I Am Super Rich

-Book XVII-

Chapter 801

"My master has traveled a long journey and feels a little sick. He wants to enter the city as soon as possible, but the line is too long, so he doesn't want to get in line. Please help us, Sirs."

As Beanie spoke, she stepped forward and handed the other party a package very discreetly.

The burly man took it and he quietly took a look at what was inside.

There was a look of surprise in his eyes.

That was a good thing!

A priceless treasure.

So, he put it away unconsciously.

Beanie breathed a sigh of relief.

It would be fine if the man accepted it. She was worried that he would not.

This was her first time coming to Amber City, and also the first time she had seen such a long queue entering a city.

Just when Beanie thought the other party would let her in, the guard suddenly said: "Only the first carriage can go. The remaining two have to get back in line."

"Sir, all three carriages are in the same team and the one in the middle belongs to our master. Please make things convenient for us," Beanie said hastily.

"I don't care who your master is. You have to listen to me when you're in Amber City. Are you going or not? If not, get back in line. Don't block the road or you won't be able to leave when the law enforcement team comes."

"You…" Beanie was very angry.

She did not expect the other party to have such a big appetite.

As expected of the eight main cities, even a guard was arrogant.

The treasure she handed him was quite valuable, but he only allowed one carriage to pass.

She would need to give him three treasures if she wanted all three carriages to go in.

'It's so expensive to enter a city.

'They're so cruel and greedy.'

"What? I know you are leaders in other places but this is Amber City, not your hometown. Don't think we won't dare to do anything to you just because you're a woman. If you don't leave, we won't only take action against you, but we will also do so to your master."

The burly man was not scared of Beanie at all.

The person supporting him was the mayor of Amber City.

So what if he took her gift?

Who would know that this woman gave him this gift?

Could he let her through just like that?

Even if he did not let her through, the gift would still go to him in the end.

Beanie had no choice.

That man was stronger than her and since she was in his territory, she had to admit defeat.

Plus, David told her to keep a low profile. To solve any problems with money.

Suppressing the anger in her heart, she gave another two wrapped treasures to the other party and said aggrievedly, " Please help us, Sir."

After taking the two packages, the burly man hinted at the other guard. After the other man nodded, the two took a step back and started discussing among themselves.

"We can live carefree after we take these three valuable treasures. Should we let them through?" The burly man whispered.

"Are you stupid? Those people are clearly moneybags from a small place. We finally have this chance, so won't we lose out if we let them go in now? Think of another way to get more stuff from them," the other guard said.

"I let the first carriage pass after I accepted the first one, and now they've given me two more. So, by right, I should let all three carriages through. Would we make them mad if we start trouble now?"

"It's fine! They're from a small place, so what if we enrage them? Don't say anything later. Let me talk to them. After this, we'll be able to live a good life."

"Alright, I'll leave this to you then."

After the two had a discussion, they walked back to Beanie.

The burly man who accepted the gifts did not say anything. Meanwhile, the other guard said to Beanie, "Bring your master here."

"Thank you, Sirs!"

After Beanie finished speaking, she turned to enter the carriage.

Before she could, the other party added, "I meant you and your master. The rest can get back in line."

Beanie, about to get into the carriage, was stunned.

Turning around slowly, she stared at the two guards with a dark look on her face.

Everyone had a temper.

After being teased by the other party again and again, Beanie was also on the verge of anger at the moment.

Although David said to keep a low profile, he also said that they would not cause trouble but were not afraid of trouble.

These two guards were deliberately making things difficult for them.

No matter how many treasures Beanie gave them, they still refused to let them through.

"Oh? What's wrong? You look unconvinced! Do you know where this is? This is Amber City, one of the eight main cities of The Spirit Cage. This is not your bloody hometown. We're working for the mayor of Amber City," The guard looked at Beanie and said arrogantly.

Beanie hesitated when she heard him say that he was working for the mayor of Amber City.

Whether in the main or other cities, the mayor was normally controlled by the first few major forces, if not the number one force.

It was not a good thing for newcomers like them to offend someone like that.

Just when Beanie was conflicting with herself on the inside, David's voice rang in her head.

David only had a few words.

"Don't be afraid! If something goes wrong, I'll take care of it."

That simple sentence doubled Beanie's confidence.

Since her master had said that, why should she be afraid?

"Sirs, I think I've given you enough respect, but why do you have to keep forcing us like that? Isn't it good to just harmoniously let us in?" Beanie asked calmly.

"Should I let you in just because you say so? You refused to follow the rules of Amber City now that you're here. I'm kind enough to not kick you out. Stop spewing nonsense and get back in line!"

"Sure, we can get back in line. Give us back our treasures and we'll leave immediately!" Beanie suddenly shouted.

"W-What treasures? Stop slandering us. We didn't take anything!"

The two guards panicked.

They thought that they could control the people from small places, but they did not expect that the other party would dare to argue back.

Beanie had given them the treasures too quickly the first two times, so the guards thought they could bully her.

In the end, when they wanted more treasures, they realized that they had encountered a tough one.

Everyone was taking bribes, and their superiors would keep an eye closed.

However, this was against the rules after all so they could not allow it to surface.

Beanie suddenly raised her voice so that everyone around could hear clearly. She attracted the attention of many and made the guards panic.

"Really? You didn't take anything? Do you dare to take out the three packages on your body and open them then?" Beanie sneered.

"So what if we have treasures on us? How can you prove that they're yours? Do you dare to prove that they're yours? Are you going to point to a random person and claim that the treasure on them belongs to you too?" The burly man asked.

"You're just guards, so how can you have such high-level treasures? I'm afraid no one will believe you even if you say so. Sometimes, you can't be too greedy and you have to know when to stop. If those things are not yours, they can never be yours," Beanie sarcastically said.

The conflict between Beanie and the guards of Amber City attracted the attention of many people around them.

Everyone looked like they were waiting for some drama to happen.

Neither the people queuing up to enter nor the other guards had any intention of stepping in to stop them.

They looked as if they could not wait for something to happen.

"You crazy woman, how dare you slander the guards. Let me tell you, you are done for. If you dare to cause trouble in Amber City, not only will you not be able to enter today, but you will also not be able to enter the city in the future. Go back to where you came from. If you don't leave, don't blame me for being merciless when I arrest and lock you up!"

Before Beanie had time to refute, David's voice came from behind.

"Hehe… How high and mighty! How dare a mere gate guard as you lock me up! Who gave you the courage and confidence?"

David got out of the carriage and stepped forward.

Behind him was Thor and the elite guards of the Nacht family.

"Master."

Beanie immediately stepped aside.

David nodded, walked past Beanie, and faced the two Amber City guards.

"W-What do you want? Listen, this is Amber City, not a poor village where you're the tyrant. Anyone who dares to make trouble here will end up badly."

The two guards were panicking now.

They collected bribes from those without a pass but did not want to queue to enter the city.

However, they could only do this in secret.

Once exposed, they would surely be punished.

Originally, this was Beanie and the other's first time in Amber City so she gave them precious treasures twice, treasures many times more valuable than what the guards had ever received in the past.

That was why they thought they had encountered an inexperienced local tyrant and wanted to rip them off as much as possible.

Unexpectedly, the other party became hostile all of a sudden.

If they knew this, they would have let Beanie and the others through after the third treasure.

They were very remorseful now that things had escalated to this point.

If they alerted their superiors, not only would they have to give up their treasures and get nothing, they would even get scolded and punished.

They had shot themselves in the foot.

"Yes, we're indeed from a poor village just like you said and we can't compare to the people living in main cities, but this doesn't mean you're better than us. This is my first time in Amber City and I didn't want to make a big deal out of this, but since you're unable to recognize my good intentions and are so greedy, I'd like to see how you'll lock us up," David said indifferently.

He did not have a trace of panic on his face.

He was an Overlord and his soul power had reached Overlord level 1.

Even if there were people in Amber City who could defeat him, there would not be many.

Originally, he wanted to be as low profile as possible since this was his first time in Amber City.

Ultimately, he gave someone the chance to take advantage of him.

How would an Overlord like him accept being bullied by two guards?

The guards wanted to let them through to make their mistakes less obvious.

However, there were so many people watching and they could not lower themselves to do that.

After all, they were the guards hired by the mayor.

"As the guard of Amber City, I'm warning you to back away if you're smart.

Stop clinging onto this or else you'll be the ones suffering."

"You're so long-winded!"

David lifted his right leg and took a step forward to release some of his energy.

Even though it was only a little bit, the two guards could feel an irresistible energy rushing toward them.

They were pushed back uncontrollably.

During this, the two looked at each other and could see the shock in each other's eyes.

They knew they were unable to deal with this person in front of them.

So, the two gritted their teeth and nodded at the same time. Then, at the same time, the two made a shocking move.

Chapter 802

After they stopped, they knelt on the ground together.

To the onlookers, it looked as if David was forcing them to kneel.

This scene caused countless onlookers to gasp.

They had all possible outcomes in their heads, but they never thought that David would dare to make the guards kneel.

The guards were mobs. They were also scoundrels.

However, they were under the mayor so they represented the prestige of Amber City and the mayor.

If David dared to make the guard kneel in front of everyone, wouldn't he be slapping the mayor in the face?

At the same time, this was exactly what the guards wanted.

Since David was still clinging to this, they would escalate this.

If this escalated to be a matter of his prestige, the mayor would surely send someone to deal with this when the time came.

In the face of such a serious issue, taking bribes would become something small.

Perhaps no one would even care about that.

If that was the case, they would be able to escape from that, right?

David did not want to ask the two guys to kneel. He only wanted to scare them but since this had escalated to this, this kerfuffle was getting bigger and bigger.

Hundreds of Amber City guards in front of the gate stopped what they were doing and stopped all entry to the city. After that, they all gathered at the entrance where David was.

Someone was forcing the guards to kneel and this affected the prestige of the mayor and all the guards. It was no small matter.

More and more guards gathered around the two guards.

As they were kneeling, they lowered their heads and showed sinister grins. "Who dares to cause trouble in front of the gate of Amber City? State your name!"

The head guard looked at David and his gang and asked.

Facing more than a hundred guards, David and the others did not show the slightest fear.

Both Beanie and Thor had seen David's strength, so they knew David's background to be extraordinary.

So what if Amber City was the main city?

They believed, with their master's background, he would not be scared of them.

David himself was even less afraid.

Even if this escalated to the mayor, he was in the right.

How could they accept his gift and not let him pass?

"My name is David Lidell. I will not admit that I am making trouble. Since they accepted my gifts, they should let us enter the city. They refused to honor their promise after they took my gifts! Even if we escalate this to the mayor, I won't be afraid."

David acted as if justice was on his side.

"Did you accept his gifts?"

The head guard looked at the two guards who were still kneeling on the ground.

"Captain Gott, no! We definitely didn't accept his gifts!"

The two quickly shook their heads in denial.

They must not admit it.

Once they admit it, they would become the public enemy of all the guards. "They said they didn't accept the gifts! What else do you have to say now? How dare you force the guards to kneel and slander them. If you don't give me a reasonable explanation, you will never leave Amber City safely today." The head guard threatened loudly.

He was very clear about receiving gifts.

As the head of the guards, anyone below him that received gifts would contribute a part of them for him.

So, of course, he had to protect his people.

"Tsk tsk tsk… I now know what they say when they mean officials will shield one another. A small city guard dares to accept bribes so blatantly and then refuses to fulfill their promise. How greedy. I don't know if you are brave or if you are capable of doing so," David shook his head and said with a smile.

While the two were at daggers drawn, a voice came from the inside of Amber City.

"The law enforcement team is here. Any unconnected person should get out of the way."

When they heard this, the gathered guards made way quickly.

Then, a team of more than ten walked over.

All had their heads held high, looking very arrogant. They wore black shirts with the words 'law enforcement' printed on them.

They had the right to be arrogant as the law enforcement team had the highest status in Amber City.

It is very hard to join the law enforcement team.

Not only did they have to be strong, but they also needed to pull the right strings.

The law enforcement team would not accept trash.

All matters within the city were within their jurisdiction.

The law enforcement team was many grades higher than the guards who only watched the gate like the city guards.

When the city guards saw the law enforcement team, they had to show them respect. All dreamed of becoming one someday.

"What's the situation?" The captain of the team asked.

"Sir, these guys didn't have a pass and wanted to force their way into the city. Of course, the city guards can't allow this to happen, but they forced the guards to kneel. Sir, they are slapping the mayor across the face by doing so! Please take action to suppress these punks!"

The head guard stood up and pointed at David and the others. He was speaking respectfully and carefully.

The captain of the law enforcement team first looked at the two guards kneeling, then at David and his group.

He asked, "Is this true?"

"Will you believe me if I tell you he's lying?"

David did not answer but asked instead.

"You punk! The captain asked you if it was true, you just need to answer yes or no. Why are you spewing so much garbage? If you say one more word,

I'll…"

A member of the law enforcement team pointed at David, cursing. Before he could finish, David looked over with lightning-like eyes.

The team member who insulted David immediately shut his mouth as if someone had grabbed him by the neck.

"Is this the quality of the law enforcement team? To be honest, I have been to so many places and met countless law enforcement officers, but you are the worst I have ever seen. It seems that Amber City is just so-so! You call yourself one of the eight main cities of The Spirit Cage? Sigh… Now that I'm here, I don't think you are worthy of the name!"

David said, shaking his head.

When he said that, the onlookers all looked at David with horror on their faces.

They wondered, 'Is this kid stupid?

'How dare he say that about the law enforcement team of Amber City? 'Everyone knows that the Amber City law enforcement team has huge power and holds the right to life and death over most people.

'Anyone who offends the law enforcement team will die a tragic death if they don't have a strong background.

'Since David said this is his first time in Amber City, he's definitely not a local force.

'Even if he's from other cities or even if he is a tyrant in other first-tier cities, he still can't do that in Amber City.

'Unless he's from a top force in the other seven main cities. Only then will the mayor of Amber City show him some respect.

'After all, whoever is the top force of a main city was not weak.

'Everyone would know them, even in Leila.

'However, under normal circumstances, a force from one main city won't go to another main city.

'If they're too far away from their descending point, it will be troublesome if any accidents happen.

'So, the chances of David coming from a main city are not big.'

Feeling horrified, the onlookers all looked curiously.

'This is going to be good.'

'David dared to insult the law enforcement team so openly.

'How many years has it been since this happened?

The two guards on the ground were delighted. This was exactly what they wanted.

"An outsider like you has no right to judge us. Take them away! I want to examine them myself," the captain of the law enforcement team said with a dark face.

What David said had completely enraged him.

"Yes, Captain!"

More than ten law enforcement team members replied at the same time.

Then, they went over to arrest David and his team. They wanted to bring them into the city, lock them up, and then deal with them later. Beanie, Thor, and the Nacht family elites all stood in front of David.

They did not care if the other party was the law enforcement team or not.

Anyone who wanted to touch their master would have to go through them.

Of course, they knew they were not the opponents of the Amber City law enforcement team. However, they still had to do what they needed to do.

"It seems like this is indeed your first time in Amber City since you don't know how powerful we are. Do you think a few potatoes like you can stop the law enforcement team? How delusional!" The captain of the law enforcement team smirked coldly as he looked at Beanie and the others. 'The show is starting.'

The onlookers back away subconsciously.

When the two sides were about to collide, David teleported in a blink of an eye and reappeared at the front of this team.

Then, he whispered, "Get back!"

A storm escaped from his lips.

The law enforcement team felt their ears buzzing. Their brains were in a mess and their bodies felt light. Then, they were lifted into the air. The captain of the law enforcement team at the back also felt terrifying energy rushing towards him. Before he could react, his body was in the air.

Not to mention the city guards.

How would they escape if the law enforcement team could not even resist this?

In a blink of an eye, anyone in front of David was in a complete mess.

The law enforcement team together with the city guards were more than a

hundred in total. All were flying in the air, straight at the city walls of Amber City.

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

"Pfft!"

The sounds of collision and vomiting blood could be heard repeatedly.

After a while, more than a hundred people fell to the ground after crashing into the wall. All of them were wailing in pain.

The onlookers all had their jaws on the oor.

'What happened?

'Was I seeing things or were my ears deceiving me?

'His words were so powerful!

'The law enforcement team and a hundred city guards were defeated just like that?

'Who is that?

'He looks so young but he's so terrifyingly powerful!

'No wonder he dares to insult the Amber City law enforcement team in public. It seems that he can do so.

'He's so young and has such powerful strength. I'm sure his background must be very strong too.

'The law enforcement team and the city guards are in trouble now.

'If he's really from the other main cities, this matter will end up with nothing definite.'

Since David was only targeting the law enforcement team and the city guards, the onlookers around him were not affected at all.

The captain of the law enforcement team stood up shakily. He was the strongest among them, so he was the least injured.

Yet, the trauma on his body was nothing compared to the trauma in his head.

He would never imagine that this young man was so strong that he had no way of resisting.

Furthermore, David only said two words.

"W-W-Who the hell are you?"

The captain of the law enforcement team asked in a shaky voice.

Chapter 803

"I just told you, my name is David Lidell! This is my first time in Amber City and I plan to stay here for a while. I didn't want to cause trouble, but you forced me to. It's so troublesome entering a city. I gave you some benefits and you still don't want to let me through. What's wrong? Do you think you can bully me just because I'm an outsider? Today, I'd like to see what you ants can do to me!" David said lightly.

The two city guards who had just accepted Beanie's benefits had completely passed out.

It was not that they were seriously injured, but they passed out from fright.

When David's two words made more than a dozen of the law enforcement team and hundreds of city guards helpless, the two knew that they were doomed today.

They were the ones at fault since they had taken the bribe and yet refused to let David and his team pass.

They thought they had run into an inexperienced bumpkin and wanted to make more money.

And now, they had not only failed to reap more benefits, they might even have to pay with their lives.

If they encountered someone ordinary, the law enforcement team might have suppressed them forcefully and not listened to the other party's explanation at all.

However, now that they had encountered someone like David, who was strong and had a powerful background, the law enforcement team would definitely get to the bottom of this.

Once they traced this back to the two guards, the two of them would surely lose their lives.

Under the tremendous psychological pressure, coupled with their physical injuries, they passed out instantly.

"May I know which main city you're from, Master David? I'm Viktor Cerruti, the captain of Team 73 of the Amber City law enforcement team. I apologize for offending you just now. Please forgive me." The captain of the law enforcement team told David who he was.

Facing the powerful young man in front of him, Viktor, the captain of the Amber City law enforcement team, had to humble himself.

He had to bow and apologize after he had been hurt.

This was the change brought about by strength and status.

Viktor was not scared of David, but his background.

David was indeed strong, but he was still young so his strength was limited after all.

Therefore, he could not defeat the mayor on his own.

However, it would be different for the force behind him.

Any force that could cultivate an heir like David was terrifying.

The top forces in the eight main cities of The Spirit Cage all knew each other in Leila.

Unless it was a hostile relationship.

Otherwise, they would show respect to each other and not do something that went over the line.

At the end of the day, it would be the subordinates who were responsible for the blame.

In other words, if David was the direct descendant of the top forces in the other seven main cities, subordinates would surely be the ones to blame.

When the time came, being expelled from the law enforcement team would be the lightest punishment.

The onlookers expected Viktor's words too.

The captain of the law enforcement team was nothing in front of David, who was obviously the descendant of a powerful force.

A wise man submitted circumstances.

"You want to know about my background, right? Well, listen carefully. I am me. I am all alone. I don't have any background or power behind me, so just do whatever you want to me. I'll accept anything you throw at me," David said honestly.

However, no one believed him.

They all thought he did not want to reveal who he was.

Could someone, all alone, have such a strong talent and strength?

Anyway, none of the onlookers present believed him, including Viktor.

Since he was the captain of the Amber City law enforcement team, he was regarded as someone prominent in Amber City, with strong support behind him.

Therefore, he had met quite a lot of geniuses.

Yet, none of them had David's strength.

Just two words from him could defeat a law enforcement team and hundreds of city guards in seconds.

Perhaps only the captain of the entire law enforcement team had this strength.

"Master David, calm down! Master David, please calm down! It's all a misunderstanding. We didn't mean to take action against you just now. We just wanted to invite you to the mayor's residence. The conditions here are too bad. Since this is your first time in Amber City, we should be host to you," Viktor quickly explained.

"Oh? Is that so?" David pretended to be puzzled.

"That's right! That's the way it is! How would we dare to do anything to you? You must be tired from the journey, so we want to invite you to the mayor's residence for a cup of tea!"

"So are you saying that I'm not the one at fault? I misunderstood you and I shouldn't have taken action against you?" David asked with a half-smile.

"No! No! We were the ones who were not clear about this, so that's why you misunderstood us, Master David. It's our fault! It's all our fault!"

"That's more like it. Then let's go! Since you're all here, let's go to the mayor's residence first." David turned around and got on the carriage.

Now that some of his strength had been exposed, he should just go to the mayor's residence to have a look.

According to David's understanding, the mayor's residence was generally controlled by several strongest forces in turn and it represented the highest combat power of a city.

David's plan of keeping a low profile could not be realized now.

Now, David had also thought it through. Since they were going to take root here, Thor would surely threaten some people's interests. Therefore, he should just solve this problem in advance.

He could only return to the real world with peace of mind after he nipped this in the bud.

Otherwise, he would still need to show his strength when the time came.

Viktor breathed a sigh of relief on seeing David turn and enter the carriage.

'Thankfully I managed to escape this.

'If David killed me, I would have died in vain.'

The same went for the members of the law enforcement team and the guards behind him.

Who would have thought a young, harmless kid would possess such great strength?

If it were not for his mercy, perhaps they would all be dead now.

After escaping from a disaster, everyone felt that life was so beautiful.

They had to pay attention in the future and keep a low profile whenever necessary.

They could not mess with this kind of person again, or they would not even know how they died.

"Get someone to see if those two guys are dead. If they're not dead, lock them up and wait for Master David to deal with them. They must be tired of living since they did not let Master David into the city after receiving his gifts. They deserve to die ten thousand times," Viktor looked at the two unconscious guards and said through gritted teeth.

At this moment, he was full of anger but he had nowhere to vent. So, he was dying to tear those guys into pieces.

If it were not for those two, he would not have ended up in this situation today.

He was embarrassed in front of countless people and even offended someone whom he could not afford to offend.

He had no idea if he could survive this crisis safely.

If he was fired by the law enforcement team, then his life would be horrible. He would never be able to go back to his former glory days.

As the captain of the Amber City law enforcement team, Viktor could not do whatever he wanted and he lived a carefree life.

He had quite a high status.

Wherever he went, others should politely address him as Captain Cerruti.

If he was expelled from the law enforcement team because of this, he would be so aggrieved.

Not only would his status in Amber City fall to the bottom and be ridiculed, but his status in the family would also plummet.

Moreover, he might even be abandoned by his family. Then, he would be someone at the bottom of society.

Viktor did not want that.

So, he must save himself.

The only way was to get David's forgiveness, and this was his last chance.

After hearing Viktor's order, several law enforcement team members went to the unconscious guards and kicked them a few times.

They also despised these two rascals.

When they saw the two not reacting, they squatted to see if the two were still breathing.

After confirming that they were not dead, they picked up the two and dragged them into Amber City.

One could imagine that what awaited them would be the most tragic treatment.

Even if David ignored them, Viktor would not spare them so easily.

He was framed so he could only vent his anger on those two.

"What's wrong? Why are you still here? Don't you want to enter the city? Get back in line. If not, you won't be allowed to enter the city!" Viktor scanned the onlookers and yelled.

He was so inferior just now, but after David left, he went back to his arrogant self.

In front of David, he had to be inferior. After all, he was not strong enough and he knew better than to fight when the odds were against him.

When Viktor said that, the onlookers dispersed quickly.

Even though they were not happy, they dared not show it.

If David dared to take action against the law enforcement team, it proved that he was capable and had the background to do so.

They did not dare to offend the law enforcement team.

If not, they would not be able to stay in Amber City.

The city guards also dragged their injured bodies back to their post and continued to watch the gates.

David and his team got into the three carriages and entered Amber City while the people in line watched them with envious gazes.

Viktor brought David and his team to the mayor's residence.

He had already reported what had happened to the captain of the whole law enforcement team.

Then, the captain reported this to the mayor of Amber City.

At this moment, the mayor of Amber City, Salem Birch, was waiting for David at his residence.

It was rare to see someone who dared to start trouble at the gates of Amber City.

Something like this had happened in the past but all got the punishment they deserved.

It had been a while since someone did this.

So, Salem wanted to see who this person was.

—

Once he arrived at the mayor's residence, David got off and lifted his head to look at the tall and formidable door of the mayor's residence.

He could feel very strong energy from the inside. Of course, it was not the energy he felt while on his way here; that was miles away from this.

Compared to his, it was pretty inferior.

Therefore, David was curious.

'What's going on?

'Isn't the mayor's residence controlled by the biggest forces of a city?

'Why is the energy from Amber City's mayor's residence so weak?

'It's even weaker than the mysterious person I encountered on the way.

'Was that the mayor?'

While David was guessing whether the energy inside was from the mayor, Viktor bowed to him and said, "The mayor is waiting for you. After you, Master David."

As David walked into the residence, he was even more confused.

'Is this the level of Amber City's mayor?

'Isn't this a little weak?

'Who's the mysterious person I met back then?

'Are they not from Amber City?'

David shook his head. He could not understand what was going on so he decided to stop thinking. He would only decide after he met this so-called mayor.

Chapter 804

With Viktor leading, David soon arrived at the reception hall of the mayor's residence.

A tall and burly middle-aged man stood guard at the door. His eagle-like eyes stared at everyone.

David was not bothered.

On the contrary, Beanie and the others behind him felt a chill all over their bodies, as if they were being targeted by a bloodthirsty ancient beast.

Viktor hurried up to greet him and said, "Captain Longer, this is Master David!"

There was only one person in the entire Amber City who Viktor would address as Captain Longer.

He was the boss of all law enforcers—Arian Longer.

He was also the right-hand man of the mayor.

He would not obey other people's orders but the mayor's.

In other words, he would only listen to whoever became the mayor.

Arian's status in Amber City was much higher than that of a small team captain like Viktor.

It would not be an exaggeration to say he could do whatever he wanted. "Were you the one making trouble at the city gate?" Arian asked, staring at David.

If Arian stared at anyone in Amber City like this, they would be so frightened that they would become weak and not able to stand.

"I don't want to repeat myself," David said calmly.

He was not showing any respect to the other party at all.

"Not bad, kid. You are the first person to talk to me like this, no wonder you dared to make trouble in Amber City. You are brave enough! I just want to know if you can still be so tough after this," Arian said with a half-smile on his face.

Faced with such a threat, David narrowed his eyes. He looked at the other party with a half-smile and said contemptuously, "And you're the one who's going to do that?"

"Kid, you've never heard of my name before, huh? Only a handful of people in Amber City dare to say that to me. Do you think you can become one of them?"

"You'll know if you give it a try. Why are you spewing so much nonsense?" David looked disdainful.

"Do you think I won't dare to do so?"

Arian felt that he was being provoked, so he glared at David with his beastly eyes. It looked like he was about to tear in half the prey in front of him.

Viktor did not dare to breathe too loudly so close to the two in conflict.

He could not afford to offend either.

One was Captain Longer, and the other one was the direct descendant of a middle or top-tier force of a main city.

Beanie and Thor's hearts were in their throats.

They knew how powerful their master was, but this was Amber City after all. It was one of the eight main cities of The Spirit Cage.

If Captain Longer could become the captain of the law enforcement team and maintain order in Amber City, he must not be looked down upon.

"Stop spewing nonsense if you can fight! You're as long-winded as a b*tch!" David continued to trigger Arian.

The energy he felt outside the city did not belong to this Arian person. Instead, it belonged to the mayor inside the room.

To David, Arian's measly strength was similar to Viktor, perhaps just slightly stronger.

"You're asking for it!" Arian said, word by word.

Just as he was about to show David what he was capable of, a voice came from the room behind him.

"Ari, tell Master David to come in."

Arian immediately stopped in his tracks and turned to reply respectfully, "Yes, Mayor!"

Then, he turned to look at David.

"Go ahead, kid. The mayor is waiting for you inside."

David shrugged and walked forward. When he walked past Arian, he stopped and ordered, "Beanie, Rivers, wait for me out here. Don't worry, no one will dare to do anything to you. If anyone dares to even touch a hair on you, I'll end their f*cking life."

After he said that, he tilted his head to glance at Arian. Clearly, he was directing this to him.

Arian was so mad that he wanted to beat this kid in front of him to death.

When had he suffered such grievance since becoming Captain Longer of the Amber City law enforcement team?

"Don't worry, Master. We'll wait for you out here," Beanie and Thor said at the same time.

At the same time, they were breathless with anxiety.

They thought, 'My darling Master David, please stop antagonizing Captain Longer. You might not be scared, but we are!'

Ordinary people could not endure the might of Captain Longer, the captain of the Amber City law enforcement team.

If David was not here to support them, a look from Arian would have scared Beanie and the team to the ground.

Viktor was shaking as he was scared stupid.

This was the first time he heard someone who dared talk like that to Captain Longer.

With Arian's position in Amber City, even though the mayor was his superior, he still had to show some respect to Arian.

The Amber City law enforcement team was not a force to be looked down upon.

There were 12 members in a small law enforcement team, and with the team captain, there would be 13 members.

Then, the entire law enforcement team would consist of 108 small teams that would be managed by a captain.

The Amber City law enforcement team was made up of 108 small teams and Arian was the only captain.

He managed elite teams of more than a hundred thousand members and oversaw the order of the entire Amber City. Therefore, one could see how powerful Arian was.

Aside from the Birch, Campbell, and Vidales families, those in charge of other forces would have to be respectful whenever they saw him.

That was why Arian dared to say that there were only a handful of people in Amber City who could control him.

He had power and status.

"Kid, not bad. I will remember you. In the future, I hope you won't regret what you said today," Arian said through gritted teeth as he looked at David with eagle-like eyes.

David curled his lips and showed Arian a cold grin.

"Stop scaring me, I'm very timid. But I also have to warn you. Those people back there are with me, so if you dare to touch a single hair on them, you might not be able to keep your damned life."

After he said that, David walked into the reception hall without turning his head. He wanted to see who was the mayor of Amber City.

Arian was furious but he could not say anything.

Since the mayor had not said anything, he genuinely did not dare to do anything to David and his people.

Thus, he could only suppress his anger inside him.

When he turned his head to look at Viktor, Viktor was so scared he fell to his knees.

"C-Captain Longer, please don't be mad. Please don't be mad!" Viktor was extremely scared.

He was scared that Captain Longer would blame this on him. If that were so, shouldn't he be aggrieved?

'I'm so unlucky.'

Viktor felt depressed.

'Why is it my turn to maintain order at Gate 32 today?

'Wouldn't it be great if it's a day before or after?

'Sometimes when you are unlucky, misfortune can happen, however careful you are.

'If I asked David properly, wasn't so decisive as to listen to those guard dogs, and sent David into the city safely, none of this would have happened and I wouldn't have ended up in this situation.'

Viktor was so remorseful. However, he could not turn back time.

Arian ignored Viktor and turned his eyes on Beanie and the team.

Beanie and Thor did not dare to look at Arian, so they purposely tilted their heads to one side.

In reality, they were extremely anxious.

—

David walked into the reception hall.

The room was huge and the decorations were luxurious. It was such a dazzling sight.

As the face of Amber City, the mayor's residence naturally could not be too ugly.

The moment he entered the door, David saw an old man sitting on top.

He was sure that the man was Amber City's mayor.

To be honest, David was a little disappointed.

'He's a mayor but he's not as powerful as I thought.

'I can destroy him even if I suppress 90% of my power.

'He's too inferior compared to that mysterious person I met.

'They're not on the same level at all.'

Back then, David thought that the mysterious person was from Amber City.

Now, it did not seem so.

After all, the mayor was already the highest combat power of a city.

As David was sizing up the mayor of Amber City, Salem was also doing the same.

'This young man doesn't look too bad.

'I can't tell anything about his strength.

'Perhaps he has some special means to hide his power.

'Anyone that can hide from me is not ordinary!'

"David, my friend, please sit," Salem gestured.

He had found out David's name from Arian's report.

He was also trying to remember which top force in Leila had an heir with the last name of Lidell.

However, he could not think of any.

There could be a lot of reasons for this.

Firstly, he did not pay much attention to the younger generation. Moreover, he had stayed in The Spirit Cage for so long that he did not know much about Leila anymore.

Secondly, David might be the direct descendant that a force was cultivating in secret. Perhaps he never showed himself in public and that was why no one knew him.

Another reason might be that David lied about his name purposely to hide who he was.

"Are you the mayor of Amber City?" David asked.

"Yes! I am the current mayor of Amber City, Salem Birch. May I know where you are from?"

"You don't need to know where I'm from for now. I have a question for you right now. I hope you can answer me honestly, Mayor Salem," David said rudely.

"What is it?" Salem looked curious.

He was not bothered by David's rudeness.

He was young!

So it was normal for him to be like this when he had the strength.

Who was not young before?

Salem was the same when he was young. He thought he was second only to God and would look down on everyone. He was sure that he could become the sixth Overlord of Leila to create history and gain everlasting fame.

However, he was not the only one with this thought.

He would give up that thought as time went on and sanded down his edges.

"Is there anyone stronger than you in Amber City?"

The reason David asked this question was to check if the mysterious person he met halfway was from Amber City.

This was very important to David.

After all, that was the only person in The Spirit Cage that made him feel helpless.

When he was being targeted by the mysterious person, David did not dare to show his strength at all and he could only use the system to hide himself.

It was because he knew the other party was much stronger than him. His Supreme level 1 soul power was definitely no match for the mysterious person.

David did not want to expose his secret before knowing if the mysterious person was a friend or foe.

"Why are you asking this?"

"You don't have to worry about this. You just have to answer 'yes' or 'no'," David urged.

Salem chuckled and said, "Since you're asking, I'll just tell you. This is not a secret anyway. There are three forces controlling Amber City, and we take turns becoming mayor. Currently, I am the strongest here and the people in charge of the two forces are slightly weaker than me. However, if we have to fight, there will be a lot of variables. Even if I am slightly stronger, it's not enough for me to dictate the result of the battle."

He sounded pretty arrogant when he said that.

However, David frowned when he heard that.

Old Man Birch is the mayor of Amber City, so it was clear how strong he was. There was no need for him to lie.

Then, who was that mysterious person David encountered halfway who was spying on him?

David could not understand.

When the mysterious person appeared, they were not far away from Amber City.

Now, Salem said he was the strongest in the city and the other two were about the same as him.

However, his strength was much lower than David's, let alone that mysterious person.

Chapter 805

"Thank you, Mayor Salem," David replied politely.

This old man was nice.

At the end of the day, he was the mayor of Amber City so he was not as narrow-minded as those hotheads outside that were all brawns and no brains.

David would always respect the people who respected him.

If Salem treated a stranger like him that way, then David naturally had to be polite too.

"David, you're too kind. May I know where you're from? I don't think you've been here before."

"Mayor Salem, this is indeed my first time in Amber City. As for where I'm from, I can't tell you because of some reasons. Please forgive me."

David wanted to tell Salem the truth but, too bad, Salem would not believe him.

So, he had no choice but to lie.

Salem was understanding.

He thought David was the heir cultivated in secret by some large force in Leila and had not shown his face outside before, so that was why he did not want to expose who he was.

"I understand. If that's the case, I won't ask you again. If you need anything in the future, you can come to me. I still have some authority in Amber City. As long as it's within my power, I will do my best to help you."

David was surprised by Salem expressing goodwill to him.

'I don't have any background, so why is a mayor doing this?

'Did he see my strength?

'Impossible!'

David rejected this answer.

David knew what the system could do.

Even that powerful mysterious person did not know his secret, so how would Salem tell?

"Thank you, Mayor Salem! I will stay in Amber City for some time, so I hope you will take good care of me." David thanked him again.

"You're too kind! David, you're young and promising, so you will have a good future. Just come to me if you need anything." The two chatted happily for a while.

As for David causing trouble at the gates of Amber City, Salem did not mention it once. It was as if he did not know about this.

Salem was treating David as a small investment.

This was just a small matter.

Now that he was old and had lived a long time, he would remember himself as a young man whenever he saw someone like David, so filled with energy.

According to what Arian said, David could easily handle a law enforcement team and more than a hundred city guards with just two words.

So, his soul power definitely stood out among the younger generation in Leila. Moreover, he had the means to hide himself.

While he was out there, he was not at all bothered by Captain Arian Longer of the law enforcement team.

Considering all these things, David must have been cultivated secretly by one of the major forces.

This person would surely become the mainstay of all the forces. He might even become the true controller of them all.

The Birch family had a partial Overlord grandmaster and their power was also at the top of Leila. Aside from the five Leila rulers, there was no one worth currying favors with.

However, it would be better to have one more friend than one more enemy.

If he punished David today, the force behind David would come to him in the future. That would be troublesome.

Even though the Birch family was not scared, it would be better to not cause trouble.

Whenever two major forces collided, both sides would surely lose.

With this in consideration, Salem did not make things hard for David.

Of course, if he dared to do so, David would not mind showing Salem who he was.

An Overlord's soul power was invincible in The Spirit Cage.

Even if everyone in the Birch family in Leila combined their power, they could not be David's opponent.

David did not need to use his clones to defeat the Birch family easily. This was the difference between an Overlord and anyone below Overlord Realm.

The difference between the two could not be made up by increasing the number of people.

"Mayor Salem, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave. I just got to Amber City, so I must find somewhere to settle down." David put his hands together to take leave.

He had achieved what he wanted to do here.

He understood the general situation of Amber City. It was just so-so.

If Salem was telling the truth, David could easily destroy Amber City right now.

If all of the main cities were like this, there was not a place in Amber City that could stop him.

Yet, the mysterious person had become a knot in David's heart.

So, he did not dare to be too unbridled.

"It's easy to find a place to settle down. I have a lot of properties. You can take your pick later. I'll give you the one that you pick. It's nothing." Salem offered generously.

"No need! No thanks, Mayor Salem. You can't do that. How can I want your house? I can settle this myself, thank you!" David quickly rejected him.

He was not only buying a house to live in, but he was doing it for the lavish points.

Every house in a main city like Amber City would be expensive. Those were all lavish points.

Since David wanted to stay here long-term, he wanted to buy a few more even.

"It's nothing! It's just a house. To you and me, it's merely a worldly possession."

"Mayor Salem, I can take care of this myself so I won't bother you. Thank you for your kindness." David rejected Salem again.

"Since you insist, I won't force you anymore." Salem was just saying that casually.

How would a direct descendant that was cultivated in secret lack money?

He might have piles and piles of resources to use.

"Thank you for your kindness, Mayor Salem."

"David, I won't send you off then. If you have nothing to do in Amber City, you can come and talk to this old man."

"No problem. I'll definitely drop by!" David agreed.

Then, he turned to leave.

Beanie and the others were waiting anxiously outside.

This was the mayor's residence of Amber City, one of the eight main cities on The Spirit Cage.

A first and second-tier city like Wier and Sole could never compare.

Anyone who could become the mayor of Amber City was surely from the best force in Leila.

Even though Beanie and the others figured David was also from one of them, what if he was not?

What should they do if Master David offended the mayor of Amber City?

While they were feeling tormented, David appeared.

"Master David!"

"Master David!"

Beanie and Thor called out excitedly at the same time.

They observed David and after making sure he looked the same as when he went in, they let out sighs of relief inwardly.

David nodded at the two in response.

As he walked to Arian, Salem said from inside the reception hall.

"Ari, apologize to Master David. He will be staying in Amber City for a while and you're the captain of the Amber City law enforcement team, so you will be seeing each other quite a lot in the future. Don't treat him like he's your enemy."

Arian was shocked.

After two to three seconds, he came back to his senses.

"Mayor, I…"

Before he could finish, Salem continued, "What? Are you disobeying me now?"

"Yes, Mayor!" Arian took a deep breath and answered.

Then, he looked at David and suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart to say forcefully, "I'm sorry."

Arian's apology caused Beanie and the others to widen their eyes. They had looks of disbelief on their faces.

Even though Arian sounded unnatural and he was not doing this willingly because he had no choice, this proved how amazing Master David was.

This was Captain Longer of the Amber City law enforcement team in one of the eight main cities of The Spirit Cage.

Aside from the mayor, he was almost invincible in Amber City.

The mayor was also the one with the most authority in all of Amber City. If Beanie and the others were doubtful about their master's identity, they were now certain that he had one of the top forces in Leila behind him.

Otherwise, the mayor of Amber City would not be so polite and even asked the captain of the law enforcement team to apologize.

Perhaps the force behind Master David knew the force behind the mayor of Amber City. Perhaps they were even pretty close.

If not, he would not get such a treatment.

Beanie and the others were finally relieved.

The higher their master's status, the happier they would be.

"You don't have to apologize to me, but I hope you can manage your people well. Stop making conclusions before knowing the situation. It's not good." After David said that, he walked out of the mayor's residence without even turning back.

Beanie and the others quickly followed him.

At this moment, Viktor who was on his knees felt as if all of his energy had been drained. Shortly after, he fell to the ground limply.

He felt dizzy.

'Oh no! I'm doomed!

'David's status is so high that it's terrifying.

'Even the mayor is so polite to him. Moreover, Captain Longer was even forced to apologize to him.

'But I wanted to lock him up!

'Aren't I asking for death?'

Now, Viktor was not worrying if he could keep his job as the team captain of the law enforcement team. Instead, he was worried if he could still live.

He was about to die, so who cares if they made him mayor, never mind team captain of law enforcement?

Once he died, he would have nothing.

Viktor could not endure the stress and passed out.

Arian stared at David's back. When David finally disappeared from sight, he turned and walked into the reception hall.

After he walked in, he saw Salem sitting there.

"Mayor, who was that kid? What's his identity?" Arian asked straightforwardly.

He was very unhappy when he was asked to apologize.

After that, he thought about it and realized if the mayor wanted him to apologize, there must be a reason.

David might not be as simple as he seemed.

"I have no idea." Salem shook his head.

Arian could not accept this answer.

'You have no idea and yet you want me to apologize? Are you fooling me?'

"Mayor, you're not joking with me, right?" Arian had a look of disbelief.

Chapter 806

"What's there to joke about? I really don't know! I asked David, but he didn't tell me."

"Then why did you ask me to apologize to him? I'm already kind enough to not tear him into pieces. When have I, Arian Longer, apologized to such a nobody? I'm so mad," Arian spat angrily.

"Ari! You can't just look at the surface. I might not know who David is, but I know he is not simple! He has such a strong soul power at such an age that he must stand out even among the younger generation of Leila."

After Salem finished speaking, he looked at Arian who was still furious. He smiled, ignored him, and continued to say to himself, "In addition, David said that for some reason, he can't reveal his background. So I guess he is probably an heir secretly cultivated by a certain major force. Moreover, he might have the opportunity to become the actual controller in the future. He has not shown his face in public, so he can't reveal himself. If you offend him, do you think he will let you go after he gains power?"

Upon hearing this, the anger in Arian's heart was slowly extinguished.

If David had this status, he truly could not afford to offend him.
