Kayson went over and picked the pill up with the needle to study it.“Dis Eras.”Kayson looked at Tamayo, who paled icily and explained, “This is a poisonous pill that could dissolve a practitioner’s inner energy and destroy their tendons.”“What!?”Yuri, Jim, and the others were astounded. That was one vicious pill!“If you lose your prowess because of this, you’ll hardly be able to gather inner energy again even if I reconnect your tendons for you using Chalcedony Juice.”Yuri felt chills running down his spine as delayed fear struck him. He gritted his teeth and snarled furiously, “Tamayo, you’re brutal!”Tamayo cried out, “Bullsh*t! How dare you accuse me! I pride myself in being upright and open, so how could I possibly have something like this!?“Yuri Cash, you’re framing me and accusing me wrongfully! Just you wait, my brother will seek justice for me!”Yuri was so angry that he huffed, letting out a laugh. This f*cker was crying about being wronged?Tamayo looked at K
Campian was using the place as a temporary office. He had asked Naomi to do a full-body check on Hendery, and the result that came in shocked the pharmacist.Hendery, who had been on the brink of death yesterday, had recovered 70-80% today!It was a… miracle. How had he done it?“What did he use on you?” Naomi asked.Hendery scratched his head and answered anxiously, “I think it’s called, uh… Chalcedony Juice?”Campian and Naomi both looked shocked as he crushed the glass in his hand.“F*ck!” Even Campian could not help cursing. Treating Hendery with Chalcedony Juice… would cost at least $15,000,000!Naomi gasped. “Chalcedony Juice… Are you aware of its value?“Its market price is on average $15,000,000 but most recently, someone spent $75,000,000 to get one drop of it!”Hendery was dumbstruck upon hearing that.“I-I didn’t know it was so precious…”Campian sighed. “Mr. Yarde’s… really amazing!”At that moment, Willow came in with some documents, grumbling, “Captain! The vi
Kayson smiled. “I certainly wouldn’t sit around since you want to kill me.“It’s just that the more I interact with and understand the legendary Admiralporium, the more disappointed I am.”Aquilo was disdainful. “The name of Admiralporium isn’t someone insignificant like you can blaspheme. You shall die now!”Aquilo let out a low cry, circulating and releasing his energy to form a strong punch targeted at Kayson.Needless to say, Aquilo was skilled when he could become the vice-captain. Admiralporium would not have chosen him for the position otherwise. Since he had joined the organization with a high position, the resources he could get his hands on were unimaginable and would help elevate his practice in martial arts.Kayson picked up a fork and unleashed a powerful sword aura that made Yuri and Jim suck in cold breaths.“The sword aura!”This was something only masters who practiced swords would be able to do. Kayson was actually a swordmaster?! Would it be effective that he
The moment Jonah heard that someone was causing trouble at the hotel, he was infuriated. When he asked who the culprit was and was told that it was Kayson, his heart nearly stopped beating in shock. He left whatever he was in to rush over immediately.“Mr. Yarde! Ms. Todd! Are you both fine!?”Jonah dashed to the two of them the moment he came in.Kayson shook his head. “Fine. What brings you here?”Jonah grinned obsequiously. “Listen to you… If something happened to you, I’d rush back even if I were overseas!”“Jonah Sander!”There was no doubt that Tamayo knew the general manager as he yelled, “The Sirens Hotel’s got to be responsible since these people dared beat me up!“It’ll affect Mr. Fernando Saul’s reputation if word gets out!”Jonah was nearly scared witless. ‘Damn it, who was it who brought up Fernando at this moment? Is he trying to pick on me!?’He turned back and growled, “It’s you, Tamayo! Fernando’s dead! What nonsense are you talking about?“The chairman of th
Aquilo was shocked when he saw the two men by the door. He had a bad feeling but asked anyway, “Captain Cooke, Captain Wolke, what brings the two of you here?”Campian’s gaze was cold as he scanned the injured Aquilo but ignored him. He then approached Kayson with Shien and bowed. “Mr. Yarde, sorry for the embarrassment.”What the Admiralporium vice-captain had said and done felt like a joke.Shien’s face was still wrapped up, but his gaze was apologetic.“Mr. Yarde, thank you for saving me. I hope you’re able to excuse and forgive my offense back at the Hamiltons!”Kayson nodded and replied, “I’ve heard of Admiralporium’s name recently, but I’m quite disappointed now that I understand it more.”Campian quickly spoke up, “Mr. Yarde, Aquilo alone can’t possibly represent the whole Admiralporium!”The reason Kayson had stood out to him was not his pre-celestial stage but his amazing medical skills. Being a pre-celestial fighter was a rare accomplishment, but the Admiralporium had
“Don’t think that you’re powerful. It’d be a walk in the park for Mr. Yarde to take care of ten of you at a time.”Aquilo was inwardly quivering. ‘Jesse Lynch? Kayson killed that savage too!?’Aquilo left like a fleeing rat. As for those who had come with Tamayo, they were in tears from the shock and kept apologizing to Yuri, asking for his forgiveness.Yuri did not bother with them, so he asked Jonah to get the security guards to chase them away.“Kayson, I didn’t expect you to be so martially skilled too. To think you killed the top expert in Northspring, Fernando!”Kayson smiled. “There’s always someone better. I just happen to be at a higher level.”“That’s not it. Fernando was said to be at the peak of the master level, but his martial skill was enough to put him on par with a grandmaster,” said Jim.Yuri chuckled wryly. “Kayson, Aquilo’s too advanced compared to me. You should’ve killed him when you had the chance just now.“Otherwise, a master-level enemy is like a hidde
When Kayson got out of the bathroom after taking a shower and saw Rowena on the couch, it was only a matter of course that he knew what she was thinking. He went over and sat beside her, easily pushing a needle into her.“Kayson…” Rowena mumbled before she collapsed in Kayson’s arms, her towel slipping off during the action.Kayson gulped as his eyes feasted on the sight, but he carried Rowena to the bed and left after tucking her in.He returned to his room and meditated. He had made a small gain from the battle with Aquilo today. His sword aura had gotten stronger, and his manipulation of it felt more at ease.“There are eight styles in the Heavenless that emphasize the execution of aura and energy. Mr. Hamilton Sr.’s sword aura must be rather strong, but he could only execute two styles at most.“I wonder what swordsmanship Ezekiel practices. Mr. Hamilton Sr. couldn’t defeat him back then, even though he had mastered two styles.”Even Kayson felt pressured now.“The true powe
“It’s you…”Kayson said nonchalantly, “I’ve already stabilized your injury, but it would be best if you could rest for a few days. Otherwise, you’re going to suffer from long-term health effects.”“I’m Juniper Seely, and I’m grateful to you for saving my life.”“I’m Kayson Yarde. Don’t mention it, just remember to pay up.”Juniper nodded in all seriousness. “I’ll pay up for sure, and I won’t let your effort go to waste, Mr. Yarde.”Kayson gave her a small amount of powdered Blazing Root because it was good for replenishing her energy.Kayson said, “The person who hurt you is very powerful, and you’re lucky that you managed to escape.”Juniper only now recalled that Kayson could tell that a grandmaster had injured her before she lost consciousness. “Sir… Are you a fighter from a martial arts academy?”Kayson could not help laughing in spite of himself. “I suppose so, but I’m not tied to any academy.”Juniper was slightly disappointed upon hearing that. She was under the assum
