Chapter 2393 He Begged Me For It
Suddenly, he felt a chill running up his spine. For some reason, he felt death itself staring
at him from behind. If he wasn’t careful, he might just get killed right there and then.
He turned around and saw Levi glaring at him furiously, his eyes filled with murderous
intent. A destructive force was brewing within Levi, and he could feel it. The energy was
almost palpable, and it was crashing down on him. It was as if he was facing a force of
nature, and he could do nothing about it.
In the end, he realized he had caused a lot of trouble for Levi, and he quickly excused
himself lest Levi kills him. “Um, well… I’ll leave you guys to it. I’ll have to go now. I’m
worried about Queenie.”
Levi would tear me apart. Gotta skedaddle.
Levi noticed what the divine brigadier was trying to do, and he wanted to give chase, but
everyone got in his way, stopping him.
“What are you doing? Trying to go to The Cardinal Hall so you can ask for her hand in
marriage? You’re a worthless piece of scum, Levi,” Henry spat.
Aaron and his wife wanted to slap Levi there and then. They could not believe he actually
said he was marrying someone else right in front of them and Zoey. To them, that was the
worst form of humiliation.
“What are you trying to do, Levi? Do you think you’re so strong now that you managed to
rank on the Divine Leaderboard? Do you think you can do anything now that you’ve
adapted? So you want to abandon Zoey and Evie? Just because you fell for Queenie? Just
because her father’s the divine brigadier?”
“The divine brigadier greenlighted the whole thing, but do you really think he approves of
you? He only wants you for your genes! So you can be a baby making machine! So they
can get more geniuses out of you. You’re not as important as you think you are!” Henry
chided.
Everyone was glowering at Levi as well. They were disappointed in him, and that included
his disciples and friends.
They could understand the underlying reason. After Levi realized how competitive the new
world had become, he thought it was too much of a difference from how it used to be, and
it was hard for him to accept this reality. He might have made his way into the Divine
Leaderboard, but it was still a far cry from what he used to be.
He needed an opportunity to get back to the top, and The Cardinal Hall was the best route
for him. Or at least it was one of the best. Of course Levi wouldn’t let that chance slip. But
just because of that, everyone realized that Levi was no longer the same person they used
to know.
“No, guys. I can explain—” Levi desperately wanted to tell them the truth so they would
stop misunderstanding him.
But nobody would give him any chance, and they kept yelling at him. “Explain? We don’t
need your explanation! We saw everything with our own eyes!”
However, Zoey spoke up, “Hold it. Let him explain. I want to hear it.”
Levi finally had a chance to explain himself, and so he did. “Alright. I can explain. The
divine brigadier came to see me so he can introduce his daughter to me. Then he begged
me to marry her. He said they don’t care even if I have a family. All he wanted me to do
was to marry her. He even said it’s normal for a guy to have more than one wife.
“But that’s beside the point. The point is he f*cking lied. He lied to everyone, including
me. I never said I would marry his daughter, but he put the words in my mouth. I was
about to say no, but he was already dragging me out to see her. I couldn’t stop him.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZoey sneered. “Did you just say the divine brigadier begged you to marry his daughter?”
Levi nodded. “Yes, that’s absolutely right. He said he’d do whatever it takes.”
Zoey continued, “And he was lying when he said you agreed to the deal?”
Levi nodded again. “Yes, that’s right. He lied to everyone. But he knows he messed up, so
he ran away in case I beat him up.”
It was the truth, but everyone didn’t believe a single word of it. Especially not the part
where Levi said the divine brigadier ran because he was afraid of getting beaten up.
“Levi, you b*stard. Will it kill you to just stop lying for a moment? Can’t you just come
clean for once?” Zoey was enraged by the lies.
“You think he’d be scared of you? Sorry, but he just beat the top fighter on the Divine
Leaderboard! He beat Dark Emperor! That guy’s stronger than my master! There’s no
reason for him to be afraid! And the divine brigadier never goes back on his promises! Do
you think a man like that would lie through his teeth?
“If you hadn’t agreed to it, he wouldn’t have said you did. There’s no point in that! Stop
joking around. Someone like him would never lie! For Pete’s sake, Levi, stop twisting the
story to fit your narrative! You don’t have to lie about it. You’re a man, so be one! We know
you did that, so just admit it!”
