Chapter 76
On the other hand, the one–eyed man’s group surrendered as soon as they saw that Blade had brought so many people there. After a brief conversation, they squatted on the ground and put down the weapons in their hands. When Blade arrived, he addressed Severin respectfully as ‘ Mister Severin‘ and assisted Severin with subduing the entire group. Severin then thanked them and went upstairs alone.
When Blade saw Severin coming down the stairs with Diane in his arms, he immediately stepped forward and asked concernedly, “Mister Severin, is your woman all right? Just saw the word and I’ll make sure these people won’t live to see the sunrise tomorrow!”
Severin smiled faintly. “Thank you for the gesture. My wife is fine, but I’m just curious why you. were willing to help me?”
Blade grinned sheepishly, and came up with a random excuse: “Well, the main reason is that Draco Hall has beef with the Cedar Gang.”
“I don’t think it’s that simple,” Severin remarked pointedly.
It
was then that Blade answered him awkwardly. “Would you be okay with coming to Draco Hall tomorrow? Our supreme commander wishes to meet you. We have been searching for you everywhere today, and we went to your house to look for you! That’s when we found out that moved, and our lead ended right there!”
“Oh, your boss wants to see me?” Severin frowned and was a little surprised.

Blade’s heart skipped a beat and he secretly thought to himself, ‘This man really does keep a super low profile. Doesn’t he know that he’s the supreme leader of Dracodeus Temple? Why is he still trying to play dumb at this time?” NôvelDrama.Org (C) content.
Nevertheless, he did not reveal Severin’s true identity to anyone there since he knew that the supreme leader of Dragondeus Temple had always been an enigma. Revealing Severin’s identity might well make him unhappy. As a result, he could not answer that question directly and merely smiled awkwardly while saying, “Yes. He wants to see you. You’ll know why once you go there tomorrow!”
“Sure. I’ll visit you tomorrow when I have the time!” Severin agreed with a smile. In all honesty, he was also a little curious about Draco Hall, and since their men had lent him a hand earlier and saved him a lot of trouble, it was only right that he should thank their boss in person.
“What happened?” Jada and the others had finally arrived downstairs, and the scene before them left her completely speechless. Some of the people were injured, while others had been subdued and were squatting on the ground without daring to move.
The total number of people from Draco Hall was quite intimidating, as the entire restaurant was filled with their people and many more were standing outside. Blade glanced insipidly at Jada and said, “Sorry to cause trouble, Miss Jada, but we’ve got some scores to settle with One–Eye’s people.”
Once he said that, he turned to Severin and urged him. “You can leave with your family now, Mister
Severin!”
“That I will!” Severin nodded. He turned around, glanced indifferently at Jada’s group, and said to Judith and Maurice, “Mom, Dad, Selene, let’s go, go home!”
“Oh, okay!”
Judith and Maurice had never seen something like that happen before, and they were drenched in a cold sweat due the sheer fright. Once they heard that they could leave, they nodded immediately and carried Selene out.
Severin glanced at Blade, smiled once more, and walked out with Diane in his arms.
“What’s the meaning of this? If you’ve got some scores to settle with One–Eye, then why’d you let Severin and the others leave? I’m keeping them here because they wanted to do a dine–and–dash! They haven’t even paid for their meal yet!” Jada demanded an answer from Blade because she was peeved to see Severin and the others leave just like that.
Blade might be a tough guy, but he was very careful with his words. He smiled at her. “Your restaurant is running a scam. The cost of their meal was sixteen thousand dollars, but you asked them to pay a hundred and sixty thousand dollars. Where did you get the nerve to accuse them of doing a dine–and– dash? The situation I saw today left a bad taste in my mouth, so if you want to remain in business, I suggest you’d better keep your mouth shut instead of spouting all that nonsense. If you shoot your mouth off again, you might as well say goodbye to your restaurant. I’ll let everyone know that your restaurant has a reputation for scamming its customers. I remember your restaurant brand having several stores. About a dozen, if memory serves?”
