Chapter 130
Chapter 130 Sioux Is Abuzz
The three pieces of news spread like wildfire throughout Sioux.
It reached Freya, Frank and Annie very soon. The three of them broke down at once upon finding out. They had never thought that Lucian had gone to play a game of Russian Roulette with
Sylvain Guevara the night before, and even got the guy killed.
The Guevara family…
The most powerful family in Dawkin’s underground scene.
It could be said that the Guevaras were one of the top dogs of Dawkin. They had endless connections and power. Whoever got on their bad side was as good as dead, and Lucian had done just that…
They were done for. It was all over.
“Get down here, Lucian.”
Freya was trembling with rage, roaring at Lucian.
Lucian himself was still deep in slumber when he awoke to Freya yelling at him. He bumbled downstairs in a blur. “What’s up?”
“Are you seriously asking me that right now?”
Freya gritted her teeth in outrage. “What are you trying to do? It’s bad enough that you got on Oscar and Larry’s bad side, and now you’ve offended the Dawkin Guevaras too! Are you just not going to quit until you get yourself killed?”
“He forced me to play the game. I had no choice.”
Lucian knew that there was no point in hiding the truth anymore, and had no choice but to admit it.
“How are you just alright?” Freya was in disbelief, raging at him. “Do you know what you’ve done? Sylvain’s father is King Dawkin, and his uncle’s the Staleridge War Go d. What’s wrong with you?”
“The Azure Dragon War Go d saved me yesterday. I’ve got him on my side!”
Lucian gave it some thought before answering.
“Oh my
Go d.”
Freya barked an outraged laugh, sitting on the sofa and wheezing to herself. Go d, Lucian really was hilarious.
1/5
Annie saw her daughter’s outrage and spoke up at once. “Lucian, don’t you think you’re overestimating yourself? This is the Staleridge War Go d we’re talking about, he’s pretty much on the same level at the Infernal War Go d! Do you really think that the Nordfren war zone is really going to go to war against the Staleridge war zone just for you?”
“…” Lucian fell silent. He honestly wanted to say that yes, yes they would.
He was just afraid that the three of them would get even more angry after hearing that, and thus stayed silent.
“The Staleridge War Go d’s posted a statement!”
Just then, Frank came over holding his phone.
Freya and Annie rushed up to him at once. The two women read the contents of the statement, and collapsed onto the sofa. This left Lucian curious, and made him want to know what the Staleridge War Go d could have possibly posted to make these two so terrified.
‘I, Norman Guevara, the Staleridge War G od, hereby declare Lucian Gray to be my ar chenemy starting from today. This has nothing to do with anyone else. I will kill this ba stard no matter what it takes, and avenge my nephew. Do what you will with this information.’
The news had attracted countless comments and views.
The Staleridge war zone’s official account had even liked Norman’s post.
The most interesting part was that the Staleridge war zone account had tagged the Nordfren war zone’s official account, as well as the Infernal War G od’s personal account. It was obvious that the last line of the statement was directed at them.
Lucian was a soldier from the Nordfren war zone, but they did not want Nordfren to meddle in
this at all.
Or else, a war was going to break out!
#
They were mad…
Judging from the Staleridge War G od and the Staleridge war zone’s gestures, they were enraged like never before. They had even obviously hinted at Nordfren to stay out of this, and that even if Nordfren insisted on stopping them they would still kill Lucian.
It was clear how angry they were.
“Lucian, do you seriously think that the Infernal War G od and the Nordfren war zone are going to protect you?”
Freya held the phone up to Lucian, asking angrily.
2/5
Lucian fell silent for three seconds, not saying anything.
“Hang on. Let’s see if the Nordfren war zone responds.”
Annie comforted Freya, staring daggers at the phone screen.
Time ticked by second by second, and before long two hours had passed. Neither the Nordfren war zone or the Infernal War Zone had responded, as if they had not even seen the post. Everyone understood that their silence implied that they were not going to pay
Lucian any
Upon second thought, it made sense. Lucian was no more than a soldier cooking on the frontlines.
mind.
Why would the Nordfren war zone declare war against the Staleridge war zone over one soldier who hardly mattered?
Freya sat on the sofa hopelessly. “Waiting for a response from Nordfren? What, as if Lucian was the Infernal War G od or someone important enough for Nordfren to go to war with Staleridge over? He’s just an army cook! No one’s going to care about him.”
Annie and Frank fell silent as they nodded, unsure about how to reply to Freya’s question.
That was true.
Nordfren might protect Lucian if he was the Infernal War G od and go to war for him with no issue.
The problem was that Lucian was just a mere cook. Would Nordfred risk offending Staleridge just for him?
“Lucian, the Azure Dragon War King hasn’t said anything. It’s clear he’s not going to care about you.”
Freya adjusted her emotions, looking at Lucian. “What are you going to do now?”
“I can handle this. Do you believe me?”
Lucian looked at Freya, asking the question seriously.
Freya stopped short, looking at Lucian’s confident gaze and strangely believing that Lucian might actually fix this. She nodded in a daze. “I… I believe you.”
“You can handle this? How are you going to?”
Annic roared the words out, glowering at Lucian. “I think you’re just trying to sound tough! You’re done for, with the way things are going now! Your father’s grave is going to be relocated in four days, and the Gray family, Larry and Oscar are going to come for you. Even the Guevara family is
3/5
going to come for you. You’ve made so many enemies that even the Azure Dragon War King isn’t going to care about you anymore! What are you going to do?”
“Sigh, what did we do to deserve this?”
Frank covered his face with his hands, crying into them.
“I’ll think of a way. You don’t have to care about this anymore.”
Lucian said the words, getting up to leave.`
“Fay, forget this ba stard.” Annie yelled, outraged. “I told you that he’s gotten full of himself since the Infernal War G od spoke up online, and look what’s happened to him now! He asked for all this, let him die.”
Freya’s expression was full of worry. She wanted to help Lucian.
But… Lucian had many so many enemies, one of them even being the Staleridge War G od. How was she even going to help?
Was he really going to be done for just like this?
Was it the end of the road for Lucian, and he would be dead for sure?
The thought made tears slide out of the corner of Freya’s eyes. She thought that with Lucian back and her career moving forwards steadily, things would be looking up soon- only for Lucian to mess up so badly.
Was G od really going to punish her like this?
Lucian left the house and came to Simon’s house at once. Despite the negative comments from the outside world, he knew what he had to do- take back what his father was owed.
Paying back a debt was nothing but fair.
Lucian reached the door, and saw that it was tightly shut. He knocked, shouting, “Uncle Simon! Are you home?”
No one came to the door for a long time, but shouting could be heard from inside.
This mad Lucian frown, realizing that something was off.
Before he could continue knocking, the door was suddenly opened as Gabriel and Susan appeared in front of him. Their expressions were icy, staring at Lucian as if he was a stranger.
“You ba stard, don’t come to my house! We have nothing to do with you.”
4/5
Gabriel shouted at Lucian, his attitude cold.
