My King System
Chapter 154 - Resentment

"One, Switch!" Yuki said in desperation as it was the only way he could escape out of that situation. There was most likely no other way for Yuki to win that fight other than to call on Zero or One. Calling on Zero would've been too suspicious so Yuki opted for One. While he and One were the same being, One had the ability to amplify Yuki's emotions in turn increasing the potency of his presence.

A person's presence wasn't that impressive as it correlated with their strength. However, emotions also played a minor role in it as well. Due to the fact that One could amplify Yuki's emotions to such an extent where Yuki could over power someone who was a level 2 player was exactly the thing he needed. If a person's presence were to be turned into numbers and just for the scenario, Yuki's presence were to be 1 while his opponents were to be 100 due to Yuki being a level 1 player and his opponent being a level 2 which accounts for the huge strength gap between them, One would help multiply Yuki's presence using an emotions. As such, Yuki's presence was adjustable. In this scenario, a presence of 1000 would be enough. Of course this is all hypothetical and a person's emotions and presence aren't quantifiable. 

"All that I need to do is knock him out right? It shouldn't take too much effort," One said as he glared back at the level 2 player which Yuki had been facing earlier. In doing this, One made the level 2 player fall on his knees out of pure fear. He could sense that there was clearly something evil and menacing about Yuki. He was like a rabbit which was in a death battle against a bloodthirsty tiger. Of course, once his mission was complete, One switched back with Yuki. 

"What was that? What are you hiding? I know that you're not that weak, so why did you let me hit you?" the level 2 player asked. 

To be frank, his attack landed just on the pure fact that at that moment, Yuki was weaker than his opponent and still was. One was a multiplier to Yuki's presence which was what had caused his opponent to back off. While all this stood to be true, Yuki didn't say a word as he didn't want to lose advantage of the battle. 

"I let you hit me to show you that you're not the strongest one around," Yuki lied. 

"I sound like a douche bag which comes and teaches people a lesson in the name of justice. I'll have to get through this though so I can't complain," Yuki told himself as he continued his speech. 

"Now that you understand the difference in our strengths, I have a question for you. How long has his kingdom been closed off?" Yuki asked as he wanted to test out his hypothesis. 

"That's fine. I'll answer all your questions. Just don't attack me or my colleagues," the man replied. By this point, the original grown man who had tried to rob Yuki had managed to put out the flames from Yuki's ability and was now watching the conversation between Yuki and his comrade. That was the same thing which the 3rd of the trio was doing as well. Even though this was going on, no one bothered to stop and watch. That confirmed that these types of occurrences had been happening for a while and no one did anything about them. 

"When did this place close itself out from the rest of the world?" Yuki asked. 

"Around 7 months ago I think," the man answered. 

"So that really does confirm it. They've been planning to have me imprisoned here right after my battle with the 3 kingdoms. They had made sure that their plan couldn't be ruined by a single thing. For a whole 7 months, this place had been prepared and ready for me like a pet being welcomed to its new home. Whenever I get back to the level of strength I had over everyone once again, I'll make sure to humiliate them just as they had done so to me," Yuki said to himself. 

"Wait... to make it even worse, could they have chosen this specific kingdom due to its violent tendencies? Out of every other kingdom, they specifically chose this one not because they care for the safety of humanity because these people are human just like all others but because they wanted me to suffer by being surrounded by people who had the intentions to harm me and could do so due to my level being lowered back to 1. This just gives me more of a reason to hunt them down like the rats they are," Yuki said to himself as his face began to fume but was instantly reversed as he realized that he couldn't allow himself to get distracted any longer. 

"Okay thanks," Yuki said as he extracted 1000 silver and handed it to the people who were trying to rob him. 

"Just take this and leave me alone from now on. I don't want bad blood to remain between us. I already forgive you for trying to rob me so please take this pouch and forgive me for hurting you," Yuki said as he handed the level 2 player of the group the money. 

Yuki didn't care about being friends with the people who had just tried to steal from him. The only reason he gave them that money and asked them to forgive him was in case someone who was stronger than them came after him and were to kill him before he could even call for One let alone Zero. It would be a large hindrance for him, as such, it was worth it for him to pay such a small amount of money for him to not worry about people coming after him on a daily basis. 

As Yuki walked away from the scene, the people who had attempted to rob Yuki just sat there as they watched him walk away like nothing had happened before they themselves managed to get up and walk away in a different direction as well.
