Levi Garrison: The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 1504

Unable to withdraw himself from complicity, the Western Monk had gradually come to terms with his own predicament and aligned himself with the other three.

In order to set his own mind at ease, he sought to eliminate all of those who was a threat to him, and was thus more meticulous in this respect than his peers.

“You’re right. We’ve almost overlooked that,” the other three realized.

“Actually, that person is…”

One of the members of the Suicide Squad intuitively responded until he was stopped by another. “That’s right! We’re short of one who’s in hiding with direct evidence of your crimes, and he’d expose you should you ever lay a finger on us!”

That was the only way by which they would be able to save their own lives.

“I don’t believe you! I’ll kill all of you!” the Eastern Beast said as he raised a hand.

“No!” the Western Monk swiftly intervened. “This man is a threat as long as he remains missing. We must find out who he is!”

“I assume that that must be Malcolm Langston. With me now. We must go to Westford!”

And off went the Four Basilisks to hunt down Malcolm.

Hidden in a more discrete location away from Westford, Malcolm was still ferreted out and seized, as in spite of their own limitations, the Four Basilisks were unstoppable with the might of Erudia behind them.

“So, you’re the deserter!” Eastern Beast mocked coldly.

“No… It wasn’t me. While my name’s Malcolm Langston, the person who joined the Suicide Squad was Levi! He’s the deserter, and I’ve nothing to do with it!”

“That’s right. Levi’s the one who went in place of my son. My boy is innocent,” Wilton added.

“Do you think I’ll buy that? Take him away!”

“Why would you be in hiding if this has nothing to do with you?”

Everything sounded like an excuse to the Four Basilisks, as according to the Dragonites, Levi had gone off to confront the Avengers.

Him going to the Suicide Squad in your stead?

Hilarious!

The foursome forcibly took Malcolm away, and halfway on the road, Eastern Beast suddenly sneered, “Die!”

“No, don’t kill me!”

Malcolm seemed to have wanted to say something, but Eastern Beast gave him no chance whatsoever.

Pfft!

Crimson frothed from Malcolm’s mouth as he fell dead upon the floor with eyes wide open.

Nobody expected that sending Levi to die in his place to earn the honorifics would see the wheels of fate turn back on him in such a manner.

Doomed to die in spite of everything, it goes to illustrate that one should not wish ill upon another lest karma should be visited upon oneself.

“Phew!” The Four Basilisks exhaled, relieved that they had at least taken care of this loose end after ridding themselves of the other thirty-eight, and now there was no one else left in this world who was privy to the truth.

At this moment, Levi returned to Oakland City, confounding the Dragonites’ expectations that he might be laying low for some time.

“Your arbitrary desertion of your post has led to the escape of the high command of the Avengers from Erudia! This is a serious dereliction of duty, so what have you to say for yourself?” the council members of the Dragonites demanded of Levi.

Levi nodded. “I admit to this breach of duty, but…”

“But what?”

“I went to the Ether and diminished the forces of the Avengers by half, and also rid us of the Northern Demon! I do not ask for anything but the opportunity to redeem my errors with my deeds!”

That sent the entire room into a silence which was only broken after a considerable amount of time.

“Are you out of your mind, Levi? It was obviously the Four Basilisks who have defeated the Northern Demon!”
