Chapter 2244 Personal Grudges
People began chiming in immediately, “Yeah! He has to protect his ego as a former
overlord, after all!”
“Exactly! There’s no way he’d cry in pain when there are so many people watching!”
“I’m really looking forward to seeing how pathetic Levi will look when his body slowly
dissolves into nothingness!”
Everyone began laughing at the thought of Levi dying a slow and agonizing death.
Levi then scanned the crowd around him as he said, “There, I’ve kept my end of the
bargain! Isn’t it about time you let my wife go as promised?”
If anyone were to say no, Levi would really get mad and kill them in one slap right then
and there.
“Well…”
Although some of them wanted to go against their word, they couldn’t bring themselves to
say it in front of that many people.
“Very well! Since you’ve done your part, we’ll spare your wife as promised!” Edmund took
the initiative to speak up, and everyone followed suit shortly after.
“Alright. We’re even now!”
Suddenly, Donald stepped forward and said, “Hold it right there! I have something to say!
As of now, Zoey’s crimes against Erudia and the rest of the world have been forgiven. Do
you understand what I mean, Levi?”
“Yeah, I do!” Levi replied with a nod as he knew what Donald was going to say next.
“Listen up, everyone! We’re sparing Zoey’s life today because we forgive her crimes
against the world, but that doesn’t include our personal grudges against her! We will get
our revenge today, and The Cardinal Hall isn’t allowed to stop us from doing so!” Donald
continued.
What he meant was simple.
The world may have forgiven Zoey for her wrongdoings, but they were still going to hold
her accountable for the personal grudges they had against her.
Edmund nodded in response. “Yes, I understand. The Cardinal Hall will not interfere with
personal grudges!”
Donald was hell-bent on getting his revenge on Levi, but Levi didn’t care about that in the
slightest.
All that mattered to him was the fact that he had appeased the world by stabbing himself
a hundred times earlier.
“Of course! I’ve already taken the punishment for Zoey anyway! As for personal grudges…
Well, feel free to bring it on! I’ll be waiting right here!” Levi said with a cold sneer.
He wouldn’t hesitate to fight back if they attacked him over personal grudges.
“Hahaha…”
Everyone burst into laughter.
Levi’s challenging us in that state? I bet he’d die without even knowing how! Do you think
you can protect Zoey when you’re not even that powerful? Dream on!
“We shall now proceed to strip Zoey of her powers! To be fair, we’ll have The Cardinal Hall
carry it out!”
Of course, Donald and his men haven’t forgotten Zoey’s part of the deal.
“I’ll do it!”

Edmund personally stripped Zoey of all her powers, and Levi let out a sigh of relief when
he saw her cough up blood.
This way, Zoey is more likely to return to normal!
“There, you’ve all gotten what you came for! Both Levi and Zoey have been punished
enough!” Edmund shouted, and it took about half an hour for the crowd to disperse
completely.
However, Levi knew most of them were secretly hiding in the shadows where they
continued to observe him.
That was especially the case for those who had a personal grudge against him as they
wanted to see how long he would last in his pathetic state.
Those of high statuses like Edmund and Donald, on the other hand, actually left the area
as sticking around shamelessly would tarnish their reputation.
Besides, they had constant access to information on Levi and would have plenty of
opportunities to torture him later on.
“Haha… Levi’s about to drop that tough act now, isn’t he?”
