“What?” Levi gasped.
He was so startled by the news that he hurriedly stepped on the brakes.
Levi stared at Abigail in disbelief, still unable to process the news about her getting married.
He had always seen her as a little girl, yet now she was talking about marriages.
Not wanting to probe further, Levi pulled himself together and continued driving.
After all, Abigail had every right to pursue love and happiness, and he shouldn’t be interfering with it.
The next day, as promised, Levi took Abigail to Wildefield.
When the sisters finally met, there was naturally a lot to catch up on.
With Forlevia nowhere to be seen, Levi could only wait around while Zoey and Abigail chatted away.
Just then, a familiar figure caught his attention.
Jared was striding haughtily while being flanked by a group of people fawning over him.
The venue might be full of Supreme class warriors, but Jared was undoubtedly the center of attention.
Even Avery, the Governor of Wildefield, was beside him like a puppy following its owner.

Not even Levi could fathom what was happening.
He knew all about Jared’s background, which made it even more of a mystery as to how Jared had come to achieve
his current status.
How on earth did he do it?
When Jared locked eyes with Levi, he decided to walk toward him with the crowd still hot on his heels.
Distracted by the commotion, Zoey and Abigail too turned around to look.
When she saw Jared walking toward them, Zoey gaped in utter shock. “Jared? What are you doing here?”
He’s just an ordinary man. What business can he possibly have in Wildefield?
“Yes, I’ve dropped by to take a look,” Jared replied with an icy smile before beckoning for Avery.
“What can I do for you, Mr. Schmidt? I’m at your service!”
Avery’s reaction was a jaw-dropping moment as everyone stared wide-eyed at the scene in front of them.
Avery had his head lowered and was quick to make his way toward Jared with a smile.
With such a blatant display of bootlicking, no one doubted that Avery was fawning over Jared.
“Zoey is my good friend. I’m sure you know what to do?”
Without hesitation, Avery replied, “Of course, I understand. Any friend of Mr. Schmidt will be a distinguished guest in
Wildefield!”
Even more shell-shocked than before, everyone could only look on in silence.
Nobody could believe that Avery would extend such special treatment to an ordinary man.
Zoey, however, was quite possibly the most stunned.
Is he still the nerdy bookworm I used to know?
Who is he exactly, and why does he have Avery eating out of his hand?
Unbeknownst to everyone, it was never Avery’s intention to humiliate himself like he just did, but Jared was just too
powerful to ignore.
Jared currently had a group of warriors by his side, eight of whom were Rank Five Supreme class warriors.
There was also news that a handful of Rank Six Supreme class warriors had pledged allegiance to him.
Even if the old Governor were to stage a comeback, he still wouldn’t be a match to Jared’s combined powers. And if
Jared got angry, who knows if he might deploy his warriors to destroy Wildefield?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs such, Avery had no choice but to tread carefully around him.
Trembling, Zoey asked, “Jared, what’s all this about?”
With a smug smile, Jared replied, “Remember when I said I’m not afraid of any Supreme class warriors? I wanted to
prove to you that I wasn’t lying. I can even easily crush Wildefield if I wanted to!”
Avery instantly nodded his head and chimed in, “That’s right. Given Mr. Schmidt’s abilities, he’s able to crush
Wildefield anytime.”
Looks of disbelief were once again on everyone’s faces.
An ordinary man possessing immense power was unheard of, yet even Avery seemed to be afraid of Jared.
“Come with me,” Jared said as he gazed at Zoey.
When Zoey instinctively looked at Levi, Jared noticed it and smiled. “Let them come along too!”
Curious to find out what Jared was up to, Levi accepted his invitation and followed him to a secluded spot.
Once there, Jared broke into a smile. “Zoey, do you know what’s my status now?”
Levi returned with a smile and interrupted, “What?”
“I only have to say the word, and I’ll become the great defender of Erudia! I’ll be highly revered!”
