Chapter 2404
"Pleasure, Mister Wolf! What a surprise that someone your age manages to become a Platinum Dragon Guard! How
impressive!" Zach said and studied Leon calmly.
As soon as Zach arrived in the southern region, he received news from Alfred and learned that Hades showed
himself.
Zach hurried to the scene and joined forces with Alfred's group, before collaborating to search for Hades.
Unfortunately, Hades was one step ahead of them and left the southern region.
After two hours of searching, neither Zach nor Alfred could locate Hades, and they had to give up in the end.
Afterward, Alfred brought Zach to the Heavenly Waters Estate to meet with Leon.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtZach did not know why Alfred made such an arrangement, but as a second- level Platinum Dragon Guard, he had
little to no regard for a young man like Leon. Hence, he merely exchanged a few pleasantries with Leon out of
respect for Alfred.
Following a brief conversation, Leon asked worriedly, "Mister Glasby, how'd it go? Did you manage to track the
Southern Boss and Hades?"
Alfred sighed with resignation and frustration. "No. They escaped and were nowhere to be found.”
"I see." Leon's heart sank.
He and Arthur foresaw that Alfred and the other Dragon Guards from the southern region would fail to catch up
with the Southern Boss and Hades, so Leon was not particularly surprised.
"Mister Glasby, according to what we know in the central region, both Hades and the Demon Lord were here!
Though Hades has escaped, the Demon Lord should still be here. I think we need to return to the southern region
branch to try and track the Demon Lord! Let's not waste time here," Zach said in displeasure.
Upon tracking Hades's track alongside Alfred and the others, he concluded that Hades likely returned to the central
region. However, since the Demon Lord was still in the southern region, Zach did not rush back to the central
region and stayed to assist Alfred with the search for the Demon Lord.
Hopefully, they would be able to eliminate the Demon Lord or chase him back to the central region to prevent him
from causing trouble in the southern region.
However, Alfred completely ignored their mission of pursuing the Demon Lord and brought Zach to meet with a
fifth-level Platinum Dragon Guard.
Zach could not help but feel like Alfred's priority was odd.
"Mister Jubert, there's no rush. I brought you here to meet with Leon precisely because of the Demon Lord. You
probably don't know this, but the Demon Lord's dead,” Alfred smiled and said, before proceeding to explain what

happened briefly.
"What?! Are you saying that Mister Wolf here killed the Southern Boss? Really?" Zach was shocked.
The Demon Lord ranked third on the criminal list and long reached the Advanced Almighty State; he was said to be
close to reaching the Peak Almighty State, which was something that Zach knew.
For someone as powerful and cunning as the Demon Lord, even Zach himself would struggle to take him down in a
one-on-one battle.
However, Alfred claimed that the Demon Lord was killed by Leon, a mere fifth-level Platinum Dragon Guard.
It sounded so surreal that he was completely stunned.
He was not the only one and the other Dragon Guards from the central region reacted the same way. They all
gaped at Alfred in disbelief, unable to tell if Alfred was telling the truth.
