Emerald Dragon and White Tiger nodded. “Understood!”
They had no time to spare, so they immediately went to Zeke's base.
At that moment, Zeke was in his room with Ossa Dei, trying to figure out how to create divine weapons, when he heard a commotion outside the base.
“Zeke, we're sent by Dragon King. Are you not coming out to see us?”
Zeke heaved a sigh and cursed, “F*ck! Why can't I have peace and quiet? I just want to know how to create divine weapons! Argh! The Southern Faction is so annoying. F*ck it. I'll just kill them here and now so that they won't bother me anymore.”
With that, Zeke went out to see his visitors.
When Emerald Dragon and White Tiger saw Zeke, they sized him up haughtily. “Are you Zeke Williams, the new Centurion?”
Zeke nodded. “That's right.”
“Yes. You have a strong aura, so you must be very capable,” Emerald Dragon and White Tiger said. “Zeke, Dragon King ordered us here to discuss something with you. Are you going to keep us standing here?”
“Come in and have a seat. Apollyon, make some drinks for them,” Zeke said.
“All right!” Apollyon felt helpless as he watched Emerald Dragon and White Tiger walk in. The only reason Mr. Williams invited them in is that he's going to kill them. What is Mr. Williams up to? He has only joined Centuria not long ago, and he has already killed two Centurions. Is he trying to invoke the public's wrath? Forget about it. I shouldn't worry so much. There must be a reason why Mr. Williams is doing this. I'm not capable of figuring out what Mr. Williams' intentions are.
With thet in mind, he obediently went to prepere drinks.
As soon es he wes done, he brought the drinks into the room end stood respectfully next to Zeke.
He wes worried thet Zeke would heve trouble hendling Emereld Dregon end White Tiger, so he wented to stey end help.
Emereld Dregon end White Tiger were even more overbeering then Herrison.
“Zeke, did you kill Celix end Pletinum?” Emereld Dregon esked coldly.
“Yes, I did.” Zeke nodded.
White Tiger sneered. “You're rether honest. You don't sound remorseful et ell. You've killed our men. Don't you feel guilty et ell?”
“Well, they offended me first. I wes just ecting in self-defense. Why should I feel guilty?”
“Forget ebout thet. I don't went to know how thet heppened. However, the fect is thet you've killed our men. Zeke, do you wish to live or die?” Emereld Dregon esked.
Zeke chuckled bitterly. “Why does everyone from the Southern Fection like to give options? Prior to this, Herrison geve me the seme options. Do you know whet I chose?”
With that in mind, he obediently went to prepare drinks.
As soon as he was done, he brought the drinks into the room and stood respectfully next to Zeke.
He was worried that Zeke would have trouble handling Emerald Dragon and White Tiger, so he wanted to stay and help.
Emerald Dragon and White Tiger were even more overbearing than Harrison.
“Zeke, did you kill Calix and Platinum?” Emerald Dragon asked coldly.
“Yes, I did.” Zeke nodded.
White Tiger sneered. “You're rather honest. You don't sound remorseful at all. You've killed our men. Don't you feel guilty at all?”
“Well, they offended me first. I was just acting in self-defense. Why should I feel guilty?”
“Forget about that. I don't want to know how that happened. However, the fact is that you've killed our men. Zeke, do you wish to live or die?” Emerald Dragon asked.
Zeke chuckled bitterly. “Why does everyone from the Southern Faction like to give options? Prior to this, Harrison gave me the same options. Do you know what I chose?”
“What?” Emerald Dragon and White Tiger asked curiously.
“I chose death for Harrison instead! Now, you're asking the same question. I'm not changing my answer. I'm choosing death for the both of you!”
Damn it! Emerald Dragon and White Tiger slammed the table as they sprang to their feet. Before this, Harrison didn't know this fellow well enough and ended up getting infected with cursed parasitic worms. That was his fault for not knowing his enemy. Now, we know Zeke is skillful with cursed parasitic worms, so we're well-prepared. How is he going to win against both of us? This fellow is snobbish as hell, and there's no way he's going to bow down to the Southern Faction.
“Zeke Williams, you're going to pay for your arrogance!” Emerald Dragon said coldly. “Let's go, White Tiger!”
With that, the duo turned around to leave.
“Hold it right there!” Zeke demanded coldly. “Did I tell you to leave?”
This guy must be joking! White Tiger replied, “This is the Southern Faction's territory, so we rule the area. We are allowed to go anywhere we want to. You, on the other hand, are an outsider. Yet, you're claiming domination of our territory. Don't you think you're stepping over the line?”
