Chapter 560

Alas, Geoffrey was very much cognizant of the fact that he was not a match for Severin, who-in his opinion was at least a level four profound master.

However, the elder he called over had a good relationship with him and happened to be a level seven profound mater. He believed that the elder would have no problems whatsoever in killing Severin. For the moment, Geoffrey could only bear the humiliation, put on a smile that was uglier than a crying face, and sing 'Happy Birthday".

Wesley and the others had dumbfounded expressions, and they never dreamed that there would be a day when the protector of Equus Hall would kneel and sing in front of them. Although everyone was nervous, they could only continue to drink and hope that Severin would be able to pull something off when the elder came.

Less than five minutes later, the elder walked in angrily, and his expression soured even more when he saw the group of people who were kneeling on the ground.

"Mister Roland! That's the guy! He's probably a level four profound master, and I'm no match for him at all!

Geoffrey pointed at Severin while talking to Roland O'Dea, his elder.

"Bold of you to tell our guys from Equus Hall to kneel on the ground and sing." Roland clenched his fist and glared at Severin.

"You're finally here, sir! My legs are getting numb already!" Humbert finally dared to stand up and

immediately complained to Roland, "This kid is nuts! He said that he'll kill us if you didn't show up, and he called us the 'Ick-A's Hall"!"

Severin glared at Humbert. "When have I ever said 'Ick-A*s Hall'? You sure know how to talk nonsense! I've made up my mind to kill you first!"

Geoffrey endured the pain from his fork-induced injury and said to Roland, "Sir, he said he'll kill us even if you came! He's ruthless beyond compare!"

"Do you genuinely wish to make an enemy out of Equus Hall?" Roland glanced insipidly at Severin, who had approached him by then and stopped to look at him with a smile.

Severin continued to smile faintly as he answered, "I had no choice, and it's mainly because I heard that Humbert was allowed to indulge in misbehavior under Geoffrey. With Geoffrey's protection, Humbert oppresses everyone and anyone, and I felt drawn to lending a helping hand when I experienced the exact situation today."

Roland's mouth twitched a few times and he glared at Severin, saying, "Am I supposed to just accept your words as the truth? Why should I believe you?"

Geoffrey then immediately said, "He's spouting a load of bull! He looked down on Equus Hall, and now he's up to his little tricks! The only reason he's slandering us is because he saw you and immediately realized that he's no match for you!"

Roland glanced at Geoffrey and said, "I trust you because you've been with us for so many years. There's no reason for me to trust an outsider like him?"

Geoffrey smiled coldly all of a sudden and felt a burst of pride in his heart.

Severin sighed. "I think you've gone senile, Mister Roland. If you insist on protecting them, then I'm afraid I have no choice but to kill you too!"

"Protecting them is exactly what I plan on doing. What can you do about it?" Roland immediately jumped

blink of an eye and aimed his attack at him.

Severin finally understood that Humbert's boldness stemmed from having the backing of an elder who indulged them in their transgressions; without such a person to fall back to, they would never have been brave enough to commit such acts.

Since that was the case, Severin decided that there was no point in showing any mercy. With a light swat, he smacked Roland's hand to one side and launched a counterattack by planting his palm firmly on the latter's chest.
