“Brother!”
A pretty girl in torn clothes threw herself into Emerson’s arms.
Although Emerson was wearing a cloak to cover his face, Lucy recognized him at first glance.
Upon seeing Lucy crying, Emerson instantly clenched his fist. Anger in his heart was ignited.
“Did they bully you?” Emerson narrowed his eyes when he asked her.
Lucy buried her head into his arms. She shook her head and said, “They… said that you… said that you have… Oh… I don’t believe it… I knew… my brother… will definitely… come back…”
Emerson hugged her tightly, and his heart ached so much.
Luckily, they did not bully her. Luckily…
However, these people were damned!
Emerson suddenly raised his head. He was like looking at dead people when he stared at them.
“Lucy, close your eyes.”
A long blade appeared in his hand.
Upon seeing this scene, the expressions of the few people there were filled with shock. They all had expressions of disbelief.
“Soul weapon… It’s a soul weapon. A weapon type creature soul!”
“He has become a genetic warrior?”
“How is this possible?”
“Aren’t genetic warriors born with it?”
Confusion and doubt filled everyone’s minds.
As everyone knew, only the descendants of the first generation of genetic warriors had the qualifications to become genetic warriors.
When one was born, everything was set in stone. It was absolutely impossible to change it.
Ever since Iron City was established, no one had ever become a genetic warrior through hard work.
Not to mention Iron City, even the entire Indigo Empire did not have such an example like Emerson.
However, the soul weapon in Emerson Cole’s hands could not be faked.
As a result, the few scums who had their common sense overturned by these 2 contradictory existences did not even think of escaping at the first moment.
They were stunned as they could not even move a muscle.
However, even if they wanted to run away, Emerson would not allow them to leave the house alive.
They had angered Emerson.
Lucy was his dear. Whoever dared to hurt her, even if it was the city lord of Iron City, he would find a way to kill him!
His agility attribute was very close to a tier 9 genetic warrior. In an instant, his burst forth, causing Emerson, who was hugging Lucy, to move as fast as an arrow.
They did not even have the time to react before their heads were chopped off.
Even after death, there was still shock and confusion in their eyes.
“Murderer!”
The people who were watching the scene at the entrance immediately reacted and ran away.
Among them, there was a hunchbacked person. When he saw the scene, he quietly ran away and headed toward a place that should not belong to him.
Lucy heard something and wanted to look up to see what happened, but she was held down by Emerson.
“Trust me, you don’t want to see this.”
Lucy stopped moving and asked softly, “Are they all dead?”
“Yes, I won’t let anyone who bullied you off.”
Emerson’s voice was calm as it gave Lucy a sense of security and warmth.
She used her head to rub against Emerson’s chest like a kitten.
“Thank you.”
“Don’t mention it?”
Emerson smiled and stroked her hair. “Let’s go. I’ll take you to a new place.”
As he spoke, he took off his cloak and wrapped it around Lucy’s torn clothes.
“Are we leaving Iron City?”
Lucy raised her pretty face and asked. Her eyes were beautiful and pure as if she would agree to any decision that Emerson had made.
Emerson could not help but touch her nose, revealing a rare warm smile.
“What if we are?”
“Then I’ll follow you!”
“The journey might be challenging.”
“I’m not afraid of anything!”
Lucy’s eyes were full of determination.
Emerson laughed. “How can I let you suffer with me? I’m taking you to another place to live.”
“Another place?”
Lucy did not react for a moment. “But renting a house in Iron City is very expensive. Moreover, you just killed someone. The garrison will definitely arrest you.”
Emerson pinched her cheeks and smiled. “Have you forgotten what these people said about me just now?”
“They said that you… Oh… a soul weapon?”
Lucy’s eyes widened. With an expression of disbelief, she asked, “Brother, you became a genetic warrior?”
Emerson did not reply. Instead, he picked her up. Immediately, he brought Lucy out of the house and up to the roof.
His speed was obviously not something that a normal person could possess.
Lucy, who saw the scene with her own eyes, finally believed that this could not be the truth.
“This is actually true…”
She sighed and then excitedly hugged Emerson. She cried with joy. “Finally, we don’t have to be bullied by them anymore. We finally don’t have to…”
Emerson patted her back gently and comforted Lucy, but she cried even louder.
It was very embarrassing for a girl as old as Lucy to hug her brother and cry like this.
However, Emerson, who had lived with Lucy for more than 10 years, knew that this was the result of the suffering that had been in her heart for many years and was finally released.
Moreover, Lucy was not as weak as she appeared to be.
She was a very strong and meticulous girl, but she would show her only weakness to her dearest brother.
Emerson understood very well.
After comforting Lucy, he took his sister to the richest and safest place in Iron City and rented a big house.
He used the crystal card he had obtained from the captain to pay the bill. After swiping it, he discovered that the card actually contained almost 100,000 gold coins.
If he took it to the auction house, it would be more than enough to buy a few tier 7 creature souls.
He really could not understand how such a rich team could only have the strength of a tier 9 genetic warrior.
However, since they were all dead as there might not even be any bones left. Even if he wanted to ask, he did not know who to ask as well.
After finding a new place to live in, all that was left were some trivial matters such as cleaning the room. Lucy volunteered to take care of it herself so that Emerson could do what he wanted to do.
Emerson thought for a while. He still needed to deal with some matters in Iron City in the next 2 days. He might as well buy some meat with his crystal card to increase his strength.
With that, he went to the tavern.
…
At the same time, outside an elegant room somewhere in Iron City, the hunchbacked man was kneeling on the ground as if he was talking to someone about something.
Soon, a man in the room suddenly turned around with surprise in his eyes.
“There’s such a thing?”
