Chapter 470 Great Ape, Deputy Head of Gorillas
The young, pretty girl, only eighteen years old, worked at a hotel in Plainwater Town to earn money to support her family. However, she caught the eye of Casimir Steer, the young master of the Steer family, who wanted her to accompany him for meals, drinks, and more – everything! Refusing to comply, she managed to escape from the hotel. Upon returning home, Casimir Steer, accompanied by a group of henchmen, pursued her with malicious intent. Astonishingly, in front of her parents, he proceeded to violate her.
Coincidentally, Sean happened to pass by at that moment, leading to a confrontation. Sean acted out of a sense of justice, finding the henchmen to be nothing more than weaklings, easily subdued by his swift actions. Concerned about the family’s safety, Sean stayed for dinner to guard against any possible retribution from the Steer family.
Transforming himself, Sean’s sole aim was the Hall of Jade. To infiltrate it, he needed to attract their attention and causing a stir in Plainwater Town was the simplest and most effective way to achieve this. This incident provided an opportunity to take action against the Steer family!
“Not in a rush,” Sean said with a faint smile as he calmly ate. “I’m leaving. What will you do? I will wait here since the Steer family seems unwilling to let this go.”
“I’m curious to see what they can do to me,” he added, exuding unparalleled confidence.
However, his words startled the family seated across him. They were about to explain how formidable the Steer family was when, suddenly, a young man’s furious voice echoed from the yard, “Fine! Excellent! You have guts!”
It was Casimir Steer, the instigator of the entire situation. Despite being kicked by Sean and sustaining several broken ribs, he now lay in the yard, spitting blood and showing signs of recovery, enough to speak.
“Aren’t you a local?” he scoffed, his bravado growing as he calculated the Steer family’s imminent arrival. He spat out blood and, enduring the pain, sneered, “You should have figured out by now what happens when you mess with the Steer family in this tiny corner of Plainwater Town!”
“Just wait! When our people arrive, I’ll make sure you beg for mercy, but find none!”
Casimir Steer was accustomed to flaunting his authority in Plainwater Town. Despite Sean’s prowess, the Steer family had numerous skilled practitioners. In his eyes, Sean, being alone and relatively young, stood no chance against the Steer family’s practitioners.NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Thus, despite his broken ribs, Casimir Steer remained fearless, consumed by a raging desire for revenge.
“Goodness!” the family across from Sean trembled at Casimir Steer’s threat.
“No worries,” Sean said nonchalantly, seemingly unconcerned about the Steer family. “There’s a dog barking outside. Pay it no mind.”
With that, Casimir Steer spat out more blood in frustration.
“Look, young master!” one of the henchmen suddenly exclaimed, his expression revitalized. “They’re here! Our reinforcements have arrived!”
“Looks like Osvaldo’s carriage!!”
Three luxurious cars were speeding toward them, visible even from the yard due to the suburban openness. According to the middle-aged woman, Casimir Steer was the third in line among the current generation of the Steer family. This meant that the incoming person was Osvaldo Steer, his second brother!
In an instant, the henchmen, previously listless, became animated at the sight of the approaching vehicles.
“Is this Osvaldo Steer… powerful?” Sean asked casually while continuing his meal.
“Yes,” the pretty girl nodded emphatically. “Members of the Steer family frequently dine at our hotel. Osvaldo, with his volatile temper, often resorts to violence. He’s as good as ten men in a fight!”
“I’ve heard he’s… some kind of early-stage practitioner, very formidable!”
“That’s why,” she continued, “you should leave as soon as possible!”
She, like others, doubted that Sean alone could contend with the entire Steer family.
“Early-stage?” Sean raised an eyebrow. “Is it early-stage dark energy?”
To his disappointment, Sean realized he had been waiting for quite a while only to encounter a mere early-stage dark energy practitioner. It seemed that the Steer family underestimated him. Frustrated, he wondered how to escalate the situation without losing face.
“If that’s the case,” Sean said with disdain, “even if you dig up every ancestor of the Steer family, it won’t save you.”
Before anyone could respond, the rapidly approaching luxury cars came to a halt at the gate. Figures poured out, swiftly attending to Casimir Steer and the others on the groundThe leader, a young man and two elderly individuals, stepped forward. Sean didn’t need to look at them to know their identities – Osvaldo Steer and his two mid-stage dark energy bodyguards.
“I’ll show you what it means to cross the Steer family!” Osvaldo raged, seeing the injuries on his brother and the others.
However, the two elderly men restrained him. One of them, more cautious, scrutinized Sean and inquired, “Who are you? I don’t recall any past grievances between you and our Steer family.”
Clearly, these two were more prudent than Osvaldo Steer. They recognized that something was amiss. Despite their mid-stage dark energy abilities, they couldn’t gauge Sean’s strength.
Sean, in disguise, responded, concealing his true identity. He rose and walked toward the yard, saying, “I am Great Ape. the Deputy Head of Gorillas!”
