Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams)

Chapter 2758 Love

Sole Wolf's impressive physical prowess left a great impression on everyone. The crowd even subconsciously assumed he was stronger than Zeke.

They wondered if Sole Wolf's body was actually a machine.

He waved his hand at everyone. "That's enough, all of you. Stop watching. Hurry up and collect these wild animals. We can feast on barbecued meat tonight and enjoy ourselves to our hearts' content.

A few moments of silence ensued before the crowd erupted with cheers. "Hooray!"

"Long live Commander Williams!"

"Long live Master Sole Wolf!"

"Long live Master Killer Wolf!"

"Long live Master Ares!"

In the past, those people couldn't even have a full meal. However, not only did they manage to solve the shortage of food supply now, but they could also eat as much as they desired, consume barbecued meat, and improve their lifestyle.

It was as if they were leading a luxurious and carefree life.

After ascertaining the outside world was safe, the citizens surged outward to gather the beasts' carcasses. To be more precise, those were exotic delicacies to them.

Sole Wolf snapped his fingers. "Gather around so we can report to Zeke."

Killer Wolf and the others walked up to Sole Wolf while complaining incessantly.

"D*mn it. There are too few of those beasts. My kill count is too low. I feel like we ran out of enemies before I could even get serious."

"I only killed ten of them. My muscles aren't even loosened up."

"I'm slightly better than you. I killed twenty beasts."

"Ah, the one who had the most fun is undoubtedly Sole Wolf. You slaughtered at least thirty wild animals, I reckon?"

"D*mn it. Why are you all jealous of me? You'll accumulate a higher kill count than me when I assign you to guard the city's main entrance next time."

The few men were absorbed in their conversation, utterly oblivious to the few teenage girls gazing at them in admiration and adoration.

The girls whispered and chattered among themselves, seemingly discussing a matter.

In the end, one of the girls braced herself and approached Sole Wolf after being persuaded by her friends. She stuffed her handkerchief into his hand before hurrying away shyly.

Sole Wolf was baffled. He didn't understand why the girl gave him her handkerchief. Nevertheless, he used it to wipe the sweat on his forehead.

Ares immediately stopped him. "Hey, can you be more sensitive?"

Sole Wolf retorted, "Sensitive? I'm not sensitive. I killed those beasts without taking a hit."

Ares was rendered speechless. "Seriously, I can't stand your ignorance. I'm asking you to be more tactful instead of saying you're easily injured. Do you know why the girl gave you her handkerchief?"

Sole Wolf answered, "I suppose it's for me to wipe my sweat."

"Nonsense. She's interested in you, so she gifted you her handkerchief. That is their tradition here. You can keep the handkerchief if you intend to accept her affection. Otherwise, you should discard it. In my opinion, you're not getting any younger, so you should start giving your marriage some thought. As dense as you are, you should consider yourself lucky to find a girl who likes you."

Killer Wolf and the others cheered along, "Be together! Be together!"

Sole Wolf blushed. I'm a strapping grown man. When have I ever bothered myself with love-related matters? To us, love is disgraceful and taboo...

He waved his hand and threw the handkerchief away. "A distinguished man should harbor grand ambitions and spend his days conquering battlefields. How can I allow a romantic relationship with a woman to impede my progress in life? I don't need this handkerchief. Let's go. We need to return swiftly to make our report."

Killer Wolf and the others attempted to change Sole Wolf's mind to pick up the handkerchief, but the latter was too stubborn and willful to listen to them.

Ares sincerely advised Sole Wolf to think that matter through, as the latter might stay single for the rest of his life if he missed that golden opportunity.

Still, Sole Wolf remained unfazed.

Left without a choice, everyone stopped persuading Sole Wolf since returning to report to the Great Marshal took precedence.

Sole Wolf pretended to trail behind the group inadvertently. When others were not paying attention to him, he reached out behind him and unleashed a blast of energy to retrieve the handkerchief he tossed out I think I should keep this handkerchief. I-It'll be bad if I stay single forever. I'm a capable person with excellent genes, so I should provide an heir to my family. Otherwise, I'll be wronging Eurasia and disappointing the Great Marshal for putting so much effort into nurturing me.
