If It's Not Me

Chapter 21 Daniel Hardon is Hades

Aldo and Laskarina, who were standing not far away, could clearly hear their conversation as William didn't deliberately lower his voice. Aldo was so surprised that his jaw dropped and his cloudy eyes flickered. Meanwhile, Laksarina's eyes widened as she looked shocked. Hades?! The only person on Earth that could be regarded as Lord Hades was the one who hailed from Thanatos. Aldo's expression became solemn right after. "It turns out that Hades really is recuperating at Goldshore. I didn't expect that we could locate him so easily." He had no doubts about it since the richest man from Southland went all the way here to meet him personally, and it was out of Aldo's expectation that Hades stayed just a few doors down. Both him and Laskarina stared at the manor's gate intently, curious to find out what the legendary Hades looked like. Soon, the gates opened as Daniel stepped out, and he frowned upon seeing the men standing in front. "Mr. Hardon!" Edgar's eyes lit up in awe and bowed to Daniel as he greeted him. "Lord Hades," William greeted while bowing down. At the same time, Aldo and Laskarina were stunned by the scene in front of them. "Daniel is actually Hades?!" She covered her mouth as she couldn't believe what she just saw. Meanwhile, his wrinkly face twitched, and his body trembled uncontrollably from being stupefied. They never expected that Daniel was the legendary Hades, who was also the Tenth General of Freyna. After all, he was so young and looked like he was only in his late twenties. To be a general, one had to possess capabilities which were above a Grandmaster's. Aldo gasped at the thought of it. Sure enough, the most powerful genius in Freyna in a hundred years was deserving of the title. Daniel had noticed Aldo and Laskarina standing not far from him, but he wasn't bothered about it. Instead, he was looking intently at Edgar. "Did that old man ask you to come here?" Daniel asked. William was shocked upon hearing Daniel's words. He was probably the only person who would address the big shot in such a way. "Mr. Graham is aware that you are back in Goldshore and purposely asked me to visit you." The old butler took a step forward and spoke to Daniel calmly.After hearing that, Daniel frowned as he realized that yesterday's incident regarding the Four Waves Chamber of Commerce must have made his name known all over Goldshore. The only thing was that he was seen as a notorious rapist who was released from prison in the eyes of strangers. However, for some others, he was known as Hades, the legendary God of War. It seemed like news about him being in Goldshore had been spread throughout Freyna. "Why did he ask you to come look for me?" Daniel asked impassively. "Mr. Graham knows about your grudge with the local chamber of commerce and purposely asked me to bring William over to assist you," Edgar replied respectfully. Hearing that, William nodded in reply. "To assist me? With what?" Daniel asked. After Edgar shot a look at William, William immediately understood and replied, "I have taken over the Goldshore's Sky Project, and I'm in charge of recruiting new partners for it." Daniel immediately made sense of the situation after listening to William's explanation. Since Ingrid had lost the chance to tender for the Sky Project, she wouldn't just give up on it and would find a way to make a comeback.
