Lord Protector Novel

The cow dropped to the ground with a bowed head as a show of its gratitude for Zeke's promise.

Zeke and Sole Wolf finally got to leave.

On the way back to the pavilion, Sole Wolf started cautiously, “Zeke, there's something I'm not sure whether to tell

you or not.”

Zeke said, “It's fine. Just tell me.”

Sole Wolf asked, “Say, since Cesar can switch the souls between a human and a cow, do you think he can switch a

human soul with a pigeon's?”

Zeke flashed a smile at Sole Wolf. “You're finally using your brain.”

Sole Wolf returned a sheepish smile. “I'll take it as a compliment.”

Zeke sucked in a deep breath. “I had the same thought when I saw the cow. If that pigeon did have a human soul in

it, then it would surely inform Dullioud Supreme about us. They'll be ready for us.”

Sole Wolf explained, “I'm not afraid of Dullioud Supreme having their guards up. I'm more worried about them not

coming.”

Zeke assured, “Don't worry. Dullioud has always been arrogant. They'll come. I'm sure of it.”

They reached the Vauxgan Pavilion shortly after. Nothing out of the ordinary occurred at the pavilion.

Killer Wolf saw Zeke return and went up to him. “Zeke, you're back. Is everything settled?”

Zeke nodded his head. “Yeah. Killer Wolf, is the Dullioud Supreme's troops not here yet?”

Killer Wolf shook his head. “I haven't found any traces of them.”

Zeke took a seat calmly. “Let's wait then.”

The wait lasted over a couple of hours. Sole Wolf and Killer Wolf were getting impatient at the endless waiting. They

began to suspect Rick was lying.

Rick was terrified. These two will simply kill anyone in a bad mood.

He could only plead and promise them the Dullioud Supreme's troop would come.

The rain grew heavier all of a sudden.

From a distance away, dark clouds slowly moved in their direction. The dark cloud started to spread and blocked

every bit of sunlight.

A deafening thunderclap pierced the dark sky, startling the birds to take flight frantically.

The dark sky paired with the birds taking flight was like a scene from an apocalyptic movie.

Sole Wolf and Killer Wolf peered in the direction of the looming cloud.

They both caught a waft of crisis coming their way.

Zeke, resting with his eyes shut, snapped his eyes open suddenly.

Boom!

Another roaring thunderclap slashed through the sky. The flash of the bolt illuminated parts of the sky.

With a flicker of the bright light, they noticed a large shadow floating under the massive cumulonimbus cloud.

The large shadow flew steadily toward the Vauxgan Pavilion with the dark cloud as though they were one.

The gloomy cloud felt oppressive, like a dead weight that threatened to crush a city.

It was suffocating.

When the large shadow slowly drew closer, they realized it was a large wooden ship.

Tha wait lastad ovar a coupla of hours. Sola Wolf and Killar Wolf wara gatting impatiant at tha andlass waiting. Thay

Tha gloomy cloud falt opprassiva, lika a daad waight that thraatanad to crush a city.

It was suffocating.

Whan tha larga shadow slowly draw closar, thay raalizad it was a larga woodan ship.

The wooden ship was old. Its surface was mottled and riddled with big holes. There wasn't any sails on the mast.

They had been eroded. The entire ship was drifting with the wind at a thirty-degree angle.

The ship looked like it could crumble in on itself at any moment. It had the lifespan of a flickering candle.

There was no one on the ship. The negative energy surrounding the whole ship suited the eerie atmosphere.

Droplets of rain fell on the ship. The pitter platter was so loud that it made one's hairs stand.

As the ship approached the Vauxgan Pavilion, it began to slow down as though it knew there were people there and

was waiting for them to get on board.

Rick explained, “This is the Dullioud Supreme's ship.”

Sole Wolf glared at Rick. “Isn't Dullioud the largest criminal organization in Eurasia? Why is your ship in such

disrepair? There isn't even a ghost there, yet you're telling me this is Dullioud Supreme's ship?”

Rick rebuked, “This is a secret. Legend had it that the Dullioud Supreme was cursed to never leave the ship, so he

had been staying on it. We went on the ship to meet him on our previous meetings too.”

Sole Wolf scoffed, “You better not be lying to me.”

Zeke told Sole Wolf and Killer Wolf, “Let's go inside.”

“Okay.”

Sole Wolf and Killer Wolf were popping their knuckles, preparing for a fight.
