The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 3859

Chapter 3859 He Fears Us

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice to find Geraint slowly approaching with two elders by his side. The person who spoke was a burly old man who stood in the middle.

He was dressed in black robes emblazoned with the Eclipse crest that resembled a lifelike regal dragon. “This is the Eclipse Sect Leader, Walden Slabey,” said Primo as he hurriedly introduced the man to Gloria.

Gloria was quite stunned as she didn’t expect to meet such a big shot so soon. Even a vice sect leader like Geraint had to behave with the utmost courtesy and respect around Walden. “What do you think, Lord Slabey?” asked Geraint respectfully, humbling himself to ask for Walden’s advice.

In a deep voice, Walden replied, “As I see it, the man has been scared off after seeing so many fighters from Eclipse gathered here. The reason he so brazenly showed himself previously is that he looks down on Void Sect. He is proven to be nothing but a useless man who bullies the weak and fears the strong!”

The crowd were instantly enlightened. They had an incorrect preconception that the mysterious fighter was someone formidable because his every action showed that he was an extremely powerful and fearless fighter.

Because of this, they never considered other possibilities. “Even if the Paladins of Eclipse are powerful, they aren’t as powerful as the many elite fighters of Void Sect.”

“You’re right, Lord Slabey. Or else, why would that man have slaughtered so many people?”

“He left no survivors because he’s afraid that the Paladins would return to Eclipse and tell the others about it, thus revealing his identity!”

“With so many of us gathered here, he definitely won’t make any rash moves. I bet he’s scared!”

All the fighters at the scene were emboldened by their assumptions, no longer dispirited. As it turned out, even a strong fighter like him would experience fear.

With this revelation in mind, everyone’s worries faded away in an instant, and they soon regained their much-needed confidence and morale.

“Glory to Eclipse!”

“Glory to Lord Slabey!”

“We’ve won!”

Cheers erupted among the crowd.

Seeing that, Walden nodded approvingly. This was the outcome he desired.

With so many Paladins murdered by the mysterious fighter, Eclipse’s youthful generation suffered heavy casualties as a result.
