Rowena accepted Fillick’s “compensation” after Kayson gave her permission. After that, Finnick insisted on buying them a meal. They tried to reject him but couldn’t. In the end, Kayson had no other choice but to agree and go with him.Bo looked at Finnick and was amazed by the fact Finnick could warm up to Kayson in such a short period.Both of them were in the same situation. The people around them offended Kayson, but why did he react slower than everyone else?Judging from how fast Finnick reacted to the situation, he should have been a more successful businessman than him. “Mr. Zachry, I have something else to settle. Can you please do me a favor and escort Mr. Yarde and his friend to the Sirens Hotel? Remember to pick the best private room!” “Sure. We’ll get going first,” replied Bo.After Kayson and the others left, the smile left Finnick’s lips as his face turned grim.He looked at Arthur and said coldly, “Arthur, hand over your shares. We can’t keep you here anymore.
Jonah bowed slightly and said, “Let me lead you to the private room, Mr. Yarde.”Kayson nodded. They all came to Room Primera, the best private room of the Sirens Hotel, under Jonah’s lead. The three of them took their seats. Bo was talkative. He quickly sparked up a conversation and mainly talked about his management experience.Kayson was interested as well since he was going to start a new company.As for Rowena, she listened to him with rapt attention. Regardless of whether it would be useful to her or not, she memorized everything and decided to go through them again when she returned home later.While they were talking, Finnick arrived.He briefly told them about what had happened to the Crests. Kayson did not really care about them, so he asked Rowena for her opinion.Rowena fell into deep thought. She was never an unreasonable person. As long as Steven stopped pestering her, she would forgive them.“Mr. Sullivan, what about Felicia?”She had mixed feelings about the p
Apparently, this middle-aged man was coming for Finnick.There seemed to be bad blood between them, and Finnick looked like he was having a hard time dealing with him.After all, Finnick was considered an influential figure in Northspring, and he wouldn’t behave like this even if he ran into some local dignitaries.Since he called the man before them Mr. Hamilton, Kayson couldn't think of any families other than the Hamiltons, the strongest family in Northspring, that could make Finnick behave this way.“Mr. Hamilton, I’m entertaining important guests of mine tonight. Can you do me a favor and let me have this private room? I’ll go to your house and apologize to you afterward!” When Mr. Hamilton heard what he said, he glanced at the group of people behind Finnick and said amusingly, “If it isn’t Mr. Zachry from the Zachry Group.”Bo’s face turned stern. He knew that Finnick had offended a powerful figure in Northspring, but he did not expect that person to be someone from the Ha
Mr. Hamilton scoffed coldly. “Hah, what a fool!”Another energy fighter at the peak level dashed forward in the next second.At present, one of them was fighting Mr. Eastwood, while the other darted straight toward Kayson.Kayson lifted his hand and cast the Novem Lightning Zero Impact into the man’s arm.“Argh!” The fighter let out a pained scream as his arm exploded into a plume of blood mist.Without giving him a chance to catch his breath, Kayson threw a heavy punch at his chest, sending him flying backward and slamming hard into the wall.For a moment, everyone in the private room fell silent.The fighter that was fighting Mr. Eastwood was so scared that all colors were washed from his face. He hastily took a step back and retreated to the door.Mr. Hamilton’s pupils constricted as he couldn’t believe everything that had just happened before his eyes.The fighters he had brought with him were energy fighters at the peak level, but Kayson was able to take one of them dow
Thanks to Finnick and Bo, Kayson had a better understanding of how powerful the Hamiltons were.It was true that the Hamiltons did not fail its name as the strongest family in Northspring. They had a long history in Northspring and had their roots stretched into every crook and nook of the city.Fernando was known as the strongest fighter in Northspring. He was a master-level fighter, yet he did not dare to behave outrageously before the Hamiltons.Most of the time, he would treat the Hamiltons with respect.The distribution of forces in Northspring was very different from other cities. Apparently, one large family was dominating the other small families, and the difference in strength between them was huge.Although it was a fact that the Hamiltons were strong, Kayson was not scared of them.He looked at Finnick and asked, “So, do you want to tell us the story between you and the Hamiltons, Mr. Sullivan?”Since the Hamiltons were so powerful, there was no way a local like Finni
Kayson said faintly, “Let’s eat. The dishes are getting cold.”At the Hamilton manor…“What? Who the hell dares to hurt my brother!?” Theodore flew into a rage when he received the call. He was the third brother amongst the Hamiltons.“The Sirens Hotel?” Theodore’s gaze was cold, and his voice was filled with rage. “I see! The Hamiltons have just hired a new fighter. He arrived today, so I sent Irvin to arrange dinner for him.”Keep an eye on the Sirens Hotel. I’m going to shred those who dare to harm my brother into pieces tonight!”After that, he hung up the call and had the driver head toward the highway exit.A luxury Mercedes sedan came off the highway.Theodore hurriedly went forward and greeted the man respectfully, “Mr. Hodge, thank you for coming all the way here from Skyspring.”Benedict smiled and nodded. “Don’t mention it, Mr. Theodore.” Offering Benedict a smile, Theodore said, “Mr. Hodge, Let's go to the hotel for dinner, but before that, there's one thing I nee
Kayson said flatly, “It’s really you. I thought my eyes were failing me again.”The fighter standing before him was one of the three master-level fighters that Kayson had encountered at the Wolfenden mansion in Skyspring back then.When the three of them attacked him, Kayson killed the fighter who used the Thunderpalm technique in one hit. When the remaining two fighters saw how powerful he was, they ran away. Benedict was one of the two that had run away that time.“Mr. Hodge, what are you doing!?”Theodore and his men looked at Benedict in disbelief.Benedict ignored him. He just wanted to kill him right now.If he had known that Kayson was here, he would not have come here at all, no matter what.When the scene of Kayson taking down the fighter in one hit surfaced in his head, Benedict’s legs went weak. He just wanted to dig a hole and run away now.Ever since he ran away from the Wolfenden mansion in Skyspring, he had decided not to set his foot into either Skyspring or Clo
The sight of Benedict pouring wine for Kayson made Bo and Finnick’s eyes twitch, and they looked thrilled beyond words.After drinking for a bit, Kayson asked Benedict, “Why are you here in Northspring?”Benedict answered rather embarrassedly, “I’m here for a living… The Hamiltons are recruiting a new fighter guard, so I came.”“How much is it per month?” Kayson asked.Benedict was taken aback before he answered, “Uh, the market price is $150,000 a month…”Kayson thought about it and told him, “Why don’t you work for me? I’ll pay you $160,000 a month.”He pointed at Rowena and said, “This is the current deputy general manager of the Sirens Hotel. When she’s familiar with her job, she’ll be promoted to the general manager of the hotel.“You’ll protect her here and also be in charge of the hotel security.”Benedict responded fervently, “I’d love to! It’d be an honor to work for you!“As for the salary, just pay me like an ordinary person. I don’t need $150,000 a month. It’s too
This enraged Abel, so he directly destroyed the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce. The central part of the Rivspring Chamber of Commerce had already turned into ruins. The members who did not get to flee in time were buried underneath the rubble, their state of life unclear.Abel did not care one bit about this.Seth and others were nowhere to be seen, so he had asked Taylor to run a search for them, swiftly coming to the Tinsleys. Then, he found out that Kayson had taken them to Admiralporium for refuge.Abel’s expression was cool and impassive when he came to Admiralporium again.Felicity, Shien, Campian, and the others who had returned appeared in unison to stop them.Taylor scoffed. “Has Admiralporium stooped to become Kayson Yarde’s lackey? How cheap and despicable. I’ll report it honestly when I go back!”Felicity looked frosty as she ignored Taylor and behaved professionally.“If you’re here as guests, Admiralporium welcomes you. But if you’re here for trouble, you’re prohibi
Kayson did not have the courage to perform mind expansion in Admiralporium because it was not an ordinary place. On the other hand, Chase had never taken him to the weapon warehouse either. Otherwise, he would have discovered the septmetal energy here. He had the vulcan fire energy of the fire element, evergreene energy of the wood element, the aquale energy of the water element, and the septmetal energy of the metal element that he was about to harvest. He had already gathered four out of the five energies of five elements. He would have all five elements by the time he gathered the earth energy. Moreover, he would become a smasher who possessed a darksoul and a lightsoul. Warren appeared astounded upon hearing Kayson’s remark. ‘Is there really something impressive in the tattered spear?’He was a warlord, yet how did he not notice it?Even though he held the post of Admiralporium’s chief, he would frequently travel because there were very few disastrous incidents in Skyriv.
’Why would I need a hammer?’ Kayson was at a loss of whether to laugh or cry. “Have you ever heard of Heavenless?”Warren’s pupils constricted, and he exclaimed, “I’ve heard it before, of course! This is an extremely well-known sword technique!“Delmont Hamilton from Northspring fought against the most skilled sword genius, Ezekiel Turner, by using Heavenless in the past!”“Do you think I can break the defense of the Cadogans’ Steel Screen man if I can perform the first form of Heavenless that is a hundred times more powerful than Mr. Hamilton Sr.’s move?”Warren stood up from his seat swiftly and said incredulously, “Y-You’re trained in Heavenless too!? I thought the sword technique had vanished together with Delmont?”Next to him, Master Shannong said, “Could it be that Delmont… is still alive?”Kayson nodded and said, “Mr. Hamilton Sr. is still alive and passed down Heavenless to me.“However, I don’t have a sword that is strong enough because ordinary swords can’t withstand
Kayson was pondering when the sound of rushed footsteps was heard coming from outside the Tinsleys’ home. He raised his head to look and said in astonishment, “Mr. Jackson, Master Shannong, what brings you here?”Seth’s head was drenched in a cold sweat as he said in fear, “The Cadogans are here, Mr. Yarde. They are planning on killing me, my son, and Master Shannong.“We packed up overnight and took most of our credit cards as well as our asset contracts with us. We came looking for you in a haste after learning that you’re at the Tinsleys’ home, Mr. Yarde.”Master Shannong was a skilled fighter, so he remained calm and composed despite being under the immense pressure caused by the Cadogans. Seth and Lex were different. They were panic-stricken and regarded Kayson as their only chance of survival. “Mr. Yarde, will you be able to deal with the Cadogans?” Seth looked at Kayson in a hopeful manner.Kayson shook his head. “I think that there’s a high probability of failure for
Chase’s expression changed ever so slightly. “Shall we inform Kayson then?”“Hmm, reach out to him and inform him that this man has already completed his Steel Screen training and that he is able to make a clean sweep of Skyriv if he wants. If Kayson were to get into a conflict with this man, he would most certainly be on the losing side.”…Kayson arrived at the Tinsleys’ home. Jeremy did not come forward to welcome his arrival, but it was Tyrone. He asked when he met Tyrone, “Grandpa Tyrone, where is Uncle Jeremy?”Tyrone heaved a sigh and said, “Jeremy has been summoned for a discussion. I just found out that there has been pressure from Metrocity’s Cadogans.”Kayson furrowed his eyebrows. ‘It’s the Cadogans from Metrocity again!’“Is Uncle Jeremy in danger?”Tyrone shook his head. “Don’t worry about his safety. It’s only that… the Cadogans will try to figure out a way to send Jeremy to jail.”Kayson was astonished. It would be his fault if Jeremy was framed and sent to
As soon as Taylor’s voice died away, Drake came running to them, his face ghastly pale. “Patrol Yost, Mr. Cadogan, Warren… Chief Kline and the others are back!”Drake’s expression was filled with fear and panic. Randall had told him that Warren was doomed after being encircled by many warlords.Yet, he did not expect that Randall would be beaten to death by Kayson not long after his return. On the other hand, Warren returned safely, while Chase and Ruby were fine as well.If that were the case, he was certain that he would be taken out as well in view of being Randall’s trusted subordinate!Drake remained panic-stricken. So what if the Cadogans were involved? Taylor and the Cadogans could walk away without any responsibility at any moment. How about him? He would still need to continue to hold his post in Admiralporium!Meanwhile, three figures with overbearing auras appeared before Abel and the others.The leading person was precisely Warren.Warren glanced at Drake before
Taylor had very little experience interacting with body practitioners, yet he had heard about Steelification Doyen’s grand reputation. He figured that Steelification Doyen’s reputation must not be so unworthy, right?Noticing Taylor’s disbelief, Abel smiled nonchalantly and said, “Master Steele, Patrol Yost is not a body practitioner, so why don’t you show him the power of Steel Screen?”Tegan, who looked to be a little over 50 years old, stood up. Taylor’s expression changed ever so slightly. He had experience fighting against Kayson, so he believed that he had a right to comment on Kayson’s capability. On the other hand, Tegan was a newly-recruited skilled fighter of the Cadogans, whom he had never heard of before.The Steel Screen’s reputation was widely-known, but he had never encountered skilled fighters trained in the Steel Screen. As such, he had no idea how powerful they could be.“Alright, I shall give it a try then!”Taylor did not reject the offer. Both of them arri
Kayson said with a calm expression, “I know. Don’t worry about that. These people are coming for me.”Beckham’s expression was solemn, and he appeared even more worried. “Mr. Yarde, do you know which influential figure or family from Metrocity it is specifically?”“Ah, I know. It’s the Cadogans from Metrocity.”Beckham and Christine’s expressions changed drastically in unison at once. “The Cadogans… from Metrocity?”Both of them were rendered speechless from fear.Christine’s face turned ghastly pale when she said, “H-How did you offend the Cadogans from Metrocity? You’ve truly broken the limits of mankind!”Beckham also said in a fearful tone, “The Cadogans from Metrocity… Mr. Yarde, we’re in deep trouble! Even though the Cadogans are based in Metrocity, they’re immensely powerful.“They can still affect our business in Skyspring despite being miles away!”Kayson smiled and said casually, “You will only need to manage the company’s operations. I will deal with the Cadogans f
Casey’s expression changed dramatically upon noticing the situation. He pointed at her and said in a stern voice, “You ungrateful wench! Since all of you wish to die so badly, I shall fulfill your wish!”Meanwhile, the boardroom’s door was blasted open by force, and Kayson walked into the room with long strides. He looked toward Casey and said nonchalantly, “Who did you say you’re going to kill?”Christine turned around abruptly and felt instantly relieved when she saw Kaysson was there. After all, the company belonged to Kayson, and she did not wish anything bad to happen to it.Hence, she showed her humility when she was dealing with these people. A slightly resentful gaze emerged on Christine’s face with light makeup on. “Boss, I was truly afraid that I wouldn’t be able to withstand the pressure if you still didn’t show up.”Kayson was rendered speechless. He said, “You’re a skilled fighter, yet you are scared of him?”Christine said in frustration, “I didn’t dare to fight
