Chapter 2918: Bowing and Apologizing

Appointed by the Hall Master personally?

Taliesin Compton looked at Carson Flores in front of him, only feeling a burning sensation on his face.

Since Carson Flores Sect Master’s position was appointed by the Hall Master personally, it naturally means that Carson’s act of slaying the Demon Race and disrupting their plans is true.

This time, he hit a hard wall.

Being appointed by the Hall Master at least shows that the Hall Master recognizes and values his achievements. If today I use my power to suppress him, even if I win today, he’ll report directly to the Hall Master, and I’ll be in trouble.

Although the Compton Family has a special status due to the Immortal God Stele, it is ultimately under the jurisdiction of the War God Mansion. This means that while the Hall Master can respect the Compton Family, it doesn’t mean the Compton Family can ignore the Hall Master and act recklessly.

If it were a different scenario, Taliesin Compton might have been able to forcefully move to suppress Carson Flores, but now, under the watchful eyes of the public, acting without reason would only push things into a worse situation.

Taliesin Compton took a deep breath, glanced around, and clasped his fist in salute to Carson Flores: "Master Flores, today Compton was abrupt. I only thought of reducing trouble and directly obtaining resources, but didn’t consider causing inconvenience to others. It was thoughtless of me, I apologize!"

Taliesin Compton turned to Housekeeper Roth with a somewhat apologetic smile: "Housekeeper Roth, I’m sorry, this was my mistake. Master Flores is right. As a Compton Family Disciple, I should uphold that honor, not use it to take advantage."

"I won’t be taking the resources today, everything will follow the rules. Let them have their allocations first; I’ll wait for the next batch. Next time I’ll report sooner."

Without waiting for Carson Flores to speak, Taliesin Compton nodded slightly to Carson and the others, then turned straight around and left.

He apologized, holding back his anger, purely for the reputation of the Compton Family, but it didn’t mean he was afraid of Carson Flores.

Making a gesture of apology is enough, but wanting him to genuinely admit wrongdoing is impossible!

Housekeeper Roth’s face was awkward, caught in a difficult position today, feeling awkward among both sides.

Before allowing Taliesin Compton to cut in line, he had checked the lists of these three Sects, confirmed that they were ones without any background that he could completely suppress, but who knew a newly appointed Sect Master would emerge?

Seeing Carson Flores directly confronting him like this before, Housekeeper Roth guessed he likely had a background, now it’s clear, someone appointed by the Hall Master, how could he not have some backing?

Whether the Hall Master truly appreciates him or just follows procedures for meritorious recognition, he’s someone with a noted status under the Hall Master, if reported to the Hall Master, even if I have no issues, I wouldn’t escape a reprimand.

Taliesin Compton walked away, Housekeeper Roth stood there rigidly, with gazes falling upon him, making him feel as if insects were crawling on him, very uncomfortable!

Housekeeper Roth gritted his teeth, turned his head, and waved to the staff eagerly looking at him: "What are you staring at me for, distribute!"

Housekeeper Roth turned back, looked outside at the dense crowd, immediately felt annoyed and irritable, gritted his teeth, and turned to walk directly back inside.

Out of sight, out of mind!

The staff quickly picked up the three resource slips Carson Flores had placed on the table and began instructing others to prepare the resources for everyone.

In the courtyard, Carradine and others had expressions of both excitement and worry. They were happy because they finally received their resources, worried because Carson Flores had offended the Military Supply Office and Taliesin Compton today.

The Star-Sweeping Sect man had a face full of joy, he rubbed his hands, looking excited, obviously never expecting such a twist of fortune to fall upon himself.

Carson Flores called to him and the representative from the final sect in line: "Friend, come and check your resources, make sure nothing is missing."

The man ran quickly to Carson’s side, gratefully saying: "Master Flores, thank you so much today, if it weren’t for you, we..."

Carson Flores replied with a smile: "I am merely fighting for what is originally ours, helping others is helping myself, don’t take it to heart."

The man was visibly moved but glanced at the staff nearby, hesitated, and ultimately just repeated his gratitude: "Thank you, thank you!"

Soon, the resources distributed to the three sects were all packed into Space Rings and handed over to everyone.

Yackey Decker checked them over once and nodded to Carson Flores: "Sect Master, there’s no problem."

"Let’s go!"

Carson Flores took two steps forward, then turned back and smiled slightly at the staff: "Thanks for your hard work, thank you!"

The staff repeatedly said it was only right, each showing a subtle expression on their faces.

This person can firmly criticize Housekeeper Roth, can point at Taliesin Compton and make him queue, can mercilessly mock them, yet is so polite to us ordinary workers.

As Carson Flores and his party just stepped out the door, they saw Beau Compton, Sect Master of Vast Fire Sect, and others standing at the entrance, looking at them with a complex gaze.

Yackey Decker grinned: "Mr. Compton, perhaps you’re here waiting to see us make a fool of ourselves?"

Beau Compton frowned and said: "Yackey, can we talk alone for a moment?"
