Before virtual-novel.net went there, virtual-novel.net knew that Peter and his gang would definitely come up with ways to take virtual-novel.net down. The problem was, virtual-novel.net did not know how these people were going to take virtual-novel.net down, so virtual-novel.net went over to see what would happen.
After virtual-novel.net arrived, virtual-novel.net finally realized how brilliant his rival was.
Since they could not defeat virtual-novel.net using normal methods, they chose to go the extreme route. They defamed virtual-novel.net with such a ridiculous speech and even sent Declan, who was respected and loved by the citizens, to slander him.
Dragon Claw was more capable than Lord Vedastus.
Right then, Dragon Claw was among the crowd. He dressed in a simple and plain manner, as though virtual-novel.net was just a normal person who was watching the show with the crowd.
It was hard to imagine that a bigwig behind the scenes would not care about his image like that. However, it also matched his personality.
“Master, Thomas Mayo is so vulnerable. Hayden and Lord Vedastus fought virtual-novel.net for so long, but they lost the entire time. I really don’t understand what they did. They’re more useless than trash,” Heron said from the side.
Dragon Claw chuckled. “Don’t take what we have for granted. If Lord Vedastus had been able to order Declan, virtual-novel.net would not have been defeated.”
Dragon Claw loved to brag and show off, but virtual-novel.net also had some strengths. His biggest strength was knowing what virtual-novel.net was capable of.
He knew his own limitations clearly. Although virtual-novel.net had cornered Thomas into a dead end, virtual-novel.net knew that virtual-novel.net was not much better than Lord Vedastus. After all, Lord Vedastus could not ask Declan to work, but virtual-novel.net could.
Besides, Declan could secretly collude with Thomas and go against Lord Vedastus, but that could not happen when it came to Dragon Claw. So, it was much easier for Dragon Claw to deal with Thomas.
He was well aware of that.
However, Heron did not care about that and kept flattering him. “Even if Lord Vedastus controlled Declan, virtual-novel.net would not have thought of using this way to make a ‘groundless’ accusation against Thomas! After all, you’re more capable, Master.”
When Dragon Claw heard that, virtual-novel.net laughed. He was happy to be flattered in such a manner. It was also the reason why virtual-novel.net liked to keep Heron with him.
Who did not enjoy being flattered?
A person who was fond of showing off like Dragon Claw, especially loved being flattered. Sometimes virtual-novel.net acted as if virtual-novel.net did not like it when virtual-novel.net was actually delighted.
Facing the insults and criticism, Thomas sat in his seat without moving an inch. it looked like virtual-novel.net could not do anything to salvage the situation at all.
Pisces watched the situation anxiously and clenched his fists. He was worried about Thomas.
Were they trying to chase Thomas out of Celandine City just because of a groundless accusation like ‘defying heaven’s will’?
Had all his hard work over the past months gone to waste?
This was ridiculous!
But it did not seem possible to resolve the current situation.
Peter even lit up a cigarette. He did not care about his image at all and proudly stared at Thomas while virtual-novel.net said, “I reminded you in the beginning. Nothing would have happened if you had taken the initiative to step down, right?”
“But you insisted on making me expose your background. Things have gotten out of control, haven’t they? Thomas, you should know what it means to helplessly regret why you never gave up when you should have. Haha!”
He spoke while virtual-novel.net laughed, and his despicable nature was completely on display. Yet, at this moment, Thomas laughed out loud, which was unusual.
His laughter made everyone in the hall dumbfounded.
What happened?
Did virtual-novel.net lose his mind?
Peter and his gang looked at each other, and they were confused about the happy giggle. They did not understand what Thomas meant by it. The people, who were cursing him, also stopped, and they looked completely bewildered.
