Chapter 255: They Invaded His Territory While Luke Was Away

Luke from behind noticed that Theia’s body had become somewhat tense.

Which he could already guess why.

"Sigh."

Sadly for this, he could only sigh.

After all he knew that accepting Theia openly would bring too much backlash from his wives.

As for what the world would say, he didn’t care.

Even though polygamy was normal here, so they would not say anything openly, he was sure of that.

That was why, instead of reassuring her, he remained silent.

Since this was not the time.

While he was thinking this, one of his clones sent him the information of what had occurred during his absence in the territory.

’Luke, here are the details.’

He went through all the info, but the more he heard, the more angry he became.

"Bastard!" His angry voice even came out, which freaked out Theia.

"Master, what happened?" She worriedly asked, because Luke currently seemed very angry. But Luke didn’t reply to her.

He kept going through the whole information, and only after hearing the end did he breathe a sigh of relief.

After that, he observed Theia’s worried face and thought for a moment.

Even though he didn’t like telling other people much except his wife, he still narrated what happened.

"Just after we left, many peak Golden Knights appeared in the territory and demanded to meet me." He said with a calm voice, like his earlier anger was gone.

Because he knew that these peak Golden Knights were the surrounding Viscount’s forces, who were already dissatisfied with him.

So they took the advantage of this situation and annocened to everyone.

"That I was involved during the earlier essence cloud gathering and also, it was me who got the treasure."

Hearing this, Theia also narrowed her eyes. Because they were clearly targeting Luke.

Of course what they said was true, witout knowing, it was truth. After all they couldn’t get any answer during that situation.

So they just wanted to bring more attention and trouble to Blackstone.

"Sigh, Even Aurielle tried to stop them by saying that I was in the middle of a breakthrough and couldn’t meet anyone."

"But they still demanded to meet me and didn’t believe Aurielle’s words at all."

Luke clenched his fist, because he could feel Aurielle’s helplessness and uneasiness at that time.

Since she was facing more than ten peak Golden Knights.

That was why they didn’t get afraid of Aurora and openly dared to enter the territory.

’They will pay.’ With that thought, he continued.

"Fortunately, before they could enter the mansion, the managers of the Merchant, Blacksmith, and Adventurer Guilds came and stopped them."

Hearing that, Theia also felt relief, because this place was built by her master and she also didn’t like anyone daring to enter without his permission.

Luke continued with a normal voice, "Seeing them, they finally backed down."

"Not because they were afraid of their strength, but they were wary of their background."

"Which was continental level, and as a Viscount, they couldn’t face them at all."

Luke took a deep breath after that.

Because from earlier, anyone would think that everything had finally resolved peacefully.

But sadly no.

"What happened next, master?" Even Theia understood this and asked.

Luke said with a voice that contained faint killing intent.

"The next day, an early B rank being, the Platinum Knight, entered the territory."

"What!" Hearing this, even her eyes became wide. Because those beings rarely moved outside, that’s what she found from the memory of the people of this world.

And earlier, because of what happened with Luke, that was why they moved.

"Yeah, all of this happened because those peak Golden Knights, the Viscount, spread the words that they had confirmed it was me who got the treasure and that was why I was not willing to meet any of them."

Luke said the next words while surpassing his earlier killing intent.

"And the Platinum Knight was the same being who had killed the Barrus brothers’ family and father."

He also told her about his new recruit of Golden Knight.

So after finding the information, he moved first, clearly not afraid of his hero status.

"Because he was a follower of the Storm God and a friend of Count Magnus." Luke said with a calm voice.

But anyone here would freak out upon this. After all, a Platinum Knight entered his territory, and if that person reached the mansion,

then he would also be able to find the Time Chamber, a priceless treasure.

On the contrary, he continued with a normal voice, "The managers again tried to stop Severin, the Platinum Knight."

"But the person who didn’t fear my hero title, how could he worry about their background?"

"So the result was obvious. He entered the mansion without any worry."

At this time, Theia looked toward Luke’s eyes with worry, because he was too calm.

Even though she knew something must have happened, or else he wouldn’t sit here, instead immediately try to reach the mansion.

Which confirmed Luke’s next words. "But at the last moment, Jasper, the manager of the Merchant Guild’s grandpa appeared."

"An early Platinum Knight."

Hearing this, Theia breathed a sigh of relief, because no harm was done.

"So seeing another person of the same strength present, he didn’t dare to force a breakthrough and left."

After saying that, Luke looked toward the earlier lightning strike site, where no one was present.

Only emptiness, because during his breakthrough, everything was destroyed in the 100km area.

Then he told her the rest of the news.

"The next day, he came back..."

"This time, with the Marquis of the demi-human, a Diamond Knight, an A rank being."

"Followed by tens of B rank beings."

"With one objective."

"That was to see me without any denial."

Upon this, Theia’s eyes went completely wide. Because this was absurd.

A Diamond Knight was high and mighty, so without caring about his reputation, he tried to force his way into a Baron’s territory.

Could bring the person a huge backlash among his community.
