I Am the Ruler of All

Chapter 163
They were shuddering so fiercely, it looked like they were having an episode of fits. They heard what Hades and that soldier called Kingsley. Ares. There was only one man in Qustia who had that name, and he was the fearsome God of War. He was a terrifying existence that struck fear into the hearts of the Sweoyan Empire’s warriors. They looked at each other, and what they saw was despair in each other’s eyes. Ares is in the fray? The empire has lost.
While they were contemplating their fates, three helicopters had landed on the clearing beside them. The support team had arrived. At the same time, a dozen jeeps were closing in as well, and clouds of dust billowed behind them. Four Coliree Island warriors dragged Jonas and Karl into the choppers, while everyone else hopped into the jeeps and left.
Kingsley looked at Hades. “Contact The Anonymous ASAP, and tell me everything about the interrogation once you’re done.”
“Yes, sir!” Hades answered and hopped into the helicopter, leaving with his soldiers.
When the dust had settled and everyone had left, Kingsley went over to Leoric’s place. He knocked on the door. “It’s me, Kingsley.”

Sounds of hurried footsteps approached the door, and Leoric opened it a moment later. He looked outside, an expression of fear etched on his face. He quickly told Kingsley to come in. Aside from Yvonne, there were three other men in the house, and all of them were bandaged. They were all Leoric’s men who were previously injured by Kenzo and his men.
The men were huddled together, looking fearful. What happened outside was akin to a shootout, so of course they would be terrified.
Leoric asked Kingsley to take a seat. He then gulped and asked with a trembling voice, “M-Mr. Nicholson, w-was that a shootout? I think I heard something explode too.”
“That was the tear gas,” Kingsley said. “We did shoot a little, but I sustained no casualties.”
“T-Tear gas?” Everyone gasped, and their hearts raced. It was not even a skirmish for Kingsley, but it was a different story for Leoric and everyone else. They would usually only fight with bats in the gang wars. Knives and sharp weapons were rarely used too. And Mr. Nicholson throws tear gas grenades and carries guns around like they’re nothing? Holy smokes. Leoric was starting to shiver. Who is he? Not even Jarett can fight on this scale.
Kingsley saw through them, and he smiled. “My identity and what happened tonight is a secret. Don’t say a word to anyone, understand?” He was just trying to remind Leoric and everyone to keep a secret, so Kingsley sounded friendly.
Much to his surprise, Leoric and his men knelt before him right away.
“W-We won’t say a word, Mr. Nicholson! Never!”
“I didn’t see anything! I have no idea what happened!”
