Chapter - 1515

Zeller and everyone else gasped when they saw the state Mason was in.

The Great Marshal could truly be very ruthless when he wanted to be.

They had assumed that he was going to let Mason go without a scratch earlier.

Thinking back, they now realized how ridiculous this notion was.

“Keep an eye on him. Do not let him escape!” ordered Zeke. “If anyone comes to see him or assists him, let me know immediately.”

“Yes, Sir!”

Commander Aaron asked Zeke, “Now that you’ve crippled Mason, aren’t you worried the Carter sect will come to seek revenge?”.

Zeke sniggered. “That’s exactly what I want! I’ve long since wanted to remind them of their place. Frankly, the only reason Mason is still alive is because he is still of use to me.”

Goosebumps broke out over everyone’s skin.

The Great Marshal has his eye on the Four Hidden Sects?

That courage! That boldness! Wow!

In the meantime, Ares and Julian had run out of Devonville and made their way back to the Thisleton Manor.

But even after they were safe on their home turf, they could still feel their hearts beating erratically.

Ares sighed in disappointment. “Mason was still compromised in the end. We underestimated the Devonville Restricted Zone.”

“Father, I strongly suspect that the number one King Class warrior was in the Spirit Stone mine too. I’m sure that’s how they figured out Mason Carter’s identity,” suggested Julian.

Ares nodded. “Yes, that much is obvious. When we were running away, I could sense a very powerful warrior on our tail. We were very, very close to being caught. The one after us was very likely the strongest of the King Class. We can only pray that he hasn’t learned of our identities.”

“Father, you’ve forgotten that we’re already involved with the Carter sect’s plan to reemerge. Now that we’re technically part of the sect, he wouldn’t dare touch us even if he found out who we were.”

Ares nodded. “Hmm… That’s true. Alright, enough of this. The most important thing now is to save Mason Carter. If anything happens to him, we’ll be implicated too. You stay and keep watch over the Thisleton household. I’ll go to the Carter sect to get help.”

“Very well.”

Ares immediately traipsed over land and water to get to Mount Final.

When he arrived, he knocked on the stone door of the Carter family home.

It was still the same doorkeeper who opened the door.

Ares hurriedly bowed his head. “Hello, Sir. I am Ares of Eurasia.”

Though Ares was a highly respected figure in Eurasia, none of it meant anything to this doorkeeper.

“It’s you again,” Manny, the doorkeeper, huffed impatiently.

“Oh right. Mr. Carter went along with you, didn’t he? Why are you alone here now?”

Ares answered carefully, “Mr. Carter… Mr. Carter has been apprehended.”

What?

Manny leapt three feet into the air. “Who dares touch someone from the Carter family? Are they itching to die?”

Ares explained everything that had happened in the Devonville Restricted Zone to the doorkeeper.

Manny snorted angrily. “The strongest of the King Class? What a load of crap! Whatever he is, he will still tremble before us Carters. I’ll go and meet this person right away.”

Ares fell silent.

The Carters were truly an egocentric bunch.

Even the mere doorkeeper was unafraid of picking a fight with the strongest of the King class.

Ares hurriedly placated him. “Sir, we can’t be reckless. That King Class warrior is a barbarian. He had the guts to harm Mr. Carter, so he will likely do the same to you too. So…”

Manny gave it some thought before speaking up again, “There’s no one in the world who would dare harm us Carters. I’m guessing Mason didn’t reveal who he was, which means they don’t know he’s a part of the Carter sect. That’s the only reason why they dared to recklessly harm him.”

Ares refuted softly, “There’s no way Mr. Carter wouldn’t have revealed his identity.”
