Thump!
Just like before, a low thud was heard as a man appeared on the glass balcony that extended from the roof.
"It's another God of War, Sam Johnson!"
Everyone grew even more excited when they recognized him. That added another God of War in the venue.
In truth, everyone expected it was a God of War when they saw him jumping down from such a high altitude. He actually dared to leap down from a height of 100 or 200 meters above sea level yet sustained n o injuries. Only the Gods of War could accomplish such a feat.
Sir Johnson, you're here too! You look so handsome!
"Oh, yes! Coming here was worth every second of my time. There are already six Gods of War here. My god, I'm going nuts!"
"I've never seen so many Gods of War in all the years I've served on the battlefield. I've only ever seen one, yet here they are, six of them!"
The marshals, commanders, and the likes were all excited. The sight that greeted them shook them to the very core.
"My goodness. Another one!"
At the same time, on the top floor of the six-star hotel opposite them, Cecilia and members of the Gold family watched on with sour expressions. They saw another God of War appearing on the opposite hotel’s screen, and it was a grand sight to see. "Heh, six of them came to the banquet. Perhaps all nine will show up?” Kelly chuckled. He felt that he had become the joke of the entire universe.
"No way. How can that happen?"
Master Gold shook his head, convinced that he was dreaming.
"Miss Selena, I almost died once on the battlefield, but Sir Fane was luckily skilled i n medicine...”
He felt like shriveling when he found out that the excuse he gave was the exact same story that the others had supplied.
Still, Sam had no choice. It would be way too suspicious if he claimed that Fane's fighting prowess far surpassed his. It so happened that Fane was skilled in medicine, and that was why the story of Fane saving him was flawless.
Despite that, he never anticipated that his comrades shared the same train of thought on their excuse.
"Ethan won't use this excuse, right?"
Lana thought about it before she said," After all, Ethan's such a skilled doctor, and everybody acknowledges him as a miracle
doctor. Ethan probably won’t convince anyone if he uses that excuse."
Everyone nodded at Lana's speculation. It would be preposterous if the nine Gods of War used the exact same excuse, and no one would believe them.
