Chapter 773
“Mister Wolf, I had failed to recognize greatness even if it was placed right in front of me, and I truly apologize for offending you… Please forgive me for my carelessness,” Wilfred pleaded.
“What’s wrong? Didn’t you say you wanted to cripple me just now? Why did you change your mind so suddenly?” Leon raised his brows quizzically, but the truth was, he could guess that Wilfred had probably found out about his identity, which led to his 180–degree change in attitude.
“I would never dare to do so… It was all just my ego talking, and I never meant any offense. Please forgive me, sir…” Wilfred broke out in nervous sweats upon hearing this. He gritted his teeth and proceeded to slap himself across the face multiple times, desperately trying to prove his sincerity to Leon.
The spectators erupted into a flurry of whispers at this.
“Who…who is this man? I can’t believe Young Master Javner is so intimidated by him that he immediately got on his knees and even slapped himself just to beg for mercy!”
“Could he be someone even more powerful than any of the Javners?”
“Hmm, seems like it. We might have underestimated him!‘
Everyone turned to stare at Leon with looks of shock and awe.
Now that things had progressed to this, they finally realized that this man standing in front of them probably harnessed powers so great they could barely imagine. Otherwise, Wilfred would not have been so afraid of him!
Even Maisie and Mister Grover were beginning to realize this. Maisie never thought that someone who looked as homeless as Leon, a poor, unkempt man with a motorcycle, would turn out to be someone who was far more powerful than even the Javners!
Her entire face had turned pale, and for a moment, she did not know what she was supposed to do.
“Thud!”
“Yes, yes…” Wilfred and the rest quickly turned to Ariel and Shirley. They apologized profusely and begged for their mercy.
“Um…” Shirley was just a college student and was at a loss at this. She had never once experienced anything like this before and was a little stumped at how to handle this.
Ariel, on the other hand, had been through considerable major events in her life and soon calmed down. Leon, since they’ve already apologized, let’s not pursue this any further.”
Her anger had already dissipated largely when she saw how sincere these people seemed in their apologies.
Seeing that neither Ariel nor Shirley seemed to want to take this further, Leon did not intend to push things. He was a member of the realm of Supreme Masters after all, and people like him did not get caught up in small matters like this.
“Consider yourself lucky! I will let you go just this once, but if I ever come across something like this again, you won’t get another second chance!”
