Chapter 157


    Leoric gulped. “Um, Mr. Nicholson, you probably don’t know our boss much. She’s a—”“Leoric! Watch


    your tongue!” Baron stopped him before he could finish. Everyone knew Victoria was a madwoman,


    and she was cruel and extreme. Everyone in the underworld of Cleapolis knew that, but Leoric must


    not say that to Kingsley. That’s his sister. I don’t want Leoric getting on his bad side because of


    this.Kingsley raised his hand and smiled. “It’s alright. You were going to say she’s as fierce and


    terrifying as a tigress, weren’t you?”“How did you know what I was gonna say?” Leoric blurted out, but


    then he realized what he just said and covered his mouth. His face was white, and he waved his hands


    around frantically. “That’s not what I mean. Our boss is a gentledy…”“It’s alright.” Kingsley smiled. “I


    know the kind of woman she is.” Victoria was only about eight years old back then, but she was already


    the biggest bully around. The kids called her ‘boss’ because she forced them to, and she also made


    sure they gave her sweets and snacks from time to time. Of course, Kingsley was the one who had


    most of the snacks. Victoria would always pat his shoulder and say proudly, “Kingsley, just tell me if you


    have any cravings. I’ll ask myckeys to send them over!”Because of that, parents woulde to the


    orphanage with their crying kids andin to Joseph about what Victoria did. A leopard never


    changed its spots. Kingsley could see that Victoria was still as bossy as ever, or she would never have


    be one of the Seven Legends. A gentle smile curled his lips, and he said, “You’ll handle this


    vige now. Tell your boss I’ll see her soon.”“Of course, sir.” Leoric wiped the sweat off his head. “I’ll


    make sure I tell her that. Do you need anything else, sir?”Kingsley looked at the time. “I’m here to look


    for a Sweoyan. Do you know anything about that?” It was already noon. If a local like Leoric had no


    clues, he would have to ask Baron’s men to keep looking. “A Sweoyan?” Leoric frowned and went


    through his memories. “Now that you mentioned it, I do know something. After Kenzo, that b*stard,


    kicked us out of Crimson Hall, we rented a ce in Upstream Vige, and there were two guys living


    next door. I am sure they ain’t the locals, and I overheard their conversation a few times. Thenguage


    sounds like the ones I hear in anime. I bet they’re Sweoyans.”Kingsley’s eyes shone. “That’s them, I


    bet!”“They rented a ce too, and under the samendlord. Want me to call thendlord over and findContent is ? by N?velDrama.Org.


    out more?”“Sure.” Kingsley nodded. “First, I want to know how many of them are there. The more intel I


    have, the better I can n.”Leoric took his phone out and called hisndlord.Baron huddled closer and


    asked, “What about us, boss? Should wee with you?”“No,” Kingsley said. “I called you guys here


    to search for them. Now that I have a lead, I’d prefer moving in a small team. I don’t want to alert them.


    Your mission is over. Just handle Kenzo and hisckeys.”“I’ll make sure they get the special treatment,”


    Baron said, then took his men and left right away. The guy did not want toe in the first ce. Now


    that Kingsley had permitted him to leave, he took that chance and scurried away.At this moment, Leoric


    had ended the call. He came back to Kingsley and said, “Thendlord will be here in about fifteen


    minutes, sir.”Yvonne chimed in, “You guys shoulde in and wait. I’ll get some water for you.”“Sure.”


    Kingsley nodded. “I’d like to see if I can heal your father.”Yvonne’s eyes widened in surprise. “Y-You’re


    a doctor?”“I know a bit of the ancient healing methods,” Kingsley said humbly. “If your father’s spine


    isn’t too badly hurt, he can still regain the ability to stand and walk.”“R-Really?” Yvonne’s face was red


    with excitement, and the worship in her eyes was almost palpable. “A-Are you a god, mister?”
