“Hurry up!”
“Get over here now!”
Hundreds and hundreds of members of the Norris family rushed over to Nathan and his companion, completely surrounding the two men.
Shortly after that, elders of the family, managers, and the Cavemasters also appeared before Nathan and Colin.
Every one of them was either looking daggers at Nathan or sneering condescendingly at him.
Had it been anybody else in Nathan's place, they would have freaked out.
However, Nathan was entirely unaffected by the glares and sneers from the crowd. To him, those people were nothing but harmless civilians.
“The Patriarch has arrived!” announced Ash before the crowd parted and made way for Raphael.
Soon, a revered man in white emerged from the crowd, with numerous subordinates following closely behind him.
As announced by the butler, it was Raphael Norris, the head of the Norris family.
Besides his subordinates, Raphael also had Bryson stand behind him.
“All hail the Patriarch!” shouted the crowd before bowing respectfully to Raphael.
However, the Patriarch did not respond to the greeting but kept his attention focused on Nathan.
Raphael narrowed his eyes at Nathan because he was curious that the man only brought one servant. “So you’re Nathan?” “So you're Raphael?” After sizing the Patriarch up, Nathan responded to the question with another question.
“How dare you address the Patriarch by his first name!” shouted a scarred man furiously.
“Why wouldn't I dare? That's what a first name's for, right? To be called,” retorted Nathan with a smirk.
Even though Dimitri's attack was imminent, Nathan remained standing as though he was not in danger at all.
Those at the scene were scratching their heads as they tried to figure out what was going on.
Is Nathan so terrified by the power of Dimitri's Electric Punch that he froze like a deer caught in headlights? What a weakling'. He must be an idiot if he thinks he can mess with us! At the thought of that, Bryson and the others could not help but snicker at Nathan.
However, just when Dimitri’s fist was about to reach Nathan's face, Nathan swiftly lifted his left hand to block the incoming attack.
What? Dimitri widened his eyes in surprise and wondered how Nathan managed to stop him so easily.
Instantly, the cheering from the crowd was gone, and in its place were gasps of disbelief.
Even Raphael furrowed his brows when he saw what Nathan did.
Still holding on to Dimitri’s fist, Nathan challenged the man. “My turn. Let's see how long you can last against me instead.”
