A night without much conversation, and the next morning arrives.
In the central square of Eden City, a stage has already been prepared for the inter-house competition.
At this time, the square was packed with people with a lively atmosphere.
"Did you guys hear? Last night, Maxwell came back from training in Eden. Once he returned, he killed a member of the Emporium Academy in front of Cook's Kitchen."
"That Emporium Academy member killed so many Gryphon's Household members, so he deserved his death."
"That's right; let them know that the people of Eden City aren't people they can easily mess with."
"Are you guys crazy? The Emporium Academy can casually send out someone at the Gold Rank and flatten our City."
"That kid Maxwell is way too arrogant; he directly beat someone to death. Most likely, the entire Gillette Household will follow in the footsteps of the Gryphon's Household."
"I think the Gillette Household wouldn't dare to compete today. Going up on the stage means death, and the Gryphon's Household being destroyed is the prime example. With just the weaklings of the Gillette Household, they'd probably be so scared to the point of pissing their pants right now."
"Hahaha... This time, I'm definitely betting on the Castros winning."
All the common people were discussing this issue. Some were worried for the Gillette Household, while some were just secretly enjoying the show.
A lot of people were thinking that the Gillette Household wouldn't dare to show up and fight.
One needs to understand that the Gillette Household wasn't merely facing the Castro Household; they were also dealing with a battleship existence, the Emporium Academy.
Emporium Academy they were basically the overlords within a radius of a hundred thousand kilometres. The fate for offending the Emporium Academy was something worse than death.
Maxwell had killed the son of an outer court Duke, so there's no way the Gillette Household and he would be able to escape the fate of being annihilated.
Not long after, there was a commotion at the end of the street where ten senior elite members of the Castro Household were opening up a path. They were yelling out: "Move aside, move aside, move away."
Their voices shook the air, filled with wild arrogance.
Ever since Charlie came back, even those labourer members would act wildly, completely not giving regard to anyone.
The senior elite members managed to clear a path that was three meters wide. A one-meter-tall beast was seen stepping forward while spraying out thick white mist from its nostrils. It was trotting along all high and mighty, similar to its owner sitting on top. They looked at the people with disdain and arrogance as if no one in the area could measure up to them.
This huge beast was actually an above-bronze-spawned beast that had been domesticated to become a mount.
This beast was something Charlie had rented from the Emporium Academy. His purpose was to show off, make himself look cool, and raise his status in the eyes of others.
While sitting on top of the huge beast, Charlie turned a deaf ear to all the discussion going on. His eyes were cold as he showed an expression that he was superior to everyone.
"So handsome!"
"He's too good-looking! I love you, Charlie!"
"The appearance of Charlie is truly not normal. Just by having an above bronze rank spawned beast as a mount... Sigh, the members of the Emporium Academy are on a whole other level."
"That's natural. Haven't you heard that he's the number one Student of the outer court? Even the sovereign is paying attention to him, so he'll definitely become an expert of the Emporium Academy in the future."
An endless stream of praises was discussed, making Charlie even more popular.
The higher Charlie climbed in status, the more unshakeable the Castro Household would become in Eden City.
To the side of Charlie was another male riding a huge beast. His expression was even colder, filled with even more disdain as he would occasionally whisper contemptuously to himself: "What a bunch of hillbillies."
"Charlie, that trash of the Gillette Household wouldn't be scared to the point of not showing up, right?" Luis asked in a worried tone as his eyes searched the crowd.
Charlie coldly smiled and said, "Don't worry; I've arranged some people at the exits of the city. Even if he does manage to flee to the ends of the earth, I'll still go there and kill him!"
Luis faintly smiled: "Charlie, you must put on a good show this time. My uncle's temper..."
Without waiting for Luis to finish his sentence, Charlie interrupted: "I will definitely give Duke Godfrey a satisfactory explanation."
"Maxwell, you piece of shit must die today!"
"Your Household will also be destroyed."
The two of them were silent in thought as the two huge beasts below them swaggered towards the central square.
Suddenly, in another area, a crowd of people from another street started approaching in an unhurried manner.
Someone in the crowd exclaimed: "The members of the Gillette Household have come!"
As the crowd burst into an uproar, many people turned their heads towards them. One could see, to the left of Maxwell, a cute and adorable-looking lolita, Brenda. To the right of him was Gwendolyn, who was so beautiful that she could cause people to suffocate. Behind him was his large group of majestic-looking Gillette Household brethren that looked like the street gangsters ready for a turf war - they too looked very powerful.
"Gwen, there are so many people here and it's so lively." Brenda giggled.
Her blooming smile was extremely adorable.
Her cuteness was so much that Gwendolyn couldn't help but adore her as well.
Those two girls didn't reject each other. Once Brenda appeared, Gwendolyn instantly fell in love with her. She even told Brenda not to get too close to Maxwell because he was a big, bad egg and a complete rogue.
And with just a few lollipops, Brenda had been won over.
From then on, Brenda would always stand on Gwendolyn's side. If Maxwell wanted to hug Brenda, he'd have to get consent from Gwendolyn first.
What a tragedy!
Gwendolyn showed a shallow smile while gently touching Maxwell's shoulder. "The other group is sitting on huge beast mounts while you're just walking. Are you going to let them steal the entrance?"
"Huh?"
Maxwell froze for a moment since he didn't feel like he was already losing.
Gwendolyn gently pulled Maxwell's arm so that she could whisper to him: "Let me give you some encouragement: Defeat them all today. If you manage to beat them all down, tonight I will give you a mysterious grand prize."
"Tonight? A mysterious grand prize?" Joy rose in Maxwell's heart. He then eyed the two towering peaks on Gwendolyn's chest, and a gurgling noise was heard from his throat.
Gwendolyn rolled her eyes at Maxwell and pretended to be angry: "You stinky rogue, what are you thinking about?"
Maxwell laughed excitedly, "I will definitely beat them all down today, so can you give me a hint?"
"Nope! You'll know when the time comes." Gwendolyn smiled mysteriously, in an ambiguous manner which was very thought-provoking.
Maxwell's little man below started to tremble. Could it be that tonight... Hip hip, hooray!
"Brenda, hold onto Maxwell's hand so that he can show off a little." Gwendolyn pursed her lips into a smile.
Brenda giggled before naturally threading her hands into Maxwell's. She then softly said, "I wanted to hold your hands early on, but I was afraid of Gwen scolding me. That's why I endured."
Maxwell made a long sigh inside his heart.
"Whoa, quickly look! That kid Maxwell's luck with women isn't too bad."
"You see that girl? I have never seen such a pretty girl in my entire life."
"That other young girl is the same, too, just look at her resplendent looks. With those seductive eyes, I bet that once she grows up a few more years, she'll be able to steal one's soul with them."
"Charlie may be riding a huge beast here, but Maxwell is holding hands with two gorgeous girls. I think Charlie has lost this time."
When Charlie looked at Gwendolyn, who was beside Maxwell, he started mumbling to himself: "When did such a pretty girl appear in Eden City?"
Luis looked on with astonishment before his lips curved to a smile. He then faintly said: "Charlie, if we manage to get a hold of those two girls, I believe my uncle's temper would at least be reduced by half."
Charlie lightly smiled before loudly saying, "Walk slower."
Constantine's eyes tightened before running up to Maxwell and saying, "Boss, the Castro Household group has slowed down."
Maxwell lightly smiled and said, "I see it. Are they planning on causing some trouble?"
