The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 1505

“How disappointing, Levi!”

“We would never have expected that you would show up to steal credit during this time!”

“Tens of thousands of men had witnessed the Four Basilisks triumph over the Northern Demon with their very eyes, so how would you have us believe that you were the one who killed him?”

“We’ve groomed you for so long, Levi, and even made you the Crown King! To think you could come around and try to steal credit for yourself!”

Those in attendance were uproarious, and saw to it that their dismay with Levi was made known.

The notion that the Four Basilisks killed the Northern Demon became the canonical narrative ever since the four had been proclaimed as heroes by the billions of people in Erudia.

For Levi to tell them otherwise would be to fly in the face of everything that everyone had come to believe, so their perturbation and disbelief were to be expected.

“To be honest, Levi, there was only one reason why you weren’t sent against the Northern Demon, and that is that you weren’t his match. The Fusion Attack of the Four Basilisks was meant to defeat him.”

There was a moment of silence before Levi snorted.

The Fusion Attack was completely ineffective against the Northern Demon!

“The Crown King? We know how good you are, as you’ve already showcased your talent and did Erudia a great honor at Mount Drago!”

“But surely you can’t show up like this and rob our disciples of their just reward?”

“May I ask what have you done in the battle against the Northern Demon? Have you fought, bled, or been wounded in it?”

“Everyone saw for themselves that it was our disciples who slew the Northern Demon, so how could you come in here and claim credit for that? Must you assume credit for everything before you can feel satisfied?”

The Four Hellhounds glared at Levi, aggrieved on behalf of their own disciples.

“The slaying of the Northern Demon may be an unprecedented honor, but surely you don’t have to try to claim that for yourself?”

“Besides, you’ve already made a grievous error in allowing all the Avengers to escape. Not only are you not asking for forgiveness, you are also demanding praise?”

“I’ve never seen a young man like you? To think that I used to think quite highly of you!”
