327  An Annoying Youngster

Nightshire City, Entrance Gate.

"Sigh. I wonder, when will city mistress and general Valeria regain consciousness? I feel like something is missing in our city without them." the red-haired man spoke abruptly.

"Let's just hope city mistress and general Valeria will regain consciousness quickly." Captain Noah uttered.

"I'm furious whenever I remember that bastard." The red-haired man stated. "If they did not attack us, city mistress and general Valeria would not be in a coma now."

"If you are angry at Aidan, why don't you go to the city square and torture him with the citizens?" the blue-haired man said.

"Should I?" the red-haired man suddenly wanted to torture Aidan too.

"I understand your feeling, but we need to prote-" Captain Noah stopped his words halfway when he saw six people walking toward them. "Who are they?"

"Do they want to kill Ace too?" the green-haired man inquired.

"Maybe." Captain Noah responded.

At the same time, Levi and the others were walking leisurely. They did not use a carriage because their carriage was destroyed by magical beasts yesterday.

"Sienna, we have reached our destination." Levi spoke abruptly. "Should we find a hotel first or go to a restaurant immediately?"

"Let's find a hotel first." Sienna responded.

"Alright." Like usual, Levi always said yes to her words.

When they were right in front of the city gate, Levi's happy face turned confused.

"What?! A barrier?" Levi was shocked when he found out that Nightshire City was enveloped by a barrier.

Unlike Levi, Sienna was not surprised.

She already knew about this from the third princess, so she could still act calmly.

As Levi was in a state of shock, Captain Noah's voice rang out.

"Who are you? Why did you come to our city?" Captain Noah did not act politely like usual because he thought they came to kill Ace.

Instead of answering Captain Noah's question, Levi inquired, "Why did you set up a barrier? Dispel it now! We want to enter your city."

Of course, Captain Noah did not listen to Levi's words because his job was to protect their city. "Answer my question! Who are you? Why did you come to our city?" Captain Noah repeated his question. Levi gritted his teeth in anger.

No one dared to act rudely to him before, so he could not suppress his anger, especially when he was with Sienna.

"I will give you three seconds to dispel the barrier. Otherwise, I will order my subordinates to destroy it." Levi believed his subordinates could destroy the barrier easily because they were powerful awakeners.

"Sigh." Captain Noah sighed. "I hate dealing with an annoying youngster like him." "Me too." the red-haired man added. "I'm sure he is a spoiled kid." The blue-haired man uttered.

The anger within him grew bigger when Captain Noah and the others still did not want to dispel the barrier.

"You don't want to dispel the barrier, huh?" Levi was breathless with anger.

'It seems like they don't know who I am.'

He did not want to lose face in front of his crush, so he ordered his subordinates to destroy the barrier.

"Destroy it!" Levi retorted.

Levi brought two subordinates with him.

Their names were Hugo and Zak. Hugo was an awakener at the Master rank, while Zak was at the Grandmaster rank. Of course, they were not ordinary awakeners because the Holmes family only wanted powerful subordinates.

"Understood, young master." Hugo and Zak immediately attacked the barrier.

Even though Hugo and Zak's attacks were powerful, Captain Noah and the others still acted calmly.

Many powerful awakeners had tried to destroy their barrier, but none of them managed to do that, so Captain Noah and the others believed Hugo and Zak would fail too.

And what they had guessed was right.

They also failed to destroy the barrier!

Hugo and Zak had attacked the barrier many times.

They also had used their strongest skill to attack the barrier.

However, the barrier was still fine.

A single crack line even did not appear on the barrier.

The barrier could only be destroyed by awakeners at the Exalted rank and above, so even though they continued to attack the barrier, they would never be able to destroy it.

"What the fuck are you doing?" Levi was even angrier when his two subordinates still could not destroy the barrier. "Hurry up and destroy it!"

"Attack again!" Zak uttered.

"Aggh! Break for me!" Hugo used his strongest skill again.

As Zak and Hugo were attacking the barrier, Captain Noah's subordinates laughed at them.

"Haha."

"Keep attacking the barrier, old man."

"Don't give up. Keep attacking it."

"You can do it."

"Yes. You can do it."

"Haha."

Even though they seemed to be cheering for Zak and Hugo, they were actually making fun of them.

They had seen many awakeners fail to destroy the barrier, so they acted like they were enjoying a circus. "Damn it! Nightshire City is only a small city, so how could they have a strong barrier like this?" Levi was quivering with anger.

'I will lose face if they can't destroy it.'

He kept cursing in his head.

Sienna's subordinate, who was on her right side, uttered, "Young miss, should we help them destroy the barrier?"

Like Levi, Sienna also brought two subordinates with her.

Their names were Max and Sophie.

The one who had just spoken to Sienna was Sophie, an awakener at the Grandmaster rank.

Sophie was close to Sienna because she was Sienna's personal bodyguard since she was little.

"No." Sienna responded instantly.

Max and Sophie immediately exchanged a glance with each other.

They did not understand Sienna's decision.

They thought she wanted to enter Nightshire City, but she told them not to help Zak and Hugo.

Of course, they did not say anything because they were only her subordinates. "I knew they had set up a barrier, but I did not expect it to be this strong." Sienna mused.

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!" Levi could not suppress his anger anymore. "You, city guard captain. I order you to dispel this barrier now!"

"Destroy it if you can." Levi was not his superior, so Captain Noah did not want to listen to him.

"You!" Levi's face was red from anger. "Do you know who I am?"

"Do you think I care about it?" Captain Noah uttered.

Levi was unhappy with Captain Noah's answer and behavior. "I'm the second child of the Holmes family in the capital of Xiriel Kingdom."

He then continued, "My family is one of five big families in Xiriel Kingdom. We have many powerful subordinates and have great influence in the Luvrela Territory. You better listen to me, or else you will regret it later."

"Tch! Does he think we are afraid of his background?"

"I hate someone who relies on a family name and influence." "Me too."

"Does he think his family is the strongest family in the Luvrela region?"

The city guards disliked Levi even more.

Just because he was from a big family, he wanted everyone to listen to him.

Who was he?

A powerful awakener?

He even treated everyone nicely. 14:25

No!

A king?

No!

The Ruler?

No!

He was only a young man who could only use his family name to scare others.

There was nothing special about him.

He was even still at the Elite rank despite being twenty.

Compared to Ace, the difference between them was like heaven and earth.

Ace was still eighteen, yet he was already at the Exalted rank.

But even so, Ace had never acted arrogantly like him.

He even treated everyone nicely. If they had to say something about them, they would say Ace was an angel, while Levi was a demon.

"I don't care who you are or how powerful your family is. We don't accept travelers now, so go back to your place." Captain Noah said fearlessly.

Levi shifted his gaze from Captain Noah to Sienna.

'She is angry.'

He clenched his fist when he saw her expression.

"Sienna, don't worry. I will make him dispel this barrier later." Levi uttered.

Sienna did not say anything and only stared at Levi.

'What a stupid person!'

She liked it because everything went according to the plans.

"Hey, just go back to your house."

"That's right. Just go back to your place."

"Un, un."

The city guards said one by one.

As Levi was looking at them angrily, Ace's voice rang out.

"What's going on?" Ace inquired.
