. “Are you certain it’s real, Mr. Gwain? Can you

actually train with it?”

Gwain smirked confidently. “The method Yosef Harper taught me does

“It’s done and over. No point wasting time debating it. Now, if we want that

second half of the Dragon Tome, we’ll have to get it from Roselynn Lowe,”

Gwain’s eyes turned steely. “Even if… we use any means necessary!”

Meanwhile, Emmanuel left the hotel. Although he’d succeeded in preventing

the Chapman–Tanner alliance, the overall situation was still far from ideal.

Three of the Four Great Aristocratic Families of Zovince were now openly

hostile toward him, and the Chapman family’s support was tenuous at best,

depending on Nathan’s unpredictable loyalty.

remained a considerable challenge. He could only hope that his wife could

make breakthroughs in the West End. If they could manage to unseat Teddy

from his position as chairman of the Chamber of Commerce, their odds

ould improve significantly.

At the same time, at the windswept lake in the West End, Mackenzie stood by

the shore, watching the water in silence, waiting for news.

“Ms. Quillen, the carp shipment has arrived!” Lexi soon brought her good

news. “Using the Wolf Warrior Unit’s aircraft, we managed to transport over

two million carp from various parts of Nuthana, along with a few other fish!”

“Good!” Mackenzie nodded approvingly, giving instructions. “Get in touch with

Magnus and see what he wants to do next.”

“Yes, Ms. Quillen!” Lexi quickly dialed Magnus,

“No need to rush,” Magnus replied calmly. “We still have two days left before

he ten–day deadline. Plenty of time.”

“Magnus, stop playing games!” Lexi was visibly tense, even warning him,

“There are already people from both Riverhaven and the West End gathered

at the lake, waiting for us to dredge up billions in resources. If this fails, the

consequences will be unimaginable!”

“I know,” Magnus responded nonchalantly before hanging up.

Lexi was nearly tearing her hair out in frustration. It felt like he hadn’t said

anything useful at all. Little did she know that Magnus, along with Hattie, was

already en route to the West End, driving toward the lake.

“Magnus, Mackenzie is my only best friend. You really need to help her out

and not keep her on edge!” Hattie couldn’t help but remind him. She knew her

brother’s nature all too well–brilliant people often enjoyed keeping others

“Waiting a little longer won’t hurt. I’m here in person, aren’t I?” Magnus‘

self–assured grin added an unexpected charm to his otherwise ordinary

face.

“Stop the car!” he suddenly called out to the chauffeur, stepping out alone

the next moment. Hattie was confused at first but then noticed the woman

standing by a stalled car up ahead. She immediately understood.

Both Laura and Claudette turned, momentarily puzzled by the sight of an

ordinary–looking stranger. But as he adjusted his glasses and flashed a

confident, slightly mischievous smile, Laura immediately recognized him. “It’s

you–you’re alive!”

Magnus simply smiled casually.

Claudette, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Magnus Zelinsky, from

Zovince.”

“Zovince?” Claudette looked surprised. “Have we… met before?”

“Yes, indeed. We were childhood friends with a close bond that goes way

back,” Magnus said, adjusting his glasses with a sly smile.

Claudette turned to Laura, looking for confirmation from her.
