Sylvester was stunned, and he stared at Nathan with a frown. “You there! What did you just say? I didn't quite catch that. Could you repeat it for me?”
Meanwhile, Skeleton King and his gang quietly surrounded Nathan and the others.
Nathan raised his head and looked at Sylvester calmly, then said in an icy voice, “Your ears didn't deceive you. You heard that correctly. I said that you disgust me.”
Enraged, Sylvester let out a bark of angry laughter. “I think you're all in cahoots! Since you have a death wish, I shall send you all to meet your maker together.”
Nathan replied contemptuously, “You don't even know who I am. I think we don't need to arrest you and let you have a trial. We should just shoot you right here, right now.”
Sylvester's face contorted with rage. Raising his voice, he yelled, “Skeleton King!”
Visibly infuriated, he motioned for Skeleton King and his gang to make their move.
Skeleton King raised his gun and pointed it at Nathan.
When Colin and Kraven saw that the thugs were about to attack, they prepared to take action.
However, neither of them expected there would be someone who would react even faster than them.
The person who retaliated was none other than Sevan, who had been sitting next to Nathan and drinking alcohol.
In his eyes, he regarded Nathan as his master.
Nathan treated him well, gave him food and drink, and taught him many different things.
Despite not being the sharpest tool in the shed, Sevan could still sense Nathan's care and warmth.
Besides that, his beast-like ability to sense danger allowed him to identify Skeleton King's malicious intentions toward Nathan at once.
Hence, his fury flared up instantly, and he launched himself forward.
Skeleton King saw a blurry shape whizz past, then realized that Sevan was already right in front of him. It frightened him so much that he hurriedly pulled the trigger.
Crack!
Sevan ripped Skeleton King's arm from his body, then tossed the broken arm with the gun onto the floor.
“Arghhh!”
Skeleton King lost his left arm just like that, and he let out an agonized howl.
However, another crack rang out as Sevan twisted and snapped Skeleton King's neck, cutting the latter's cry off abruptly.
