Super Devouring Level Up - Chapter 23

Chapter 23: Kneel Down

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the last three days, many major incidents had occurred in Green Valley Town.

One was Hank Warden’s death.

Secondly, a Level-two alchemist had appeared in Green Valley Town. He even became the Warden Family’s guest elder.

As soon as the news came out, there was an uproar in Green Valley Town.

A Level-two alchemist was an extremely respected figure. How could he be willing to come to a small town like Green Valley and become a guest elder?

This was not the most shocking thing. What was even more shocking was that the moment this Level-two alchemist arrived, he refined large quantities of medicinal pills, allowing the Warden Family to seize as much market share as possible.

As a result, the Booker Family and some other small families that dabbled in producing medicinal pills faced the danger stagnating sales.

Many families that specialized in making money through medicinal pills faced the risk of bankruptcy.

In a situation where the price was low and the quality was guaranteed, or even better, even a fool would know which medicinal pill to choose.

Because of this, the Warden Clan’s alchemy shop was bustling with people. Even the business of the Violet Royal Auction House was affected.

Many small clans wanted to join forces to protest, but were quickly suppressed by the Warden family.

No one dared to stand out.

They did not know if they would win even if they worked together, and the one who took the lead would definitely die miserably.

In the Booker family’s meeting room, Carlos gathered all the senior members to express their views.

“Warden Family nearly snatched the entire share of medicinal pill sales in Green Valley Town.”

“That’s right. If they keep going like this, they will eventually die from overeating.”

“I don’t know if they’ll be stuffed to death or not but if our sales get any lower, it’ll severely affect the our operations.”

“Why don’t we lower the price?”

“We have already tried that a long time ago. If we reduce the price, the Warden Family will also reduce theirs further. If this continues, we would start making a loss. It’s not worth it.”

Everyone sighed. The Warden family had gone too far this time. They did not give them a way out.

The sales of medicinal pill was originally a huge source of profit in Green Valley Town. All the families shared it together, so it was understandable for the Warden Family to take a slightly larger portion. But to suddenly snatch away all the market demand, they were really too greedy.

After discussing for a long time, they still could not come up with a feasible plan.

If there was really no other way, they could only transport these pills to the nearest city to sell them.

But the cost of transporting them was huge.

Furthermore, it had to be done quickly. After all, these pills had an expiry date. It was the most obvious for low level medicinal pills.

Once past the expiry date, the pills would lose their medicinal strength. At that time, it could only be treated as a waste pill.

As such, loss was something they could not bear.

Carlos asked each of them to share their thoughts, but none of them had any valid ideas.

The Warden Family had an alchemist overseeing the business. There was no way to fight this battle.

Suddenly, someone suggested, “If the Booker family also had an alchemist…”

However, everyone started flaming the suggestion as soon as it was made..

F*ck, this was a totally useless idea. The key was that there was no such person at all!

Moreover, the cost of hiring an alchemist was so high that they could never afford it. They might as well suffer a loss from selling the pills at low prices. At least, there were other businesses that could earn money, and it would not make the Booker Family so depressed.

“Alright, alright. All of you may leave.”

Carlos ended the meaningless discussion.

If only the Booker family really had an alchemist…

…

For the next few days, Jaidon continued to explore the functions of the Devouring System.

He realized that as long as he continued to devour valuable items, there was a certain chance that the system would reward him with special items.

At the same time, Jaidon felt that the Devouring system’s Devouring Points were quite complex.

Currently, devouring points could increase one’s cultivation and also accumulate explosive capabilities.

However, Jaidon had a feeling that there might be more uses for the Devouring Points. Of course, this was purely based on his years of gaming experience from his previous life.

Jaidon asked if the system would update its version but he only obtained a reply with two words.

System: Hehe.

As soon as Jaidon returned, he found a large group of people surrounding the entrance.

He could faintly hear crying noises.

“No!”

Jaidon hurried forward and saw Trevor pouncing on Andrea with a lewd expression.

The corners of his mouth curled into a disgusting smile.

“Hehe. Andrea, why don’t you just give in to me? What future can you have by following that trashy Master of yours? I swear I’ll treat you well.”

“You… you’re dreaming!” Andrea’s face was still wet with tears, and her pitiful appearance made people want to protect her.

“When I become the Master of the Booker Family in the future, you will be the Master’s wife. Isn’t that wonderful?”

Hearing those words, his lackeys burst into loud laughter.

Andrea was forced into a corner, unable to retreat.

Seeing this, Jaidon’s anger soared, and a boundless fury rose in his heart.

‘Trevor, I haven’t even settled the score with you, and you still dare to come!’

“Trevor, people will celebrate your death anniversary this time next year!”

Jaidon sent out a tyrannical punch. Trevor did not even have time to react before he was sent flying.

The subordinates’ laughter came to an abrupt halt as they looked like they had seen a ghost.

How did Mr. Trevor disappear in a gust of wind?

“It’s Jaidon!”

Everyone looked forward. It was Jaidon, who had guarded Andrea behind him!

Trevor rolled to his feet and spat out a mouthful of blood. “Jaidon, how dare you hit me?”

Offending Trevor because of a maidservant was unreasonable in the eyes of many.

But only Jaidon knew the truth.

Back when he was a genius, it was Andrea who had taken care of him. After he had become a cripple, it was Andrea who had stayed by his side and encouraged him.

Andrea had long been an indispensable part of his family.

Whoever touched her would die!

Before Trevor could say anything, Jaidon’s body turned bronze as his muscles tensed.

“Combo Attack, Infinite Combo!”

Trevor was sent flying into the air with a kick at his chin. Jaidon’s body followed closely and landed another attack in the air, giving Trevor a double blow.

All of a sudden, it was as if he had returned to his previous life when he was played games and continuously attacked his enemies with combo attacks.

One move after another, whereas the enemy had no room to counterattack.

“Trash, you will die a horrible death arghhh!”

“I’m going to kill you arghhh!”

“Ahhh!”

“Jaidon, I was wrong. Let me go and I will never fight you again.”

Trevor, who was hit by the combo attack, could not gather any strength and was covered in wounds.

“Jaidon, my lord, let me go. I won’t dare to do it again…”

“…”

However, Jaidon’s eyes were so cold that they could freeze people with a look. His hands did not stop moving.

The people below were dumbfounded and could not help at all.

“This is the final blow. Kneel before me!”

Bang!

Dust flew everywhere as a figure fell from the sky and on his knees in front of Andrea, covered in blood!
