Chapter 290 Showdown
"General, I welcome you to our shop with sincere emotions. If you need anything, just let me know and your loyal servant will do our best to fulfill it!" The tavern owner was trembling as he held the wine jug. Levi seemed to hear what he said, but also seemed not to hear it clearly. His attention was only on the wine in the glass. Whether it was full or not, this was the key to the problem at the moment!
Levi drank glass after glass of fine wine, and it seemed that he had developed the ability to drink a thousand cups without getting drunk. As long as the tavern owner could provide him with a steady supply, he could keep drinking.
Luga slowly approached Levi. His steps were so light that he did not attract the attention of anyone present. He hid his hands in the cloak beneath him. No one knew what was inside, only Luga himself.
Levi was still drinking heavily, and the boss poured wine, not daring to say a word the whole time. Perhaps he had already finished what he wanted to say, or perhaps he simply didn't dare to speak. When the boss filled a glass again, Levi raised the glass with trembling hands.
“Bang!”
Levi's entire body seemed to be frozen in an instant, and he stood there like a statue.
"Oh, my God!" the tavern owner exclaimed, and he was so scared that he dropped the wine jug on the ground, making a crisp "clink" sound. In an instant, it attracted the attention of everyone present, and they stopped talking and looked at the place where the sound came from.
The wine was held in one hand and suspended in the air. The slight shaking made the calm surface of the wine tremble and ripple. A shining sword was placed on Levi's shoulder, and the sharp blade was less than a centimeter away from his neck. It could be said that as long as he had the slightest thought of making a rash move, the blade would mercilessly cut his neck.
"You are finally here." Levi said without turning his head. Then, he picked up the wine glass as if nothing had happened, drank the wine in the glass, and slammed the glass heavily on the table. Then he said, "I knew there would be such a day. Who knew you would be late for three years? Oh, you are such a late guy. But at this moment, I really want time not to pass so quickly, or you never show up. Oh my god, how great it would be!" As he spoke, Levi began to sigh.
"I'm afraid I always disappoint you, don't I? Captain Livi, or rather, Commander of the Guard, Livi!" Luca stood behind him with a sword in hand. He had been waiting for this day for three years. Finally, he finally found this coward who was hiding. "I know you have been avoiding me, from Ravenna to Rome. You are such a coward. I have been thinking about confronting you all the time. Finally, I found you. Tell me, where is Anais?"
"Ha, hahahaha..." Levi laughed out loud after hearing what Luca said. "Why should I tell you? Do you still think you and she are a perfect match? Adam and Eve blessed by God?"
As soon as Levi finished speaking, the blade in Luca's hand shifted a little to the side, so that the blade sank into Levi's skin. As expected of a warrior who crawled out of the pile of dead bodies, he could remain calm in the face of this threat that was so close.
"First, sir, please, please stay calm!" The scene frightened the tavern owner. He quickly stretched out his hand and waved it towards Luca, trying to dissuade him: "Sir, if you have any grievances with General Levi, please talk to him calmly. After all, General Levi is in a prominent position. Such rash behavior will only bring trouble to yourself!"
"Shut up!" Levi yelled at the tavern owner, scaring the tavern owner so much that he trembled violently on the spot. His terrified face must have been quite frightened.
"Do you know who he is?" Levi sneered and asked the tavern owner. The owner looked at Luca with fear in his eyes, thinking about how to apologize because of what he said just now. The tavern owner shook his head slightly, remained silent, and waited for Levi quietly.
"The spokesperson of the Eastern Empire, the only adopted son of Augustus Theodosius II! The hero who recaptured Greater Sicily and forced the Vandals to cede land and beg for mercy! Flavius Luca!"
Listening to Levi's unhurried introduction, the tavern owner was so scared that he fell to the ground. It seemed that Luca's reputation was well-known here. Not only was there a commander of the Guards sitting in front of him, but the one who was stirring up trouble behind him was actually the Roman hero who was in the limelight recently. This was simply a "war of the gods". He was just an ordinary mortal and had no right to speak at all! "In three years, you are no longer the same as before. From a poor boy with nothing to a powerful official in the Eastern Empire, it's not simple, not simple!" Levi smiled and shook his head. His sparse drunken eyes suddenly became sharp. He said fiercely: "The thing I regret most is that I didn't kill you with my own hands outside Ludinan City!"
"not good!"
Hearing Levi's words, Luga secretly cried out that something was wrong, but it was too late. Levi suddenly dodged to the side and avoided Luga's sword. When Luga came to his senses, Levi had already turned around and pounced in front of Luga. He clenched his right hand and punched hard.
"Bang!"
Luka subconsciously jumped back, and the fist hit him right in the chest, making a dull sound. Luka took two steps back, but he didn't feel much pain. However, Levi felt uncomfortable. He kept shaking his right hand, and the skin on his fist was broken and bleeding. This was all because he punched Luka's armor, which scratched the overlapping scales on the armor.
"It seems you are well prepared!"
Looking at the wound on his hand and the blood slowly oozing out, Levi not only did not feel any pain, but he even laughed. Looking at Luka, he slowly said: "Solid armor and sharp iron sword, it seems that you came here on purpose, but I don't know if you came here just to pick up Anai?"
"You're right!" Luka said, stretching out his left hand to slowly untie his cloak, and the cloak slipped off Luka's shoulders, revealing a full set of armor in front of Levi. Luka stared at Levi and said, "I came here this time, of course, to take Anai with me and then kill you. As long as you are a scourge, Anai will never be happy for a day!"

"Can't be happy? Ha, hahaha..." Levi howled to the sky, his voice sounding extremely desolate. "I guess you can't come alone, after all, you are the supreme commander of thirty field regiments! Then, let all your lackeys come! Let me see what you, the adopted son of Augustus of the Eastern Empire, are capable of?"
Facing Levi's hoarse voice, Luca didn't say much. He clenched the iron sword in his hand, rushed forward, and rushed forward with the sword raised!
