I Am the Ruler of All

With his legs jiggling like a jello, Zwander stuttered, "Red, I've seen Frederick's handgun. I-it's much poorer than t-this. T-This should be real."

When Scarlett heard that, her face turned even ghastly pale. Frederick Malfoy! He's the top thug who works for Boss Norton! If Frederick's handgun is more poorly made than the gun in front of me, then this gun must be a real deal!

"Red, what should we do—" Zwander paused for a while, and the tone in his voice changed a little. "We seem to have run into trouble."

Taking a deep breath, she then looked at Kingsley. "Buddy, how shall we address you?"

"Nicholson."

"Mr. Nicholson, a-are you someone from the police department?"

In her perspective, there were only two groups of people in this world who would bring a gun with them. They were either police officers or gang leaders.

Looking at Kingsley's extremely youthful and handsome look, Scarlett subconsciously thought he was a young police officer who works in a police department.

Without waiting for Kingsley to answer her, she continued, "Officer Nicholson, you're not a local of Diosna City, so you may not know that this part of Sunshine Casino is under Boss Norton's supervision and protection. Y-You'd better not cause trouble in his territory."

"Trouble? What trouble have I caused?" Kingsley asked, feeling speechless. Then, he added again, "You guys were the one who came up with this badger game. Now you guys are accusing me of causing trouble instead?"

"What I meant was Boss Norton had paid a visit to the Diosna City Police Department and personally informed the sergeant regarding all businesses in this part of the city."

As she spoke, there was a change in expression on Scarlett's face. Shortly after, she secretly threatened, "You say you want to deal with Boss Norton, but he isn't someone who you can so easily deal with. He has connections in the police department too. We admit that we're unlucky to have stumbled upon you today, but don't you think of throwing us to the wolves!"

After hearing that, Kingsley raised his eyebrows. "Oh? Does Xanxus truly think he has become the ultimate king of the underland in Diosna City that no one can touch his territory?"

At once, there was a slight change in Scarlett's expression. "What do you mean by that?"

"As far as I know, Jarett is also here in Diosna City." Kingsley raised a corner of his mouth. "Xanxus only occupies the southern suburb of Diosna City, yet you guys are acting so rampant?!"

When Scarlett and those brawny men heard his words, they were all shocked.

"Y-you're not an officer from the police department?" She took a step back. "Do you work for Jarett?! Are you here to wreck this place?!"

At this moment, a trace of ruthlessness flashed across Zwander's eyes. He whispered to Scarlett, "Red, this kid is here to create havoc regardless of who he is. How about we… we might as well directly—"

As he spoke, he made a throat slitting gesture with his hand.

Presently, the fear in him was so overwhelming that he decided to go all out.

Similarly, there was also a trace of ruthlessness in Scarlett's eyes. No matter what, I can't be at peace and sleep well if I let a man with a gun roaming around freely in my own territory. We might as well follow Zwander's suggestion and just kill him! The gun is now in my hand anyway.

With a trembling voice, Scarlett asked Zwander, "You've been around Frederick for a while, so you should know how to fire a gun, right?"

"I know! I know! Although I never fired one personally, I do have a little knowledge about it."

Despite saying that, Zwander's palms were actually sweaty. Holding the gun, he muttered, "The first step in firing a gun is… safety off, safety off."
