Chapter 1104
Since the Dragon Corps decided to interfere and accused him of killing the innocents without listeningto reasons, Leon knew that he might not survive if he left with them. If that was the case, he might aswell try his luck. With his power level in the Intermediate Overlord State, though he might not be able todefeat them, he still had a chance of escaping.
He could run and stay away for a time until the Dragon Corps gave up.
“Very well! You asked for this! If you want to die, I’ll let you have it!” The man gathered his true energyhis palm and was about to attack Leon.novelbin
Just then, the woman next to him stopped him. “Stop!”
“Cara, why are you stopping me?” The man questioned.
“Mark, we’re just here to investigate, not for you to show off your power! This man is just a suspect atthe moment, so can you spare him any accusation before we get to the bottom of this?” Cara scoffed.
“And we haven’t gotten to the bottom of this? All the evidence you need is right before us. It’s not likethe bodies are fake,” Mark said while pointing at the dead bodies..
“So what? The man just said that he was forced to defend himself. He didn’t murder anyone innocent!Besides, Harold is an infamous powerful figure among martial artists, known to be ruthless and vicious.He probably got what he deserved!” Cara snorted in contempt at the mention of Harold.
“Well,” Mark was instantly rendered speechless.
Unlike the police, the Dragon Corps aimed to control martial artists and maintain the order of thecommunity, but also to serve justice when needed.
As one of the two kings in the city, Harold was known to do whatever it might take to obtain what hewanted, so it would be reasonable for Leon to kill him if Leon was simply defending himself.
“Thank you for helping me, Miss,” The dark expression on Leon’s face eased as he was grateful forCara’s help.
“What did you just call me? Miss?” Cara was stunned for a moment.
“Yeah. Am I wrong?” Leon asked in confusion.
“No! You’re perfectly right!” Overjoyed, Cara beamed at him.
She was Mark’s wife and was only a few years younger than him, but since she maintained herappearance with care, she only looked as though she was in her thirties.
Being called Miss instead of Madam pleased her. On top of that, she was aware of all the crimesHarold committed over the years and saw Leon as the hero who stepped forward to fight the villain.
As someone righteous and just, Cara was impressed by Leon’s courage.
“I’ll cut to the chase, kid! You’re involved in murder and whether it’s an act of self–defense, you’ll needto come with us to undergo investigation. Don’t worry. Once we get to the bottom of this and confirmthat you were merely defending yourself, we won’t punish you over it!” Cara said.
“Oh,” Leon muttered hesitantly.
He knew that there were only dozens of Overlords in Springfield City and every single one of them wasbeing watched by the Dragon Corps.
