“I thought Uncle Galen said that we’re not supposed to use longswords…” Maron asked out of the blue, the thought suddenly occurring to him.

“I don’t know, you should ask Uncle Galen,” David said with a shrug of his shoulders as he took the longsword back from Maron.

“Maron, go practice and train hard. Don’t compare yourself to David, just be the best version of yourself!” Galen said in a solemn voice as he walked to the two of them.

After hearing the familiar words, Maron hung his head low, picked the warhammer up from the ground, and began to train.

David felt as if Galen’s words had given Maron yet another blow.

“David, employees across all ranks of Leeson Security have been taken away for investigation. The company has also been shut down, so we just have to wait for news now,” Galen informed him.

Just now, he had been contacting some people to get them to begin the investigation on Leeson Security, a company that had no powerful background or the slightest ability to retaliate when faced with a thorough, official investigation.

“Uncle Galen, sorry to trouble you. Thank you!” David thanked him gratefully.

“David, hurry and grow up. I might need your help in the future!” Galen joked with a chuckle.

To David, it was just a joke Galen had cracked, but to Galen, it was the truth.

It was rather chaotic in Pelan City today and the huge battle between the nine armorers caused massive noises that made the hearts of the people nearby quiver.

Fortunately, it wasn’t long before the police came to deal with it.

Not long after, the premises of the largest security company in Pelan City, Leeson Security Company, was surrounded by a large number of police officers. The authorities had even sent several armorers to accompany them.

The general manager of Leeson Security, the clerks, even the janitors were all taken away. All of the company’s optical computers were confiscated too.

After the police left, the place was cordoned off by Skynet, and the red screen displayed information stating that Leeson Security had been designated as a restricted area. All illegal trespassers would be tracked by Skynet.

David spent the day practicing the Stormy Warhammer technique in the underground gym. Although he was tempted to go back to his bedroom to check on what the Shadow Servant had obtained, Galen valued him greatly and demanded that he continue practicing, again and again.

David and Maron trained until around five in the afternoon, until they were both dripping with sweat. They had consumed an enormous amount of the Class 1 strengthened meat as well.

Of course, the gap between the two of them did not decrease just because of the passage of time. After practicing for a day and getting stimulated by the battle between armorers, David’s true level of Warhammer Mastery had almost reached the 50% Intermediate Level.

He would probably be on par with Amos, the head of the Strat Hotel security team, in just one day.

On the other hand, Maron was still only at the pre-Beginner level. If he wasn’t compared to David, the fact that he had learned most of the Stormy Warhammer Technique at all would be considered quite an achievement.

“Okay, that’s all for today!” Galen announced with a clap of his hands as he looked at the exhausted duo.

“Great, my arms feel like they’re going to break!” Maron said, shaking his arms and placing his hammer on the ground.

“Maron, your aptitude isn’t great, so you must practice more,” Galen reminded Maron.

Maron became dumbfounded when he heard the comment on his aptitude. It was a huge blow to him.

However, he immediately calmed down when he saw David beside him.

“Uncle Galen must have been comparing me to David! That’s all!” he continuously repeated in his mind.

“David, the lead at Leeson Security has been broken. Supervisor Gilson, who served you, has committed suicide at the police station,” Galen informed David, sounding extremely displeased with the police system.

Everyone knew that it was practically impossible to commit suicide in the police station, where there were surveillance cameras and watchful policemen everywhere. How could Supervisor Gilson have committed suicide so easily?

However, they were not on Galen’s turf, and his men could not find anything out there. They could only rely on the local police system, but it would be hard to find out anything else when the trail of leads was broken.
