"Marquis of Campbell, long ti no see. We ca to visit this ti, hope you don't mind." Ericson Lewis said as he walked beside his wife.
The Marquis of Campbell frowned at the sight of him.
"Duke Lewis, what are you doing here? I rember you refused to join us back then."
Ericson shrugged.
"At that ti, I couldn't accept. I wasn't bored enough to agree to join a group that wanted to have fun. But lately, everything has been boring, so I ca to visit. It's not too much trouble to receive us, is it? Not just a lot of us, , my wife, and a few of my most loyal subordinates."
The Marquis of Campbell was puzzled by this, but he could not reveal anything. Although it was against the Laws of the Nobility Club, he could do little against a Duke, so he nodded.
"Haha, if you want to join us now, you are welco, Duke Lewis. Please go ahead. There's room for everyone, and today will be a bit special." He replied, and then Ericson Lewis passed through with no problem.
Marquis of Campbell looked at the guy's subordinates and frowned.
'Why do I feel that they are more powerful and strange than usual?' he thought, looking at them sideways. Still, he did nothing and continued to receive guests.
Many ca in until, finally, there was no one left outside.
The Marquis of Campbell was a bit confused by several things, but as he was about to turn around to attend to his guests, he frowned after feeling various powerful people appeared.
"Hahaha, Marquis of Campbell, long ti no see!" an old man shouted.
Marquis of Campbell frowned and turned to look at him.
For a mont, he felt stunned at the sight of him.
"Mr. Cyn?" he asked in shock at the sight of him.
He was coming along with several people a little younger than him, several in fact.
'Reagan Cooper… Mr. Cyn is part of the Kingdom?" he thought in shock.
The man who had spoken to him chuckled, "Hahaha. I knew an old acquaintance might recognize . It's been over 100 years since I last saw you, and you've changed a lot," he said.
This man was also known as Lord Leader, and this was the first ti Reagan Cooper and those who ca along with him heard a different way of calling him.
That na made them frown.
None of them knew who this man was. They only knew that he was an old ally of the Kingdom.
So, they did not expect the Marquis of Campbell to know him to that extent.
Still, his presence here actually made the Marquis feel pressured.
'Shit, this is dangerous.' He thought.
"Marquis Campbell, I guess it's okay if I co in with my friends, right? We recently got together for a few drinks, but a lot of things have changed, so we wanted a change of scenery." Lord Cyn said, and Marquis Campbell frowned.
"Mr. Cyn, I'm afraid I can't do that. To enter the Nobility Club requires tokens to enter; I already made one exception, and I can't make any more, or they will say I have no word to stop the strong." He replied.
Still, Lord Cyn simply smiled and nodded.
"That's right, don't worry. I asked a friend to lend his token before he left town, so I think I can get in." Replied Lord Cyn, pulling out the token in his hand.
'Philip Baker?' thought the Marquis of Campbell after seeing it.
He could identify the tokens he himself had issued, so he was sure of it.
'That guy... Was he caught? Shit, this is urgent. These bastards must have a lot more information than I thought.' He thought to himself as he beca slightly desperate.
His heart started pounding, but outwardly, he smiled.
"If so, you can go in. But I can't allow the others to enter; I hope you understand ." He replied.
At that mont, one of the people standing next to Reagan Cooper smiled and put a bottle of strong alcohol in his mouth.
He swallowed a drink hard and then glared fiercely at the Marquis of Campbell.
"Ah? What did you say you won't let us in? Marquis, you must know my identity. How dare you disrespect soone in the army? Even though I'm not on duty, you must still be respectful," he said, imdiately revealing his full strength.
Reagan Cooper looked at the door and understood why that guy had acted like that, then smiled and did the sa thing.
"The fact that a Marquis is rude in front of and tells I'm not qualified, I don't know if I like it very much, Marquis Campbell." Reagan Cooper replied fiercely, but before he could demand entrance for amusent, the Lord Cyn in front of him frowned and pinched him lightly.
He gave him a quick glance that made Reagan Cooper giddy.
'Did he feel anything? Shit, we have to be quick.' He thought and changed his words and actions.
Without hesitation, he flashed his main token.
"As the Commander-in-Chief of the Army, I, Reagan Cooper, demand entry to the compound, Marquis Campbell. By edict and command of the King, you are under arrest for investigation of the alleged sale of illicit substances and treason against the Kingdom. I ask you to cooperate with the authorities.
We don't want to bother the leaders of the City with sothing so small." He said, his last words more forcefully.
But his words shocked even his allies, 'So fast!?' Was the question that rumbled in their minds. After all, it wasn't supposed to be ti yet!
Even so, they imdiately unleashed their powers.
Many people appeared from one side to the other at that very mont.
Though stunned, Even the Army Generals soon realized sothing was wrong, so they imdiately tore their strange robes, and their army garnts beca visible.
"Marquis Campbell, it's ti you got your due sentence under justice!"
All these shouts stunned those inside the Nobility Club, who could not help but co out to see what was going on.
But none of them thought that, after coming out, so words would reach their ears, "All those who were inside the Nobility Club are also arrested; you will be duly investigated later!"
That created chaos in the place.
"What's going on? What the hell do you think you're doing!?" several nobles shouted, but the sheer number of people pushed them back with their glares.
Then, Lord Cyn moved fiercely forward. His passive and calm attitude changed imdiately as he tried to grab the Marquis of Campbell fiercely.
"Marquis Campbell, you were found to be a traitor to the Kingdom, therefore you must be punished!" These words shook the surroundings, along with the extraordinary power of this older man.
Even so, Marquis Campbell forcefully jumped back, dodging the grip at the last mont.
"Hmph, so this is how you all want to do things. Pretty naive if you ask , Reagan Cooper. You're not as good as I thought," Marquis Campbell said, smiling slightly.
Along with his words, many people from the surrounding area also ca out. Their powers were trendous.
Reagan Cooper smiled, "Well, your mistake will always be thinking that I am the leader this ti. Marquis Campbell, the evidence is enough this ti; it's ti for you to pay your sentence."
At the sa ti, one of the people standing next to Campbell flashed with power and gave him a heavy blow on the back.
That blow was enough to make Campbell spit blood and be pushed forward.
That also surprised all his allies and a shout from Campbell flashed through the place, "You bastard, you traitor!" he shouted as he flashed his power and faced head-on against Reagan Cooper's blow.
"Accept your fate, Marquis of Campbell!" he shouted.
At the sa ti, many people displayed their powers with a roar as they surrounded all of Marquis of Campbell's allies.
Yet, just at that precise instant, terrifying presences reached all of them.
