The Return Of God Of War

The Return of God of War Chapter 591

However, the South City’s leaders’ expressions darkened when they heard that.

Tim, Stephen, and the other leaders were rendered speechless.

What’s happening here?

Didn’t we come because the God of War asked us to?

What does that have to do with that Russell guy?

We don’t even know him, so naturally, we wouldn’t offer him any help!

What is the Black family even thinking?

They must’ve misunderstood something.

As the Black family expressed their gratitude, Tim and the rest looked embarrassed.

They stared at Levi, and he just nodded understandingly.

At that, Tim declared, “That’s right! I admire Russell a lot, and the Black family represents excellence in the South City by contributing to society tirelessly. I definitely felt the need to step up when you are in trouble!”

Stephen chimed in. “Well said. Russell really is an amazing young man! We like him a lot!”

After they sung their praises, Russell blushed furiously out of embarrassment.

I didn’t even do anything, but my family keeps thinking otherwise!

He snuck a look at Levi and saw that Levi didn’t seem to be angry, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other hand, the Black family was excited beyond belief.

Firstly, the Caesar family’s onslaught is successfully thwarted.

Secondly, all the powerful figures are praising our boy, Russell!

This is such a blessing to the Black family!

“Long live the Black family! With Russell here, the Black family will stand tall for years to come! I now formally declare Russell as the next head of the family!”

Right then and there, Meredith appointed Russell as the new head of the Black family in front of everyone without any regard for Bailey and the rest.

Even so, Bailey and the rest didn’t complain about it.

With Russell’s capabilities, he will bring the Black family to greater heights, and we’ll all benefit from that.

“Mr. Cronan, what do you think about that?” Meredith asked.

Tim smiled and replied, “That works! He’s competent enough to take on that role!”

The Black family cheered excitedly, but Caitlyn and Aaron couldn’t bring themselves to feel happy about it.

They only managed to stand up for themselves when Hades and Tim arrived, both of whom had intimidated the Caesar family.

Naturally, they thought that Levi was the one who planned this, so a sense of pride overwhelmed them as they wanted to brag about their son-in-law to everyone.

However, in the end, Levi had nothing to do with it, and instead, Russell was the one who took the credit.

It was only natural they couldn’t accept that “fact”.

Levi came in and turned the tide of battle, but in the end, it had nothing to do with him!

I-I don’t know what to say about this…

Zoey felt the same way as them.

She thought that Levi led them all to victory, but the credit was forcefully snatched away from him.

Meanwhile, Abigail couldn’t take it anymore.

Levi was the mastermind behind this! Russell had nothing to do with it!

“Grandma, Levi was the one who called them. Undeniably, Russell deserves some credit, but Levi should be the one recognized for it,” Abigail said to everyone in a huff and shocked everyone.

It did seem like Levi was the one calling the shots back then.

In hindsight, Russell had nothing to do with it…

Bailey retorted out of displeasure, “Abigail, what are you talking about? Mr. Cronan and Mr. McKay admitted that they came for Russell’s sake, so what does it have to do with Levi?”

Abigail snickered. “Uncle, tell me then, why did Levi make the call earlier?”

The Return of God of War Chapter 592

Bailey smiled and said, “The answer is simple! Since Russell is unwilling to show off, I attributed everything to Levi’s efforts. Can’t you tell?”

“Yes, that’s right! Given how Russell normally keeps a low profile, he’ll definitely not be interested in something so showy. Leaving to Levi was only natural.”

Meredith and Robert nodded in agreement before responding with, “That’s right, Abigail. Russell is normally quite circumspect, so he just let Levi have the limelight this time.”

Everyone else murmured in agreement.

“You guys!” exclaimed Abigail in exasperation. She was pissed off as this was obviously Levi’s doing.

However, not only did the Black family refuse all good intentions, but they also even insisted that Russell did this while deliberately letting Levi take the limelight.

“Do you have any idea…” retorted Abigail, but before she could complete her sentence, she was interrupted by Levi. “Abigail, let it go. It doesn’t matter who did it,” he said before continuing. “The Black family crisis has been averted, and we should now focus on the Caesar family.”

Hearing Levi’s reminder, everyone bristled. The Caesar family was their main concern, after all.

“What?” stammered Patrick. Now that all eyes were on him, he was afraid.

“You may set foot in South City, but don’t think of getting away so easily,” responded Levi with a smile.

“Yes, that’s right,” piped Alfie. “Nobody will let you!”

“I… I… I’m leaving it all up to you!” stammered Patrick once more. He lay on the ground and dared not lift his head.

“I’ve heard that the Caesar family wishes to contribute to the development of South City? How about this then – give us half of your family fortune to be invested in the city’s growth!”

“What?” There was a collective roar of disbelief from the Caesar family the moment Levi uttered those words. They looked at him like he was crazy.

Half of the family fortune? Were they trying to ruin the Caesar family?

“Don’t worry. I’m not done yet. I did say it was easy to come here but hard to leave, no? If you want to leave, we want ten million each in payment. Surely this is reasonable?” Levi smirked as he uttered this.

“What? One million per person?” Patrick balked at the figure, feeling like his eyes were about to pop.

There were nine hundred people in total, which added up to ten million each. It was a whopping nine billion!

Yet, Levi was far from done. “Wait, there’s even more! The Black family had suffered a lot of mental distress. Let’s put that to about one billion then!”

Patrick huffed, feeling his blood boil.

Ten billion and half of the family fortune, they might as well ask for our lives!

“By the way, couldn’t you at least bring some gifts to South City for charity? I hear that some projects could use your help, so why don’t you take up some of those?”

Levi smiled again, after saying his piece.

Patrick felt like his soul was about to leave his body out of anger. This is preposterous!

A few of Tim Cronan’s associates responded immediately, saying, “That’s right! There are seven of such projects, and they’re short of about seven hundred million!”

Smiling still, Levi said, “This amount shouldn’t be of any trouble to you, right?”

“N-no, it’s no problem,” replied Patrick, stuttering. Right now, he truly wished to die.

In this dispute, the Black family emerged victorious, while the Caesar family suffered a crushing defeat.

This was a massive blow to the Caesar family.

“My word, look at your son-in-law in action! It’s like he’s truly in charge here,” came Pamela’s disdainful remark, directed at Caitlyn.

“Yes, this was clearly Russell’s decision, so why is Levi showing off here?”

“Isn’t it so? He’s here pushing his luck, so I’m really not used to seeing this!”

“He has his uses, I guess. If Russell had solved it, he probably wouldn’t have even raised the issue of mental distress and that hefty sum. Only Levi would be that shameless!”

The Black family ridiculed him, one after the other. However, since Levi did have his merits, they did not give him that much flack.

After everyone left, Meredith and Robert embraced Russell. “Oh Russell,” they cried, “you truly are the greatest pride of the Black family!”

The Return of God of War Chapter 593

The two cried with joy, and shed tears of happiness.

“Our family is so lucky to have someone like Russell!”

Everyone looked at Russell with adoration and admiration.

From today onwards, Russell became the most important member of the Black family. He would be the cornerstone of the Black family’s development in the future.

Meredith directed her gaze at Levi and remarked, “Well, you deserve some credit as well since you were at the forefront with Russell.”

Of course, some credit had to be given to Russell’s upstanding character. He was approachable and treated everyone in the family justly. Even though we saw you as just average, Levi, Russell convinced us to treat you well and value your presence, she thought.

“In the future, Levi, you should learn more from Russell. He was very optimistic about having you around. Follow him, and you’ll turn out fine.”

While she was obviously praising some of Levi’s merits, it became mostly praise for Russell as well.

Meanwhile, Russell felt embarrassed and lowered his head. He had not dared to look at Levi.

His fists were tightly clenched, and he secretly wished the ground would swallow him whole.

Even Abigail felt slightly ashamed.

Russell was being praised to high heaven, but only if they knew he had nothing to do with it.

Meredith then turned to address both Caitlyn and Aaron. “I know you have been wronged in the last few days,” she said, “but Russell values the both of you. You can always call on the Black family if you need us in the future.”

“Thank you, Mom and Dad!” replied Caitlyn and Aaron.

“If you want to thank someone, thank Russell,” said Meredith haughtily.

With that, Aaron and Caitlyn made their way to Russell, thanking their nephew profusely.

“Aunt, Uncle, really, there’s no need,” said Russell, putting a stop to the display immediately.

If he made Levi angry, there would be hell to pay.

Just then, a car drove into the compound.

Logan and Jennie had arrived.

Earlier, when the Black family was facing trouble, they disappeared without a trace. But when the problem had been resolved, they appeared out of nowhere.

“Remember that issue involving Grandpa and Grandma? I summoned all those important people! My father and the rest had to plead with them so hard before they relented!” said Logan, without any shame.
