Chapter 1479
"All of this was caused by my hunt for the crest. If it weren't for the crest, my father wouldn't have ended up this
way..." Zeke said.
'Even though I crave the power it offers, I can't erase the hatred I feel toward this crest,' he thought.
Then, Zeke continued, "So what if I can summon people from each and every faction to protect my family after I've
gotten the crest? Is anyone truly standing with me? They're merely bowing down to the power of the crest. But
you're different, Nicole. You have Carl. You also have the backing of the organization."
'Prior to this, I've already known that Nicole commands power beyond what I could expect. But now that she has
actually saved me here in Lanningbourg, and after having seen the entire base for myself, I know her people will
definitely protect her!' he thought again.
As of now, Nicole understood Zeke's plans.
'I have to admit, the kid is right. All things considered, the Reby Family Crest hasn't appeared in years, so I do not

he'll just be a sitting duck, waiting as somebody manipulates him,' she thought.
With this thought in mind, Nicole's gaze darkened. "I understand. Since that's the case, I'll give it a shot."
Seeing that Nicole had agree to his request, Zeke sighed in relief.
However, there was a caveat, as he then proceeded to make a request. "I only ask for one thing. I want you to use
the crest to protect the Guzman family and avenge my father!"
'I won't spare anyone who has hurt my father!!' he thought.
Nicole looked at his eyes, which were brimming with vengeance.
Then, she took a deep breath and nodded. "You've given me such a valuable gift. I'll definitely protect you
thoroughly."
'Zeke has given me something so significant. Forthat, I'll definitely protect him. And of course, I'll aid him in his
vengeance!' she thought.
"Thank you... Nicole." Zeke looked at Nicole with gratitude as if he were clutching onto his lifeline.
'If it weren't for Nicole, I'd have been facing all of this by myself right now. Even though it's sort of embarrassing for
me to seek refuge behind a woman, I can't help but come to the realization that Nicole is much stronger than me,'
he thought.
As he was thinking about it, Zeke personally keyed Nicole's name in.
Soon after, a fingerprint reader appeared on the screen.
Zeke nodded at Nicole.
Just as Nicole was about to stretch her hand out, Carl barged in. "Nicole! No!"
While Carl was outside, he heard them saying something about the Reby Family Crest, and after doing some
research about it, he finally learned what it was.
'Even though the Reby Family Crest is an object of power and prestige, it hasn’t appeared for years. Who knows if
Nicole will be in danger once she takes possession of it?!' Carl thought.
Then, he stood between Nicole and Zeke as he said, "You stupid idiot. This thing is an object of great significance.
Countless people have their eyes on it. Are you trying to put a target on Nicole's back for your own selfish
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmreasons?!"
Zeke, who was startled, quickly replied, "That wasn't my intention..."
Tm genuinely impressed by Nicole and everything she has done, and that's why I think she's the only person worthy
of the crest,' Zeke thought.
"Calm down, Carl," Nicole frowned and pulled Carl aside.
'This dude has always been too impulsive,' she thought.
"How am I supposed to calm down? I know you're agreeing to it because you're trying to protect this idiot. You
know far better than anyone else that
this object is dangerous! If it weren't for this thing, you wouldn't have fled to Lanningbourg with people coming after
you!" Carl yelled.
It was only after Carl had said it that Zeke learned that Nicole was hunted because of the crest.
'I thought she would be fine because she has so many individuals who're willing to protect her...' Zeke thought.
"Do you know that Nicole has been forsaking her own safety just to protect you?" Carl said to Zeke. "She has
sustained multiple injuries, and yet, she still operated on your father. Now, she even has to get herself into great
danger because of you. Do you not have any conscience?"
