Chapter 1744

A group of men and women in suits came down of the jeep.

It looked like they were mostly office workers instead of martial artists and men with superpowers

“Who are you people?” Levi’s lips curled as he asked.

“We… We bear no ill-will, our honorable guest. We’re only here to talk,” said a man and a woman in front of the crowd with their hands raised.

“Yes, we’re just here to talk. There’s no point in going on with the fight!”

“Talk? Is there a need for that? Just get out of my way and let me take these two with me!”

“Sir, please listen to us.”

“Let’s make a deal.”

They looked at Levi cautiously.

“What deal?” Levi was curious.

“Sir, we can totally put this incident behind us and turn our hostility against each other around to become friends!”

“That’s true. There’s actually no grudge between us, so why the hassle?”

Levi smirked, “How so?”

“You don’t actually have to serve Erudia. Why don’t you join Zarain instead?”

“We promise you anything! Whatever you want, even becoming a king!”

“As long as you join Zarain, all your wishes can be fulfilled! Whether it be getting stronger, richer, or even obtaining more power! Anything you want!”

…

The two were professional negotiators and knew how to talk.

Anyone would get swayed by their collective effort if they were not careful.

It was then that Zarain’s plan was finally revealed.

If we can’t stop you, we just have to recruit you.

If Levi agreed, it would be killing two birds with one stone.

“Sure.” Levi snickered. “Anything I want, right?”

“Yes, anything! We’re the representatives of Shield, so we have the authority to fulfill any and all of your conditions!”

Everyone there was confident.

“Alright then.” Levi looked at them. “My request is fairly simple. Make me the Master of Zarain! Do that, and I’ll join you without question!”

Everyone was stunned by his proposal.

He wants to be the master of Zarain?

Oh my… the audacity!

That’s impossible!

“Sir, please don’t joke around. We are sincere about this!” Their tone turned cold.

“Who said anything about a joke? I’m being very honest here. Didn’t you say anything I wanted? I have told you what I want. Are you not going to fulfill it?” Levi questioned them in return.

“You’re stepping way out of line here!” The men from Shield were all infuriated.

“If you are not going to do it, scram!”

Levi swept his hand across the air, sending a shock wave towards the people from Shield and sent them flying, along with the car.

Then, Levi continued his march, signifying the end of the negotiation.

With that, Shield went into chaos.

They initially thought that the offer was one Levi could not reject, but they never expected Levi to put up such a condition.

Levi went on as the army resumed their mission to stop him.

“This won’t do! There’s no time left! He’ll leave Zarain in three hours!”

“Even if Byron and Jared are dead, we cannot let him leave!”

“What do we do? We need ideas! Quick!”

…

Time flew and there was one hour left before Levi make it to cross the border.

“We’re out of options! Let’s use that!”

“What? That? Are you all out of your mind?”

“It’s our only hope!”
