Chapter 2533Who is it?
Several people glanced at the door impatiently, only to find that it was Johan, so the expressions of the
Decani turned solemn and courteous at once.
They stood up straight and greeted Johan.
“Chieftain, what brings you here?”
“Please have a seat!”
However, Johan ignored them, walking straight to Zeke.
When he reached Zeke, Johan wanted to kneel subconsciously and call Zeke “Great Marshal.”
However, before he could do that, Zeke cleared his throat, causing Johan to snap back to his senses.
The Great Marshal can't reveal his identity for now. If I spill the beans and ruin his plan, even my death
can't make up for my wrongdoing.
Johan hurriedly changed the way he addressed Zeke. “Mr. Williams, I went to ask Calix, a Centurion.
He expressed his intention to accept your challenge! Pick a time, and I shall inform Calix about it.”
Zeke took a deep breath before replying, “It's going to happen sooner or later, so there's no need to
drag things on. Let's get it over with tomorrow.”Johan nodded. “Sure. I'll inform him now.”
“Okay, go ahead!”
Johan then wheeled around to leave, but Apollyon stopped him. “Excuse me, Chieftain. Please wait a
second.”
Johan looked at Apollyon in curiosity. “Yes, is there anything else?”
Apollyon stated, “Chieftain, regarding the challenge to the Centurion, I think we need to reevaluate the
matter. Let me discuss this with my fellow Decani first. After that, I'll give you an answer.”
Johan could surmise that Apollyon was worried that Zeke would be beaten to death by Calix, so
Apollyon didn't want Zeke to challenge the Centurion.
However, his worry for Zeke was completely unnecessary.
noveldramaJohan had a friendly relationship with Apollyon before. As Apollyon had forced Johan to stay, the latter
didn't insist on leaving.
“All right. Go and discuss it then. I'll wait for your reply.”
Apollyon glanced toward Zeke. “Mr. Williams, do you really want to challenge the Centurion?”
Zeke answered, “Of course.”
“Mr. Williams, I think... it'd be better for you to give up on challenging him.” Apollyon soundedconcerned.
“Why?”
“Because I'm worried that you're no match for Calix! Since he can be a Centurion, he must have
considerable strength and ability. Mr. Williams, do you know his true strength?”
Zeke inquired, “Oh, how strong is he?”
“He's at least an Archduke warrior. There was a Half-Archduke who challenged Calix in the past. And
guess what? Calix only made one move and beat him to death. Besides, Calix even sucked his blood
dry like a barbarian. Only an Archduke warrior can take down a Half-Archduke in one move. Besides,
after so many years of training, his strength must have improved immensely. Unless you're an
Archduke warrior, you won't survive the fight with him.”
Other Decani also chimed in.
“I can confirm that what Apollyon says is true. If I've lied, I'll be struck by lightning!”
“Mr. Williams, you just came here recently, and your status here is not stable yet. Challenging a
Centurion now is a reckless move.”
“I agree to that. We should calm down and discuss it.”
Zeke eyed Johan. “You should go. Tell him I'll fight him tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Johan turned on his heel and left, causing the others to smile bitterly.
We might as well not have dissuaded him. The more we try to convince him not to do it, the more
determined he becomes.
After Johan was gone, Zeke uttered in a cold tone, “Why are you guys begging for mercy on Calix's
behalf and stopping me from fighting him? Do you all have a good relationship with him?”
I...
The Decani didn't know how to respond to that.
We begged you on Calix's behalf? Did that sound as though we did that for Calix? We are just worried
that you might be hammered to death!
Apollyon was the first to answer Zeke. “Mr. Williams, we were just doing it for your own good! Frankly, I
wish nothing more than for you to finish Calix off. He and I have a deadly feud between us.”
