Chapter 929
Even After Death
It was a nearly insurmountable challenge for Connor.
He was still so small. It was devastating for him both physically and mentally.
The tall and slender boy had a few other kids at his side. He seemed to be the leader of the group.
The boyâs frame was slender, and his collarbone was very pronounced.
It was clear that he had a rough life and was a little malnourished. But the boy didnât possess the
naivete of kids his age.
His eyes reminded Olivia of an alpha male of a wolf pack. They were filled with ruthlessness and
authority.
âThe kidâs name is Titus. He might be young, but heâs an orphan we found on the battlefield up north.
âHe was eating corpses for sustenance when we found him. He often had to fight against vultures for
food.
Olivia gagged at the thought. âHe ate human meat!â
âRotten meat, to be precise. Humans would do anything to survive. He would have eaten dirt if he had
to. Titus was the name he gave himself..
âHe never knew his parents. He was on the verge of death when we found him. He was infected with
several illnesses, too,
âHe was sent here for training right after he recovered. Heâs also the leader of the kids here. Do you
know why he was bullying Connor?â
âHe wanted to be the Alpha, but Connor didnât acknowledge his authority?â
âThatâs true. Connor is still young, but he knows what his goal is. He will never admit defeat so easily.
âHe didnât submit, so Titus wanted a chance to put him in his place.â
After hearing the explanation, Olivia was curious about the decision Connor would make.
Titus crossed his arms and had a mocking and cruel smile on his face.
âIâm pretty curious. Which wealthy family are you from? What did you do to end up here? Even the
canteen
lady kept food for you. You donât deserve special treatment!â
Titus didnât know Connorâs identity. All he knew was Connor was completely different from the other
kids here.
Connor had pale and tender skin and a better build than most kids his age. He was unlike the rest of
them, who looked malnourished.
So. Connor got the nickname âYoung Masterâ as soon as he got here. He lowered his head to look at
the lunchbox and food scattered on the floor.
No one could see his expression clearly.
After a while, Connor said in a deep tone, âPick it up.â
He kept his fists, which were red from the cold, at his side. He was still just a kid. Olivia felt bad for him
when she looked at him.
Titus picked his ear and said, âWhat did you say? I didnât catch it.â
Faced with Titusâ mockery, Connor stood up abruptly and swung his fist at Titusâ face. His movement
was so sudden and decisive that Titus was hit before he could react.
This was the first time Titus saw Connor angry.
Connor was shorter than him but exuded a strong presence.
He was like a leopard. His movements were swift, vicious, and precise. That punch made Titus bleed.
from the corner of his mouth.
âAlright. You dare to hit me? I wonât hold back anymore, then.â
Brawls were strictly forbidden there.
Connor had broken the rules, so Titus didnât have to hold back anymore. He pounced at Connor like a
hungry wolf.
Connor was smaller than him. So, Titus was able to get him on the ground immediately.
Titus mounted Connorâs waist and started swinging his fists.
âMy son! My baby!â
Connor didnât lose his will to fight after being punched a few times.
He managed to turn around and sit on Titus. Then, he began to swing at Titusâ face.
âLook at him. Our son is not a loser. Titus is several years older than him and has killed people before,
but Connor didnât back downâ¦â
Ethan was still praising Connor, but when Olivia heard that Titus had killed before, she couldnât help but
