Chapter 2013
"Um, alright. We'll do that! I'll hand over the hostage and you will hand over the motherwort at the same time!’ The
Poisonwielder nodded and agreed to Leon's suggestion.
"Mister Wolf, please hand me the motherwort. I'll do the exchange!" Fletcher said.
Since the Poisonwielder was an Almighty martial artist and was notoriously known for his ruthlessness, Leon was far
too young and weak to rival his power and he would be in danger if Leon carried out the trade.
Hence, it would be safer for Fletcher to trade with the Poisonwielder instead.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Oh. Sure!" Leon knew that he was not powerful enough and did not refuse Fletcher's offering. He placed the
motherwort back into its box and was about to hand it over to Fletcher, when the Poisonwielder stopped him.
"No! Kid, you were the one who proposed, so you have to be the one to make the trade if you want the hostage
back! Don't try to get others to do your work for you!' The Poisonwielder said viciously and narrowed his eyes.
"Why shouldn't he? Poisonwielder, don't tell me that you are still plotting something!" Fletcher retorted.
He did not know why the Poisonwielder insisted on making the trade with Leon, but even a fool could tell that the
Poisonwielder was plotting something.
"So what if I am? Fletcher, are you that scared of me even when you have your men surrounding me as we speak?
How incompetent can the Dragon Corps be if you're this timid?’ The Poisonwielder sneered.
"Why you!" Fletcher's expression darkened as he was rendered speechless.
After all, the Poisonwielder was telling the truth; judging from the situation, the Dragon Guards outnumbered him
and there was no way that Fletcher would fear him.
However, Leon was the leader of the reinforcement team from the southern region and Fletcher did not want to
risk his safety either, or it would be challenging to answer to the southern branch if anything happened to Loen.
"Fletcher, forget it! If he insists that I make the trade, I'll do it! We can't just let him walk all over the Dragon Corps!'
Leon said calmly.
"What?!"
"No way!’
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFletcher and the other Dragon Guards gasped in shock.
They knew that a man of Leon's age would be powerless before the Poisonwielder.
If Leon made the trade with the Poisonwielder, he would surely be attacked and would instantly suffer unimaginable
injuries considering how low Leon's power level was.
"It's fine! I have nothing to fear from him!' Leon smirked.
He was no stranger to this sort of situation as he was once attacked by Harold when he tried to make a trade with
the hostage involved as well. Since he experienced something similar in the past, he knew what the Poisonwielder
was planning and since he had multiple weapons in hand, he was confident that the Poisonwielder would come to
regret it if he dared to attack Leon.
