My King System Chapter 136
Advertisement
Once Yuki and the henchman landed back on the ground, Yuki let go of him and allowed him to get on his feet. From his facial expression, Yuki could tell that he was angry but also too exhausted to do anything. Yuki had rescued him from certain death but he just allowed him to continue his horrible life. Yuki had robbed the henchman of the opportunity to end his miserable life. Even though the henchman hated Yuki for his actions, it wasn't like he could do anything about it. At the end of the day. Yuki could demolish everyone in the kingdom without even trying.
"Why did you let me live? You realize that I'll just continue to work for the gang and keep on doing horrific actions. At the end of the day, I don't have anywhere to go back to. This life and the past, in both I'll always be alone, I can't rely on anyone other than myself. As such, this is the fastest way for me to secure a half decent life," said the henchman.
"Money isn't everything," Yuki tried to reason with the henchman who was now sitting on the ground from mental and physical exhaustion.
"Yes it is. Look at the world Yuki. Everything is governed by money. We kidnap and sell people for money. We get paid money for our work just so we can spend it once again. Money is the law of the world. Even our organization is run by money. Our boss is just some ordinary guy, however since he started the gang, he earns a large majority of the money we gain from our sales," the henchman explained.
"You're right. I was too foolish to suggest something like that. I won't try to control you, whatever you do with your life is your choice. However, you won't be kidnapping anyone from here," said Yuki.

As he continued to speak, behind Yuki, the woman which he had saved grew angry to the point where she was fuming. She couldn't believe the one she thought of as her hero was Yuki. The one that had killed so many, including her father in the great battle. Her perception of Yuki turned upside down as she now viewed him as the devil. As Yuki continued to speak with the henchman, the woman charged towards him with a blade in her hand which she had changed her ability and used her new ability to construct.
Before she could make contact with Yuki's body, Yuki put his hand back and reached for her wrist without even needing to look at her and pulled her in front of him. Yuki knew exactly why she wanted to kill him. Just as most people who hated him, she probably had hatred towards him due to him killing a loved one of hers or because of the perception of him which other people had.
"Let go of me!" yelled the woman as he tried to tug her wrist away from Yuki.
"Why should I? You just tried to kill me. Wouldn't it be better for me to return the favour? I mean it's the polite thing to do," said Yuki as he stared at her down with a serious look in his eyes.
"It's not fair! Why did you have to kill everyone?" the woman asked as she began to tear up.
"She's annoying, I should toy with her for a bit," Yuki said to himself.
"To be quite literal, I only killed them because they came in my way. If they weren't so stupid, they would've continued to live their peaceful lives," Yuki replied.
"Couldn't you just cause some minor injuries then let them off with a warning? Why did you resort to murder?" the woman asked.

"She's actually got to be stupid. Why wouldn't I kill someone who tried to kill me first? Secondly, I had tried to give them a chance to escape, but no. They had to be stubborn and try to fight me. Well in my opinion, they got what they deserved. However, I can't tell her that. She'll just keep asking questions that get dumber by the second, I've got to end this now," Yuki told himself as he let go of the woman's wrist.
"To be perfectly honest, I'm just evil. I kill for fun. It brings me joy and satisfaction. I like to hear the sound of people begging for their lives. Now you know the truth, what are you going to do about it?" said Yuki.
Hearing his words, the woman began to cry. She knew that he was right. It wasn't like she could defeat him through judging him and telling him what to do. She would need to gain actual strength through gaining exp and leveling up.
"That's what I thought. You can cry your heart out but your loved ones will never return. Matter of fact, I'm feeling extra evil today," said Yuki as he took a couple steps away from the woman who was crying while she was on her knees.
"Activate ability: Fire Control"
Yuki created a large hollow cylindrical pillar which surrounded the crying woman. Yuki had trapped her just to show her how helpless she was against him. Once he had done so, Yuki helped the henchman to get on his feet and they began to walk around the kingdom in search of the two other squadron leaders.
"Why did you lie to her like that?" the henchman asked.
"I don't know. She was very obnoxious. I thought about trying to change how people viewed me here since when I rule the entire world, I wouldn't want all my subject to hate me, but if I have to deal with people like her, I would rather force people to like me," said Yuki which made the henchman chuckle.
"Well, you can't make people like you by killing their loved ones then telling them how much you enjoyed doing it. You need to have a little bit of patience," said the henchman.
The henchman was a completely different person than he was before. Unlike last time, he didn't have a short temper and didn't jump to conclusions. This had solidified Yuki's belief that he had really been acting like a basic grunt previously because he was forced to.
