Goodbye, Saintess. Novel

Chapter 143 All it would take for the Amos family to vanish into Astergrad's history was for Sebastian's true identity as the lost heir to be revealed . Baron could only lament that Julius had chosen to test his grandson so harshly . There was one more truth to reckon with - a giant would always be a giant . Whether exposed or not , Sebastian would remain the lost heir whom Baron had to protect at all costs . " No ! I won't let you get hurt ! If you do , everything I've done up to this point will have been for nothing ! " Baron shouted .

Harvey had watched our exchange with mounting impatience and irritation , as though we had forgotten his presence entirely . " Seems like he's eager to get his skull cracked open with a bottle . Why not let him have his fun ? " Then Harvey's tone shifted , cold and measured . " In fact , I've changed my mind . I'm tired of this . Flint , deal with him . Smash a bottle over that brat's head so we can all go home . " " Understood . " Flint Steele , a towering wall of muscle , finally spoke . His voice carried a chilling boom that matched his monstrous build . Baron could not believe his ears .

" What ?! We made a promise about how this should be settled , and this wasn't it ! " It would not take 30 bottles to kill Sebastian if Flint was the one swinging . One strike would be enough . And if Sebastian survived , it could still leave him brain - damaged for life . " No ! I'll fulfill our original bargain ! " Baron cried and ground his teeth as he swung the bottle at his own head . Flint was faster . He struck the bottle from Baron's hand , shattering it and fracturing Baron's wrist with the same motion . Agony shot through Baron's nerves .

He gasped , trembling , sweat beading on his forehead . Still , he planted himself in front of Sebastian and shielded the young man with his own body . " You lying bastard ! " Baron's resolve hardened . Sebastian could not suffer harm , not in any way . If it meant protecting him , even revealing his true identity was no longer off the table . Baron had spent enough time with the young man to understand him . Sebastian was loyal . He would never abandon his friends . Baron knew that even after learning of his own heritage , Sebastian would stand by him through thick and thin .

He could tell about that loyalty when Sebastian defended Jeanine despite the risk of earning another enemy . This giant was sentimental and fiercely steadfast . " Lying ? My patience just ran out , " Harvey sneered and motioned for Flint to attack again . 1/2 I could not even follow Flint's movement . One moment Baron stood tall , and the next he was hurled through the air , crashing onto the floor with a thunderous bang . That was when I finally grasped the gulf between an ordinary man's punch and the full arsenal of a trained fighter .

I had thought my peak physical condition , backed by a little martial arts knowledge , would be enough in most situations . Not this one . I doubted I could survive even a single blow from Flint . Baron's scream tore through the room . His body looked as if every bone had been ground to dust . Yet he forced himself back up and roared , " You will not touch him , Harvey ! If you do , it will be a grave mistake - and the entire city will pay the price ! " Harvey remained unfazed . " I'm curious . You make it sound as though this young man is no ordinary boy . Very well .

Let's see which important figure he's supposed to be . " Flint hefted a bottle and leveled it at me .
