Chapter 134
“I am surprised . ”
Sougen said as he played with his mustache .
“I didn’t think Seitens.h.i.+ is the type of person to wake people up in the middle of the night to host meetings . What an eye-opener . ”
Seitens.h.i.+ remained calm despite the verbal provocations . She nodded with an apologetic look .
“This is a rather pressing matter, please forgive me for bringing it up . ”
“Of course, I am not so petty as to get angry over such a small impa.s.se . ”
Sougen said with a very unpleasant look on his face .
“Alright, let’s not waste any more time, what is it?”
A hand held Seitens.h.i.+ back from approaching him .
Sougen frowned when he saw this .
In front of two rulers of extremely large regions, Noah entered the scene as he stared at Sougen who looked like he really didn’t want to deal with him .
“Seitens.h.i.+-sama, leave this to me, okay?”
“Guild master Noah . ”
She stopped in shock, she didn’t think Noah would interrupt her job .
“You?”
Sougen laughed out loud . He looked livid .
“Know your place, what makes you think you’re qualified to talk to me?”
“My qualifications?”
Noah didn’t say anything, he didn’t need to . The cold look he gave Sougen was enough to remind him of what transpired last time when Noah verbally wrecked Sougen over the issue of social standing .
Noah kept his eagle eyes on Sougen .
“Saitake Sougen, you’re the one who sent a.s.sa.s.sins after Seitens.h.i.+, right?”
The mood turned still .
She had a look of disbelief as he didn’t think Noah would accuse Saitake outright like this .
Clearly, Saitake wasn’t expecting this allegation, his facial muscles twitched .
Anyone could guess that it was him, after all, he had all the motives to do that and all to gain from Seitens.h.i.+’s untimely death . It would speed up his process of making the whole world bow to his will .
But, blaming a person without concrete proof, a ruler no ess, that is simply too foolish .
The bodyguards looked at Noah with judging glances . Seitens.h.i.+ also got a bit anxious .
Taking a lesson from history, Sougen knew Noah is smarter than this, he knew he is up to something as a chill went down his spine . He used a leer on Noah .
“Civil defense officer, are you defaming me?”
“Defamation?”
Eyes still as the calm sea before a storm, he pressed on with immense pressure, even Sougen felt like he was pushed back by an invisible force .
“I think you’re the one who is clearest as to the veracity of my claims, isn’t that so?”
“You…”
Sougen’s facial muscles twitched again .
The four bodyguards around Sougen whipped out their guns immediately .
“Stand your ground! Take another step closer and I will order my men to gun you down for threatening behaviors!”
Noah ignored him as he inched closer .
“Guild master Noah!”
Seitens.h.i.+ completely lost control of the situation as she yelled inv ain for Noah to cease his actions .
The four guards took offense at Noah’s flagrant disregard for them . They pulled the triggers on their guns .
