It felt like a huge blow to her ego as the mentee of Living Reaper.“Mr. Yarde, why are you here? Did you save me?”Campian, who had just regained consciousness, seemed agitated.Kayson nodded and told him, “Speak less, Captain Wolke. Close your eyes and rest some more.”“Okay, I’ll take your advice, Mr. Yarde,” Campian replied gratefully.Kayson turned to say, “Naomi, I’ll leave the rest of Captain Wolke’s case to you and go check on the grandmaster who’s kindly helped them.”“Mn.”It felt weird to Naomi. Why did it feel like she became Kayson’s assistant? If her mentor were to find out, he would probably shake in a rage. Naomi sighed inwardly. She wanted to complain to her mentor that it was not that she lacked as his apprentice—Kayson was simply too unbelievably skilled!Kayson went to the elder grandmaster, who had jumped in to save the day. The latter’s hair and beard were white, and so was his face, as his vital signs were barely showing. His internal organs were also inj
Danson did as he was told before he exclaimed in delight, “I can do it! I can control my energy now!”The issue that had been bothering him for years was actually resolved today. He was so thrilled that he wanted to howl into the sky.Those who knew him knew that he was a chivalrous man who would step in at the sight of injustice, but they also felt bad for him—that life was not fair to him. He was such a kind soul, but this was the bad ending he received. The life he had was worse than most criminals.Danson had not hoped to be repaid for his kind deeds, but he was overwhelmed with emotions now that his injuries healed. Life had not given up on him!“Please accept this bow from me, Dr. Yarde!”Danson wore a solemn look and was going to get on his knees, but Kayson quickly stopped him.“Stop messing with me, Mr. Walde. If you hadn't acted in the name of justice earlier, my friends would probably be dead.“I should be the one thanking you!”Danson laughed heartily. “Haha, alrigh
An intimidating force rose within Jude’s body, scaring most of them in the cave.“Mr. Held, it’s a misunderstanding! This is a misunderstanding!” Felicity quickly spoke up. The force made her feel like she was being choked and filled her with fear.Campian’s expression morphed into terror and anxiousness. ‘Sh*t!’Although Kayson could not be blamed, Jude was from Eternalporium after all!Kayson turned to tell him, “Captain Wolke, if I kill him, you have to be my witness that he provoked me first.”Campian jolted and could not help coughing again.Jude snarled, “What a bold claim to say that you’d kill me!“In that case, why don’t you try me? Let’s see if you’re only sharp with your tongue!”Jude attacked with a palm strike right after he spoke. Domineering power launched itself into intangible steel energy that the wall of the cave cracked from the pressure.Danson narrowed his eyes as he cried in a low warning tone, “Dr. Yarde, watch out!”He dashed forward and countered wit
Kayson and the others left the cave and walked down to a relatively flat area.Jude was already standing there waiting, intimidating and authoritative, with his arms on his back.A strong man with sinewy muscles walked out from the woods. Each step he took unnerved everyone there. He stopped when he saw Jude.Jude spoke plainly. “You got away from an easy fight just now, and you actually dare come back again. Have you not realized the disparity of our abilities?”The muscular man did not say anything but kept an indifferent gaze on Jude. It put a frown between Jude’s brows as his expression turned icy. “I’m Jude Held from Eternalporium. Who are you?”“Gael Sky.”The man finally said something. That was all, though, before he stomped a foot and vanished in a flash.A menacing steel gale appeared the moment he vanished and swept toward Jude.Jude raised a brow and exclaimed, “Your inner energy is high in intensity. Interesting!”Gael appeared right before Jude and sent a punch r
Kayson shook his head and stepped away, asking, “What physical training technique do you practice?”“Gilded Guard.”Gael asked indifferently, “I heard that you practice the Titanium Technique?”Kayson nodded. “Yeah. I haven’t reached the heaven stage yet. I’m currently perfecting the stage of being a steel fighter.”“I’m slightly stronger than you then. I became a titanium fighter a few days ago,” replied Gael.Without using any power or energy, their fists then met with just the execution of physically-trained steel power.With the loud sound, Kayson staggered a few steps back, feeling his insides churn. He was alarmed. That was a heavy punch. The power of a titanium fighter was extraordinary!“Your Titanium Technique’s decent,” Gael commented calmly. “It’s unfortunate that I’m instructed to kill you.”Kayson arched his brow and asked, “So you’re from Eden Joy? This was a trap to lure me here today, and Willow’s escape was intentional?”That was because Willow was the only on
Gael was severely injured since he had taken Kayson’s Vulcan Firepalm twice. If he was still able to move about freely, the power of the Gilded Guard would be terrifying.As he half lay on the ground with two arms supporting his upper body, his gaze held no fear for death as he kept it on Kayson.“The Titanium Technique lives up to its reputation,” Gael praised sincerely after a moment of silence.Kayson did not get too close to him as he tossed the Lightning Charmboards out. The charmboards hovered above Gael on two sides facing each other. He asked, “You should recognize the Lightning Charmboard, right?”Gael nodded. “Master Gray’s work. Of course I know about it. I didn’t expect that I still couldn’t kill you even after deflecting your darksoul.“You even have Lightning Charmboards now, and you know how to use them… Who are you?”Kayson did not answer him but continued asking, “With what you can do, even if you aren’t unrivaled at the grandmaster level, there shouldn’t be many
Kayson thought for a while and said, “Sure. I happen to be short-handed as of the moment.” Gael grinned happily after Kayson agreed to it.Kayson flung a pill at Gael. After the latter took it, he exclaimed, “What is this pill called?”“Well…” Kayson was tongue-tied. After all, it was just a normal pill that he simply made.“You can call it the Regenerative Pill…”Gael nodded understandingly and asked, his voice filled with wonder. “Did you make it yourself? It’s awesome!” ‘Oh, stop it. This pill is useless. The only useful thing is the evergreen energy inside of me!’However, Kayson was not going to tell him that. He kept silent, and both of them walked toward the cave behind them.Felicity and the rest wiped the beads of sweat on their foreheads as they waited in front of the cave.Looking at Kayson, Felicity couldn’t help herself and exclaimed, “Both of us are grandmasters, but why is there such a huge difference between us?”Campian nodded. “It seems to me that Mr. Ya
At Admiralporium, at the Vice Chief's office…Jude had already gotten back, and Taylor was here.He was shocked when he saw how battered Jude was. After all, he was fully aware of Jude’s strength.Jude roughly ran him through the whole story, and Taylor nodded. Then, he said, “He’s going to be a tough opponent if he’s an expert in the Titanium Technique and a physically-trained grandmaster.” Randall hastily asked, “Mr. Held, is it true that everyone from the eighth division is dead?”Jude harrumphed coldly and replied, “Of course, they’re dead. That guy named Gael is strong. There’s no way they can make it out alive.”Randall frowned and continued worriedly. “I heard that Kayson is pretty good as well. Even Zeus was defeated and killed by him.“If he was with them, I’m afraid…”Jude was displeased when he heard what Randall said. “That kid? Do you really think Zeus is that powerful? He’s even weaker than Gael, and only you people think that he’s powerful. A skill like the Ti
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
