Chapter 200
Timothy and Elisa arrived at the Cain family villa in Lannopolis.
Instead of going to the hotel arranged for Timothy by Lannopolis's government officials, they had come here straight away.
The motorcade stopped at the entrance to the villa, and Timothy and Elisa got out of the car. They headed straight for the front door of the villa.
"May I ask who you are, esteemed guests? Please wait outside for a moment, and I will inform Mr. Cain of your arrival," the guard at the door said politely. He could tell that these were important people.
Timothy did not even glance at him. He led Elisa directly inside.
"How dare you invade the home of a national hero? Shouldn't you stop here?" The guard's face was thunderous.
"Preposterous! How dare you block the way of the Martial League Overseer? Do you want to die?" shouted one of the people escorting Timothy. “The Martial League Overseer?" The Cain family's staff were all stunned for a moment, and no one dared to stop Timothy again.
"Timothy, it's not nice of us to just barge in this way. After all, Victor Cain is a national hero here in Lannopolis. He's respected and renowned." Elisa was a little nervous.Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
“So? What if he's a national hero? I'm the Martial League Overseer presently. Any member of the Martial League in Lannopolis has to answer to me, even if they are national heroes!"
He led Elisa into the villa. Anyone who dared to get in their way was pushed to the floor by the team escorting them.
"Victor, shouldn't you come out and welcome me?" Timothy shouted, and his voice echoed through the whole villa.
Not long after, Victor walked out with a dark face.
He was a national hero and a legend in Lannopolis. No one dared to make such a commotion in his home, except for Dustin a few days ago.
"Wow! How great it must be to be the Martial League Overseer!" he said sarcastically. He was obviously displeased.
Even if Timothy was the Martial League Overseer who had been sent from Central Harbor, he should still show Victor some respect.
"I am a member of the Bones family and have the Martial League's Gold Token. Don't tell me that's not enough to get you to come out and talk to me?" Timothy's tone of voice was icy.
"The Bones family... The Gold Token?" Victor's face instantly changed.
The Bones family was very important. Even though Victor was a national hero, he had to be wary of them.
As for the Martial League's Gold Token, it was a very high-level token that gave the person carrying it a lot of power. It marked the person as one of the higher-ups in the Martial League.
"Sir, welcome to my humble home," said Victor and bowed to Timothy despite a dark expression on his face.
"Wow, Timothy! You're really impressive. You even got a national hero to bow to you!" Elisa said excitedly.
Timothy smiled. He enjoyed the praise.
"I was tasked by the Martial League to investigate the massacre of the Aquila family." Timothy glanced at Victor.
"I'm planning to set up a martial
court at your villa and invite
important people to watch the
et
proceedings. We will try the criminal Dustin Fox in public. Have your staff
make the proper arranges for
that."
Timothy's condescending order annoyed Victor very much. However, when he heard that Timothy was going to try Dustin in open court, he was taken aback.
This would be much more formal than the trial he had conducted a few days ago.
When he recalled the fight between Dustin and Metal Mask, his heart sank.
"I can set up the martial court, but as I am too old for this, I will not be able to attend. Sir, you will have to handle everything," said Victor after some thought.
This displeased Timothy greatly.
"You're too old? I see that you are
old?!

still very active, Mr. Cain. You can still do a lot and contribute to the Martial League. If Fox dares to resist arrest you still need to help out if
necessary, I will need you to capture him."
