My King System Chapter 195
Advertisement
As Scar, Avila and Yuki walked out of the castle's first floor, they couldn't help but feel as if everyone's eyes were on them because that was what was happening. Those 3 were the ones who caused all the ruckus and caused not only Adam Andre to show up but also Arthur who was the leader of WD. Whoever those 3 were, people made sure to take a note to stay away from them as they didn't want to get involved in the trouble which they were going to cause. It wouldn't have been surprising if they were to get kicked out of the clan right after their first day. Nevertheless, they went on with their day as if nothing happened.
After the 3 exited the castle, Scar went in for a high five which Yuki reluctantly accepted. The only one who was left confused was Avila who didn't understand what in the world could possibly make them happy.
"Why are you two happy?! Yuki, especially you who's going to die soon because you disrespected Arthur, what could be so magnificent that it had you smiling," Avila scolded Yuki.
"It's okay, don't worry about it Avila, Yuki isn't going to die any time soon," Scar said as he tried to calm her down.
"'Don't worry'?! You saw what was happening there. If it wasn't for Arthur's unexpected heart attack, he would've been killed. And what's even worse is that once Arthur recovers, he's going to come after him!" Avila yelled at both of them.
"Just trust me on this, nothing is going to happen to either of us," said Scar, to which Yuki just nodded in agreement.
"You know, I don't understand the two of you. You're so strong and smart when it comes to dungeons but the moment you have to interact with another human being, you turn into idiots. I mean how hard would it have been to bow to someone. Even if you didn't mean it, as long as you bow, you can get away without having to cause any harm to your body," Avila explained.
"Okay fine, we'll keep that in mind next time. Right now though, we need to find a place which we can rent since we'll be living in this kingdom for a while," said Scar as he began to already plan his peaceful life in the kingdom where all the strong gather.

After looking around for nearly an hour, the 3 of them simultaneously saw a sign which said "for rent". Without a second wasted, the 3 of them rushed towards the house which was offering rentable houses. Unlike the prison kingdom which Yuki had spent some time in, there weren't any houses which he could take over for free in this kingdom.
Once they reached the house which had the "for rent" sign placed at the window, they saw an old lady sitting behind a table as she looked to be awaiting something. Scar wanted to get the house as quickly as possible so he went to talk to the old lady in hopes that she would know where the owner of the house was so that they could speak to them about the rent. As expected, Yuki and Avila followed behind Scar
"Excuse me ma'am but do you know who owns this house? Me and my friends were hoping to be able to rent the place out," Scar asked the old woman.
"Well, you're looking at her. I'm the owner of the house. And are you serious about wanting to rent this place or are you some kids looking to start trouble?" the old woman asked as he inspected the 3 of them.
"Yes, but I'll be taking care of the financial part. How much are you looking for?" Scar asked the woman.
"Well, I want to rent the place out for a hundred thousand silver a month but it seems like almost no one is willing to pay that much so since you look like such a lovely bunch, I'll rent the entire house to you for only eighty thousand silver a month," the old lady said as she made a gentle face which made Avila totally trust her. As for Yuki, he was neutral but Scar had other thoughts.
"Make it eight thousand a month or no deal," Scar said as he looked at the woman with a smirk.
"What?! You've got to be insane if I would divide the money I'm asking for by 10!" the woman complained and Avila agreed with her.
"Give it up old hag. You know that the real value of your home is at best four thousand silver a month. Giving you eight thousand is a bit generous on my part since it's double what you were hoping for. You know that no one else who's a high level player would even bother to look at your home which was why you aimed too high when you saw us in hopes that we would ask to divide the prince in half and pay forty thousand a month meaning that you would make 10 times what you would usually make. Someone as old as you shouldn't be so greedy," said Scar as he deconstructed the old woman's plan which shocked both Avila and the old woman. As for Yuki, he wasn't even listening to the conversation but was instead looking at other things happening around him.

"But how did you know?!" the old woman complained.
"It was unfortunate that I had changed my ability to be that which can read minds, unfortunately for you, you had to come across me. Anyway, I assume you'll be taking the deal?" Scar asked the old woman, who just nodded in agreement and shame.
Once Scar finished signing some papers and gave an upfront payment, the old woman handed him the house keys and placed the table in her inventory before going off into the distance.
"Wow, your ability came in really handy," said Avila who had been a sucker for the false lie which the old woman had presented.
"I mean what can I say, I'm just too amazing," said Scar as he smiled from the compliment as he opened the house doors and began to explore the place. After picking a room each, Aliva headed off to the bathroom to take a shower while Scar and Yuki took care of some other things.
After looking around some more, Yuki and Scar went inside one of the rooms which was empty and sat on the ground as they awaited for Avila to finish so that they could go shopping for furniture. However, getting bored of waiting for her, the two began to talk.
"So what was that all about?" Scar asked.
"What do you mean by that?" Yuki replied.
"What happened to not having any pride and doing whatever it took to get you to your goal? Was that just some lie you made up?" Scar asked calmly.
"I guess it was," Yuki replied.
"Of course not. It's good that I can read your mind. You only pretended to have pride because if you didn't, Arthur would've died there. I mean, you had the ability to stop his heart so you could've killed him at any time. You only pretended to have pride so that he would continue to live. The only question which remains is why?" Scar asked.
"I don't know myself, it just felt wrong to kill him. I guess it would just cause more harm to me than good so I chose not to kill him. I mean if this entire place crumbles, we would have to find another place to stay at," Yuki said to Scar.
"But it's not like we're not used to sleeping on the solid grounds of dungeons. Me and you both have done that. The only exception is Avila. Were you thinking about how she would be affected by the actions you took?" Scar asked which brought Yuki to sigh.
"I might not have the ability which you have right now but I can still tell why you're asking all these questions. You're trying to get to me and convince me to become a good person. Look Scar, I'm neither good nor evil. I'm just who I am. I'm Yuki. You can judge my actions to be good or bad but it doesn't mean that I see them that way. All the actions I take are done because I either need to or want to. It doesn't have to do anything with morality," said Yuki with a wise expression on his face.
"Well, that was a cool way of dodging a question. Anyway, it's nice to see that you no longer hate Avila. She seems like a pretty nice person," said Scar as he gave up on breaking Yuki's thought process for the time being.
"'Nice'?! She gave me hell for no reason when I was in the kingdom but after my clone was over, it seems like she's changed. So I guess she's not bad to have around but you better make sure you train her so that others don't use her to manipulate us," Yuki ordered.
The entire time, Avila was on the other side of the wall listening to their conversation.
