The Protector (The Return Of The God of War) novel Chapter 922

The Return of the God of War Chapter 921

“Go with your son, Emma. Thank you for your hard work,” affirmed the team leader.

Levi then gave the man an earnest glance to show him his gratitude.

“Let’s go, Mom.”

The son supported his mother, and the two were ready to go home along with Zoey and Sylas.

Emma was surprised to see such a beautiful woman with them.

“This is Zoey, your daughter-in-law.” introduced Levi with a smile.

“I’m so sorry for what you’ve been through, Emma!” Zoey’s eyes had already reddened from all her crying.

After briefly introducing Sylas to Emma, they returned to the courtyard.

Emma had dreamt of seeing her son again for nearly thirty years, and she was willing to die for it no less. However, she also understood that she could never leave Margo City.

She never expected anyone to find her, much less to see her son again.

Still, her dream came true, and her son appeared before her very two eyes. He had even brought her daughter-in-law along.

The tears never stopped flowing down Emma’s face on their way home, but they were tears of joy.

“Levi, how did you know that I was here?” asked Emma curiously, for she was certain that the Garrisons had made it impossible for anyone to have found her.

“I received some help.”

On the way home, the mother felt like she had a multitude of questions to ask her son.

When Emma returned to the courtyard and saw the tombstone, her face turned grim. “Levi, don’t mind this.”

Emma then covered the engraving on the tombstone with her body.

“It’s okay, Mom. You don’t have to do that. I know that my name is on it.”

The mother’s face fell because she would rather have kept her son in the dark about it.

After getting inside the house, Emma wanted to serve her guests. Nonetheless, Zoey stopped her.

“Allow me to do so.”

“I’m so happy, Levi! Not only has my dream come true, rather, you’ve also found yourself such a kind and beautiful wife. Now, I can die without regrets.”

“You still have a good life ahead of you, Mom. I’ll make sure that you become the happiest mother in the world!” promised Levi as he held his mother’s hands tightly.

“Seeing you is enough for me,” responded Emma with a smile.

“Mom, have you ever thought of leaving?”

“I can’t do that. Didn’t you see the tombstone? They’ll kill you if I leave this place.”

“Are they using that rock to keep you here?”

“No. They’ve also got people watching me, and they’ll never allow me to step foot out of Margo City.”

The Return of the God of War Chapter 922

Emma continued, “It’s not just Margo City. For almost thirty years, I was only allowed to move within this block. They warned me that if I ever stepped out of the boundary, I’d receive a serious beating.”

Levi widened his eyes so much that they could almost drop out. “What? You were only allowed to move within this block for almost thirty years?”

What’s worse than being imprisoned in a city for almost thirty years is being confined to a single block. Those ruthless scumbags!

“Yes. The Garrisons had ordered the people in Margo City to imprison me here. To make it foolproof, they deliberately narrowed the range down to just this block.” Emma sighed.

When Levi heard her words, rage pulsed through his veins, and a murderous intent flashed across his eyes.

“Emma, have you been a sanitation worker all these years?” The thought of it broke Zoey’s heart.

“Yes. They control everything that I do, including my job. I was only allowed to be a sanitation worker because they’d wanted me to struggle,” replied Emma with a nod, who then smiled at the tearful Zoey. “I was fine, though. On top of my salary, scavenging around was enough to help me get by.”

Even so, everybody else could see how things really were, for it was impossible to forget seeing what Emma was willing to do for fifty.

“But your health…” Zoey choked before she could finish.

“It’s nothing. As long as I continue to take my medications, I’ll be fine. The pain does get a little worse during cloudy and rainy days, though,” explained Emma casually.

Still, her sickness made her look at least twenty years older than she was.

Momentarily, Emma suddenly remembered something. “You guys had better leave now. You shouldn’t stay here for too long.”

“Why?” asked Levi and Zoey in confusion.

“They’re always watching me. For almost thirty years, nobody was allowed to enter this courtyard or even talk to me. That was why I didn’t have to lock the door. Nobody would dare to come by. If they find you here, you’ll all be in danger. There might even be a serious beating.”

In a panic, Emma tried to hurry the three out, but Levi would not budge.

“It’s okay, Mom. Nobody will lay a finger on you while I’m around.”

Levi sneered. “Nobody bullies my mother!”

“We’re no match for these people, so please just go! They’ll see you!” begged Emma anxiously.

The Return of the God of War Chapter 923

Emma was well aware that she was constantly being watched, so it was only a matter of time before her son and his companions were spotted.

“Just go!”

Emma even pushed her son to get him to leave.

Creak!

Emma’s face fell when she heard the door opening.

“Oh, no! They’re here!” exclaimed Emma with a pale face.

“Hey, old swine! Someone’s here with you, aren’t they? Did you forget the rules? How dare you bring outsiders home with you!” threatened a voice from outside.

Seeing how terrified his mother was, Levi realized how she was treated before.

“What do we do now?”

Emma was as anxious as a mouse in a cattery.

“We’ll be fine, Mom. You have me now,” assured the son.

“Let’s go and check it out.” Levi and the others then went out to the yard to meet a few fierce-looking young men.

“So, you really do have people here, you old swine! Are you trying to get beaten up?” sneered the group leader.

Seeing how his mother had shrunk behind him in terror, Levi was infuriated. “Do you guys beat her up a lot?”

“We do. So what? She’s nothing but an old piece of trash,” ridiculed the leader before the other men laughed. Unfortunately, none of them realized the severity of Levi’s rage.

“Get yourself over here and kneel before me, you old swine! You’ve broken the rules, so that means that it’s time for a beating!” shouted the man.

Emma was so frightened that she trembled all over; it was evident that she had been beaten up before.

There was no way that her frail and sickly body could take such a beating.

“Hiding, are we? I’ll drag you out if I have to!”

The man then rushed toward Levi to grab Emma.

Slap!

Levi slapped his hand onto the man’s wrist to grab hold of it.

“What the… “ The man tried to break free, but it was to no avail.

“Release me before I beat you up too,” threatened the young man.

Kick!

A cold glint flashed across Levi’s eyes before he lifted his leg to kick the young man. The thug was soon sent tumbling backward.

“Get them! Get all of them!” roared the young man as blood dripped out of his mouth.

The other men rushed forward, but Sylas took care of them all with only a few kicks and punches.

Emma’s jaw dropped when she saw how powerful her son and his companions were.

The men got back up before threatening, “So, you’ve got yourself some help to leave Margo City, huh? We’ll see about that, Emma. You’re not out of the woods yet!”

“No, that’s not it. I… I’m not going to leave Margo City,” denied Emma immediately.

“Then, how would you explain this? There’s no denying it. Just you wait!” shouted the men before retreating.

The Return of the God of War Chapter 924

“It’s all over now. Get as far away as possible, and don’t ever return. Seeing you once more is enough for me. I have no other regrets.”

Emma had completely broken down. “If you don’t leave now, they’ll return to kill you.”

She was not to contact the outside world, much less allow anyone to find her. That was the rule.

She was told that anyone who found out about her existence would be killed, and that was how the Garrisons ensured that nobody would ever find her.

“To tell you the truth, I came here to take you away with me, so pack your things. We’re leaving, Mom.”

“What?”

Emma could not believe what she had just heard. I hadn’t even dared to leave this block, why would I leave the city?

She had been imprisoned in that city for nearly thirty years, and the invisible shackles on her had become part of her.

Even in her dreams, she could not escape the purgatory. I don’t have the courage to do it. Anything but leaving Margo City!

“I understand what you’re trying to do for me, but the Garrisons have set the rule that I’m not to step out of this city, ever! If I do, they’ll kill you. You saw the tombstone, right? That’s for you!” Tears were already dropping like rain from Emma, but the idea amused Levi. “Nobody can kill me. Not yet anyway.”

The man had survived the battlefield for six years, and no matter how bad things got, he would always come back alive. Thus, why the heck would I be afraid of the Garrisons? Besides, a small place like Margo City doesn’t scare me.

“Listen to me, Mom. One way or the other, I’m going to get you out,” insisted Levi.

“Do you know who’s keeping me here? He’s the most powerful man in the city, The King of Margo City himself! The Garrisons got the man to imprison me for nearly thirty years. He’s practically the city itself! He has eyes all over the place and he knows exactly who is in his city.”

Emma continued to dissuade her son. “I know that you’re an extraordinary man, but you’re no match for The King of Margo City, let alone the Garrisons. Levi, listen to me and leave now!”

Even Zoey was starting to worry for her husband. How is Levi going to fight against all of these people?

“Levi, maybe we should leave first and come up with a plan later,” suggested Zoey.

“You do that, Zoey, but I’m staying,” insisted Levi.

“No. We’re all in this together!”

The Return of the God of War Chapter 925

Emma grew anxious as she wondered what to do about the hard-headed couple.

Vroom!

Several cars arrived at the courtyard, and dozens of men stepped out of them.

“Emma, you old swine! I’d heard that you’d gotten yourself some help to escape Margo City. Oh my, the audacity this woman has!”

Shivers traveled down Emma’s spine when she heard the voice.

It was Erwin, the son of Amos Braus, The King of Margo City.

Amos had already delegated his son to watch over Emma because he wanted the Garrisons to recognize Erwin

This would be a great help to his son’s future.

When Erwin heard that Emma was trying to escape, he quickly brought a group of men over.

“So it’s true.” Erwin sneered at Levi and the rest.

“Didn’t you use to kneel whenever I arrived, Emma? What’s changed? Grown a pair, have you?” Erwin continued to sneer as anger flooded through Levi’s veins.

I’ll ensure that these people shall pay for what they have done to my mother for the past twenty years!

“I’m sorry, Mr. Braus. I’ll do it right now.”

Emma was about to kneel before the man, but Levi stopped her.

“Don’t, Mom. You shall bow to no one.”

“Mom? So this is your son?” Shocked, Erwin shifted his focus to Levi. “This is Levi Garrison? Tell me, old swine, how did this bastard find you?”

Erwin was surprised because he always heard his father promising the Garrisons that nobody would know that Emma was in Margo City, especially not those who were close to her.

Never did they expect Emma’s son to have found her.

If the Garrisons were to find out about this, their family alone would be ruined, if not massacred.

Erwin perspired all over at the thought of it.

“Well done, Levi. I didn’t expect you to have stumbled upon this place,” admitted Erwin after taking a deep breath.

“Emma, you should know the rules. Whoever knows about you and your location will be killed, let alone your son. He’ll never walk out of here alive because we can’t have the world know of your true identities.”

A murderous glint flashed in Erwin’s eyes before he coldly ordered, “Kill all three of them!”

If it were the usual, Erwin would have captured a beauty like Zoey for his own enjoyment.

However, there was too much at stake then.

The Return of the God of War Chapter 926

When Emma and Zoey heard that Erwin wanted them killed, both of them panicked.

“Please spare my son, Mr. Braus. I’d never said that I wanted to leave Margo City. Heck, I wouldn’t even leave this courtyard!” begged Emma after kneeling before the man.

“Mom, what are you doing?”

Levi quickly helped his mother up.
