Chapter 1430


    Adrian believed firmly that the Prime Minister would stand on his side.


    Frowning, the Prime Minister regarded the masses of Alpha soldiers present.


    “Who ordered this to happen?” The authority in hismanding voice was absolute.


    Adrian pointed an using finger at Sole Wolf and the other Alphas. “They did.”


    The tilt of Sole Wolf’s head was almost tantly insolent. “Yes, I did it. What are you going to do about


    it?”


    Zeke dragged a hand across his face, smiling through the pain. Oh, Sole Wolf, even I have to treat the


    Prime Minister with a healthy amount of respect.


    You truly deserve your nickname, you hot-headed idiot.

    “Sole Wolf,” Adrian shouted angrily. “This is the Prime Minister you’re speaking to. How dare you speak


    to him in such a way? You should show him respect!”


    “So what if it’s the Prime Minister?” Sole Wolf was as defiant as ever. “Even the Prime Minister needs


    to bow to reason, no? Well, I have reason on my side. I won’t be afraid even if the gods themselves


    come down to pass judgment.”


    “You—” Adrian’s words died in his throat as his face flushed an unpleasant shade of brick red.


    The Prime Minister exchanged a certain look with Zeke where thetter merely shrugged helplessly.


    The Prime Minister had heard of the infamous ‘Hothead’ Sole Wolf before and was finally able to


    witness in person today how exactly the reckless man had earned that nickname.


    As such, he was not angry. He asked calmly, “Sole Wolf, why did you kill those men?”


    Sole Wolf’s sudden surprise was almost visible, but his usual cockiness reasserted itself soon enough.


    “We were acting on the orders of the Supreme Leader to protect the Dragon King Sword. But Adrian


    sent his assassins to kill us. The deaths of the Department of Law Enforcement’s personnel are nothing


    to be regretted.”


    Evidently, no matter what happened, Sole Wolf was going to hang doggedly on the fact that they were


    acting on the instructions of the Supreme Leader.


    With the name of the Supreme Leader backing them up, he was eager to see what they could do to


    him.


    Adrian’s face was pale with outrage. “That’s bullshit. You wanted to kill me, so I asked my guards to


    block you and protect me. All you’re doing is just making up problems and wild stories.”


    The insolent tilt of Sole Wolf’s head had returned in full force. “Oh, so you’re saying that our actions on


    the Supreme Leader’s orders are making problems? I swear, I’ll kill you if you insult the Supreme


    Leader again.”


    Sole Wolf flicked his sword meaningfully, letting the light glint coldly off the silver de and strike fear


    into the hearts of his opponents.


    Adrian hastily stumbled to hide behind the Prime Minister.


    Hovering on the border somewhere between exasperation and annoyance, the Prime Minister reflected


    ruefully that this fellow was not just impulsive and straightforward, but also a master at the art of talking


    about absolute nonsense with earnest seriousness.


    Ares made his presence known, greeting, “It’s been a long time, Prime Minister.”


    “An unexpected pleasure, Ares.” The Prime Minister smiled politely.


    Ares nodded. “My son is the source for today’s incident, so I have to be here. I can testify that it was


    true that Sole Wolf attempted to kill Adrian. And as such, Adrian was forced to order his subordinates to


    protect him.”


    “However,” Ares said coldly, “no one would have expected Sole Wolf to have the audacity to kill three of


    the Department of Law Enforcement’s warriors on the spot.”


    “You’re on Adrian’s side, Ares,” Wolf’s Greed spoke up. “Of course, you’d defend him. If that’s how you


    want to do it, my brothers and I can testify as well, and we swear that what Sole Wolf said is the truth.”


    Ares was about to retort when the Prime Minister raised a hand for silence. “Fear not, I hear you. But I


    have my own counsel to keep.”


    He nced at Zeke and said, “I trust you were at the scene just now as well, Mr. Williams. Who among


    them is telling the truth?”


    “That isn’t the point,” Zeke said heavily. “The point is that someone is trying to take the Dragon King


    Sword from me.”


    The Prime Minister showed an almost imperceptible expression of shock. He was privy to the fact that


    Zeke was still Eurasia’s number one warrior, a master of the King ss.


    The Dragon King Sword was bestowed upon him by the Supreme Leader years ago.


    And now that Zeke had truly mastered the King ss, him wielding the Dragon King Sword was


    nothing but reasonable. It was the will of the Supreme Leader, after all.


    If the Prime Minister were being ungracious, he would have said that trying to take the Dragon King


    Sword from Zeke was tantamount to treason.


    Adrian was foolish. That much the Prime Minister could ascertain. He was foolish, but not at fault.


    Now that the rest of the world lived under the impression that Zeke was stripped of his abilities and was


    nothing more than a normal man, them moring to take the Dragon King Sword away from him was


    nothing but reasonable as well.
