I Am the Ruler of All! Chapter 97

“Heavens!”

“Noah, are you okay?”

The guests all rose to their feet to check on Noah when they saw the blood seeping through his fingers.

At once, Emory slammed a fist against the table as he snapped at Kingsley, “What the hell? Who gave you the right to beat one of us up? Don’t you know we’re all trained in close-quarters combat?!”

He rolled up his sleeves and made to lunge at Kingsley, but at that moment, Serena stood up angrily to shield the latter, then warned murderously, “You’ll have to go through me, Emory.” She eyed the others icily. “Come on, then, let’s see which ones of you will walk out of here alive after I’m done!”

The Two Muses of the dōjō were not just known for their stunning beauty back in the day; they were also the two strongest martial artists among everyone. While Emory was by no means weak, it had been years since he last practiced martial arts, and on top of the fact that his joints were stiff, he had more body fat than muscle.

As things were, he wasn’t sure if he could beat Serena in a fight.

Upon sensing his hesitation, Serena challenged in a sing-song voice, “Is somebody chicken?”

The others in their well-pressed suits and their so-called successful careers started to wince in embarrassment when they heard the taunting edge to her tone.

Just as the tension between both parties was escalating, the door to the private dining room was pushed open, and in strolled a woman clad in a pink dress that perfectly accentuated her curves, her stiletto heels clacking against the floor to announce her arrival.

“The other Muse is here!”

“Well, if it isn’t the princess herself! Let’s give her a warm round of applause!”

Everyone behaved as though they were looking at their savior as they clapped their hands to welcome the woman.

It was only then that Emory let out a small breath of relief and slowly resumed his seat. He would be lying if he said he hadn’t broken into cold sweat when he saw the mutinous gleam in Serena’s eyes earlier.
