GOD OF WAR: PINNACLE - Season 15 Episode 97

“No, that’s not what-”

Western Monk tried to tell the truth again, but Heracles tugged on his arm meaningfully.

Then, he steeled himself to fortify the lie. “Yes, that’s right! Together with the Suicide Squad, we finally

managed to slay the Northern Demon.”

Eastern Beast spat out a mouthful of blood and lamented, “But thousands of our brothers-in-arms

perished along with him. They were all good men.”

“Yes. They were indeed. At least half the credit must go to them.”

Southern Warrior feigned grief.

Ahem, Ahem…

Heracles kept coughing out blood.

“Finally, everything is over. The Northern Demon is dead!”

Western Monk swallowed back his words, forcing himself not to utter a single word.

Just like that, the Four Basilisks took all the credit for slaying the Northern Demon.

The army had arrived just in time to see the sky crack and the ground splitting open.

Also considering all the severe wounds covering the Four Basilisks and the total annihilation of the

Suicide Squad, no one suspected a thing.

“Wait, I have a question. Wasn’t the Fusion Attack useless against the Northern Demon? So how did

you kill him?” queried Azure Dragon.

“Are you doubting us? Who said it was useless? Our masters have done a lot of research for decades

to create the Fusion Attack. How could it be useless?”

“We fought almost to our last breaths and you’re still doubting us? If we weren’t the ones who killed the

Northern Demon, then who killed him? You guys?” yelled Eastern Beast.

“Well…” Azure Dragon was rendered speechless.

Indeed, other than the Four Basilisks, no one else present was capable of slaying the Northern Demon.

Winsor shot a glare at Azure Dragon. “Isn’t it obvious enough for you? They were the ones who slayed

the Northern Demon!”

Then, he turned to the Four Basilisks and bowed deeply. “The four of you are the greatest heroes of

Erudia! I am honored to be in your presence.”

“All hail the heroes of Erudia!”

“All hail the heroes of Erudia!”

The crowd chanted in unison.

Everyone gazed at the Four Basilisks with awe shining in their eyes.

Eastern Beast, Southern Warrior and Heracles basked in the feeling of being worshipped by

thousands.

Becoming the saviors of Erudia was what they wanted, after all.

The three of them proudly raised their chins and accepted all the praises.

All except for Western Monk, who lowered his head in shame.

Taking credit for someone else’s accomplishment was something he couldn’t bring himself to do.

But he did not have any other choice.

“I’ll immediately relay this news to the Dragonites, so that they can welcome the heroes of Erudia back

with the highest honor!” Winsor announced.

He and the others were brimming with excitement.

After all, the Northern Demon had been eliminated.

This was definitely something worth celebrating.

The eyes of Eastern Beast and his other two comrades gleamed with anticipation.

From then on, everything would be smooth-sailing for them.

Perhaps they could even become high-ranking officials somewhere along the way.

For example, being knighted!

“Clean up the battlefield. Move it, move it!”

After Winsor and Minka left to deal with their respective matters, Western Monk quickly pulled the other

three aside.

“This isn’t right.”

Regardless of how this would benefit them, he did not agree with it.

“Then what should we do? Tell them the truth?” Eastern Beast retorted.

“Should we tell them that we were afraid of the Northern Demon and fled from the battle? That we even

betrayed the Suicide Squad, and let them sacrifice their lives to buy us more time?”

These words rendered Western Monk speechless.

If they told the truth, their masters probably would never forgive them.

Their reputation in Erudia would also be tarnished.

“Besides, that mysterious fighter has already died along with the Northern Demon. No one would know

we’re lying! This is our only choice!”

“Fine. I guess there’s nothing we can do.”

Western Monk had no choice but to give in.
