Bars are known for their constant noise, especially at night during operating hours, but right now, the entire bar is eerily silent with everyone within staring blankly as though they were seeing the most disbelieving thing in history, particularly the ones who knew the reputation of the two Lion Kings. This silence lasted for a long time before eventually, the Lion King, whose leg was being held by Xavier returned to his senses and became deeply embarrassed which promptly changed to an incredible rage. “Bastard! Let go of my leg!” He snapped ferociously, trying to force away his leg from Xavier’s lazy grasp. Yet, for some reason, he wasn’t able to move it an inch—It was as though the leg was being held by the large hand of a deity and not the seemingly weak Xavier. “Are you deaf? I say let go of my leg!” He barked and Xavier instantly smiled slightly before nodding his head. “Sure,” he responded before continuing just as the Lion King was about to heave a sigh of relief. “I will just repay you with what you wanted to do to me.” “This!” Everyone gasped and saw something flash in their eyes before they could think, after which, a shrill scream that sounded as though someone was being butchered echoed. Subsequently, Xavier let go of his hand and the Lion King was sent ricocheting away halfway across the bar. “Ah!!!!!!” He wailed like someone whose skin was being torn away from his body, making everyone feel their hair standing at the end while wondering about what had just happened. They all turn into statues in an instant which lasts for a moment before the first Lion King forces himself to return to his senses. “Third—third brother! What’s with your cry?” He asked with fear before rushing toward his brother. “Aren’t you embarrassing yourself too much? Yelling this loudly and painfully merely because a tiny ant that could easily be squashed to death with my fingers hurled you away?” He complained with dissatisfaction before bending over to help his brother up. The following second, however, he paused slightly before his eyes widened significantly, after which a strong shill ran down his spine. “What-“ his mouth hung open as he subconsciously moved his hand toward his brother’s crotch area. “What’s—what’s blood doing here?” he inquired incredulously and then pressed down with his hand. “Rahhhhhhh!!!!” The second Lion King’s roar intensified as if he were experiencing the most excruciating pain imaginable, and soon after, he fainted. The bar became pin-drop silent after this until; “He wanted to castrate me, but I castrated him instead. That’s fair, no?” A calm and lazy voice inquired, making everyone shiver frantically with goosebumps crawling hysterically all over their skin, then they glanced at the speaker. “He—he crippled the lion king?” Someone swallowed hard and mumbled doubtfully. Just then, the first Lion King returned to his senses and he screamed. “How dare you castrate my brother?!” “I’m going to kill you!!!” His voice filled to the brim with killing intent scaring everyone in the bar out of their wits. “The Lion King is finally mad,” someone mumbled and ran toward the bar’s exit without hesitation, looking terrified to the core. “Probably all the eyewitnesses here tonight are done for!” Another person mumbled fearfully as he also ran for his li… Everyone, knowing how unreasonable the Lion Kings normally are quickly ran for their lives, and before long, only Xavier, the fainted Lion King, the first Lion King who had turned into a raging bull, the dumbstruck bartender, and a horrified Grace were left behind. “Die!!!!” The First Lion King roared with rage and closed in on Xavier, throwing his tightly clenched fist at his face with all the strength he could muster. Watching this scene, the hearts of the bartender and Grace trembled, knowing that there was no way Xavier would be able to dodge or survive the attack. Although they weren’t the ones receiving it, they felt the strong force originating from it and trying to destroy them, making the two ladies shut their eyes just as the attack was an inch away from hitting Xavier’s face, unable to handle the scene that would follow. They brace themselves, expecting a shrill scream, but then a deafening silence was what they heard, lasting for a long time until the ladies could no longer handle their confusion. ‘What happened?’ they thought and squinted open their eyes, wanting to sneak a peak at what had happened. What came into their view the next second made their eyes widen in stupefaction. “Am—am I dreaming?” The bartender mumbled to herself dumbly before quickly pinching her arm. Having worked in the bar for a few years, she had long learned about the strength of the two Lion Kings, able to face the attacks of five able-bodied men without breaking a sweat, yet… “You—you—you…” the Lion King, who had attacked Xavier with madness and hatred earlier finally returned to his senses and stuttered as he eventually experienced what his brother had gone through a moment ago and to say he was terrified right now was nothing but an understatement. He had never thought the seemingly weak Xavier who looked like someone he could pinch to death with his fingers would be able to stop his punch with just a single hand. He thought he was dreaming as he stared at Xavier casually holding his arm that was tightly bulging with his thick veins from exerting all his strength. “You—you—who… who are you?” He finally completed and Xavier, staring composedly at him sighed. “I didn’t want any trouble; I just wanted to prevent you from committing an immoral deed while enjoying my peace. Why did you and your brother have to push my hand?” he asked helplessly, leaving the Lion King and the bartender stunned. ‘You didn’t want trouble and yet you interfered in our business, even castrating my brother! What nonsense was that?!’ He yelled in his mind, almost sobbing, but dared not to speak out. “Plea—please forgive me, master. I—I was just too blind to see the elephant in the room! Please forgive me!” The bartender, “_” ‘Is this still the First of the two shameless and evil self-acclaimed Lion kings?’ She thought blankly before hurriedly glancing back at Xavier. Her heart began to pound frantically in her chest and she became filled with curiosity for him, meanwhile, Xavier, not realizing what he had caused to the bartender suddenly gazed seriously at the Lion King. Given how you and that fool behaved today and the things I learned, you two love getting ladies drunk so that you can have your ways with them, no?” “I—I… “ The Lion King became further terrified. If those who had run for their lives out of fear were to witness this scene, they would have been stunned to death, but since no one was there, they couldn’t have in their entire lives imagined what had transpired after they escaped. “I—tonight was our first time and I have never had the intention of forcing myself on anybody,” the lion king sobbed, regretting why he and his brother hadn't ignored or begged Xavier to mind his business earlier. “Please forgive me!” He pleaded desperately, wishing nothing but to escape right now. Xavier watched the horrified Lion King without reacting for a moment, while the two ladies stared at him, waiting to see what he would do. Eventually, he sighed deeply. “As I mentioned earlier, I only wanted to have some drink in peace.”Latest Chapter
Chapter 1302 – The Crowd’s Realization
*****It took a moment that felt like an eternity before anyone came back to their senses, and when they finally did, a wave of deep relief washed over many of the crowd.‘The person they’re after isn’t among us.’Their shoulders nearly sagged as the tension eased, all of them immensely grateful they wouldn’t be caught in the crossfire as collateral damage.However, for those who had actually been present earlier, relief never came.Instead, they just stared, dumbfounded.Their eyes remained glued on the blank screen as though waiting for the rest of reality to return.But nothing else played, and to this, realization only began to dawn on them after about two minutes.And with that, their hearts skipped in their chests.‘That… wasn’t what happened.’ Their minds screamed in unison.Instantly, staff members and witnesses who had been present during Xavier’s visit exchanged subtle glances, then, like a lightning strike tearing through collective consciousness, the truth hit th
Chapter 1301 – The CCTV’s Footage
*****Several people’s hearts skipped in their chests, and immediately, their minds jumped back to the earlier moment when Xavier had complained about nearly being drowned in cup after cup of coffee.That bizarrely humorous moment had been so memorable that several people had already planned to recount it later when they returned home.But now…As soon as these people recognized Xavier, they instinctively turned, glancing back at the Revercrests, and… they saw the terrifying expressions on their faces.The hatred, the killing intent, and the cold, unsettling glint in their eyes.Instantly, they understood.‘He really is the wanted one.’And in that moment, two completely opposite emotions struck them simultaneously.On one side, the crowd felt immense relief… so powerful it nearly left some lightheaded.Their hearts, which had been pounding frantically in terror, finally began to slow as the realization settled heavily into their minds that this horrifying situation had noth
Chapter 1300 – ‘I Know Him!’
*****The image of Silas in the manager’s mind instantly grew even larger, his respect for him intensifying even further.At this point, he felt nothing but overwhelming relief.‘Fortunately…’ He nearly wept inwardly."Fortunately, I didn’t try to improvise on the instruction. I carried everything out exactly as Brother Silas planned.’The sheer correctness of that decision struck him powerfully now.Because after witnessing the reactions of the three Revercrests, the manager understood one horrifying truth… any mistake, unnecessary deviation, or sign of bias toward one side would have already turned him into collateral damage.Just then, Silas’s warning echoed loudly in his mind.‘Whatever you do, make sure you treat the three sides equally. Even the slightest sign of bias toward one side would be disastrous.’That instruction had become his lifeline, which was exactly why he hadn’t accepted any of the hand-drawn portraits earlier, knowing well that he wouldn’t be able to accept all
Chapter 1299 – The Manager’s Contrasting Emotions
*****At this instant, the crowd’s thoughts spiraled wildly, chaotic paranoia consuming them.Yet, beyond the violent pounding of their hearts and fear… another emotion boils within them right now.Anger.Because from the crowd’s perspective, the manager had just committed the ultimate betrayal.‘He actually dares to provide CCTV footage to these psychopathic demons in human form? What happened to consumer rights?’‘Isn’t he supposed to protect us with everything he has?’‘What kind of garbage dealership is this?!’At this point, many customers, staff members, and bystanders felt their terror mixing aggressively with outrage.Their fear remained, but now it was laced with cold resentment sharp enough to leave scars.‘If I somehow survive this… I’m never patronizing this shitty dealership again.’Several people silently swore, fear, paranoia, and desperation churning violently inside their trembling souls.…Meanwhile, as the crowd remained trapped in a chaotic mix of shoc
Chapter 1298 – The Manager’s Offer
*****“I… I apologize, sirs. I’m not very good at catching things.”The manager’s voice trembled perfectly, his fear appearing authentic.But before any of the three could further process his blunder, he hurriedly continued.“Moreover… even if I see the person in the picture, I might not necessarily recognize them, after all, I rarely attend to customers directly.”Hearing him, the three men narrowed their eyes, their murderous intent brewing visibly now… thick and suffocating.They didn’t even bother hiding it in the slightest, leaving the poor manager to nearly collapse under the pressure.Without even realizing it, cold sweat had already soaked his back, his legs trembling so fiercely that it was a miracle they remained functional.Yet outwardly, he maintained his nervous act.“How about…” he quickly pressed on, desperate to avoid letting the situation spiral into his untimely death, “I provide the CCTV footage instead?”Silence.“This…”The killing intent that had been
Chapter 1297 – “I’m Not Very Good at Catching Things”
*****Silas’ earlier instructions flashed vividly through his memory.At the time, Silas had explained that his father and siblings were now in direct competition, no longer restrained by family loyalty.Back then, the manager had barely understood the words, but now…He understood the madness.‘Wow…’ His internal disbelief was almost comical.‘What in heaven’s name could reduce a family to this level of insanity?’He nearly asked, but, seeing their faces, he wisely chose survival over curiosity.Internally, he sighed.Outwardly, however, he maintained the perfect image of a terrified subordinate desperately trying not to die.“I… Sir Patriarch… Young Masters…” he began nervously, his voice trembling with masterful precision. “This small person has… has no idea who exactly you are searching for.”He swallowed hard, his Adam’s apple bobbing like it, too, was trying to escape.“P-Please… if you could provide more details… I… I can assist you more effectively.”The moment th
