Chapter 2394
"Don't bother trying to talk me out of it! I was so foolish with Yonas' death and I almost had the biggest mistake of my life! Angus,
on the other hand, kept a leveled head and saw the truth right away! With his wisdom, he surely qualifies as the leader!" Arthur
stated.
"But," Angus muttered hesitantly. He wanted to talk Arthur out of it but was interrupted before he could say anything.
"That's enough! Angus, Mister Wolf has taken down the Southern Boss and the Separs for us! This is the best time for you to
take over!" Arthur said.
Back when the Spears were still in power, they rivaled the Thompsons and given the Southern Boss's ambitious nature, Angus
would be fit to lead the Thompsons.
However, the Spears were taken apart and the Southern Boss was wanted by the Dragon Corps; without the Spears as a threat,
Arthur felt that this was the perfect opportunity to name Angus the leader.
"That may be true, but my power level is far too low and I'm not all that talented either. I'm afraid I'm not qualified for it," Angus
said worriedly.
Though his power level reached the Almighty State, he only managed to survive because of the Sun Pill Leon gave him.
In truth, he was hardly talented compared to the Southern Boss and if he took over as leader of the family too soon, he would not
be able to keep other families in the southern region at bay.
"It's fine! Don't worry. I'm just handing everything over to you so I can act as backup! If you face any difficulties and the family
needs anything, I'll always be around. Once I rid myself of all the mundane tasks as the leader, I can focus on training and get to
the Peak Almighty State as soon as possible. The next time I see the Southern Boss, I'm taking him out for good!" Arthur said,
determined to hand his position over to Angus.
"Um, alright, then!" Seeing that Arthur made up his mind, Angus decided to accept it.
"Alright, it's settled. Does anyone object to it?" Arthur scanned the crowd.
"No!" Since it was decided, the others shook their head in compliance.
August, the direct descendent of the second bloodline, was the only one with the right to compete with Angus as the next leader.
However, he preferred to pursue arts and never considered competing.
With his son dead, he was left with no successor and could not possibly be named as the leader.
Thankfully, he had a younger daughter and could still live the rest of his life with hope instead of despair despite his older son's
death.
