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
Campian nodded. “Yes, our captain said that you’re the main contributor in the assassination of Jesse, Mr. Yarde.“According to our internal reward system, you will be receiving a cash reward of $1,500,000.”Frankly, he did not think Kayson would be bothered about $1,500,000. After all, he was already aware that Kayson was the owner of a big hotel like the Sirens Hotel. “We are unable to commend your service openly because you’re not a member of Admiralporium.“So, our captain decided that everything we acquired from Jesse will be given to you.”Kayson exclaimed, “What did you acquire from Jesse?”Campian said, “The Firepalm Technique manual and three debit cards. We have found that the total amount in the accounts linked to the three cards is $53,000,000.“Other than that, there are two pill bottles with some pills in them.”Kayson’s expression changed ever so slightly. He was not that interested in the other items but the Firepalm Technique manual. ‘Could it be that Jesse le
”The son of an influential figure in Skyspring also had feelings for the most beautiful woman in Northspring at the time.“It was unfortunate that the most beautiful woman in Northspring was very devoted to Mr. Hamilton Sr. and married him afterward. “The son of the influential figure commissioned a master-level fighter to kill the most beautiful woman in Northspring.“Mr. Hamilton Sr. was grief-stricken and asked for Admiralporium to act on his behalf to uphold justice for his deceased wife.“However, every Admiralporium member remained silent and disregarded his request. “When Mr. Hamilton Sr. learned that the man had such a powerful influence that not even the Admiralporium could take action on him, he was so furious that he destroyed the door of the Admiralporium’s headquarters.“Admiralporium was conscious of its own mistake and did not try to pick a fight with him. From then on, Mr. Hamilton Sr. returned to Northspring and devoted his attention to training.“Afterward, h
Kayson was momentarily stunned. ‘Stellification Doyen is in Skyriv?’He could not help recalling Atticus Goldman, who had tried to murder Hendrick Whitman. Atticus had been trained in self-protective shield techniques as well.Kayson kept quiet for a short moment before he said, “Mr. Hamilton Sr., how much do you know about Steelification Doyen?”Delmon did not think too much about the question and answered, “Not much, but his name is widely known. It is said that his training technique is known as the Titanium Technique.“It’s one of the top techniques in all areas, including attack, slaying, and defense. He was already capable of beating a grandmaster to death a long time ago.”Kayson asked, “Does he have any mentees who trained with the same technique?”Delmont was stunned. “I’m not really sure about that…”Kayson could only call up Campian because he figured the Admiralporium members should know about that. Campian said in astonishment, “Yes, Steelification Doyen has a f
Shyla said, “Kayson, didn’t the Zachry Group’s owner give Cecile a villa as an apology? When are you taking her to see it?”Kayson recalled that Bo had given him the keys when he paid her a visit to apologize to her.He had been so busy that he had forgotten about that.“I still have some matters to attend to today, so let’s do it tomorrow.”“Sure, just don’t forget about it.”Kayson nodded while Shyla continued watching the tablet's TV show with Cecile. It had already been rather difficult for a man like Timothy to bring up Cecile. In addition, his jobs had had to do with manual labor, so how much money could he make?Cecile had never even used many electronic products in her life. Shyla did not want her sister to be teased by others for being a bumpkin when she went off to college.Hence, she had not only purchased many beautiful clothes for Cecile but also given her the most expensive phone and tablet. She taught Cecile to familiarize herself with these products while wat
Kayson took a glance at her and asked, “What’s going on? Do you not like the place?”Cecile panicked in her heart and shook her head in haste. “No… I… I’ve never been in such a beautiful house.”Shyla cracked a gentle smile. “This is your real estate from now on, Cecile. You’re the owner of this place and may live here for as long as you like.”Cecile’s eyes reddened with tears, and she muttered to herself, “It would be great if my father could live here too…”Shyla kept quiet for a short while. Frankly, she admired Timothy a lot for being a poor. Although he was uneducated, he had the desire to do better in life and had been willing to work hard. She believed that Timothy should have been able to get himself a wife. However, Timothy had not done so and raised Cecile all by himself. Apparently, he had been afraid his new wife would mistreat Cecile. On the other hand, it was apparent that Cecile trusted and depended on Timothy very much. A strong, deep kinship bound the father
Shamaine sneered in a mocking manner. “You didn’t? Why do you still bother to pretend when even that scumbag admitted to it? I’m revolted by little b*tches who seek pity like you!“Cecile, do you remember what I told you back then? I said I would beat you up every time I see you!”Upon saying that, Shamaine walked past Kayson, clenched her fist, and swung toward Cecile. It was fortunate that Kayson managed to clutch her wrist.However, the young man’s gaze dimmed. He sneered and said, “My friend, it would be best if you don’t intervene in a matter between two women as a man, right?”He raised his arm in an attempt to pull away Kayson’s arm, only to discover that he could not budge Kayson’s arm in the slightest bit.He was shocked and exerted so much strength that his face flushed. Yet, there was nothing he could do to move Kayson’s arm. Kayson swung his arm gently and sent Shamaine staggering backward. The young man caught her before she fell.Shamaine cried and shouted, “Fre
