The War God's Homecoming

Chapter 482 The Time Has Not Yet Come

Around 3 PM, Billy and his team arrived once again in Nigel Hall's hometown.

"Commander!" As they reached the village entrance, Nigel hurriedly came forward to greet them.

"Hmm," Billy nodded. "Where are Arthur and the other?"

On the way here, Michael Hornig had already called Nigel to inquire about what had happened earlier and learned that all two hundred members of Ink Pavilion had been killed.

"They are in their yard." Nigel replied. "About an hour ago, four people arrived from outside. They should be the ones summoned by Mr Fowler and Madam Charleston. They are currently in their yard as well." Billy smiled faintly. "Let's go meet them together."

With those words, he led the group towards Arthur's small courtyard.

"I, Arthur Fowler, pay my respects to Commander Gardner!"

"I, Bessie Charleston, pay my respects to Commander Gardner!"

As soon as Billy pushed open the courtyard gate, he saw Arthur and Bessie standing inside, bowing respectfully to him. Not only did they acknowledge Billy's identity, but they had also restored their original appearances, completely different from before.

Arthur no longer exuded the aura of a wandering martial artist; instead, he had an air of elegance and wisdom. Bessie Charleston, too, had discarded her previous appearance as an old village woman and was now dressed in a refined green robe, with a dignified and otherworldly demeanor. Behind the two of them stood four middle-aged men and women, full of vitality, with sharp auras that indicated they were not ordinary martial artists.

"Not knowing that Commander Gardner graced us with your presence yesterday, I must apologize for any oversight." Said Arthur, adopting a humble posture.

"Never mind, Mr Fowler." Billy replied with a faint smile. He didn't believe that Arthur genuinely didn't recognize him yesterday. That could be inferred from the way Arthur looked at him the moment they met. Even though Arthur and Bessie had been living in this village for over twenty years, Billy was sure that they hadn't completely severed their ties with the outside world. Over these twenty years, they must have been well aware of the major events happening outside.

"Commander Gardner," the other four men and women said as they bowed to Billy.

Billy nodded in response.
