Chapter 1754


    Chapter 1754


    Looking at therge-bellied man—who was staring at Gerald and his group—, Gerald already knew


    that he was trouble. More urately, he felt that the fat man was a bandit and a in bully in the


    vige.


    While Gerald wasn’t too keen on getting into contact with him or his subordinates, he still put on a smile


    as he replied, “It’s just some food, but all of it has already been exchanged and taken by the vigers!”


    Hearing that, the big-bellied man then raised his head before dering, “Listen here! I’m called Fane


    and I’m the boss of this vige! Since you’vee to my vige, you should hand us something as a


    wee gift! Otherwise, it’ll be hard for me to allow you to stay here!”


    Upon hearing that, Gerald instantly knew that Fane was merely a gangster trying to ckmail them for


    money. While the threats would surely fool the more gullible people, Gerald was experienced with


    people like Fane. With that in mind, he wasn’t about to allow Fane to take advantage of them.


    Regardless, before Gerald could even reply, Fane—who had his gaze fixed on Juno and Nori for a


    while now—revealed a sinister smile before saying, “Oho, those two beauties at the back look rather


    nice!”


    Hearing that, Gerald instantly stepped in between him and the two girls before staring straight in the


    eye at Fane while saying, “Sir, we’re merchants who are here to do business! Now that we’ve sold all


    our goods, we should leave!”


    Just as he signaled for Juno and Nori to begin leaving, Gerald heard as Fane angrily shouted, “Stop


    right there! Did I say you could leave? I told you, if you wish to leave, you have to leave something


    behind! Otherwise, don’t even dream of getting out of the vige!”


    When he heard that, Gerald’s expression instantly soured. Looking at Fane—who was ring all high


    and mightily at him—Gerald was pretty sure that the fat man wasn’t about to take him seriously anytime


    soon.


    With that in mind, Gerald could only think, ‘How absolutely shameless… To think that he so badly


    wants to stand against me! Well, that’s just great! I won’t hesitate to deal with you too, then! Daring to


    even have ulterior motives against me… You truly are courting death!’


    “Then, what exactly do you wish for me to leave behind?” asked Gerald in a casual tone.


    Laughing out loud, Fane then dered, “You can either hand over all your money or leave those two


    women behind!” scoffed Fane as he snorted while looking lustfully at Juno and Nori.


    “And if I’m reluctant to do either?” replied Gerald.


    “You mother*cker! Are you ying dumb now? If you want to be this defiant, I’ll just order my men to


    ruin you!” growled Fane.

    Before Fane could say anything else, however, he quickly found himself flying backward!


    Naturally, this was because Gerald had made a move.


    Not only was Fane vulgar toward him, but he even had such ulterior motives on Juno and Nori! The


    combination of the two was definitely enough to warrant being taught a lesson by Gerald.


    Regardless, after seeing their boss getting beaten up, Fane’s subordinates instantly rushed toward


    Gerald to avenge him.


    Of course, Gerald simply countered their assaults with lightning-fast kicks without the slightest


    hesitation.


    As all of them were promptly taken out in a single hit, Gerald couldn’t help but feel that they were all


    idiots for even daring to look for trouble with him when they were so weak.


    Ray and the others, on the other hand, simply watched the scene y out in silence. After all, they


    knew that nothing bad would happen to them with Gerald there.
