Yannick and Yoshua nodded without hesitation.
“Mr. Williams, I know you've also promised Hawkeye before that if he did as you instructed, you'd spare his life,”
Yannick said gingerly. “We don't want to make things difficult for you, either. That's why all we're asking for is a
chance to teach him a lesson. We have an axe to grind with him!”
“Let's go. I'll take you to Hawkeye,” Zeke answered.
“Okay!”
Soon, Zeke found Hawkeye in the Spirit Stone storage area. He was busy tallying up the number of stones with
Apollyon and Phoenix.
“Hawkeye, come over for a while.”
Hawkeye glanced at Zeke before turning his attention to the Lewis brothers.
I don't have a good feeling about this. If I'm not wrong, Yannick and Yoshua are here to seek revenge. After all, how
could they ever forget that their parents died at my hands?
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter giving it some thought, Hawkeye finally got up and made his way to the trio.
On the one hand, he didn't dare to disobey Zeke's orders. On the other, Zeke had promised not to kill him before,
and he believed the latter wouldn't go back on his word.
Worse come to worst, I'll let the Lewis brothers beat me up. I doubt it'd be anything more than that.
Zeke brought the men to a secluded corner.
“Mr. Williams, what can I do for you?” Hawkeye asked cautiously.
“Yannick, Yoshua, I leave Hawkeye in your hands.”
Naturally, the Lewis brothers were overjoyed.
They had thought Zeke would only allow them to beat Hawkeye to a pulp, but his current tone seemed to suggest
he was giving them the green light to get rid of Hawkeye altogether.
“Thank you for your help, Mr. Williams!”
Hawkeye, however, was frantic with fear. “M-Mr. Williams, how can a respected warrior like yourself go back on
your word? You promised me before that you wouldn't kill me.”
“Yes. I did say I won't kill you, and I'm not one to break my promises.”
“But aren't you killing me right now?”
“Idiot. I only promised not to kill you, but I never said I'd protect you,” Zeke reasoned. “Honestly, I've been kind
enough to keep you alive for so long. Now, it's Yannick and Yoshua who want your life, so why should I interfere? It's
outrageous that you even expect me to protect you.”
Hawkeye was at a loss for words as he felt his body go cold with dread.
Knowing full well that he had been fooled, he quickly turned around and tried to make a break for it.
“Stay right there, you b*stard!” Yannick and Yoshua yelled.
“Well, that's all I can do for you guys. Whether you can catch up to Hawkeye and avenge your parents' deaths is
now completely up to you,” Zeke said.
“Thank you, Mr. Williams,” Yannick exclaimed. “We'll never forget your kindness.”
With that, Zeke returned to the Spirit Stone storage area.
Even though Phoenix was still counting the stones, she couldn't help but throw him a curious glance. “Where's
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHawkeye? Where did you take him to?”
“Let's not talk about him. Phoenix, do you know the Centurion of the Northern Faction?”
Phoenix nodded. “Of course! In fact, I know quite a few of them. They have tried roping me in to join their faction,
but I turned them all down.”
“Excellent. Take us to the Northern Faction now.”
“Why? What business do you have there?”
“We'd like to borrow their Spirit Stones.”
Phoenix didn't know whether to laugh or cry. “You guys are pulling my leg, aren't you? Don't we have plenty of Spirit
Stones here in the Southern Faction? Besides, there's no way the Northern Faction would lend us theirs!”
“Oh, they will,” Zeke said firmly.
Phoenix burst into laughter. “Oh, come on. You guys must be joking!”
“I don't have time to chit-chat,” Zeke grumbled. “Just lead us to the Northern Faction.”
Phoenix's expression turned grim. “Are you guys really going to rob the Northern Faction of their Spirit Stones?”
Oh, please, there's no way I'd believe they intend to borrow the stones. Anyone with common sense will know
they're there to rob!
