Deities: Starting From Goblins chapter-472-287-1

Chapter 472: 287_1

At this moment outside the mansion gate, dozens of guards were lying on the ground. The remaining hundred or so were trembling and afraid to step forward. Logan’s power was too terrifying, a random strike had severely injured dozens.

“Your Westman Family is too weak, every one of you hiding and afraid to come out. Is this all you have – a group of shrimp soldiers and crab generals? These people don’t even have a foot in the Mythical Realm and you dare to claim that the Westman Family is one of the top clans?”

Logan scornfully ridiculed. He was surrounded on all sides by three layers of people, all of them watching as Logan pointed out their shortcomings boldly. He dared to provoke the Westman Family with only two guards, truly not aware of the terrifying strength of the Westman Family. Once the stronger members of the Westman Family come out, Logan and his companions are certainly destined to die.

“I vaguely remember last year, a Perfect King Seat was being arrogant, and then a Dominator Realm member of the Westman Family took him down with just three moves. He was at death’s door. If the City Lord hadn’t stepped in to save him, he would have descended to Hell by now.”

“The two of them are clearly outnumbered, they must be strangers here. They have no idea what the Westman Family represents in this city. Even the City Lord has to show respect. The younger generation nowadays do not understand their place.”

The mocking spectators felt certain that Logan and his companions were doomed, it was just a matter of time. If the Westman Family showed compassion, they may not even feel the pain by the time it’s over. On the other hand, they may endure suffering, but the very thought of it made them shudder.

Although some people were exclaiming in surprise as they recognized Logan and his companions: “I saw them previously at the inn. They beat up the Young Master of the Westman Family, and only stopped when the family head intervened to resolve the conflict. Both parties shook hands and made peace before leaving each other. How come they are at the Westman Family’s doorstep again?”

“Continuing to brag, the Westman Family Head made peace with them?” As the crowd heard this, peals of laughter erupted. They suspected that these people had been hired by Logan to boost his image. The Head of the esteemed Westman Family was ruthless, it would be impossible for him not to draw blood once he’s involved.

The man didn’t offer any explanation: “Don’t believe me if you don’t want to.” Anyway, the matter was really strange. If Logan and his companions were really the same people from the inn, it would all be clear once the Westman Family showed up. He was curious to see how the Head of the Westman Family would react. Would he continue to shake hands and make peace with Logan and his companions?

Before, when they were at the inn, it was possibly a misunderstanding which allowed both parties to save face. But now, Logan and his companions had come right to the Westman Family’s doorstep. This was indirectly declaring war on the Westman Family. If the Head of the Westman Family doesn’t retaliate, it would be a laughing stock, and how would the Westman Family continue to stand in this city? Any random person could provoke them.

Shingo Butcher broke out in a cold sweat, turning to Logan, he said: “That’s too high profile, isn’t it? The three of you came right up to the Westman Family’s doorstep. It would have been better to send a letter to the Westman Family Head. The way you’ve come, it’s impossible to minimize the situation. Both sides will inevitably fight. We are in the middle of a storm.”

“It doesn’t matter. Since they used 20,000 Spirit Stones to humiliate us, naturally, I will not show any mercy to the Westman Family.” Logan’s eyes were deep-set. The Westman Family had angered him; they should pay the price, shouldn’t they?

I was very generous to the Westman Family before, allowing the Family Head to leave safely. They just needed to give 200,000 Spirit Stones. But the Westman Family was the first to break their promise. Logan had already shown his benevolence to them. Don’t think that just because they have several Dominators in the family, they can bully anyone they wish.

“Logan, aren’t you going a bit too far? We agreed to end this, yet you come to my doorstep and harm dozens of my guards. Do you really think the Westman Family has no one capable of dealing with you?”

At this moment the head of the Westman Family appeared, anger visible in his eyes. Even if Logan was a bit stronger than him, the Westman Family had three in the Dominator Realm. He had already given out 200,000 Spirit Stones. Wasn’t that enough, or was Logan trying to seize the entire Westman Family? If that’s the case, he had to see if Logan had the capability to do so.

Logan laughed coldly: “Originally, I wanted to show you some mercy, but since things have come to this, let me speak frankly. It was you who couldn’t defeat me and sought reconcilement. You promised me 200,000 Spirit Stones and I respected your dignity, but who did you think you were humiliating when you sent me 20,000 Spirit Stones?”

“20,000?” The Westman Family Head looked startled, “You received the Spirit Stones, there’s no need to distort the truth. I personally took 200,000 Spirit Stones from the treasury, how could it turn into 20,000? Are you trying to cheat me by not acknowledging the transaction?” frёewebηovel.cѳm

“I, Logan, have no need to lie. And when I promise something, I keep to my word. I genuinely only received 20,000. The man you sent also had an arrogant attitude, as if 20,000 were some kind of enormous benefaction.”

Logan scoffed. Shingo Butcher also stepped forward. He was, after all, a bystander. He truly saw that Logan had only received 20,000, and he related the whole incident accurately.

Since even Shingo Butcher was testifying on behalf of Logan, the Head of the Westman Family was seriously stunned. Shingo Butcher wouldn’t lie. The name Butcher came from his ruthless actions and straightforward personality. He was certain that he had sent his trusted aide, so why did 200,000 abruptly reduce to a tenth?

Even if the elders found out about the transaction midway and took a large portion of it, his trusted aide wouldn’t fail to be honest with him. Now, the Head of the Westman Family was completely stumped. Where did the 180,000 missing Spirit Stones go? He had initially thought that Logan was not acknowledging the transaction after receiving the 200,000 Spirit Stones, but apparently that was not the case.

Bart Cloud gave a playful smile as he figured it out. “You don’t have a problem with Logan. There must have been an issue during the transaction. Your trusted aide must have embezzled the stones. He took 180,000 Spirit Stones for himself and only handed over 20,000. He was banking on Logan not coming to confront you.”

Logan also seemed to understand. He had never believed that the Head of the Westman Family would break his promise. Bart Cloud’s explanation made sense of everything. No wonder the Head of the Westman Family also looked frustrated, while wrongly believing that Logan was not acknowledging the transaction after taking the stones.

The Head of the Westman Family instinctively didn’t want to believe it. His trusted aide had been with him for ten years. He had been trustworthy in handling matters in the past, how could he suddenly steal 180,000 Spirit Stones for his own benefit? Had he grown such a big heart? The more he thought about it, the more Bart Cloud’s explanation made sense. It was the only way to explain the missing stones.

Furthermore, only he and his trusted aide knew about the handover of the 200,000 Spirit Stones. So, how did the elders come to know about it? The accounts of the mansion were usually checked every six months, and he had thought the same previously. But when he received a notice from the elders asking him for an explanation, he was completely caught off guard.

The Head of the Westman Family took a deep breath and solemnly said, “Don’t rush, you three. I will get to the bottom of this matter. If my trusted aide has indeed embezzled, I certainly won’t condone this behavior. This is about more than just the missing 180,000 Spirit Stones; this nearly caused a fight between our two parties.”

After giving an order, he personally led a few dozen people to apprehend his trusted aide, only to find that he was missing. In that moment, the Head of the Westman Family was certain: his trusted aide had run away with all the Spirit Stones.
