Chapter 1480


    Car! did not possess an ounce of care for what Zeke''s intentions were, and reprimanded him at once.


    ‘Nicole... You...”


    Zeke had no knowledge as to what Nicole had gone through prior to this. It was only then that he finally


    noticed the bruises and injuries on Nicole''s arm. At that point, he was flooded with guilt from the inside.


    After she had seen Zeke''s look of guilt and embarrassment, she finally lost it and yelled, "That''s


    enough. Stop it, Carl!"


    Carl fell silent after she had shouted at him. However, he was still heaving with anger. He continued


    staring at Zeke, thinking that he had stopped that ungrateful man.


    However, it was then that Nicole said, "While this object may bring US unknown danger, no one else


    can make better use of it other than the organization, provided it is for the right reasons. Besides, the


    Guzman family are people of the military. It will be a disaster for them if one of their own attains such


    power."


    Not expecting Nicole to be so foresighted, Zeke thought, ‘She''s right. In the end of the day, my father is


    themander of Hustuaburg, and he is indeed responsible for arge number of troops. Everyone


    will be really fearful and distrustful of the Guzman family if his son amasses power outside of the


    establishment as well. This will definitely get US into trouble!’


    Even Carl did not expect Nicole to think that far.


    ‘Right now, Zane''s organization is being targeted. While this crest maye with its own set of


    dangers, it will definitely be of great help to the organization if it''s real. It''s just that I''m really worried


    about Nicole..." Carl thought.


    Nicole saw the hints of worry in Carl''s eyes, to which she calmly responded, "If you''re worried about


    me, keep me safe. This is what you can do."

    Carl hardened his gaze at once. "Of course I can do that!"


    TH definitely protect her even if it means risking my life!’ he thought.


    “That''s good enough for me," Nicole smiled happily, diffusing the tension that was in the room before.


    Then, she looked at theputer screen.


    "Perhaps nothing will happen even if I click on it," she said as she lifted her hand and pressed her


    thumb against the fingerprint reader.


    In an instant, the fingerprint on the screen shed red,


    Then, a few words appeared on the screen.


    [Congrattions. You are the sixth-generation owner of the fire crest.]


    Soon after, a bright effect of mes shing about appeared on the screen. Within a blink of an eye, the


    me disappeared, and the image of a globe appeared. Then, at the center of the globe, the moving


    image of a signal manifested and radiated across the Earth, whereupon multiple dots lit up across the


    continents.


    An audio recording then began to y. ''The Holy Alliance has been notified of the existence of the


    sixth-generation owner. Loyal to a fault and powerless to defy you, their aid will be at your disposal.


    Those who dare rebel against you will face untold consequences!"


    Nicole ranged her eyes across the locations on the globe. They were all well-known families from the


    past hundred years, each powerful in their own right.


    The moment she became the owner of the crest, all of the families who had formed an alliance with the


    Reby family would be notified, bing her allies in the future.


    When Carl and Zeke saw this, they were both stunned. While the two looked at each other in shock,


    Nicole''s watch started ringing.


    Nicole clicked on the notification, after which a message appeared before her eyes at once.


    [Congrattions, sixth-generation owner.]


    Messages of simr wording came in one after another, with the senders being well-known and


    powerful families from different countries,


    It was then Zeke and Carl werepletely sure that the crest was real, and that all of them would obey


    Nicole should she call for it.


    ‘So, that was why those people were trying so hard to kill Nicole and I, as they wanted to reim this


    thing for their own,’ Zeke thought.


    He was shocked, but he did not regret what he had done at all.


    ‘If the whole world learned about me in an instant, I definitely would have peed myself,’ he thought.


    Nicole, on the other hand, stared at theputer screen and merely frowned.


    She turned around and looked at Carl.


    "It seems that my identity has been exposed."


    To Nicole, this did not bode well for her.
