“I wouldn’t dare make up something like that, Mr. Wyatt!” the servant
stammered, drenched in sweat, waving his hands frantically in denial.
Wyatt considered this for a moment, then gave the servant a light push,
sending him away.
Just then, Gwain emerged with a stormy expression, his voice sharp as he
commanded, “Find out who killed one of our top martial servants. This is a
declaration of war against the Lannister family! Find him, and let the war
begin!”
Ever since Eric had gone into seclusion, seemingly vanishing from the world,
Gwain had been responsible for handling the family’s affairs. As the heir
apparent, he had to manage any major incidents affecting the family. With

es, Mr. Gwain! The police are already investigating, and we’ve contacted
several sources. The truth should be uncovered soon,” the servant explained,
keeping his head bowed. But Gwain wasn’t satisfied with “soon.” He wanted
answers now, so he immediately called the police station himself.
“Mr. Gwain, the case is still under investigation,” the lead investigator began.
“However, based on witness statements and a few clues, the evidence points
to one man.”
“Who?” Gwain growled, his voice filled with rage.
“A man named Emmanuel Lowe. According to our findings, Mr. Sheridan had

contact with him just before his death. It appears they had some kind of
confrontation, and Mr. Lowe even took Mr. Sheridan’s fiancee’s necklace.
Witnesses also overheard the killers mentioning someone named ‘Ms.
Roselynn,‘ who is confirmed to be Mr. Lowe’s sister.”

“Him?!” Gwain’s rage momentarily faltered, his initial shock causing his
bloodlust to diminish slightly. Wyatt noticed the change in his expression. But
Gwain quickly regained his anger, clenching his teeth and fists. “Gather the
evidence and prove that it was him. I won’t let him walk away from this alive!”
He hung up the phone, his anger quickly reigniting as he considered the
situation.
Wyatt hesitated but eventually spoke up. “Mr. Gwain, from what I know about

him later in an ambush. And shouting out something like ‘Ms. Roselynn‘ before
the attack? It doesn’t add up!”
Shut up!” Gwain snapped at him, his voice icy. “That man has insulted me for
too long! Just because I didn’t challenge him last time, he thinks I’m afraid of
him!”
Wyatt wisely held his tongue after that, sensing that Gwain’s emotions were
clouding his judgment. He couldn’t help but feel that pinning the blame on
Emmanuel without a thorough investigation was rash. Gwain, who used to be
more composed, seemed to have lost his cool after the recent series of
events, particularly the growing rivalry and animosity.
Meanwhile, Emmanuel had returned to the large villa he was temporarily
renting. Though the place was nice, it was just a rental. With his sister

Emmanuel usually didn’t need to personally guard him. He left that task to

After being exhausted from recent events, Emmanuel planned to get a good
night’s sleep. However, just as he was settling in, the blare of sirens rang out
from outside the villa.

“What’s going on? This villa is off–limits to unauthorized personnel!” The Wolf
Warrior members stationed outside quickly moved to block the intruders.
Stand aside! I’m Francis Slyfield, head of the Zovince Zone 3 Homicide
Division,” a tall, muscular man with thick eyebrows and sharp eyes barked as
he stepped forward. His commanding presence was hard to ignore. “I’m here
to investigate a possible suspect involved in a murder case tonight!”
Behind him stood a squad of well–equipped officers, all carrying advanced
gear. Their aggressive approach was their standard procedure. Usually, even
the most brazen individuals would surrender at the sight of their holstered
firearms. But that night, it was different.
The guards at the villa immediately raised their guns, their voices cold and
commanding. “Did you not hear me? No unauthorized personnel can enter

this villa. Who dares to trespass?”
They had strict orders to protect Roselynn–nothing, not even a fly, could be
et inside without clearance. Now that Roselynn was still inside, their orders
remained unchanged.
Francis visibly flinched at the sight. His men, however, weren’t intimidated,
drawing their guns in response. In an instant, the atmosphere was charged
with tension, both sides ready to pull the trigger.
Éven though the Wolf Warrior guards were outnumbered, they didn’t show
any sign of weakness.
“How dare you pull guns on us? Who do you work for?” Francis barked, trying
to apply pressure. But the two Wolf Warriors remained unfazed, their stance

unyielding.
“You are obstructing an official investigation. I’ll count to three. If you don’t
wer your weapons, don’t blame us for what happens next!” Francis said,
drawing his gun. Still, the guards stood their ground.
“D*mn it!” Francis cursed under his breath, his men bracing for a showdown. It
had been a long time since they’d faced such resistance.
Just then, Emmanuel and Sage stepped out of the villa.
Seeing the supposed “suspect,” Francis froze in place. His team had assumed
that Emmanuel had ordered the guards to stall while he fled, but here he
was, casually walking out as if he had nothing to fear.

“Captain, this guy’s pretty cocky, huh?” the deputy muttered behind him.
Francis ignored him, his attention entirely on Emmanuel. Someone who could

Suddenly, Sage reached into the inner pocket of his coat.
“Don’t make any sudden moves, or we will shoot!” Francis yelled, his nerves on
edge. But Sage didn’t stop. He calmly pulled out a small green booklet from
his pocket.

age flipped open the booklet and held it out in front of Francis. His voice was
cold as he asked, “Still planning on shooting?”
Francis blinked several times, his body stiffening as he stared at the
credentials before him. Slowly, his gaze shifted back to Emmanuel, his
expression turning from shock to fear.
“Captain, are you okay?” the deputy asked, worried that Francis might have
been hit by some sort of strange spell, seeing him freeze up like that.
“Lower your guns! Now!” Francis suddenly ordered, his voice sharp and
urgent, his face drenched in sweat. His command left his deputy and the rest
of his team stunned.

“Didn’t you hear me? Lower your weapons!” Francis holstered his gun and
even pushed down his deputy’s hand to make sure his gun was put away.
The other officers finally followed suit, their expressions confused and
shocked as they holstered their weapons. What kind of person was this that
could make their captain panic like this?
“Withdraw!” Francis barked, his forehead now glistening with cold sweat. He
wasn’t even going to continue the investigation.
It wasn’t just because of the respect he held for Emmanuel’s identity–it was
also because he lacked the authority to arrest someone of his stature. To
detain someone like Emmanuel, he would need permission from the highest
government levels. As the head of a local precinct in Zovince, Francis didn’t
have that kind of power. Even if he wanted to make the arrest, he lacked the

would be able to argue on their behalf.
Hold on,” Emmanuel called out just as Francis was about to lead his men
away.
“What did you come here for? Explain yourself before you leave,” Emmanuel
said, his instincts telling him something wasn’t right. Francis may not have
been able to touch him, but he needed to understand the situation to
prevent further complications that could make things worse for him.
