Chapter 1007

The security team leader and a group of Peace号's security personnel, upon seeing Lu En conversing with the middle-aged noble, felt only waves of dread and unease.

Clearly visible,

sweat poured down their foreheads, their eyes brimming with tension.

"Damn it!"

"That fat pig…"

"Dares he try to recruit such a monster as his personal guard? Does he even deserve to?"

"Does he even know what a terrifying beast this five-year-old boy is?!"

"Ignorance is fearless!"

"Damn!"

One by one, the security personnel clenched their fists, filled with deep resentment and anger toward the middle-aged noble.

Of course.

Yet, they dared not voice these words aloud.

With their current strength, they still lacked the qualification to directly challenge a noble.

At this moment,

Old John was also startled by Lu En's words.

"He, he refused…"

"Not only refused."

"But also gave not the slightest shred of face to the noble."

He was stunned.

Directly confronting a noble?

Is he really that bold?

Young friend Lu En…

Seems even more terrifying than imagined!

On the other side,

After receiving Lu En's response, the middle-aged noble's face flushed red, as if consumed by furious rage; he instinctively clenched his fists, his fat face suffused with burning anger.

He glared fixedly at Lu En.

"Rejected!"

"This brat…"

"Dares he refuse my offer?"

"I am a royal noble of the Gama Kingdom!"

"This brat dares refuse me? Across the entire sea, how many have begged to become my guard—and I chose to reject them? This boy is utterly oblivious to his own fortune."

"Damn! Damn it!"

The middle-aged noble was enraged and humiliated.

Revenge!

He must retaliate with crushing force!

Otherwise…

Where would his dignity as a royal noble of the Gama Kingdom stand?

How could a noble like himself be refused by a commoner?

Unacceptable!

Unforgivable!

The middle-aged noble was furious.

In fact,

He had already devised a plan to retaliate against Lu En.

But just then,

Beside him,

A beautiful noblewoman dressed in lavish robes stared fixedly at Lu En's figure with her lovely eyes, her delicate, charming face suffused with profound shock.

She had just remembered something utterly terrifying!

"He, he is…"

The noblewoman opened her mouth, her beautiful eyes filled with awe.

"Such a familiar boy…"

"As if I had seen him somewhere before."

"I must have met him."

"This boy is no insignificant nobody."

"Anyone who leaves an impression on me cannot be some nameless nobody of the sea."

"He must be renowned."

The noblewoman thought this to herself.

She firmly believed it.

"Who is he?!"

"I've definitely seen him before!"

"He is…"

The beautiful woman fell into thought.

After a long while,

a flash of insight struck her, and she arrived at the final answer.

But this final answer left her mind utterly blank.

"I—my heavens!"

"Could it really be him?!"

"I'm right here…"

"I ran into him?!"

"This, this!"

Her throat was dry; her lips trembled slightly, her words halting.

She seemed to have grasped the truth.

Only—

this truth shook her to her core.

So much so…

that she began to stammer.

At the same moment,

when she noticed the noble middle-aged man's furious, humiliated expression…

she forcibly suppressed her inner shock, thought for a moment, and realized the evil intent in his heart.

So,

she spoke calmly to the noble middle-aged man beside her.

"I advise you to calm down."

"Do not try to provoke a being you cannot possibly afford to anger. Otherwise, not only will you not survive, but even the power behind you cannot save you."

"Even…"

"the kingdom behind you may pay an excruciating price for your actions!"

She knew very well…

just how terrifying the five-year-old boy truly was!

Precisely because of this,

she did not wish to see

this middle-aged noble beside her waste his life pointlessly.

Only by seeing the truth…
