The War God's Homecoming novel Chapter 451

Chapter 451 A Perfect Plan

"Outrageous!" Stan Mitchell furrowed his brows. "Who do you think you are, speaking to Commander Gardner in such a manner?"

"Just a small Glavale, acting like you're the master of the world?" The man continued in a contemptuous tone. "I talk like this wherever I go. Is that a problem?"

Harlan Holmes narrowed his eyes, then turned to a man from Ministry of Protocol and asked, "According to the regulations of your Ministry of Protocol, what should be the punishment for foreigners who disrespect a high-ranking Glavalean official?"

"Light punishment includes a formal apology, and a heavier one could result in expulsion from the country." The man from the Ministry of Protocol responded after a brief pause.

Harlan Holmes responded. "No provisions for execution?"

It seemed to Harlan Holmes that he was becoming more like one of Billy's people.

"Well," The man from the Ministry of Protocol twitched his mouth. "If the situation is extremely dire, then... it might not be out of the question."

"Then this behavior of his should be considered extremely dire, right?" Harlan Holmes continued. Afterward, he drew his sword and walked to that man from the Gosa family.

"What are you planning? Do you dare?" the man from the other side frowned. "Do you think my Northfortia is like those small countries around you? Just a little scare from you and I'd be frightened? If you dare today..."

"Give you three seconds, kneel down and apologize!" Harlan Holmes raised his knife and pointed it at the man, speaking in a low, menacing tone. "Otherwise, you're dead!"

For him, there should always be a show of force after a polite request, but he couldn't simply start by killing.

"Humph!" The man sneered. "You think I'd kneel to you Glavalean people? Unless I die..."

"Then you shall die!" Harlan Holmes narrowed his eyes and raised his sword to strike the man.

"Yas, be careful!" Another man from the group shouted urgently, taking two quick steps forward and using his palm to block Harlan Holmes' sword.

"Damn it! You deserve to die!" The man's body trembled slightly as he pointed angrily at Harlan Holmes. "You actually dare to..."

"You have some skill. Try taking another swing at me!" Harlan Holmes paid no attention to him and instead looked at the middle-aged man who had intervened. With that, his aura erupted in full force.

"Mr Holmes, let it go!" Billy said with a faint smile. He could tell that the man's skills were not inferior to Harlan Holmes, and in a direct confrontation, Harlan Holmes wouldn't have the upper hand. Moreover, for him, the outcome of these twenty people from Northfortia had been predetermined from the moment they entered Glavale's territory, so there was no hurry.

"Alright." Harlan didn't waste any words and simply stepped aside.

"Hey, you there! Didn't you want to meet my boss? Well, he's here now. Speak your piece!" Bob Stokes looked at the leader of the Northfortia group and spoke.

"Insolent!" The woman from their group shouted angrily. "You're a high-ranking official from Central Sky Office of Glavale. Can't you mind your manners?"

"If I didn't mind, you'd all be dead by now!" Bob Stokes retorted coldly.

"You..." The woman's face turned red with anger.

"Enough!" The leader of their group raised his hand and then turned to Billy with a slight bow. "I've long heard of Commander Gardner's name, and it's an honor to meet you today."

"State your name," Billy said calmly.

"I'm a member of Northfortia's cabinet, David Brown." Elder Thornen replied.
