“Uh…”Kayson was a little startled and felt kind of strange. Beatrice did not seem put off by him. Why? Was it because he had saved Hugh?Thinking about it, he did not find it too odd. It would not make sense if he did not sleep at Sadie’s either.“I’ll head over then, Mrs. Wolfenden.”Kayson went to Sadie’s room and knocked. No one opened even after some time had passed, and there was no sound from inside either. He could only open the door and enter anyway since Beatrice was looking at him from the side.The sound of water running came from the bathroom. Kayson raised a brow. The girl was taking a shower—that was why she did not hear him knocking on the door. He took a seat on the floor without touching the heiress’ belongings.About ten minutes later, Sadie came out of the bathroom with a towel that only reached her mid-thighs. Her legs were long and fair. She had just taken a shower, and they looked soft and delicate like an art piece.As Kayson shifted his eyes up, he saw a
Kayson came to the project department manager, Sean Batley. The latter looked concerned as he said, “Go ahead to the office all the way at the back. You’ll be the assistant team lead of The Tetrad from now on.”“Okay, thank you, Mr. Batley.” Kayson did not suspect anything and went toward the office the manager mentioned.Sean shook his head with a sigh. “How did this young man offend Ms. Wolfenden to be assigned to the ‘royal’ Tetrad? He’ll be skinned alive there! Poor fella!”…When Kayson pushed the door open, the office stank with smoke. Seven people, all men and women, were dressed wildly as they played games, smoked, and drank. This was in the office!Kayson was rendered speechless. This was The Tetrad? Were these people really employees of Wolfenden Corp?A young man who looked almost like a Super Saiyan with his hairdo looked up at Kayson and asked with a cigarette between his lips, “You’re Kayson Yarde?”Kayson nodded.The young man with the strange haircut threw his c
Kayson got his bearings, but he did not expect someone to be this ruthless and drive into them directly. He pushed open the car door, and one man got out of the four cars that rammed into them, respectively.They did not look like they had good intentions, and it was highly possible that they were all thugs.The one who felt like the leader did not do anything but target Kayson.Kayson remained unfazed as he asked them, “You’re from the Gillete Group?”The man held a dagger in his hand, keeping his sharp gaze on Kayson as he commented darkly, “You’re actually fine.”It would be a challenge for him to stay so alert and conscious through that violent collision, but this young man before him was looking alright, like he was not even affected!“Bro, no need to talk nonsense with him. Get him!” someone else yelled and attacked Kayson.Kayson scoffed and dashed forward. Before that person could react, Kayson’s punch sent him flying.“Hmm? A trained man!?”The leader of the group was
When Kayson returned to the mansion, Beatrice cooked him some noodles. She had been comforting him along the way and had shown no sign of blaming him.Kayson could not help thinking that she was really a sweet and gentle woman.Sadie was fine, so she returned to the mansion around 10:00 p.m.She was naturally scowling at Kayson, and the repulsion for him in her gaze grew stronger. She chatted with her best friend after she lay in bed.When Wanda learned about what her best friend went through today, she was angry on behalf of her and thought that she ought to teach Kayson a lesson to vent the anger for Sadie.Sadie was indifferent to it now and did not agree. She did not even have the interest to teach Kayson a lesson now. A man like this was not worth wasting her time on!The chauffeur took Kayson to the company the following day since Sadie would be leaving a little later. Kayson was walking in when a man in glasses approached him.“Kid, Sir Horacio asks for you. Come with me.
A smart man—it was a skill to be sharp and tactful too.Kayson grinned and left the place.At the same time, the chairman of the Gillete Group, Wilson, barged into the general manager's office in Wolfenden Corp to see Sadie.“Ms. Wolfenden, how does it feel to survive after the crash? Nice?” Wilson mocked the girl who was said to be the prettiest in Clouspring.Sadie scowled. “Do you have to resort to something so despicable, Mr. Gillete?”Wilson smiled nonchalantly. “Listen to yourself. You wouldn’t not know what I did when I was younger, right?“I was just utilizing some old tactics. How was that despicable?”Once Sadie thought of the accident yesterday, she could still feel a lingering fear and found it hard to recover from that.Wilson’s gaze turned savage. “Sadie Wolfenden, give up on Dickinson International, or you’ll pay for it!“You know very well who Horacio Palfrey is. Anger me, and one Horacio Palfrey is enough to ruin you!”Sadie felt her heart lurch, but she gnas
Sadie turned to look with a frown before pulling a long face and snorting. “A bumpkin would come here too? I’ve underestimated him.”“Let’s get him here?” Easton tried to persuade her.Sadie looked cold and shifted her gaze away from Kayson. “Do not. It’s already unlucky enough to just look at him.”Easton could not say more. His original intention had been to let the two of them spend more time together, but he did not expect Sadie to be so hostile to Kayson.Sadie glanced at Kayson and could not help the mental scoff when she saw that he played with his phone after finding a spot to sit. How interesting to come all the way here just to toy with his phone—was he stupid?The bar gradually entered its peak, and Easton was quick to ask, “Ms. Sade, the place is getting busier. Let’s head back?”Sadie nodded.Just when they were about to leave, seven men who looked and acted pretty much like thugs walked in.Easton’s face fell at the sight of them, and he frantically ducked his hea
Gabriel was taking over Horacio’s territories after his death and had an appointment with several bigshots at the Nightyan Bar tonight. He came over to have a look when he was informed that there was a fight in the bar.He was just fretting about not having a chance to establish his intimidation and authority, yet one came knocking on his door. That threw him over the moon!Blood left Sadie’s face. ‘Gabriel? Why him!? He’s Horacio’s godson!’Without question, Gabriel would be replacing Horacio after the latter died. She was not expecting to pull this man into the picture either. Sh*t was going down!”“Which damned—”Gabriel looked toward where Kayson was, and his expression froze. The rejoice he felt left him in the blink of an eye.‘K-Kayson!?’ It was as if a bucket of ice was dumped over Gabriel’s head as he paled visibly. He was just going to call out “Mr. Yarde” and went over to bow before he remembered that Kayson had said they did not know each other after he killed Horacio
The day of the birthday party, Kayson went to Bwell Therapeutics after he finished work and was driven to Tyrone’s party.Both Tyrone and Jeremy were incredibly polite to him. Jeremy’s change of attitude, especially, surprised Kayson.What he did not know was that the father and son had found out about Horacio’s death. Although the mafia boss was nothing to them, he was still an influential figure in Clouspring.It was also because of their regard for Kayson that they had sent the Wolfendens four invitations. Otherwise, even the best businessmen in Clouspring could hardly get the chance to attend the birthday party tonight.“Kayson, have a seat,” Tyrone said with a kind smile. “Thank you for coming to my birthday party.“I heard that you’re staying with the Wolfendens and wonder what’s your relationship with them.”Kayson answered, “My mentor owes Mr. Wolfenden Sr. a favor, and I’m here to return it.”“I see…” Realization struck Tyrone, so he told Jeremy, “Tell Daniel to pass th
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
