At that moment, Jerrick could only hear buzzing in his head, wishing if only it was really some construction work because it seemed to him that Kingsley and Leroy were going to level the entire Mount Rochwick. "Oh, dear. I'm so screwed."
He then reached for his phone in a panicky manner, attempting to call William of the Jacob Family, who was in charge of Mount Rochwick's tourism department. "Hello, Mr. Jacob. We're in huge trouble now. Something wrong is happening here at Mount Rochwick. Please come here and see for yourself. There are two men here trying to carry out some construction work, despite my warning. They even brought a dozen construction vehicles with them. Yes, that's right. I don't know who they are, so I implore you to come here and see it for yourself."
It was only after Jerrick hung up the call that he felt slightly relieved. He then angrily walked up to Leroy and threatened him. "Hey kid, I don't care who you are, but if you don't want to get into some serious trouble, you better leave with your people
because Mr. Jacob is on his way here now."
However, Leroy ignored the manager's threat. Instead, he turned his attention to Kingsley and politely asked, "When are we going to begin our work?"
Kingsley looked at the dozen men with safety helmets and said, "Before you came here, I believe your superior already walked you through your mission today, which is—to dig up what I'm looking for from the ground!" Needless to say, Kingsley was referring to his late parents' remains.
After hearing the man's words, every construction worker responded together with a loud and affirmative hum. "Yes, sir!"
In the meantime, Jerrick was shocked by their thunderous voices and unconquerable might, which made him wonder if they were really construction workers or soldiers. At that moment, a few dozen employees who worked at Mount Rochwick arrived, including the tour guides, security guards, waiters, and waitresses, as well as the janitors. It appeared that everyone else who worked around Mount Rochwick put their work aside and came as soon as they learned the news. When they saw what happened, they exclaimed and began to ask questions.
"What's going on, Mr. Kidman?"
"What are these trucks doing here? Are they here to mess around?!"
Backed by his subordinates, Jerrick started to feel more confident. Thus, he pointed at those construction workers with safety helmets and said, "Go! Rough them up so hard that they will not be able to get up again! I want to see who still dares to carry out the construction work here!" Upon hearing their manager's order, the employees rubbed their fists and squared off, wanting to seize the opportunity to impress Jerrick, since Kingsley and Leroy's men were far outnumbered.
On the other hand, the tourists who were hiking Mount Rochwick were all drawn by the commotion as they surrounded the people in conflict and discussed it in murmurs. "What's going on? Why are the employees from Mount Rochwick fighting the construction workers?"
"I don't know, but I can tell for sure that it won't end for those construction workers,
considering how seriously outnumbered they are."
As more and more people came closer to investigate the commotion, Jerrick waved his hand and pressed on with his order, unwilling to let any more unpleasant surprises happen. "What are you waiting for?! Beat them up now!" Seconds after he shouted out his order, the few dozen people charged at the construction workers like a troop of soldiers who were rushing toward their enemies on the battlefield.
