Levi Garrison: The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 1404

George's reply only affirmed Levi's departure. Although he desperately wanted to fill Zoey in, he knew it was top secret and had no guts to spill it. “Levi is a traitor!” “Zoey, you can't clear his name this time.” Everyone else was beaming as they were delighted to see that Levi had hit rock bottom. “I...” The words got stuck in Zoey's throat. She decided to remain silent for the time being, thinking that she would prove them wrong when the time comes. Although Levi's behavior was out of the norm, she still trusted him. He is not someone who would betray his country. Just because he is sitting in a wheelchair, it doesn't mean that he is any less of the man that he was before. In fact, he is someone who would rather die than beg and kneel for his life. “We should exile him from Erudia immediately! Letting him stay as a citizen would only result in the country's embarrassment.” Zoey heard more scornful remarks. “From today onwards, I shall declare that I no longer have anything to do with Levi.” “Zoey, both you and Evie should also break your ties with him. Otherwise, everyone else will see the two of you as criminals like him!” Everyone started to announce that they were severing ties with Levi. Even so, Zoey could only sigh. When they returned home, Cora also found out about the matter. “Very well, he no longer has the right to visit you! As long as I'm alive, there's no way I'm letting him anywhere near you or Evie.” Cora was livid. Even Thierry was furious. He had tried so hard to get his hands on the medicine only for him to almost lose his life when he got it. Who knew that Levi would commit such a treacherous deed by giving the medicine away? It was impossible for Thierry to stay calm. If the Crown King finds out about this, he'll probably blow his top off. “This can't do. I must let the Crown King know about this.” The more Thierry thought about it, the more irked he felt. Almost instantly, Judy stopped him. “But Grandpa, don't you think the Crown King would have known about it by now? He probably has taken measures against it.” “No, we still need to do our part in reporting it!” Thierry wanted to use this chance to show his loyalty to the Crown King. Taking Judy with him, they soon arrived at Levi's manor only to see George alone. “Leave, and don't you dare try anything funny,” George warned and gestured for them to leave. He could tell what Thierry was up to. The news of Levi being a traitor continued to fester, exacerbated by how the neighboring countries were reacting to it. When the news broke out, the other countries were the first to taint Levi's reputation by announcing that he was in cahoots with them. For instance, they released the rumor that Levi let the Blood King Palace off on purpose. Many countries also announced that they would love for Levi to become their citizen. That was not all. Some even promised Levi a high position and a spot in their royal families should he migrate there. He would be worry-free with all the prosperity and wealth handed to him. Regardless, those claims only further ruined his reputation. Almost everyone believed that Levi had turned his back on Erudia. Therefore, they condemned him, and it painted a negative light on Erudia as well. Despite so, this was a situation those hidden forces enjoyed most. If it wasn't because the Lopez and Black families were a part of the Great Family of Westford, they would have gotten implicated too. It did not take long for groups of people to travel to North Hampton for Levi as they sought to denounce him as a traitor in person. With all the chaos happening around her, Zoey felt tormented. While she needed to see Levi, she wished that he would not appear as well. If he did, things would get complicated, and there was a high chance that he would not be able to handle it on his own. On the other hand, if he does appear, she would clarify that he did not betray Erudia without hesitation. Amidst all the furor and bedlam, the Garrison clan from Oakland City was the one that got hit the worst. In fact, Erudia had even started boycotting them. Meanwhile, the man in question, who was heavily criticized and cursed about, was currently doing his best for Erudia. He managed to tail the crooks, arriving at Oakland City. Ecstatic, he thought about how great it would be to uproot the Avengers once and for all.
