From Outcast to Overlord The Unyielding Heir (Leander Ashcroft) novel Chapter 512

"Do you know who I am?" Leander stared straight at Liana, a sharp gleam flashing in his eyes.

"How dare you spout such arrogant nonsense in front of me without even knowing my identity first?"

After all, he was the chief instructor of the Southern Wyvern Blade, the highest commander of its forces. On the other hand, Liana was merely a newly admitted member of the organization, yet she dared to interrogate him face-to-face and even threaten him.

However, Liana showed not the slightest fear. She met Leander's gaze and said boldly, "I don't care who you are. Even if you're the son of some wealthy family or have powerful backing, I will never forgive you if you trample on Maeve's feelings! Let me tell you clearly. Although my sister and I may be Maeve's bodyguards, we have another identity too. We are members of the Southern Wyvern Blade! You can go look it up yourself and see what that identity represents. You'd better remember everything that I had told you before. If you dare to mistreat Maeve again, don't blame me for teaching you a lesson!" With that being said, she didn't wait for Leander's reaction and left arrogantly.

Looking at her leaving, Leander chuckled as he found the whole thing interesting.

He was the dignified chief instructor of the Southern Wyvern Blade, yet he had just been lectured by an ordinary team member. Just the thought of Liana, who learned the Devourer's Flow that he created himself, had dared to threaten him in the face amused him.

Leander didn't take it to heart as he leaned back in his chair and continued waiting.

About ten minutes later, Nathan, Luke, and Evander finally arrived.

"Leander, I really can't be at ease. Livia and the girls are terrified that the Benjamin family will retaliate. Let's buy tickets for tomorrow morning's flight and leave, okay?" Nathan pleaded. If it weren't for their friendships, they would have already booked their flights and escaped long ago.

Leander placed his hands behind his head and smiled. "I told you already. Don't worry. The Benjamin family can't stir up anything."

Hearing his words, the trio exchanged looks.

Then, Luke hesitated for a moment before saying, "Leander, we know you influence Highcliffe. You're connected to the Ashcroft family and the Florian family, and even Daphne and Ethan would step up for you. However, this is Yelem. No matter how powerful the Ashcrofts and Florians were, they couldn't affect Yelem."

Evander stepped forward and patted Leander's shoulder. "We're serious, Leander. We know that you're strong, but there's no need to fight the Benjamin family head-on. This is their turf."

Looking at them, Leander suddenly had a big grin on his face.

"Did you guys think that I could be where I was in Highcliffe because I could suppress Wave Alliance with the help of the Ashcroft family and the Florian family?"

The three were confused by his words and asked, "Wasn't it?"

Back then, Leander had beaten Wave Alliance's men in the bar. At that moment, Rodrick had come personally, bringing Tycen with him. Leander faced both alone. Later, Ethan and Daphne arrived to support him, so naturally, the three assumed Leander had powerful backing from those families.

However, now that they heard Leander's words, they realized it didn't seem to be the case.

If it wasn't because of the Florian and Ashcroft families, they wondered why Wave Alliance would be forced into submission. How could even Tycen dare not to lay a finger on him?

Leander took a sip of tea and smiled, saying, "Although the Florian family and Ashcroft family are indeed powerful in Highcliffe, they're nothing more than that. The reason I dared strike Denzel in public was not because of them, but because of myself." He looked at them and continued, "In this world, power and money are what people chase as their ultimate goals. However, all these things are fleeting. Only when you hold a person's life in your hands is the ultimate path. I told you not to fear the Benjamin family because I have the strength to crush them. I alone could topple the entire Benjamin family."

"You… You can crush the Benjamin family by yourself?" The three were completely baffled.

Although they admired the overpowered heroes in fantasy novels who could change the fate of nations alone, this was the reality they were talking about. Thus, how could one match a family that dominated a whole country? They doubted that Leander was some sort of president.
