Levi Garrison: The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 1785

The Lopez and Black families were excited about the news, but Levi's objection wiped the smiles off everyone's faces. Including the ones from The Cardinal Hall. It was supposed to be a happy event, but Levi ruined it for them. “You object? Why? Do you have a better place in mind? One that's better than The Cardinal Hall?” someone from the two families asked. To that, Levi answered coldly, “I can teach her myself. She's my daughter, so I'll be the one to protect her. Not some organization like The Cardinal Hall.” “But Evie can't grow if you're keeping her safe forever. I don't want her to grow up useless. She has to go through some obstacles on her own. That's the only way she can grow,” Zoey argued. ... Zoey had a point, and it made Levi think. He was willing to protect his family forever if he could, but Forlevia needed to grow up eventually. She was different from the other kids, so she was destined to go on the cultivator's path. If he kept her by his side forever, it would stunt her growth. However, Levi couldn't give her to The Cardinal Hall just yet. He was still worried. He didn't have full control over The Cardinal Hall, so if anything were to happen to Forlevia, he wouldn't be able to get to her in time. True, he did send Forlevia to Wildefield, but that place was under his full control. However, this situation was different. “This is our decision, Crown King. And it's an order. Ask the Dragonites if you don't believe us.” They would take Forlevia with them what. Zelda wasn't as aggressive, however. She persuaded Levi gently, “You don't have to worry, Crown King. Your daughter is extremely talented. We promise you she'll get the best treatment in The Cardinal Hall, and she'll be on our top priority list. Evie's going to lead the nation in the future.” Gerald had stayed silent for the whole time, but he finally piped up, “The Cardinal Hall's the strongest organization in Erudia. Not a single sect can compare with us. And with how talented your daughter is, no one's going to hurt her.” “Levi, your objection is vetoed!” “Evie must be trained in The Cardinal Hall.” ... The Lopez and Black families started scolding Levi, while Zoey gazed at him. She could understand his sentiments, but she knew they had to let their daughter go. “Levi. We can't protect her forever. She'll have to grow up and protect herself. That's for the best.” ... Levi didn't know what to do. He didn't want to let his daughter go, but The Cardinal Hall and the Dragonites had issued an order. Not to mention his wife and his family were putting pressure on him, and he had to think for Forlevia's future as well. God, what should I do? ”Fine. She can go, but only for a while. If I find out she's getting abused in there, I'll be taking her home. No questions asked.” Levi gave in eventually. “That's fine with us. She'll be given time to adapt.” “We'll be taking her away now if there's nothing else.” Kaiden and his team were in a hurry to take Forlevia away, but since they came all of a sudden, nobody was prepared for this. “Give us a second. We wanna say goodbye to Evie.” Everyone started saying goodbye to Forlevia. Zoey was the second to last in line, and she was a mess of tears when she bade goodbye. Levi was the last one, and he was tearful. Forlevia was a good kid, so she calmed her father down. Levi knew he couldn't handle the farewell, so he left early. He didn't want to see his daughter off, after all. So he stood outside the residence and started smoking, but a few minutes later, Kaiden, his team, Zoey, and everyone surrounded him. “Hand over the child, Levi!” they yelled at him. “Huh?” Levi was flabbergasted. “What the heck? Evie's in her bedroom. I didn't take her,” Levi blurted. “Bullsh*t! She's gone missing! I know you're hiding her somewhere!”
