Chapter 96 : Honest
The head of the Wilson Family, Logan, is probably seen as heartless by most people because he is completely hostile to such a beautiful woman like Miya.
Some people think he is too crazy for wealth.
Of course, everyone knew that he gained many hidden benefits by antagonizing Miya.
His coming this time was really purely to ask for an explanation because his son had been beaten up by her secretary and nephew twice.
Unlike usual, he was very sensitive now, especially since his first son, Leo, had gone missing and hadn't been found until now.
Unfortunately, his journey to ask Miya for an explanation didn't go so smoothly as there were two military generals standing in his way.
Joe who is only a 1-Star General is not so scary to him, and he is also his close friend. However, this could not be said for Elon, the 3-Star General, someone who was truly influential.
He did not expect this man to suddenly appear here.
And why would Joe, who is his close friend, also get in the way?
Because of these few things, things were getting confusing for Logan.
"Logan, what do you want? Do you want to claim justice for your useless son?" Miya suddenly asked him a question in her cold tone.
This gave the confused Logan a chance to speak.
"Miya, if you think violence can always be used, I can beat you up now," he said loudly.
He looked filled with rage and he was indeed provoked.
Coming here, he had already thrown away his pride. If he came back defeated, people would laugh at him.
After all, there were many people watching right now in this compound, from their respective mansions.
"What? Logan? Who gave you the courage to say that in front of me? Didn't you see me here? What if you duel with me?"
Elon suddenly became very angry as well. Who knew why, either because he felt disrespected or this was his way of making Miya happy.
Maybe it was both.
As a 3-Star General, maybe for him Logan should just leave and forget about this matter since he was involved.
"General Elon, I don't think it's right for you to interfere." Suddenly the mayor also spoke, sounding soft, but making Elon knit his brows.
Although the man was only a mayor, his influence had increased drastically recently, especially because of his son who had an SS Class Skill.
Plus he seemed to have a hidden power that people were starting to sense.
Elon couldn't say he came for no purpose.
After all, the man knew that Miya had power even though he didn't know as much as him because at that time in the restaurant, he was the one who felt the woman's power the most.
Perhaps he had just reached the point of speculating that Miya was the Ice Knight. Here, he might want to confirm it.
"Oliver, it's a bit too chaotic here," Isabel said to Oliver in a low voice.
It was like she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
Now, their presence hadn't really been noticed because they were quite far behind Miya. Only Kim Hana accompanied her to the front.
"There's always chaos when people with different interests get together," Oliver replied.
His focus this time was only on the mayor.
Like Elon, he wanted to know his true intentions, and what he was relying on to come here.
He thought he hadn't just come relying on his son.
"Miles, do you want to help Logan?" Miya put the question to the mayor, calling his name directly without a special nickname.
Asked, the mayor calmly replied, "Boss Miya, Boss Logan just wants an explanation because his son has been injured by your nephew. He was just able to walk but now he has to use a cane again. This makes him unable to raise his level."
When speaking, the man looked polite all the time.
The way he addressed Miya and Logan was his habit of addressing the businessmen in Vera, calling them bosses.
"There's no explanation he can get here," Miya replied directly.
She practically said something that made people helpless.
Surprisingly enough, after she spoke, Raphael, the mayor's son also spoke.
"Lady Miya, your attitude is too much. We are all civilized people here," he said, looking more polite than the mayor himself.
"Boy, this is not your place to talk." Miya looked at him coldly because of his words, scolding him instantly.
From her point of view, he was naturally just a boy.
Others looked at him differently because of his strength, but she didn't take that strength seriously.
Of course, being called a boy like that was rather annoying to Raphael.
He seemed to be holding back his expression from changing.
"Lady Miya, I am only telling the truth," he said again, forcing himself to use a calm tone.
"We do not need the truth from you."
Oliver who had been standing at the back for a long time finally came forward, saying something to make people turn their eyes towards him.
Alex, Mateo, and his colleagues were instantly annoyed when they saw him.
The former was even more annoyed that Isabel was also here.
"You!"
Logan immediately glared at Oliver, knowing that he was the one who made him angry and came here.
"Mr. Logan, I'm the one you want. In fact, I was the one who threw the knife to cut Alex's leg the first time," he said when Logan looked at him.
"What?" Logan and Alex and the others almost jumped at that.
After all, for Alex the first problem wasn't when Kim Hana beat him up, but when he was secretly attacked by someone.
Now Oliver was suddenly claiming that it was done by him.
Did he seriously say that?
Even Isabel was surprised to hear that.
In fact she had known for a long time that Alex had been attacked, which made him unable to continue leveling.
This was something she was quite curious about, but she had never thought about it seriously because she had no concern for Alex's fate.
"I did this because we've been enemies for a long time. Attacking your own enemy is a natural thing. I'm sure Alex would also try to harm me if he had the chance," Oliver continued.
"Unfortunately, he didn't have the chance while I did. He lost while I won. Now, he can do nothing but ask you, his father, for help. To think he dared to compete with me with his meager abilities. If I really wanted to, I could have had him die in our three encounters."
Everyone, "..."
Oliver not only spoke honestly, but so loudly. This also surprised Miya who was most familiar with him.
In the beginning, Oliver in her eyes was a quiet young man.
Lately, he had changed quite a lot.
Seeing how he was so relaxed in front of important people, she was finally made to understand why he dared to challenge her.
It wasn't just because the flashdisk was his parents' business, but because he was starting to have the traits of someone who had power.
"Oliver, how dare you!" Alex glared after knowing that fact and being belittled by him.
He panted so hard that he almost fell down.
"There's one more thing." Oliver spoke again when Logan wanted to say something to threaten him.
"Leo Wilson, you're looking for him, right?" he said.
"What?" Logan almost jumped at that.
The problem was that Leo's disappearance was something that no outsider knew about, only members of the Wilson Family did.
How did this young man know?
Logan couldn't help but be suspicious.
"What happened to Leo?" he asked.
His curiosity wasn't just because Leo was his son, but to him Leo was more important than Alex.
Not only was he more talented despite his apparent disinterest in power, he also had a girlfriend from the Montclair Family despite being a lower-ranking member.
"He's dead," Oliver replied directly, not twisting words.
"You!"
This time, it was Logan who almost fell over in shock.
"Did you kill him?" he asked.
Although he had come with the view that Miya and her nephew had no skills, he could no longer think that he couldn't do something like killing.
He was getting carried away into thinking that he could do anything.
"Yes..."
Oliver nodded.
Of course, he didn't hide that. Otherwise, he wouldn't have had to speak in the first place.
"Asshole!" Logan suddenly leapt into the air, lunging towards Oliver, over the wall surrounding the mansion grounds.
He was still healthy as a middle-aged man, plus with strong skills, he could naturally increase his level.
"Logan, how dare you!" Elon immediately shouted angrily.
Just as he wanted to do something, Raphael suddenly took a step forward and said, "General Elon, please stay out of their business."
Raphael didn't just speak. He pointed his hand forward, as if ready to activate a skill.
"You!"
Elon became even angrier because the man dared to him, a 3-star general.
However, this was something difficult for him as well because he actually felt a threatening aura from him.
