Chapter 163 - 127: Cousin Ruby Dressrosa

The Life Source Power within his body surged, and only after a moment was the icy breath dispelled.

At this moment, Ruby couldn’t help but feel a little shaken inside.

He was a genuine Earth Knight, quite different from someone like Deguli who used secret medicine to break through. His Life Source Power and physique were much stronger, yet he was still affected by Thor’s Life Source Power. Thor’s Life Source Power must be incredibly powerful.

However, amidst his shock.

Deguli, who had fallen, climbed up, his face looking exceptionally unpleasant.

"Ruby, what are you doing?"

"Do you intend to shield the descendants of your Dressrosa Family?"

As he spoke, Deguli’s eyes carried a trace of gloom.

"The matter remains uncertain; if I find out you wish to frame the Dressrosa Family, just wait for what’s coming to you."

Ruby’s eyes carried a hint of ferocity as his gaze involuntarily turned toward Deguli.

Facing Ruby’s gaze, Deguli couldn’t help but shudder.

Though both were Knight Commanders of the Pat Knight Order, Ruby’s status was no higher than his, especially since he was a descendant of the Pat Family, which theoretically placed him higher.

But that was merely theoretical. Deguli knew very well that he, a knight who ascended using secret medicine, couldn’t compare with Ruby, a genius who broke through to Earth Knight before fifty.

Despite being both Knight Commanders, the other’s status was much higher, even if not a descendant of the Pat Family.

Watching their conversation, Thor was somewhat curious and started observing the middle-aged man.

He didn’t expect to see a member of the Dressrosa Family here.

Moreover, not just any member, but also an Earth Knight.

When did Earth Knights become so abundant?

Encountering two at once.

Luckily.

Amidst his confusion, Morris and Anna had already walked up.

"Master, are you alright?"

Anna spoke cautiously as she cast a healing magic spell on Thor.

Thor’s originally unsettled wounds quickly healed.

Meanwhile, Morris spoke softly.

"This is Brother Ruby, our cousin, now a Knight Commander of the Pat Knight Order."

The words were not loud, but enough for Thor to understand the situation.

This made him even more surprised.

Goodness, this man is actually his cousin.

"Are you alright, need treatment, Thor?"

After warning Deguli, Ruby showed concern as he looked at Thor.

"I’m fine, Brother Ruby!"

"He won’t hurt me!"

Thor smiled and shook his head.

Yet these words made Deguli’s face darker.

But apparently, neither Ruby nor Thor cared.

"Good, worthy of being a descendant of the Dressrosa Family, Uncle will be very happy to hear this."

Ruby laughed heartily and nodded.

Thor smiled sheepishly, scratching his head.

"Alright, why don’t you follow me to the municipal center, this isn’t a big deal, as long as it’s confirmed that Amor acted first, you’ll only need to pay some gold coins."

"Next time, try not to start fights in the city; some nobility aren’t easy to deal with."

After laughing, Ruby seriously advised.

"Got it, Brother Ruby!"

"But this time there shouldn’t be an issue, that one hasn’t become nobility, right?"

Thor nodded seriously and seemed to recall something, pointing at Amor not far away.

"Him, how could he be nobility, just a useless person inserted by the Emerson Family."

Watching Thor’s gesture, Ruby sneered disdainfully.

He indeed had the qualifications to sneer.

Since his father’s generation, they served Marquis Pat loyally; his talented nature was astounding, becoming an Earth Knight before fifty. He might not reach Sky Knight, but Earth Knight Peak was inevitable.

Even within the Pat Family, there weren’t many at the Earth Knight Peak.

Marquis Pat valued him greatly, even promising him an opportunity to gain noble status in the Kingdom War.

In contrast, though Amor was a Great Knight, he achieved it using massive amounts of Life Potion, with no future prospects of advancing to Earth Knight.

Not to mention, he’s from Emerson Family; even if he was from Pat Family, Ruby paid little attention.

Listening to his words.

Amor’s face turned worse, wanting to speak but not daring to.

Of course, Thor didn’t care about these.

Upon hearing Ruby, a smile appeared on his face.

"Then it’s fine~!"

"A few months ago, I became a Baron. According to Kingdom law, it’s not me who needs to pay compensation, but rather he needs to compensate. Rashly driving a Pet Beast to attack a Royal Noble is a crime; even if I killed him on the spot, it wouldn’t matter."

With a calm smile, his demeanor appeared extremely composed.

As previously stated, Royal Noble and non-noble are entirely different.

In such situations, even if he killed him, it would just mean paying some gold coins.

Not to mention merely injuring him.

No way he would pay gold coins; rather, the other party should pay him.

"You became a Baron?"

Hearing Thor, Ruby’s eyes widened instantly, a voice of joy burst out.
