Chapter 524 A Challenge
Upon seeing Maximus‘ seemingly serious demeanor, Emrys was immediately amused. He dragged the young man outside the Langford family’s residence and said, “If you have something to say, spit it out!”
Maximus, with a cunning look, scanned his surroundings.
After ensuring that no one was around, he whispered, “I did this to prevent your identity from being exposed. Look at this news.”
Maximus took out his phone, opened a news page, and handed it to Emrys, saying, “I know you rarely read the news, Rys. You definitely haven’t seen this article.”
Emrys quickly skimmed through it.
The news story was about an Atharian named Wilson who claimed to have achieved Divinity and boldly declared his intention to challenge the Sky Devourer Lord of Chanaea. The location for this audacious challenge was set on a small island in the Pollerton Ocean.
The coordinates of the island were detailed in the article.
Due to the time difference between longitudes, Wilson didn’t specify an exact time, only a rough date. About a week later, he would be on this island, waiting for the Sky Devourer Lord for three days.
If the Sky Devourer Lord didn’t show up within three days, he would be considered nothing but a coward.
This was purely an act of provocation born out of ignorance, much like how certain experts from certain provinces claimed that the people in Chanaea couldn’t afford eggs benedict.
Emrys had heard of such things before, but he had never bothered to pay any attention to them. Otherwise, if he had to fight every time someone provoked him, it would have been troublesome.
Only when those people went too far by encroaching upon the borders of Chanaea would Emrys let them experience the terror of the Sky Devourer Lord, even if it meant marching all the way to their national capital to slay them.
As for these clowns, there was absolutely no need to pay them any attention.

The Thirty–six Sky Generals of the Sky Devourer Palace had grown weary of bothering the Empyrean Lord with such trivial news.
Therefore, the information from Maximus held no significance for Emrys.
Upon seeing Emrys‘ expression of disdain, Maximus immediately became anxious and said, “Rys, I think this Wilson is not as simple as he seems. Many social media platforms used by other countries have commented that his Divinity is real.”
Emrys extended his finger, lightly tapping Maximus‘ forehead as he said, “Media is something to be observed, not believed. Many things aren’t as they seem. However, Wilson’s timing couldn’t be better.”
If it had been in the past, Emrys wouldn’t have bothered to deal with such a clown.
However, at that moment, he had a better idea.
Maximus excitedly asked, “Rys, why do you say it’s just the right time for that Wilson to appear? Are you planning to teach him a lesson?”
Emrys said with a smile, “Of course, not only do we need to teach him a lesson, but we also need to do it in an absolutely sensational manner.”
“Rys, you’re really amazing!” Maximus‘ emotions grew increasingly intense, his eyes radiating a brilliant light. He asked eagerly, “Can I go see it?”
“Ask your sister!”
“Rys…”
“Shut up! Hurry back to Jipsdale University and stop frequenting the Langford residence without reason. You’re not one of them.”
“Oh!”
Although Maximus was only slightly younger than Emrys, he dared not offend Emrys‘ authority. With his head hung low, he had no choice but to leave the place.
A glint flashed in Emrys‘ eyes after Maximus had left.
Emrys then promptly dialed an extra encrypted contact number, delegating a few tasks.
Not long after, the media in Chanaea went into a frenzy.

Various international forces also instantly reacted covertly.
That was because the Sky Devourer Lord agreed to Wilson’s challenge and was preparing to head to a specific island in the Pollerton Ocean at the agreed time to engage in combat with him. He didn’t mind the presence of international media broadcasting the event live.
