Severin had spared Endric's life because he thought he should keep a low profile. After all, they had just arrived at a new place. Otherwise, he would have killed Endric many times over.
It was his kindness that had led to this.
Luckily, he had the power to kill three level nine royal saints from the Walpens. That was not easy.
Nevertheless, Severin was not going to let Endric and Zined go this time. If the root cause of the problem were not annihilated, it would come back to haunt him again.
Zined had not yet grieved over the death of Zimmer and Elliot. As Severin looked at him with a teasing gaze, he said fearfully while his body shivered, "Mis… Mister Severin, please forgive me. I'm willing to destroy my attainment and give you all the resources from the Walpens in exchange for sparing Endric and my life."
Endric kneeled, knocked his forehead to the ground, and slapped his face. He said, shivering, "It's all my fault! I was ignorant and arrogant. I shouldn't have said those lewd comments. Please forgive us. Let us go, and you can take anything you want from the Walpens."
Severin killed the main pillars of the Walpens. Without them, the Walpens were not a threat to Severin anymore. In other words, the Walpens would no longer be a first-tier family.
He thought it would be better to give them to Severin instead of letting the rest of the Walpens keep those things for themselves.
Severin shook his head and looked at the hopeful Zined and Endric. "Idiots. When you're dead, those things would belong to me too."
Once he finished, he used his spiritual energy and pressed down. The air around him agglomerated to form a fake handprint to crush Zined and Endric.
Rourie got up on his feet and stuttered while looking at Severin, who looked well and spirited, "Mis… Mister Severin, don't worry. I will make sure to get you the combat technique for the Gigantic Hand Crusher!"
His eyes sparkled, and he felt confident.
When Zimmer and Elliot brought reinforcement, he thought he and his family were doomed. Since he had made Severin the honorary elder of his family, he knew the Walpens would never let him and his family go if they won the fight.
He had even thought about what he should do when Severin lost the fight and was killed. He would ask his family and every member to run for their life.
Luckily, Severin won the fight, and he did not need to use his backup plan. At that moment, he knew he had made the right choice by choosing Severin to be their family's honorary elder!
