Chapter 3181
Nathan had always been easygoing, but that did not mean he was a pushover.
Not even the President could oppose Nathan if the man's mind was made up, much less a Jetroinian God of War.
Eiken was deeply offended by Nathan's words.
Even though he wanted nothing more than to please Wolfric, he still felt insulted when Nathan directly called him Wolfric's lapdog.
"Don't get too cocky, Nathan!" warned Eiken angrily, jumping to his feet and pointing his finger at Nathan. "We have Gods of War from hundreds of countries and Wolfric, the commander-in-chief, here. You better watch yourself."
"If you're aware this is the headquarters, you should also know that I'm the deputy commander, your superior. Who are you to spew nonsense in front of me like a mad dog?" voiced Nathan coldly.
As soon as Eiken heard those words, his face immediately turned as grim as death.
Furious, Eiken was about to curse at Nathan when the man added, "Besides, this is between Wolfric and me. You have no right to speak up."
With that, Nathan ignored Eiken and shifted his attention to Wolfric before stating indifferently, "Ariarica is a superpower, and you're a world-renowned figure, Mr. Welz. You're not going back on your word and shamelessly trying to cheat your way out, are you?" With Eugene IV, Leopold, and the others looking at him, Wolfric had no choice but to reply, "As Eiken said, I only bet against you because I wanted to provoke you "
Before Wolfric could finish his sentence, Nathan interrupted with a chuckle, "Do you actually believe that yourself, Mr. Welz? Even a fool could tell that you were giving me a hard time by asking me to kill Raytor, the Alpha Wolf, without other Gods of War's help, yet you're shameless enough to claim that you were simply trying to provoke me now? Even you don't buy such nonsense, do you?"
Wolfric intended to defend himself to the very end, but before he could do so, Nathan sneered, "Who do you think is a fool among us, Wolfric? You came up with an excuse that even you don't buy just to avoid honoring our bet. Tell me. Are you taking me for a fool, or are you trying to insult everyone's intelligence here?"
After listening to Nathan, everybody at the scene began to give Wolfric strange looks, which immediately caused Wolfric great discomfort.
As Nathan said, no one there was an idiot, so Wolfric would be insulting everybody if he insisted on twisting the truth.
In the face of all the strange looks he was given, Wolfric could no longer argue with Nathan, so he gritted his teeth and played the victim instead.
"Since you insist that I honor our bet, Nathan, you can have my position as the commander-in-chief," stated Wolfric sternly.
As soon as Eiken heard that, he
immediately spoke up. "I object! I insist on the need to consider the big picture. Mr. Welz is the most suitable person to be the
xel
you
commander-in-chief. Nathan, if force him to step down, then you're short-sighted and petty."
Immediately after that, Tyrell, the Xyperian God of War, spoke up as well. "That's right. I agree with Eiken. Mr. Welzas indeed the best person to be the commander-in-chief. If he steps down, we, the Xyperians, will leave the alliance, and you'll have to fight the vampires by yourselves!"
"If Mr. Welz steps down as the commander-in-chief, we, the Jetroinians, will be leaving too," added Eiken instantly afterward.
"Pontotium will leave too..."
"Bucroania will leave too..."
Suddenly, many Gods of War stepped up to support Wolfric by threatening to leave the alliance, encouraging Wolfric to gaze at Nathan with his lips breaking into a smirk.
Let's see how Nathan deals with
this. Will he be forced to consider
the big picture and stop vying for the position of commander-in-chief, or will he be determined to go his own way and ruin the Hundred Nations Gods of War Alliance? Eurasia is a country of etiquette, and Nathan is also famous for his elegance and prudence. Presumably, he'll prioritize the big picture in the end, so he'll have no choice but to continue to let me remain as the
commander-in-chief! With that
thought in mind, Wolfric began to
feel even smugger.
When the people at the scene witnessed how Wolfric encouraged his allies to threaten to leave the alliance, many could not help but be disgusted by it.
After all, that was not the first time Wolfric did something like that.
Back then, Nathan gave in to Wolfric for the sake of the greater good but did not expect the man to repeat the same trick.
"I agree with Pope Eugene; I think Nathan should be the commander-in-chief," voiced Leopold coldly, being the first to speak up for Nathan. "You're the God of War of Ariarica, Wolfric. If you can't even keep your word, nobody will respect you."
