His daughter’s life was hanging by a thread as she lay on the hospital bed… His wife had been bullied by her family…Liam Cole, the commander-in-chief of the Pendragon Warriors, was a man who had protected millions of people but had wronged his wife and daughter. After he returned to the city, he eliminated all obstacles and made his wife and daughter the happiest people in the world.
View MoreThe rest of the Carsons had the exact same thought as Leah. After all, they were the wealthiest and most influential family in Dernburg City, so they did not need a reason to do anything they wanted. To them, it did not matter what intentions Trent had, but all that mattered was that he was now dead, and it was Liam's doing. The thought of her husband and children's murderer standing just a few feet away from her sent anger coursing through her veins, and she could not hold her fury in any longer. She stared up at Liam, her bloodshot eyes crazed with hatred, and screamed, "Liam Cole! I don't care what you say—I'm going to make you and your entire family pay for your sins! I'm going to spill your blood over my family's graves!"Liam, however, was unfazed by this. He shook his head and replied, "Is that so? Do you even know who I am? Do you think you can lay any hands on me without repercussions?"Leah burst into a manic cackle, clearly amused by Liam's statement. Her contempt was ev
How could someone like him possibly command such power?Even Nash and Cirold, who had met their fair share of legendary fighters and warriors of their time, were equally stunned by this. Who would have thought that they would one day feel such power in the hands of a young man?Nash could not help but question the information he had been told about Liam's background. Could Liam be so much more powerful than what his background check came up with? Could he be hiding other things?Cirold was just as baffled. He could not help but wonder if everything they knew about this man had been wrong, and they had severely underestimated their opponent!The two of them exchanged dubious glances. Leah was so intimidated by Liam's display of rage that she clamped her mouth shut, terrified. Liam shot her a look so cold that she froze, mid-sentence, and her next words spilled out in a panicked stammer, "Wh…wha…what are you trying to do? I'm warning you, Liam, that you're standing right in my terr
Liam's searing aura made Nash pause in surprise. He was rather taken aback by this; not only did Liam display an inexplicably formidable aura, but he even stood his ground when coming face-to-face with an opponent significantly more powerful than he was.Nash was not the only one shocked by this. The rest of the Carsons were equally intimidated, not that they would admit it outright, but their expressions had changed from contempt to awe. However, Nash soon snapped out of his stupor, and a glimmer of malice flashed through his eyes. He stared at Liam, his eyes ablaze with cold rage, and said, "You fool! Arrogance will only bring you so far. Unfortunately for you, today is the day you meet your match! No one can save you now, young man! No one can stand a chance against the Carson family!"Liam shook his head, an amused smile playing on his lips. He did not seem at all bothered by Nash's statement and instead replied calmly, "I thought that the Carson family would turn out to be dif
One of the Carsons turned to stare at Liam with a contemptuous look. "So you're the good-for-nothing orphan that married into the Stones, huh? I didn't peg for such a hero wannabe—but you showing up at our door saves us the trouble of having to track you down!""He thinks he's a hero, but he's really an idiot! Who does he think we are? Let me tell you, punk, you've finally met your end!""You don't have to worry anymore, Leah. Now that he's brought himself right to our doorstep, we'll slit his throat and spill his blood on our floors. We will turn him into a statue and make him pay for his sins!""The audacity of this man to show up here after murdering our beloved family members! He's going to regret this in every last ounce of his being!"The Carsons did not seem to think Liam, Joseph, or Albert were tangible threats at all. Instead, they cast their disdainful glances all over them as though already sentencing them to death in their minds!The Carsons deemed what Liam had done t
A seething rage boiled in Nash's eyes. The audacity of Liam to outright disrespect them like this! Any act of terrorism on the Walkers was an indirect taunt to the Carsons' authority, and he could not allow anyone to get away with dishonoring their name!"Don't you worry, Leah. I will capture Liam Cole with my bare hands and avenge you!" Nash snarled.All of a sudden, the butler returned, looking rather panicked as he burst through the doors. "Sir, there are guests outside…"Nash furrowed his brows. "Guests? Who are they?"No one would show up on the Carsons' doorstep without first identifying themselves, so who could it be?The butler replied, panting, "I don't know, sir, but they don't look like locals. They seem like they're not from here or even Athenapolis at all."A scowl crossed Nash's face, clearly displeased at his time being wasted in such a manner. "Well, since they didn't call in to notify us beforehand, we shall not entertain them! Send them off!"The butler nodded,
Nash then turned to another who looked about his age, sitting just beneath him. He had a white goatee and was dressed in a suit similar to his. Although he was not sitting at the head of the room, one could not undermine his equally powerful aura. "Neil, you used to work as a government official in Willoughby, so you must have plenty of connections there. We need your help. We need you to employ the connections you have in Willoughby and find out who is the person responsible for the Walkers' downfall. I want everything there is to know about this, and I will make them all pay the price of their sins!" This man was none other than Neil Carson, Nash's younger brother who used to work in Willoughby but had since then retired from his post. He opened his eyes slowly, a menacing glint flashing through them. He then stood up with his hands behind his back and said to his brother, "Don't you worry, Nash, I'll get to the bottom of this. I watched Clora and Trent grow up like they were my
"I don't know who this Liam Cole fellow is, but who dares outrightly disrespect the Carson family shall face our wrath! I have gathered you all here today to demand justice for our beloved family members. We need to put our heads together and come up with a plan to get revenge on Liam Cole and the Stone family!"Nash was certain that Liam alone could not have wiped out the entire Walker clan himself. Therefore, he must have had someone more powerful working in the dark to back him up. Everyone knew that the Walkers, despite being in Drunham City, had intricate connections with the Carson family here in Dernburg City. Therefore, one would not even dream of messing with the Walkers, knowing that they had an even more powerful force behind them. However, the entire Walker clan got wiped out practically overnight. The worst part was, the Carson family did not hear of this until recently. This meant that whoever was behind the attack on the Walkers had powerful connections that managed t
Cirold strode over to Leah's side and helped her get to her feet, but nothing could hide his blatant anger as he said, "Leah, don't be too upset about this. Take care of yourself! Don't you worry, I'm sure I speak on behalf of the entire Carson family when I say we will not let the murderer get away with this!"My father and I will do everything in our power to avenge your husband and children's deaths. Whether it's Malcolm Lynch, Howard Mosier, or even the entire Stone family combined, we're not at all afraid of them! They shall soon feel our wrath!"Cirold was the third-born son of the Carson family and had an infamous reputation in Dernburg City. The firstborn and second-born sons of the Carson family, Cirold's elder brothers, was a government official and the major general of the Northern Biskeland War Zone respectively. In contrast, Cirold did not get into politics or military and instead chose to dabble in business. Aside from expanding the family business, Cirold also built up
Frederick was right—Liam was still a ranking above him and was the only five-star commander-in-chief that Biskeland had ever seen. Therefore, he still needed to show Liam respect despite not knowing what his intentions were. His chief-of-staff, Miles Leroy, bowed and replied, "Yes, sir!"Meanwhile, at Dernburg City Center, everyone else stayed behind at city hall, discussing the proceedings of the night, although Liam had left. Carson Mansion was a sprawling manor located on the other side of town, right at the borders of Dernburg City and Athenapolis. It spanned over a thousand acres and was renovated in an ancient Victorian style, with a pair of looming stone lion statues on either side of the black, European-style wrought-iron gates. Once one entered the gates, one was greeted by the sight of a massive fountain, in the center of which perched a platform that housed a marble statue of an angel. Circling past the fountain was a labyrinth-like maze of hedges, past which was the
