I Am the Ruler of All (Kingsley) novel Chapter 800

Serena sensed something wrong in Kingsley's tone, so she immediately warned him, "The ancient martial arts the Stewarts possess are no joke. Don't provoke them!"

"Serena, haven't you fought against me before?" Kingsley curled his lips into a smirk. "Considering my skills, why would I be afraid of them?"

She shook her head in response. "Your skills are indeed impressive, but ancient martial arts are techniques that have been passed down from our ancestors. It's not something you can surpass with just a few days of training. If you don't tell me why you want to contact the Stewarts, I won't help you. It's for your own safety."

He knew that she was only doing this out of worry. So, he smiled and said, "Serena, do you know a person named Zephyr Stewart, among the younger generation of the Stewarts?"

Her eyes widened as she exclaimed, "Zephyr Stewart?! He's probably the most talented person in his generation! I remember that one time he paid a visit to the dōjō. He was already extremely skilled back then. If everything goes as expected, his skills should have surpassed most of the Stewarts by now!"

Kingsley simply smiled and pointed at himself. "Zephyr lost to me!"

She couldn't bring herself to say even a word at his response. Her originally enchanting eyes widened in disbelief! It was filled with an expression of incredulity!

"What?! You defeated Zephyr? You've already fought against each other?!"

As she spoke, she reached out to touch him, worriedly saying, "How could you fight against someone like that?! Kingsley, are you injured?!"

In her mind, even if he had won against Zephyr, he couldn't have possibly won unscathed. As a result, her face was filled with unbridled worry for him.

He grinned from ear to ear. "I'm not injured. We didn't exchange many moves before that kid was thrown off the arena."

Serena curled her lips into an enchanting smile. "You want to thank me? It's simple! Just provide me with a few orders!"

"Orders?" Kingsley couldn't help but feel exasperated by her answer. "Is your company doing so poorly? Do assassins have to seek out commissions all by themselves now?"

She sighed wearily before replying, "As you're well aware, I'm currently a level-two assassin. Level-two assassins need to accumulate enough mission points to be promoted to level-one. Unfortunately, the targets for most of the missions for level-two assassins are ordinary people. So, there are scarcely any orders available. I don't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately, so I only target those who have committed heinous crimes. As a result, my performance in the company is almost at the bottom! Becoming a level-one assassin and taking on more advanced missions seems naught but a distant dream!"

This was the first time he had ever heard of assassins accumulating points for promotion. So, he couldn't help but ask, "What's so different about the missions after becoming a level-one assassin? Aren't you still taking orders to kill people?"

"Of course, it's different! The targets of level-one assassins are all people with some reputation in society! Moreover, the reasons for clients placing orders to level-one assassins are rarely personal grudges. Most of them are due to business competition, political positions, corruption, academic debates, and so on. Not only are there more orders and choices, but it's also very fulfilling to carry out the killings!" Serena exclaimed defiantly.
