The War God's Homecoming novel Chapter 31

Chapter 31 Master Eight

"Alright, I'll give you a chance!" Egbert said. "If you can knock them off, all my people here, I'll give them the price difference. Of course, if you fail, they won't be able to stop themselves and I can't guarantee what kind of harm they will cause to you!"

"I'll give you a chance too!" Billy put down his teacup and looked at Egbert. "Tomorrow morning, you personally go to the community and apologize door-to-door, then make up the money, I will let you off this time. How do you feel about it?"

Egbert laughed out loud and said, "Interesting, it's been a long time since I heard someone say 'let me off the hook' like that for me!"

After speaking, he stood up and walked to a nearby chair, then beckoned to his men and said, "Get started! Don't let them die."

Then, dozes of men rushed to Billy and Casey with weapons.

"Too bad, you made the wrong choice!" Billy shrugged his shoulders.

Before he finished his words, Casey had already moved.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

In less than three minutes, Egbert's men lay down like ripe lobsters, howling in agony. Sweats dripped down Egbert's forehead, and his face twisted in shock. At the same time, he flicked his wrist and the cigar fell onto his pants, making a sizzling sound.

"Who... who are you?" He swallowed hard and trembled as he looked at Casey after shaking off the ash from the cigarette butt. He couldn't help but be shocked. In just over two minutes, all fifty people had fallen. He had never met someone as capable as Casey in the underground world of Ozin before. He wasn't stupid and thus he realized Casey was not an ordinary person. His heart couldn't help but skip a beat. Did he provoke someone today?

"So? Do you want to call for backup? I can wait for you!" After Casey returned to his seat, Billy looked at Egbert and spoke calmly.

Egbert took a deep breath before speaking up. "We don't have to be enemies just because we haven't met before. Can we become friends instead?"

"If you don't call anyone else, then go back and prepare your money! If I don't see you in the neighborhood tomorrow morning, your company won't survive!"

"It's better to leave some room for ourselves so that we can meet again later on friendly terms." Egbert took another deep breath before speaking again in a low voice.

"It looks like you're still not convinced?" Billy interrupted him impatiently. "Don't waste my time anymore! Call whoever you want within half an hour!"

It had been a long time since someone had ignored Egbert like that. After a brief pause, Egbert said, "If that's what you want, then so be it!"

He then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. When the call connected, he spoke into the receiver.

"I don't think you two are from Ozin, are you?" After hanging up the phone, Egbert regained some confidence and turned to Billy and Casey.

"Is the call over? Just wait on the side while we eat. Don't disturb us." After speaking, Billy shouted loudly at the crowd of people watching from afar, "Waiter, bring our food!"
