Impatiently, Clyde snapped, “For goodness’s sake, if you want to be a sycophant, you have to do better than that.

Your flattery skills leave a lot to be deSired.”

Henry looked rather awkward.

Clyde continued, “Let me ask you this. Do you want to become an official member of our clan and work for Ares?”

Henry nodded ferociously. “Why, yes, of course.”

Clyde smiled. “Good. But there’s something you should help me with first.”

“After this, I’ll personally make you an official clan member, and arrange for you to be Ares’s assistant.”

“When you become an official member of the Thisleton clan, many more opportunities will be open to you. You

won’t be working here as a security guard for much longer.”

Gratefully, Henry said, “Sir, what shall I do?”

Clyde replied, “In a few moments, the Great Marshal, Zeke Williams, will be arriving at the Grand Ceremony.”

“I want you to prevent him from entering.”

Huh?

Henry’s face had gone entirely pale. He seemed as though he was going to start foaming at the mouth any minute.

“Um...Sir, I’m afraid I can’t do that.”

“The people who have personally been invited to this ceremony by the colonel are very powerful people. I can’t

afford to offend them.”

“Besides, Zeke Williams is the Great Marshal for a reason.”

“I’m afraid he might kill me on the spot.”

Clyde sneered in reply. “Zeke Williams is nothing more than a useless cripple! What’s there to be afraid of?”

“Besides, I promise you won’t have to shoulder the blame. I’ll make sure this never gets traced back to you.”

Under the pressure of Clyde’s thinly veiled threats, Henry reluctantly agreed to the task.

Half an hour before the Grand Ceremony was slated to begin, Zeke Williams finally showed up.

He had come alone.

At first, he had debated whether or not to bring Lacey along. He desperately wanted to let her know that her

husband wasn’t a cripple and was in fact capable of being the world’s greatest warrior.

Unfortunately, Lacey had no interest in this sort of ceremonies.

She announced that she preferred to stay at home and take care of company matters and had no wish to join the

raucous crowds at the ceremony.

It was too bad. Zeke Williams could only hurry to the coronation by himself.

Thankfully, Lacey was watching the live broadcast at home.

She would still be able to watch as her husband took over the world.

When Zeke arrived at the entrance of the Great Hall of the People, the head of the security detail accosted him.

“Good morning, Sir. Please come along with me.”

“We’ve made special arrangements for you.”

With no reason to suspect him, Zeke followed him away from the entrance.

He was the main character today. Since he was the one who was going to be crowned, it was quite reasonable that

there would be special arrangements made for him.

For instance, they could be pulling him aside to do his makeup or run him through a rehearsal.

After a great deal of walking, Henry finally led him into his personal waiting room.

“Sir, please wait here until the ceremony starts.”

Alright.

Zeke sat down on a chair, leaned back and shut his eyes to nap.

Twenty minutes passed. The ceremony was about to begin, but Henry wasn’t back yet, and he hadn’t told him

where to go.

Unable to wait any longer, Zeke stood up to leave.

At that moment, however, Henry sprinted back into the room and stopped him from leaving.

“Sir, please halt.”

“You can’t leave yet.”

By now, Zeke was starting to feel rather frustrated. “What arrangements have been made for me?”

Henry replied, “We just received a tip-off that you’re carrying dangerous explosives on you. Please cooperate as we

carry out a thorough body search on you.”

Huh?

It was then that Zeke finally realized something was amiss.

I’m going to be crowned as the King Class Warrior today. Why would I carry explosives to my own coronation

ceremony?

Evidently, Henry is just looking for an excuse to bully me.

Looking at Henry, Zeke felt a little contemptuous. This man is just the head of the security detail. Where did he find

the courage to pick on the Great Marshal himself?

It seemed as though someone more powerful had organized this ambush ahead of time.

Zeke smiled coldly at Henry. “What if I refuse to cooperate?”

He was the Great Marshal and the world’s first King Class warrior! How could he tolerate being searched by a

security guard?

Warningly, Henry replied, “If you don’t cooperate, I’m afraid we might have to use force on you.”
