The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 3688

Chapter 3688 I Might Have Thought Too Much

Although Floyd might still lag behind Xylas in terms of combat prowess, Floyd already had what it took to escape unscathed. That was enough for Floyd to feel confident and proud.

He had improved by leaps and bounds over a short period, and Floyd felt no one in the entire base was his match now. His improvement earned him Gloria’s acknowledgment, which made Floyd even more optimistic and proud.

“Gloria, thank you for putting aside time to train me,” Floyd said gratefully. “Don’t mention it. You’re talented, to begin with, or else you wouldn’t be able to reach this level with just me teaching you,” Gloria replied, waving her hand.

Floyd’s face lit up when he found out that Gloria thought highly of him.

“By the way, Floyd, you should return to the base soon. Your master and the others might worry about you. I’ll be able to keep tabs on any development in the Ecclesiastic Order over here. I’ll immediately inform you about their plans if there’s anything,” Gloria added.

Touched, Floyd teared up upon hearing that, yet he suddenly felt bitter and spiteful as he recalled how Levi had injured Gloria without first finding out about the truth.

More precisely, he felt a deep sense of hostility toward Levi.

“Floyd, don’t blame Master. He must’ve attacked me because he believed someone’s lies,” Gloria commented knowingly.

Her words drove the wedge deeper between Floyd and Levi.

As she expected, Floyd’s face gloomed when he heard her.

Everyone’s making things hard for her, yet Gloria’s still so understanding. Levi, you’d better not cross the line!

With that in mind, Floyd said goodbye to Gloria and left for the base.

When he saw that everyone at the base appeared anxious and frightened, he felt even more confident in himself.

In fact, the nervousness and stress he felt earlier completely dissipated when he saw how fearful they were.

“I’ll be more influential here now that I’ve become powerful.”
