Levi Garrison: The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 2173

Chapter 2173 The Head Of Garrison Industry They began to hesitate upon hearing that. Do we tell him or not? Edmund had an idea when he noticed the look of hesitation on their faces. “Let me guess... It's Levi, isn't it?” It wasn't actually that hard of a guess as the higher-ups of Garrison Industry were all closely acquainted with Levi, so it would make perfect sense for him to be their leader. Edmund chuckled when he saw the change in their expression upon hearing Levi's name. Okay, this confirms it, then! “So it really is Levi, huh? That man sure is exceptional for starting a company like Garrison Industry, I'll give him that! Unfortunately, Levi has gone missing for a year now. I'm sure you guys know what that means more than anyone else, don't you?” What started as a compliment took a sudden twist, and Edmund's words left them all pale as the words stabbed at their hearts. They were less likely to feel worried if they knew for sure that Levi was dead. After all, he had always turned out to be alive during his previous “deaths” and had been protecting Erudia in secret. However, it was the first time Levi had been missing for a whole year, and that left a lot of room for imagination as to what happened to him. It wasn't like him to just go missing like this, and that fact alone made it a lot scarier as something bad must've happened to him. Garrison Industry had secretly sent people searching every corner of the world for Levi throughout the year, but they found no sign of him whatsoever. As much as they hated to admit it, they all had a feeling that Levi could truly be gone this time. “Levi being missing makes him as good as gone, so Garrison Industry is pretty much without a leader right now! There's no point in keeping the company if he's gone, so I'll just go ahead and remove his position as head of the company!” Edmund continued. Naturally, they didn't take too kindly to what he said. “You can't do that! Who are you to remove Mr. Garrison's position like that? He built all of this all by himself!” “Yeah! Nobody has the right to remove Mr. Garrison's position! We will only acknowledge him as the head of Garrison Industry!” The higher-ups were firm in their decision, but Edmund simply chuckled as he said, “And what if I were to do so by force anyway? I could just fire all of you and take over Garrison Industry myself! Edmund wasn't about to give up on Garrison Industry just because they refused to sign it over. He had only come to negotiate out of courtesy and would resort to using force if necessary. “Even so, we still won't agree to it! Feel free to fight us if you want to!” “That's right! Bring it on! We're not afraid of you!” “They say The Cardinal Hall is nothing compared to Mr. Garrison... Looks like that really is the case here!” Edmund was losing his cool at that point and said with a cold sneer, “Very well, then. You asked for it!” The atmosphere was tense as everyone prepared to engage in battle, and Robed Slayer quickly stepped forward to stop them by saying, “Calm down, guys! I'm sure Mr. Garrison wouldn't want to see us fighting regardless of his condition! None of us will stand to gain anything out of this fight! Besides, The Cardinal Hall belongs to Erudia, so we'd still be serving the country even with them leading the company! It's not like Garrison Industry has fallen into the enemy's hands!” Everyone calmed down after hearing what Robed Slayer said, and they agreed to Edmund's request under the condition that The Cardinal Hall would allow them to operate however they saw fit. Edmund agreed to their condition and finally got his hands on Garrison Industry as he wanted.
