The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 1497

“No, that’s not what-”

Western Monk tried to tell the truth again, but Heracles tugged on his arm meaningfully.

Then, he steeled himself to fortify the lie. “Yes, that’s right! Together with the Suicide Squad, we finally managed to slay the Northern Demon.”

Eastern Beast spat out a mouthful of blood and lamented, “But thousands of our brothers-in-arms perished along with him. They were all good men.”

“Yes. They were indeed. At least half the credit must go to them.”

Southern Warrior feigned grief.

Ahem, Ahem…

Heracles kept coughing out blood.

“Finally, everything is over. The Northern Demon is dead!”

Western Monk swallowed back his words, forcing himself not to utter a single word.

Just like that, the Four Basilisks took all the credit for slaying the Northern Demon.

The army had arrived just in time to see the sky crack and the ground splitting open.

Also considering all the severe wounds covering the Four Basilisks and the total annihilation of the Suicide Squad, no one suspected a thing.

“Wait, I have a question. Wasn’t the Fusion Attack useless against the Northern Demon? So how did you kill him?” queried Azure Dragon.

“Are you doubting us? Who said it was useless? Our masters have done a lot of research for decades to create the Fusion Attack. How could it be useless?”

“We fought almost to our last breaths and you’re still doubting us? If we weren’t the ones who killed the Northern Demon, then who killed him? You guys?” yelled Eastern Beast.

“Well…” Azure Dragon was rendered speechless.

Indeed, other than the Four Basilisks, no one else present was capable of slaying the Northern Demon.

Winsor shot a glare at Azure Dragon. “Isn’t it obvious enough for you? They were the ones who slayed the Northern Demon!”

Then, he turned to the Four Basilisks and bowed deeply. “The four of you are the greatest heroes of Erudia! I am honored to be in your presence.”

“All hail the heroes of Erudia!”

“All hail the heroes of Erudia!”

The crowd chanted in unison.

Everyone gazed at the Four Basilisks with awe shining in their eyes.

Eastern Beast, Southern Warrior and Heracles basked in the feeling of being worshipped by thousands.
