Chapter 2383 Bad Son
But then even his daughter added, “Yeah, Father. You said you wouldn’t come back until
you become the strongest man on earth! And you never go back on your promises. Look
at that. My father, the strongest person on earth.”
She looked proud of her father, and Edmund was the same as well. Or even more so than
his sister. After all, he had dreamed of the day where his father became the strongest man
on earth. And now his dream had finally come true. His father had become the strongest.
He could imagine himself doing whatever he wanted without any fear or fervor. Edmund
had to look out for a lot of people before this, worried that they might attack him once
they had the advantage. But now that his father was back, he didn’t have to fear anyone
anymore.
Ahem! Ahem!
The divine brigadier kept coughing as his son kept blabbering on. He started trembling,
and eventually, he started to shake.
Every time they said he was the strongest man on earth, he’d have to cough. In the end,
he couldn’t stop coughing. His face was red, and his tears kept streaming down his
cheeks.
“What’s wrong, Father?”
“What’s wrong, divine brigadier, sir?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEveryone quickly gathered around and asked him what was happening.
“I… Ahem… I’m fine…” He kept coughing despite saying that. Nobody had ever imagined
seeing an invincible warrior like the divine brigadier coughing so violently, but now they
were seeing that for themselves.
He’s not gonna die from the coughs, right?
If anyone found out about this, they’d probably laugh their socks off at how ridiculous that
was.
Invincible? Yeah, I thought so too before I came back.
If he compared his current strength against all the fighters in the new era, his power would
be unmatched.
After all, he managed to defeat Dark Emperor easily, and she was number one on the
Divine Leaderboard. In theory, he was the strongest fighter in the world.
The Divine Leaderboard was the absolute authority in the world of fighters. Dark Emperor
managed to beat everyone easily, so she was undefeatable, theoretically speaking.
But even so, Dark Emperor lost out to him for many years, so by extension, he was the
strongest fighter on earth, not her.
The divine brigadier knew all the fighters in Erudia, including the ones in the shadows,
Eragon, and The Cardinal Hall.
But he was still the strongest even when he was compared to them, so he decided to
come back to The Cardinal Hall.
Since he heard that Dark Emperor had made her appearance in Erudia, he went to look for
her. To his surprise, he actually managed to come face to face with her, but she defeated
him with a single punch.
He was no match for her. She was far more powerful than him in terms of strength and
speed, and he couldn’t even find any openings to defeat her.
In the end, he admitted defeat, and that was the most humiliating day in his life.
He had been a prodigy since he was a child, and everyone had high hopes on him. All his
life, he only wanted to be the strongest fighter around, to stand on the top of this world.
But he lost. Horribly. He was powerless against his old enemy, and he couldn’t even begin
to describe how disappointed he was in himself.
Strongest? What a joke! I almost got myself killed the moment I came back! I would still be
severely injured if not for my medicine.
“Alright, enough. I’m fine,” the divine brigadier quickly told them after he snapped out of
it.
“Good to know! I’ll tell everyone about your return! And they’ll all know you’re now
undefeatable. Let’s see how they like that!” Edmund immediately declared.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was The Cardinal Hall’s biggest news over the last few decades, and the biggest news of
Erudia. Of course, he’d spread it as far and wide as possible.
But the moment he heard that, the divine brigadier coughed and staggered backward
again, this time almost falling down.
Undefeatable? Can you stop with that already? Undefeatable, my foot! And what did you
just say? Do you want to tell everyone about it? Are you dumb?
The divine brigadier could feel his sanity snap, and he almost had a heart attack on the
spot.
This stupid boy! He’s as dumb as bricks! Why did he have to say that?
That was the most humiliating day of his life, but everyone thought it was the best day
ever. To make things worse, they kept bringing it up, and they were even going to tell the
world about it.
If they actually did that, the divine brigadier would die from embarrassment.
Can you guys just stop? For god’s sake, just stop!
And then, someone from The Manifest Court asked, “Oh, did you just come out of a fight,
divine brigadier?”
The divine brigadier really felt like killing himself now.
And there they go again.
“I… Well… Yes, I did,” he admitted to it. After all, he couldn’t hide it from The Manifest
Court even if he wanted to.
