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
Kayson was slightly taken aback before he answered, “We just got to know each other.”Shyla stayed stoic. Who would buy that they had just gotten to know each other when they had come back so late after going out together!?Kayson went inside, and Cecile smiled. “You’re back, Kayson. Are you hungry? I can make you something.”“No, I’m good. I brought some yummy things back for you.”Kayson had gotten some expensive dishes back from the Sirens Hotel. The chefs there cooked so well that even he did not have much to complain about. He believed that Cecile would like the food.Cecile nodded quietly, looking at the spread of expensive dishes before she called Shyla in to eat with her.When Shyla tasted the food, she felt her eyes glow. “Not bad. Which hotel did you get the food from?”“The Sirens Hotel.”“The Sirens Hotel? It’s no wonder… I heard that the chefs there are the best even among their peers.”Kayson smiled. “I’m not sure about that, but since even the great Ms. Tinsley
Shyla shuddered, and an unprecedented pleasure caused her to moan in reflex. As soon as she did, though, she blushed until she turned scarlet. It was so embarrassing!Kayson withdrew his lightning energy and said, “You’re fine now.”“I-I’ll go to bed then!”Shyla, who thought of her moan just now, wanted to bury herself underground as she scurried out of the room in embarrassment.Kayson did not mind and just called Cecile in.A while later, the latter ran out of the room with a crimson face as well.Kayson slept in Timothy’s room while Shyla and Cecile shared a room.As Kayson remedied the toxin in both girls, an old man in plain gray clothes opened his eyes abruptly in a cave several kilometers away.“The two poisonous energies were cured not even three minutes apart. This person’s energy repertoire is unimaginably dense.” The old man sighed. “Looks like I need to get the Hamilton-style swordsmanship manual soon, or I might not be able to fight him…”The old man in gray was
The sales associate regained clarity the moment Kayson pulled out the ball of mind power left in her. She stared at the black globule of energy on Kayson’s needle in disbelief and asked, “What is this?”She could not move but she could hear and see.“The medium the culprit left in you to control you.” Kayson produced a porcelain vial and put the energy in with a wooden cork that had a rune on it.Even though the sales associate found it absurd, she believed it now. There was really something as bizarre in this world!Shyla went up to her with a soft smile. “Don’t be scared. What’s your name?”“I-I’m Waverly Faber.”“I’m Shyla Tinsley, and this is my sister, Cecile Redcliff, and my boyfriend, Kayson Yarde.”Kayson glanced at Shyla as she said that, but the latter seemed unfazed. She was not looking at Kayson as she asked Waverly, “Waverly, have you come across a strange or peculiar person lately?”“No, I’ve been working basically every day,” Waverly answered.Kayson walked to t
