I Am the Ruler of All

Liam sneered, "Right under everyone's noses? Ask everyone if they have the same thoughts as me!"

He was a rather influential figure in the field of western medicine, so when he said that, a few people instantly agreed with him, saying, "Yeah, I think this chap just got real lucky! He isn't capable of such a thing!"

"Exactly! How can anyone cure a person in a vegetative state on the spot? That's just ridiculous!?"

Alice was so furious that her face flushed brightly when she heard everyone's comments and spat, "Bah! All of you are so shameless!"

"Don't be mad, Alice." Then, Kingsley smiled and responded, "Since they're being so shameless, then we'll shut their mouths." After that, he drew out another long silver needle and said to Mateo, "Since you're so keen to seek trouble, I'll go along with your wishes!"

Mateo couldn't help but shiver and quiver as he gawked at the silver needle between Kingsley's fingers, "W-What do you mean? What do you mean you're going along with my wishes?"

Kingsley ignored him as he swept his gaze over everyone at the scene and said in a cold voice, "You said that I just got lucky, so I'll try my luck again! All of you better not blink, or you'll just come up with excuses again!"

Right after he said that, he struck with his silver needle again even before Mateo could react, and it hit him steadily right between his brows.

"Wait—Ugh!" Before Mateo could finish his sentence, he fell to the floor with a loud thud again.

Everyone including Liam were dumbstruck and speechless and Kingsley continued, "Professor Clayton, check carefully this time to see whether he's in a vegetative state."

Kingsley's icy cold voice sent a shiver down Liam's spine, and he had goosebumps all over his skin. Is he a f*cking human or the devil?! How could he turn Mateo into a vegetable because of an argument?! Liam thought.

And the most frightening part was that Kingsley could actually do what he said! With just a wave of his hand, he could turn a live person into an unconscious patient.

Scared out of his wits, Liam stammered, "Y-Yes, he's in a vegetative state…"

"Okay, keep your eyes peeled, everyone!" Kingsley snorted as he applied the acupuncture treatment on Mateo once more.

Ten minutes later.

"Ugh… What happened earlier?"

Again, Mateo regained consciousness, and just as before, the same scene unfolded right in front of everyone's eyes again.

However, everyone wasn't shocked anymore this time. Instead, they were filled with fear! I-Is he still a human? they wondered. He could easily turn a person into a vegetable and bring him back to life at will. Even the revival of Jesus isn't as shocking as this!

Kingsley looked around, keeping away his silver needles, and asked loudly, "Now, are you going to say that I became lucky again?"

As far as he could see, everyone had lowered their heads in fear, and nobody had the guts to meet his eyes!

"What's wrong? Who am I? And where am I?" Mateo stood in a daze for a long while before finally gradually regaining his consciousness. He stumbled to Liam, sputtering in fear, "P-Professor Clayton, it felt as though I was dreaming earlier… D-Did he turn me into a vegetable again?"

Silently, Liam nodded and didn't say a thing. At that moment, he was drenched in cold sweat, and his legs shook like a leaf in the wind.

For more than forty years, he had practiced medicine, and this was the first time he saw something so unbelievable!

"Do you have anything else to say, Professor Clayton?" A composed Kingsley cast his gaze on him. "Can you come up with other excuses?"

"I-I…" He moved his parched lips to find something to say and finally came up with a reply, "I just want to know how you're able to do all this…"
