I Am the Ruler of All

The loud thudding of their knees rippled through the air.
Everyone's jaw dropped when they saw the scene in front of them.
No one would have expected that Baron Howe, one of the Seven Legends, would actually kneel in front of Kingsley!
Even Louie was dumbstruck!
He was absolutely shell shocked as he stood still with a look of disbelief on his face.
Louie had not even noticed that Kingsley had released his arm.
He was frozen with his fist raised in the air like a madman.
In fact, there was a lot that Louie was unaware of. After leaving William's funeral service that day, Baron had reached out to
Kenny Shane at once.
He had paid nearly five thousand to wine and dine Kenny before Kenny finally let him in on a little secret.
"Kingsley Nicholson is not someone you want to mess with. He has the Tanner family's Northern Draken Tag!"
The moment Baron heard the words 'Northern Draken Tag', he felt like he was about to get a heart attack.
He had to down three shots of alcohol before he finally stopped trembling.
After knowing that, Baron convinced himself that as long as he was on his guard, he would never run into Kingsley again.
Who would have thought that he would stumble right onto Kingsley's warpath today?
Earlier on, Baron had heard a ruckus outside and sent Wendell to go and take a look.

When Wendell came back in fright and told him that the devil from William's funeral service was outside, Baron felt like his head
was about to explode!
He knew that Wendell was a loose cannon, and he undoubtedly would have offended Kingsley.
Immediately, he smacked all of his men awake and brought them over to Kingsley to apologize, which led to the scene right now.
Baron remained kneeling on the ground and his voice trembled as he spoke. "M-Mr. Nicholson, if my subordinate has offended
you in any way, I beg you to please let him off just this once..."
Then, he grabbed Wendell by his collar and hissed, "Hurry up and apologize to Mr. Nicholson!"
Wendell was on the verge of tears. "Boss, I didn't say anything disrespectful at all... All I did was slap Scarface Louie a few
times..."
"Scarface Louie?"
Only then did Baron notice Louie, who looked like the Statue of Liberty as he stood there with his arm raised. He was frozen in
shock.
Baron queried incredulously, "Mr. Nicholson, is... is Scarface Louie one of your men?"
"No," Kingsley stated coolly. "He's someone who wants to bash my head in."
"W-What?!"
Baron's eyes nearly popped out of their sockets when he heard that.
Bash Kingsley's head in?! Does he have a f*cking death wish?!
"Scarface Louie! What the f*ck is going on?"

Baron's roar managed to snap Louie out of his daze!
"M-Mr. Howe..."
All color drained from Louie's face, and even the alarming scars on his face no longer seemed quite so terrifying.
Louie's knees were trembling violently.
In their world, seniority was unshakeable.
And Louie's boss, Terry 'Tiger' Wharton, was a subordinate of one of Baron's men.
This meant that Louie himself was nothing but an inconsequential foot soldier!
In fact, Louie had turned pale with fear when he saw Baron kneeling obediently in front of Kingsley!
"Mr... Mr. Howe... that punk just now... No, I mean this boss offended Mr. Church earlier..."
As soon as Louie said that, his expression shifted and it looked like he had found a lifeline. All at once, he pointed at Zayne and
declared, "It's him! It's all because of him! He was the one who offended Mr. Nicholson! I was just trying to do my job!"
By now, Zayne was also scared stiff!
When he heard Louie pinning the whole thing on him, he felt a stabbing pain in his abdomen and nearly shat his pants!
Kingsley gave Zayne a baleful look before saying to Louie, "He won't be getting away with it, but neither will you. What did I say
to you just now?"
"I... I..."
Louie's mind was blank, and he had a lost expression on his face.

"Let me remind you then," Kingsley drawled. "I gave you one last chance to kneel in front of Professor Gershwin and apologize!"
When Louie heard that, he did not hesitate at all!
With a loud thud, he fell right down to his knees in front of Alan!
Grabbing Alan's legs, Louie cried, "I'm so sorry, Professor Gershwin! I shouldn't have spoken so rudely to you, and I shouldn't
have tried to hit you! Please forgive me!"
