Chapter 99
Summon Of The Sword
Homer had searched online extensively, but all he had learned was that the Lilac Heart Weed was an ornamental plant.
It had no medicinal properties and was definitely not something Sean wanted.
âThis Lilac Heart Weed is a herb thatâs exclusively found in the northwest.
âIt is indeed an uncommon sight in our region.â
Sean frowned, his tone of voice slightly exasperated.
It was most unfortunate that the Lilac Heart Weed was an irreplaceable component.
If it was any other herb, Sean would be able to figure something out, probably by exchanging it with another herb with similar properties.
However, since Lilac Heart Weeds were the main component of the entire medicinal course, how could it be easily swapped out?
âMr. Lennon, do you know what this herb looks like?â
Homer Larson nodded as he asked for a specific description from Sean.
âMr. Lennon, Iâll take note of its appearance on my side as well and have some people look for it.â
Hayden Luke heard them and volunteered to look for it too.
âIâm counting on the both of you, then.
âThis is a very important herb to me.â
The two of them were pleasantly surprised by the way Sean was speaking to them, and they nodded affirmatively.
After they parted ways, Sean went straight home.
Willow and Kent had already gone to work at that time.
Fion Wilson would not stay at home alone, so there should have been no one at home at that moment.
However, when Sean pushed the gate open, he saw an uninvited guest.
In the patio, there was a smirking young man sat on a chair, his feet casually dangling off it like he was the rightful owner of the Quinn villa.
There were six burly, stoicâlooking bodyguards behind him as well.
It was Quill Zimmer, that annoyingly persistent man.
âYo, the veg is back!â
When Sean pushed the gate open, Quill saw him and let out a hoot.
However, he quickly corrected himself. âMy bad, what a bad habit of mine! Youâre no longer a veg now, right, cripple?â
Quillâs tone and the expression on his face were heavy with mockery.
âYouâre just marching into my home uninvited? Are you sick of living already?â
Sean pushed his wheelchair slowly toward Quill.
âHah, your home?
âYouâre a cripple no better than a parasite to Willow. The audacity you must have to call this place your home!â
Quill scoffed coldly as he scanned Sean up and down.
Seanâs face was stoic, iciness filling his eyes.
âHaha, you donât know, do you?
âAunt Fion gave me a key to this house a long time ago, and thatâs why I can come in and out of this place as I please.â
As Quill was speaking, he picked up a bunch of keys on the table and waved it around in the air.
âOh, right, there are also keys to Willowâs room in here⦠Hehe!
âWhat do you think Aunt Fion meant when she gave me that?â
Quillâs eyes were filled with mockery and disdain.
So what if Willowâs your fiance?
I have the keys to her room, and I can enter it any time I want. Are you mad about that?
Indeed, as soon as Sean heard it, coldness emitted from his eyes.
âIâm only going to say this once.
âSo listen up, Quill Zimmer.â
Sean looked at Quill and spoke slowly.
âNumber one, return the Nineâstar Armor and Nation Defending Sword to me 24639 without a scuff or a scratch.
âNumber two, leave Willow alone.â
Once Sean was done, Quill burst out into laughter after being briefly stunned Clank!
Quill slammed the bunch of keys back down on the table.
âDo you really think youâre something, Sean Lennon?
âIâll tell it to your face today: I took your things, and I also wanna touch your woman!
âIf you know whatâs good for you, scram and leave the Quinns before they chase you out of her!
âOnly I, Quill Zimmer, am worthy of being with Willow Quinn!â
Quill lowered himself slightly and towered over Sean.
âIf you donât know any better, then donât blame me for being harsh.â
Quillâs expression was icy cold as he looked at Sean scornfully.
He still held a grudge against Sean for slapping him last time.
Today, he had brought six bodyguards with him.
He did not believe that Sean would still dare to make a move against him!
âAre you seriously sick of living?â
Sean narrowed his eyes, a glint of murderous intent flashing in them.
âHaha! Youâre still clueless, arenât you?
âIâm about to propose to Willow in front of the entirety of River City.
âEven Old Madam Quinn supports me. So, what do you think? Are the Quinns going to chase you out?
âSay, do you think Willow will want flowers and diamond rings, or will she still want a cripple like you?â
Quill looked down on Sean like a mighty ruler to a servant.
He would do all he could to attack Seanâs dignity so much that he would voluntarily leave the Quinns.
This way, it would save Quill loads of trouble.
âPeople say women are like clothesâ¦
âArenât you insistent that Willowâs your woman?
âIâll just wear your clothes and f*ck your woman, then. Hahaha!â
Quill cackled.
Suddenly. Sean reached out and yanked Quill down by his collar.
Whoosh!
His arm quickly shot out and slapped Sean without hesitation. (2 Slap!
A resounding, crisp slap.
Quillâs laughter choked in his throat as his cheek burned from the slap.
The force of the slap was so great it had made him twirl around twice from where he was standing.
âDo you ever learn?
âHave you really forgotten the last time I slapped you?â
Sean retracted his arm slowly and spoke faintly.
âSince you donât want any of your dignity when I so mercifully spared you some, mark my words!
âI will have the head of the Zimmer family kneel before me and return my things to me with reverence, handing them over to me with both his hands.â
