Chapter 1055
Severin glanced at the people in front of him. He said with a faint smile, “I’ll spare your lives if you hand over any spiritual herbs that are at least second-grade or higher. Just place them on the ground.”
Everyone was overjoyed, and they immediately took out the herbs that they had on them. None of them dared to pull a fast one on Severin because they knew that they would be facing the prospect of death if Severin checked each one of them. Severin was pleased to see the herbs, and he used his powers to levitate more than a hundred of those herbs.
After putting them safely away, he said to the people, “You may leave. I hereby declare that the Mount Blade Gang shall now cease to exist. I leave it to all of you to disband yourselves!”
“Thank you for not killing me!” Everyone who was kneeling on the ground stood up and left in despair.
Hamish, Richard, and the others were completely shocked by what they had seen. Those six strong men were considered to be the strongest individuals within the gang, yet Severin made easy work of them. Hamish glanced at Richard. He placed his palm on his chest and said with a smile, “Your daughter has found a very good boyfriend, Richard. Your family will have nothing to worry about in the future!”
Richard was a little awkward after receiving such praise. He wondered if he should explain the misunderstanding and tell Hamish that Severin merely pretended to be Chelsea’s boyfriend. On second thought, he felt a little embarrassed if that were to happen, so he could only smile awkwardly at them.
However, Hamish’s next remark brought joy to Richard. As we have heard earlier, Mister Severin has already allowed the Mount Blade Gang’s property to be divided between our two families. Both your family and mine would have to forge closer ties in the future.”
Richard had long wanted to establish connections with the mayor but never had the chance to do so. It was therefore a bit of a surprise that Hamish would say something like that to him.
He immediately smiled. “Yes, you’re right, Mister Hamish. We should cooperate more in the future!” Richard then glanced at Severin and thought to himself, ‘My family would prosper even more in the future if he was Chelsea’s real boyfriend. It’s such a shame that he doesn’t see her in that way.”
“Now that everything is settled, it’s time you instruct your men to clear this place and seize their assets!” Severin came out and smiled at them.
“Thank you, Mister Severin!” Both Hamish and Richard thanked him.
“What will you do next? Are you still going to look for Canis Hall?” Chelsea asked Severin after some thought.
