Chapter 61 Tell Him Who I Am!
“That’s outrageous!” George snorted. “Dare to cause trouble in the East District, even if you have SHADOW backing you up, I will still bring you to justice today and let you know what it means to be outmatched!”
As soon as he finished speaking, a group of men behind him aimed their weapons at Billy and his companion.
“George, you bastard! If you want to die so badly, go jump off a building yourself. Why drag others down with you?” Just then, an extremely angry voice came from the entrance of the house.
Immediately after that came the sound of hurried footsteps. Hundreds of fully armed soldiers rushed in and surrounded George’s men.
“Governor Chasey, what brings you here?” Seeing the middle-aged man leading them, George trembled all over and quickly went up to greet him. He couldn’t help but panic. The person who had come was Roderick Chasey, second-in-command of the East District Military Department.
And since the injury of the Eastern King, Roderick had been in charge of running things in East District. Rumor had it that he might soon take over officially.
When Billy saw him, though there was a glint of suspicion in his eyes. Before this, he had no interaction with Roderick, only occasionally heard people mention him and his overall evaluation was acceptable.
George had just walked up when Roderick raised his hand and slapped him. Then, there was blood oozing out of the corner of George’s mouth.
“Who gave you the right to bring people here and show off arrogantly?” Roderick snapped at him angrily. After that, he slapped across his face again twice to vent his anger.
George stood still and dared not move, with a strong look of panic in his eyes. He vaguely felt that he might have gotten into trouble today, otherwise Roderick wouldn’t have been so angry.
The Watkins family who were standing aside had a shocked expression on their faces, especially Coman, who knew Roderick was a powerful and intimidating man well. And thus he grew a sense of unease.
“Speak up, are you mute? Who let you come here?” Roderick continued to shout at George.
“No one gave me instructions. It was my own decision. I… I heard that someone in Ozin is committing crimes, killing innocent people indiscriminately, so…”
Before he could finish his sentence, Roderick kicked him out.
“You damn well have some nerve to think someone in Ozin is killing innocent people!” Roderick looked furious. “Just wait, I’ll deal with you later!”
After speaking, he walked quickly towards Billy and bowed deeply.
“Commander, one of my subordinates has caused trouble and I ask for punishment.”
His attitude was sincere and respectful without any hint of pretense, his eyes showing a hint of awe. Although he was second in command in the East District, even if the Eastern King were here, no one would dare speak loudly to Billy.
Five lords of the five districts showed Billy their greatest respect. Regardless of their strengths, the other four lords felt inferior in front of Billy since he created the army of Bloodshadow, which was an iron-blooded team with strict discipline and incredible combat power. From its establishment until now, they had never lost in hundreds of battles. The army was known as a miracle. On the other hand, although Roderick wasn’t in Billy’s war zone, he had known about him for a long time for both Billy’s martial arts strength as well as his personal character, which made him deeply admire.
He received a call from Capital City yesterday informing him that King of West had come to East District. At that time, while on mission outside town, he rushed back immediately, fearing something might go wrong. But what he most worried about still happened. He came here only to see George surround Billy with people.
The entire square was left with dropped jaws and petrified expressions.
The second-in-command of the East District War Department was showing such respect to a young man in front of him.
“Governor Chasey… Who is he?” George asked. Even a fool like him knew that he had definitely provoked an absolute big shot. Thinking back to how SHADOW’s people looked at Billy with admiration and awe, he trembled violently as he already had some guesses in his mind.
“You want to know who I am?” Billy first nodded slightly at Roderick before turning his head towards the group of SHADOW.
“Tell him who I am!”This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Five hundred men simultaneously knelt down and shouted in unison, “Commander!”
Their loud voices shook the heavens and echoed throughout the entire house, reaching high up into the clouds.
The next moment, countless people collapsed directly with fear.
They never thought that the person in front of them was actually the legendary figure known as King of the West and the master of SHADOW. It was said that he stood alone at the national gate, leading an army of tens of thousands called the Army of Bloodshadow, roaring like a lion against millions of enemy troops from various countries. He led his followers intimidating all the small fry in the area. He was considered a great fortune for the country.
Ironically, they were thinking about annihilating him themselves. He was one who could exterminate them in a blink.
George walked nervously to Billy’s side with a pale face and then knelt down.
“I’m sorry… I didn’t know you were… I… I was also deceived by the people from Buddha Hall, they told me that someone was causing chaos in Ozin and killing innocent people, so I followed them to take a look… It’s my fault, please punish me!”
While speaking, his whole body trembled while he broke out in a sweat. George now hated Coman so much for causing him such a trouble.
“He is your subordinate, I’ll leave him to you.” Billy said to Roderick .
“Yes, sir!” Roderick responded respectfully and then ordered his people, “Take them away and wait for further instructions.”
Two men in military attire picked up George, who was as paralyzed as mud.
