Chapter 120: Chapter 120: Is She More Beautiful Than Me?



"Speak! Clarify the whole situation!" Matthew\'s imposing presence filled the room. The reason he had come to find Charles today was not only because he had heard that Sly and Kevin had gone missing outside the city, but also because Raj had informed him that Charles was at the station to pick up another student from the Cyber Academy.

It was well known that anyone who managed to graduate from the Cyber Academy would at least become a Level 6 Beast Master in the future! As the lord of Lsengard, Matthew naturally wanted to establish a connection beforehand to see if he could invest in that student.

Now, it seemed from Charles\' demeanor that the Cyber Academy student had just arrived in Lsengard and immediately gotten into trouble! Wasn\'t this a slap in Matthew\'s face?

"My lord..." George was at a loss for words. He couldn\'t possibly admit that he had just threatened Charles. After thinking it over, he could only try to shift the blame onto the golden-haired woman.

George slowly began to explain, "My lord, it\'s like this. My cousin is a Level 3 Beast Master. He came to Lsengard today and had a small conflict with this lady. Unexpectedly, she directly attacked him, leaving him severely injured. This led to the misunderstanding with Mr. Charles."

"A small conflict? What kind of small conflict?" Matthew\'s expression darkened further.

Before George could continue, Charles interjected, "That\'s not the bravado you were showing earlier. Weren\'t you just threatening me?"

"This…" George immediately fell silent, bending down in an attempt to apologize. Losing face was one thing, but as long as he could keep his job at the lord\'s manor, he could regain that lost dignity later on!

To his surprise, Charles was not swayed by such tactics. He raised his foot and kicked toward George\'s knee.

George instinctively tried to dodge, but Charles was far too fast; he didn\'t stand a chance!

"Crack!" The sound of bones breaking echoed as George was forcibly brought to his knees.

"Apologize and admit your fault," Charles said, unfazed after delivering the blow. If the other party had been even slightly more cordial and willing to talk, Charles would not have acted this way. He lived by the principle: if a person doesn\'t offend me, I won\'t offend them, but if they do, I will repay them tenfold!

George gritted his teeth against the pain in his knee, kneeling on the ground, cautiously raising his head to glance at Lord Matthew, only to find that the lord wasn\'t even paying attention to him.

"I\'m sorry, sir. I deeply regret my earlier actions, and I ask for your forgiveness," George muttered.

Charles shook his head. "Not enough. That troublemaking cousin of yours also needs to apologize to the lady beside me!"

Greg, lying on the stretcher, clenched his fists tightly. He hadn\'t expected things to turn out this way.

Before coming to Lsengard, his cousin George had told him that as long as they didn\'t offend the prominent families in Lsengard, there was nothing George couldn\'t handle. But who would have thought that just after stepping off the train, his cousin would be kneeling on the ground in front of a bustling station, apologizing?

Greg struggled to roll off the stretcher, hanging his head. "I\'m sorry, miss. I\'m really sorry..."

The passersby around them stopped to gawk, some even loudly commenting.

"Honey, look! Someone\'s kneeling over there. Doesn\'t that face look familiar?"

"Isn\'t that George from the lord\'s manor? The one who usually struts around like he owns the place? Who would have thought he\'d end up like this?"

"He\'s famous for only taking money and never delivering on promises!"

"Quick, let\'s film this and post it online!"

Hearing the chatter surrounding him, George and Greg desperately lowered their heads, wishing they could bury themselves like ostriches.

As for the two kneeling in apology, Catherine simply nodded. She wasn\'t concerned about them; her mind was filled with curiosity and gratitude toward Charles. If it weren\'t for him, she would still be at the relevant department facing inquiries.

Noticing that Catherine had no further demands, Charles didn\'t want to linger on the matter either, as he had other things to attend to. Ignoring the kneeling figures of George and Greg, Charles turned to Lord Matthew and said, "Now that the issue is settled, I have some time this evening. I wonder what you needed to discuss with me, my lord?"

"Let\'s talk over dinner tonight, Charles. By the way, may I ask who this lovely lady is beside you?" Matthew said, glancing at Catherine.

Before Charles could introduce her, Catherine spoke up, "Hello, Lord Matthew. My name is Catherine Otolov, and I\'m from the Highland Tribe."

"Pleasure to meet you, Miss Catherine. I am Matthew, the lord of Lsengard. Welcome to our city!" Matthew replied.

As Charles, Catherine, and Matthew chatted amiably, they walked towards the carriage.

Meanwhile, George, still on the ground, breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the lord didn\'t fire him, he could handle anything else.

At that moment, someone approached and said, "George, you won\'t need to come back to the lord\'s manor anymore."

"What? Why? I\'ve already apologized! Isn\'t that enough?" George\'s face drained of color, and despair washed over him. But what was even harder for him to accept came next.

"You\'re not just fired; you\'ll also be prosecuted for embezzlement and bribery! Get yourself a good lawyer; maybe you can reduce your prison time!"

George shot up his head, wanting to say something in response. He turned to his cousin, but without a word, he dragged his injured knee over to Greg and landed a punch on him.

"It\'s all your fault! If it weren\'t for you causing trouble, this wouldn\'t have happened!" George shouted, completely disregarding his injured cousin. He continued to rain punches down on Greg...

In the largest and most luxurious hotel in Lsengard, Lord Matthew, Charles, Raj, Henry, and Catherine had nearly finished their meal.

Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Matthew directly stated the purpose of today\'s gathering. "Charles, I came here today to discuss something with you."

"What is it?" Charles asked.

"It\'s about Axel. He\'s asked me to be an intermediary and hopes you can show him some mercy and let him off the hook," Matthew sighed. After all, Axel was a Level 4 Beast Master, and the Miller family was quite powerful. Who would have thought he would now seek a peaceful negotiation from a Level 3 Beast Master? But then again, that Level 3 Beast Master was Charles.

As the day went by, no one had found Sly and Kevin. The only thing discovered in a forest outside the city were some signs of a struggle and a few piles of ashes. Could Axel not be anxious?

Two Level 4 Beast Masters had followed Charles out of the city and then vanished. This news had already spread among many. Without Sly and Kevin\'s assistance, how could Axel possibly contend with Raj, Henry, and David?

Deciding it was best to seek a peaceful negotiation, he went straight to Lord Matthew for help.

"My lord, Axel is a Level 4 Beast Master. I\'ve only just reached Level 3. Asking me to let him go doesn\'t seem right," Charles replied.

He wasn\'t ready to accept this request just yet. The longer Axel felt cornered, the greater the leverage Charles would have. Moreover, he wanted Axel to come personally to apologize!

Upon hearing Charles\' response, Matthew\'s eyelids twitched slightly, thinking: This Level 3 Beast Master is not the same as the others.

He understood that since Charles had said this, it meant a refusal. With nothing else to discuss, Matthew exchanged a few pleasantries and then took his leave.

In the private room, Raj, Henry, and David remained. They had come to see Charles because of the situation with Sly and Kevin. The three of them had already seized control of all the markets in Lsengard.

In the future, the three major powers in Lsengard would be the Blackwood family, the Stokes family, and the Smith family!

Of course, the biggest contributor to this was Charles, which was why they had come to see him—they wanted to share some of their newfound wealth with him.

However, Charles declined to take any of those assets and instead opted for gold coins.

He planned to leave Lsengard soon to seek opportunities in a larger world, which meant that having as many gold coins as possible would be beneficial for him.

After the discussions wrapped up, Raj took Charles and Catherine back to the villa. Initially, Charles had planned to book a hotel for Catherine to stay in, considering the villa wasn\'t his and Lily was still living there. However, Catherine had persistently requested to spar with him since the moment they finished their meal, so he eventually agreed to let her stay for a while.

As soon as they returned to the villa, Lily appeared. She was wearing tight blue jeans that accentuated her curvy rear, and a white lace-trimmed tank top that revealed her navel, making her look fiery and sexy. Enjoy exclusives on m-vle-mp _yr.

"Charles, you\'re back! Who is this?" Lily\'s tone shifted from excitement to curiosity as she focused on Catherine, a hint of hostility evident in her gaze.

"This is Catherine. Like me, she\'s here for recruitment for the Cyber Academy in the Lsengard region," Charles introduced her briefly.

Lily stepped closer to Charles, almost pressing her body against him, before turning to Catherine and greeting her, "Hello, I\'m Lily. Nice to meet you."

"Hi, I\'m also happy to meet you," Catherine replied, unaware of Lily\'s closeness. She was busy admiring the Blackwood family villa, occasionally letting out exclamations of admiration.

"Come on inside; I\'ve had the staff prepare hot tea and fruit. Let\'s have a little snack," Raj said, not getting out of the car. He was busy these days with many matters at the company that needed his attention.

After Raj left, Lily linked her arm with Charles, deliberately rubbing against him with her chest, and leaned in close to his ear, asking, "Who looks better, her or me?"
