Gavin looked at the Northguard Army in front of him and shouted, “King of Northgard, if you continue to hide, your Northguard Army will meet their end!” It appeared as though he was addressing the Northguard Army, but in reality, he was directing his words at the King of Northguard.
He couldn’t fathom that the King of Northguard would remain unflinching under such circumstances!
‘Unless he had no more interest in the Northguard Army!’ thought Gavin.
As soon as Gavin concluded his statement, the Northguard Army erupted in commotion upon hearing his words!
They stared at the fearless Gavin, who stood within the Northguard Imperial Residence, boldly shouting his challenge!
Not one of them dared to utter a word.
Considering the image of Gavin’s fierce assaults, who among them would dare to confront him face to face?
At this moment, the members of the Northguard Army felt their eyes quiver and their hearts race incessantly. They stood immobilized, their bodies trembling uncontrollably, their legs slightly unsteady.
They couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Is Gavin truly intent on annihilating everyone in the Northguard Army? It’s over!”
At this moment, how could he concern himself with safeguarding the King of Northguard? He couldn’t even ensure his own safety.
They only knew that if the King of Northguard did not appear soon, their lives would be over.
The soldiers of the Northguard Army exchanged glances, their eyes silently communicating. ‘Should we make a run for it now?’
Yet, where could they possibly escape to? With Gavin’s formidable prowess, they’d meet a swift demise if they couldn’t cover more than a hundred meters in their flight.
Moreover, even if he could hide from Gavin, the King of Northguard would not. let go of anyone who defected.
The Northguard Army stared blankly at Gavin before them. They involuntarily retreated when he advanced a step.
They kept a safe distance from Gavin.
In that very moment, a loud and commanding voice emanated from the Northguard Imperial Residence.
“Gavin, you insolent brat! How dare you!”
Upon hearing that voice, the soldiers of the Northguard Army were filled with relief and joy.
They exchanged glances and offered each other smiles. In hushed tones, they murmured.
“The Shieldbearers have arrived!”
“They are truly the Shieldbearers. Let’s see if that young fellow still has the audacity to be so cocky. He’s in for trouble!”
“Absolutely. We’ll see if he maintains that arrogance inside the Northguard Imperial Residence. He must be weary of his own life!”
“Damn right, we’ll see. He’ll be crying before long!”
They conversed among themselves.
Gavin turned his attention to the Northguard Army before him. A moment ago, a dark cloud seemed to loom over him, but now, it was as if he had stumbled upon a joyous celebration. His expression transformed into a radiant sun in an instant. He pondered, ‘I vaguely heard the Northguard Army soldiers mention something. about a Shieldbearer. Why would there be a Shieldbearer here? The King of Northguard is truly dragging his feet. Is he also a coward, I wonder? It was clear that using so many people as his shields didn’t seem to bother him at all!’
At that very moment, two middle-aged men emerged from the Northguard. Imperial Residence and came into Gavin’s view.
The two men cast their eyes upon Gavin, who stood before the entrance of the Northguard Imperial Residence. They exchanged frowns and exchanged glances.
One of the men fixed a withering gaze upon Gavin and admonished him disdainfully.
“Are you the audacious one causing a disturbance outside the Northguard Imperial Residence?
“Do you even comprehend the significance of this location?
“How can I let you mess around?
“Get lost if you know what’s good for you!”
Gavin scrutinized the two men positioned before the Northguard Imperial Residence, wondering if one of them was the ruler of Northguard.
It didn’t seem so.
Gavin decided to forgo any assumptions and asked directly.
Gavin lowered his head from the two men.
“Could one of you be the King of Northguard?” Gavin inquired.
Upon hearing Gavin’s question, the two of them stifled their laughter and
exchanged incredulous glances. Then, they gazed at Gavin before them with widened eyes and began to mock him.

“Good heavens, have a look at yourself! How can someone as insignificant as you dare to utter the title of the King of Northguard so casually?” they taunted.
Gavin gazed at the two individuals before him with a sense of exasperation. “These two fools were certainly not what I had expected. If the position of the King of Northguard was so easily attainable, it would have been seized long ago. How could it have endured until now…
A man stepped forward and locked his gaze on Gavin.
“You, a mere piece of trash, dare to inquire about my position? What a ludicrous.
notion!
“Do you know who the King of Northguard is?
“You aren’t even worthy of polishing the King of Northguard’s shoes!”
At that moment, another man casually slipped his left hand into his pocket and regarded Gavin with a serious expression.
“How dare you stand in front of the Northguard Imperial Residence and shout openly!
“It seems you’ve lived long enough and are seeking an early demise, am I correct? “Dream on if you think you can meet our King of Northguard!
“A worthless individual like you doesn’t warrant the King of Northguard’s personal attention. Your presence would only diminish his dignity!”
“The King of Northguard hasn’t made an appearance yet. He’s affording you an opportunity to spare your life. Why don’t you value it?”
Gavin observed as the two of them continued to hurl disparaging remarks his
way.
He pondered, ‘Why is someone nurtured by The King of Northguard barking like. a dog?!”
The paramount task at hand was to locate the King of Northguard. Once he was found, half of the issue would be resolved.
Then, Gavin glanced at the two of them and let out a sigh. He shook his head and muttered to himself.
“It appears as though you are genuinely eager to witness the obliteration of the Northguard Army!”
Upon hearing Gavin’s words, the two men’s anger flared up instantly.
Gavin was about to respond when he heard a loud noise. Reacting swiftly, het dodged the threat and delivered a powerful punch that sent the man tumbling several meters away. The man fell heavily to the ground, succumbing to his injuries on the spot.
The remaining man confronted the defiant Gavin before him and charged forward in haste. Yet, before he could make a move, Gavin seized his arm. In at series of swift, cracking sounds, Gavin dismembered his limbs and hurled him to
the ground. He then mercilessly stomped on the man’s head, ending his life. The two Shieldbearers of the King of Northguard met their immediate demise! “Holy…”
“This…”
“Hiiss… That’s impossible!”
Every member of the Northguard Army stood in stunned silence, gaping at Gavin before them. They didn’t even dare to breathe audibly!
They couldn’t help but wonder, ‘Why is Gavin so incredibly powerful? These two men were the renowned Shieldbearers of the Northguard Imperial Residence! He had managed to eliminate the Shieldbearers of the Northguard Imperial Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

They hadn’t anticipated that the young man before them would possess such formidable strength.
Just moments ago, this group of people had felt a surge of elation, believing that someone would finally put an end to the arrogance of Gavin.
However, they hadn’t anticipated that their would-be savior would end up being subdued by Gavin instead.
They faced a dilemma.
Inside the Northguard Imperial Residence, an individual rushed in hastily and exclaimed.
“Your Highness, we have grave news, grave news!”
The King of Northguard was alone in his mansion, wearing a troubled expression as he paced back and forth with his hands behind his back. He absentmindedly touched the thumb ring on his finger.
A lingering unease weighed heavily on his mind.
Upon hearing the voice, the King of Northguard abruptly lifted his head and cast. a piercing gaze at the person who was delivering the urgent report in a state of panic.
“What’s wrong? Tell me!”
The individual delivering the report stood before the King of Northguard, panting heavily as he continued to convey the information,
“Your Majesty… the two Shieldbearers… have been killed!”
As soon as the messenger concluded his report, the King of Northguard stared at him in sheer astonishment. He couldn’t fathom what he had just heard and was profoundly taken aback!
He wondered, “Dead? How could they possibly be dead? With their level of strength, how could they have failed to handle that insignificant individual… He’s
