My King System

Chapter 135 - Pointless

Once Yuki was done talking to the woman, he turned his head to look at the henchman who was still recovering from getting thrown by Yuki. The hatred which he had stored for Yuki was too much for a single person to bear. Not only had he beaten him, but Yuki also humiliated him in front of his prey. As he saw Yuki walk towards him, the henchman looked up at Yuki and gave him a glare of death.

"You shouldn't look at people like that. Didn't your mother raise you properly? Actually never mind, someone who would hit a woman most likely has a few screws loose. How about we go for a ride, just me and you," Yuki suggested.

Of course no one had any idea of what Yuki was speaking about, it wasn't like there were cars invented in the new world yet. Even with an ability, Yuki didn't have a car with him so it made the henchman question if Yuki was an insane kid with just a lot of power.

Without allowing the henchman enough time to get up on his own, Yuki reached for the top of his head and grabbed onto his hair as he lifted him in the air.

"Activate ability: Fire Control"

Yuki used his ability to lift himself off the ground. Using his flames, Yuki continued to concentrate waves of flames to his feet and right as they reached out of his body, he would make the flames release, in turn causing them to push him higher in the air. Since Yuki was able to use his flames more freely, Yuki used his technique which he had been subconsciously using due to him using it so many times to allow himself to fly. Even while carrying someone with him, Yuki was able to execute his technique effortlessly.

As Yuki and the henchman continued to go higher in the air, the kingdom became less and less visible until at one point, all they could see were clouds under their feet.

"What do you plan to do with me now? Let me go if you wish to keep your life. If you put me down now, the less punishment you'll face," said the henchman as he tried to scare Yuki, however he was completely ignored.

"Hey, I have a question for you. Who are those guys who wear a suit and have the roman numbers on their coats?" Yuki asked.

Hearing those words scared the henchman as he was surprised Yuki learned of the squadron leaders. What was more impressive was the fact that he had learned of them but was still alive.

"Those are our squadron leaders. There are 8 of them in total and each one of them is a level 5 player or higher," the henchman lied to scare Yuki off more.

"No they're not. Level 5 players aren't that weak. I'd give them level 3 or 4 at max. Someone's gotta be lying to you," Yuki replied.

"Wait... are you telling me you've come into contact with a squadron leader and are still alive. Even so, how dare you call them weak, you probably ran away for your life at the mere sight of them," the henchman argued as he tried to protect the honour of his leaders.

"No. Seriously, I took on 3 of them at a time and they were still pretty weak. Are you sure we're talking about the same people here? The ones I met had the roman numbers 1,2, and 3. Each one was wearing a black suit and tinted black shades," Yuki explained in hope that the henchman would tell him that he was wrong and that the real squadron leaders were some devilishly strong people.

"You're joking right? You got their description perfectly. Who even are you?" the henchman asked. historical

"I'm getting tired of people asking me who I am. I should seriously invest my time into making posters so everyone can remember me," said Yuki.

"Wait... you have flames, brown eyes, and black hair. You couldn't be.." the henchman said.

"You couldn't be. Can you shut up. Do you realize how dumb you sound," said Yuki as he mocked the henchman.

"Are you Yuki Kaito?" the henchman asked.

"No I'm not. Does your entire organization lack the brain capacity to process basic information? Of course I'm Yuki Kaito, who else would be able to do this?" Yuki said as he grew enraged.

"Well, there's no point in hiding it from you any longer. I think I'm done with living. I'll die here anyway so I might as well just tell you," said the henchman.

"Tell me what?" Yuki asked.

"Most people actually know exactly who you are due to your face being published in a local news article a while back then once again after the incident between you and the combined forces of the 3 kingdoms. That would also include our organization. Everyone in our organization was forced to memorize a protocol in which if we ever encounter you, we should act like we don't know you and then once you've shown us your true strength, we would pretend you're amazing by showering you with compliments and end up escaping with our lives. It's quite the simple plan but it would've worked, however, I'm too tired to deal with this. Just drop me here, I don't have much to live for anyway," said the henchman.

"How do I know this isn't part of your plan to escape. Actually, ignore that. I'll grant your wish," Yuki said as he let go of the henchman.

Yuki watched as the henchman fell towards the ground all while he had the face of someone who was satisfied. He really hadn't been lying to Yuki. In fact, this was what he had wanted. He wanted Yuki to think that he was lying and in the end grant his actual wish.

"Now I see. However, I won't allow you to be satisfied. I don't know what made you join such a shady organization but I'm glad you realized that there's no point in helping them," said Yuki as he propelled himself downwards. A moment later, Yuki was below the henchman. Just as he planned, Yuki caught the henchman and safely brought both of them down to the ground.
