“Myra, no!” Kent and Jane cried in shock. They knew if Myra killed Pastor Angelo, the girl would also lose her life. “Old man, even if you are compassionate, you shouldn’t really do this, risking your life and such.” As the knife swung down at Pastor Angelo, a strong hand extended from behind and grabbed the pastor by the back of his collar. He was then dragged backward and tossed to the couch, like how Kaze saved Kent earlier. Kaze finally intervened. “You!” The clergies reacted with anger but swiftly realized Kaze was saving the pastor. However, they disapproved of his rough method. Ignoring the horrified crowd, Kaze looked at Myra who swung the knife at him. He took a quick deep breath and shouted, “OUT!” Everyone else in the room was shocked. What did he just do? Myra was swinging the knife at him, yet he shouted at Myra. Myra did not even hold back when it came to the clergies or the bodyguards, and she even tried to kill Pastor Angelo. What gave Kaze t
“What the…” “Is Kaze Lee that terrifying?” “Impossible! He is just a charlatan, a liar! How could he be more powerful than Pastor Angelo?” Cole fell on his butt and cried like a wimpy boy. He never would have thought that Myra, who almost killed Pastor Angelo, would run away like a terrified little girl in front of Kaze. It sounded ridiculous. Kent was baffled as well. Even though he knew Kaze was capable of solving this matter because he saved his life back on the train, it was still unbelievable that one shout was all it took for him to scare Myra away. “Holy shit, is he the real God or what?” Professor Wilson widened his eyes in shock as well. He looked down on Kaze earlier because of the misleading first impression and how he argued with a professional like himself. He urged Kent to send Kaze away last night. Now, after getting hurt by Myra, he was looking miserable and did not do anything useful. On the other hand, Kaze simply shouted and seemed to have sol
Fwoosh! The quiet bushes suddenly rattled loudly and a dark and scrawny figure jumped out, running toward the tall walls at lightning speed. The dark figure might be fast but Kaze was faster. He tiptoed and then boosted himself into the air. He appeared behind the dark figure like a phantom and then punched him to the ground. Bang! The dark figure almost reached the top of the wall but was punched back to the ground. He left a deep crater when he crashed and blood spewed from his mouth. “Fuck! How dare you ruin the plan of the Ninja Clan! No matter who you are, you are already a dead man!” The dark figure got up and shouted at Kaze. The eyes that he did not cover up gleamed coldly. “So you are from Ryokan.” Kaze asked coldly, “Ninja Clan? Can you represent the whole Ninja Clan of Ryokan? Not even Daiso Kailan whom I killed had the nerve to make that claim.” The ninjas of Ryokan, also generally known as the Ninja Clan, had more than a hundred branches. The dark fig
“We never thought that the Ryokan ninja would target Myra. It completely slipped us.” Kent reacted grimly to the situation. “It’s not that easy for them to cast the curse either. There should be a medium they use and it should be around the target. I’ll check around later.” Kaze had a look at the pale and delicate Myra in her parents’ arms. “Myra has been cursed for a while now and it’s inevitable that her mental and physical states are damaged. “But it’s no big deal. Find a good doctor and give her some medicine to regulate her condition. Three to six months later, she should recover fully.” “I see. Thank you!” Kent finally was able to smile happily. He quickly ordered his men to find the best doctor in town. As the mayor and a member of the Synder family, he knew many good doctors, so Kaze did not have to worry about that. The body of the dead ninja was bagged and taken away. No one dared to question Kaze anymore. The issue that had plagued the Synder family for s
After Harken was done with Myra’s treatment and left the room, he heard that Pastor Angelo was also in the house so he visited the parlor to meet him. Coincidentally, he saw Pastor Angelo apologizing to Kaze, which made him take a second look at Kaze’s face before walking away. Since Pastor Angelo was already of old age, the clergies had to help him exit the room and leave the mayor’s residence. After Myra took the medicine and rested, only then did Kent get the time to settle down and thank Kaze in person. “Kaze, Dr. Otter has checked Myra and as you said, three to six months later, she will recover. “I can’t thank you enough. You saved my life and my daughter’s life. I am truly in your debt. Don’t worry, I am a man of my promise.” He bowed respectfully as he thanked Kaze. Kaze helped him up and said, “It’s no big deal. But if you trusted me earlier, Myra wouldn’t have to go through all that.” Kent looked guilty. “I am truly sorry for not trusting you and almost got My
“Thank you, Mr. Lee! You are a god to me!” Professor Wilson breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Kaze for his mercy. Kaze protected his reputation and also his source of income, so it was not exaggerating for the professor to view him as a god. Professor Wilson was escorted out while he cried and cheered for Kaze. Kent then looked at Cole coldly. Cole gulped and lowered his head. He knew his uncle wanted him to apologize to Kaze. If he could not get Kaze’s forgiveness, then his uncle would punish him severely. With all options exhausted, Cole went over to Kaze and lowered his head. “Kaze, I am sorry. I hereby apologize for what I have done. I shouldn’t have looked down on you or offended you. “As for what happened last night, I had it coming. It was not your fault, and I guarantee that I won’t take revenge or anything. Please forgive me.” Kaze was expressionless. He said, “You are saying that I am afraid that you are going to come after me for revenge?” “I…” Co
Had Cole not been his nephew, Kent would have strangled him. After Cole left, Kaze said to Kent, “Mr. Synder, it’s not that I want to badmouth Cole but he has ulterior motives for Myra. Do keep an eye on him. Just don’t let Myra marry him.” Kent was surprised. As he quickly connected the dots, he understood what Kaze was talking about. He got agitated. “That bastard! How dare he!” “You don’t need to be so angry. Just keep it to yourself and don’t let them get together,” Kaze said. It was Kent’s family affair and Kaze had no right to be nosy about it. However, he was quite fond of the girl and did not want a bastard like Cole to ravage her, hence the friendly reminder to Kent. Kent nodded. He calmed down and said awkwardly, “It’s embarrassing that I don’t know my own family affair…” Kaze shook his head without being concerned. He said, “Mr. Synder, can I have a word with you alone?” “Give us the room,” Kent said to Hamlin. Hamlin nodded and then led everyone out of t
Sanwell Finances was one of the top four conglomerates in Ryokan. The other three would be the world-renowned Tosiba, Sohny, and Hoda. Unlike the others, Sanwell Finances was not solely owned by a royal family but a collective group operated by many families in Ryokan. Some were royal families, while others were natives from the Edo period, and the rest were families that had risen to prominence lately. In order to control the businesses better, the families formed K Division, making it the highest authoritarian body. The families possessed authority and power within K Division based on their shares. It was like a massive board in a company; a conglomerate that had been operating for hundreds of years and owned businesses all across the world. One could only imagine how complicated the conflict of interest within the board and how fierce the competitions were. The Well family had a strong position in K Division, which was also proof of their own strength. Kaze was not ove
