My Aloof Sisters Asked for My Forgiveness

The middle-aged man did not even dare to imagine it. Yet, the mere possibility of it excited him.

Watching Dustin move closer and closer, Ignatius could not help but feel terrified.

"Members of the Martial League, will you really stand by and watch as the Harmon family is killed?" he cried out. The middle-aged man sighed and walked forward.

"Dustin Fox, hold it right there!"

The cry was so intimidating that it overwhelmed the whole room.

"Hmm?" Dustin turned around and eyed the middle-aged man and those around him with a raised eyebrow.

The man carried himself differently. He was exceptional amid typical fighters.

Those standing around him were unusually powerful as well.

They had to be special.

"Who are you?" Dustin asked icily.

"I am Zion Larson, the branch leader of the Martial League in Grayvale!" the middle-aged man said.

"Dustin Fox, you first killed the grandson of the Harmon family, Patrick Harmon, and beheaded him. Now, you want to kill people at Mr. Harmon's birthday banquet. You have broken one of the Ten Sins of the Martial League of Lovellia. As the branch leader of Grayvale, I cannot stand by and let this happen," Zion announced righteously.

"It is the sanctified duty of members of the Martial League to defend justice and maintain the peace in Grayvale!"

With Zion's intervention, the guests felt reassured. Ignatius also let out a sigh of relief.

Zion was one of Grayvale's few ninth grade fighters. As the branch leader of the Martial League, he was in a high position and had a lot of power. He was the highest official and had the most influence here. He could definitely defeat Dustin.

Seeing the falsely righteous members of the Martial League, Dustin's face turned even colder. He looked at them mockingly.

"Defending justice and keeping the peace, huh?" Dustin said before he burst into laughter.

"Where were you twenty years ago when Ignatius Harmon stormed into the Fox family villa to massacre everyone? Where were you when my family's blood flowed like a river and everything was destroyed? Where were you when dozens of people died violently? Where were you when the same people who killed my family took my family villa by force and desecrated the remains of my dead family?"

Dustin's questions shocked them all.

"You..."

The members of the Martial League turned pale. They were not able to respond at all.

Zion looked shocked.

"The case of the Fox family's tragedy has still not been closed If there are any leads, we will definitely investigate and keep you informed," he said because he did not know what else to say. en FindNovel

He knew just how difficult that case was.

Zion had wanted to investigate it, but the chain of events it had triggered had terrified him.

In the span of a day, a dozen secret orders had come in, with each of them having a higher grade than the previous one. The highest one was even a royal order. Thus, he had had no choice but to give up his investigation and not try to intervene anymore.

Dustin did not react in any way to Zion's fumbled response.

He had never had any faith in these so-called defenders of justice.

"Dustin, you cannot kill Ignatius Harmon," Zion said solemnly.

"If the Harmon family comes to any harm, the General of the West will be furious. Then, he will attack Grayvale. You won't be able to handle the consequences!" Dustin smirked disdainfully.

He reached out and grabbed Ignatius by the neck. He was ready to kill him.

"Hmph! We cannot allow your hasty actions here!" Zion was outraged. He attacked instantly.

As the branch leader of the Martial League of Grayvale, Zion was indeed very strong. His strike was powerful.

His strike came with a whoosh of wind that ruffled Dustin's hair and clothes.

The Martial League was meant to control fighters. Additionally, the Harmon family had a special standing, so Zion could not sit by and watch as the Harmon family was decimated. en FindNovel

He had to intervene and was confident that he could resolve the matter.

Dustin's gaze turned cold and impatient.

"Beat it!"

With those words, Dustin made his move.

Before Zion could even see what was going on, his face twisted with the impact.
