Bab 1506: Escalate

Rui heaved a sigh as he stepped forward to Senior Zenshin's body, having consumed several rejuvenation potions.

"Rgh…" The man beaten-down man stirred, waking up from being knocked out. He opened his eyes, dazed, turning to Rui who stood beside his body.

Normally, Rui killed his victims when they were unconscious, but this one had managed to wake up.

"…Any last words?" Rui asked in the Kandrian language. 

The man's eyes widened, narrowing. "You bastard… You're from the Kandrian Empire, not the Republic of Gorteau."

"That unsubstantiated confidence is precisely the reason you're in this situation, among others," Rui replied.

"Why do this? Who sent you? Was it the Aggragor Syndicate? Any of the other mafias?"

Rui didn't respond, having simply activated his Martial Heart, ready to kick at the man's head and put him to rest.
