The Supreme Man: Took Everything in Power

Chapter 702 Realization

After hearing Lancer's words, Kingsley also felt his heart skip a beat.

Xaria Heart! It's that woman who has always made me feel uncomfortable!

He never quite figured out what it was about her that made him uneasy, but he finally came to realize now—it was because she was from the Empire of the Setting Sun!

Even though she spoke without any accent, her behavior still was still laced with the habits of a Sweoyan.

She must have felt out of place for him because he had assumed she was Qustian.

And most importantly, she knew Andrew.

Her claim of being Andrew's senior from high school must have been a lie.

Andrew admitted that she was his senior, but he never specified whether it was from high school or college.

Thinking about it now, Xaria probably also studied under Boris.

That was why Andrew used the term "senior" ambiguously to explain their relationship.

With these thoughts flashing through his mind, Kingsley had already figured out most of the situation.

"It seems that Xaria Heart is Stork, the leader of Team Nightcrawler." Kingsley couldn't help but feel excited.

"All the dots connect in that case!" Lancer was also elated.

Their espionage operation had been stagnant for a long time.

With this breakthrough, they would definitely make significant progress.

"Kenny, I'm bringing someone with me to catch Stork now!" Lancer clenched his fists and insisted, "She definitely knows tons of inside information. If we capture her and interrogate her properly, we should be able to find out a lot."

Kingsley stopped in his tracks. "No, we can't catch her now."

"Why not?"

"All those spies have gone into hiding since Boris' disappearance. And Stork's position in the Empire of the Setting Sun is obviously much higher than Boris'." Kingsley pondered out loud, "If she is captured, those spies will definitely spare no effort to search for her and rescue her. Their disruptive actions will undoubtedly be postponed again."

Hearing that, Lancer asked, "Are you suggesting... we secretly monitor her and wait for them to make a big move before we launch an all-out attack and capture them altogether?"

"Exactly!" Kingsley squinted his eyes slightly. "We don't know how many people the Empire of the Setting Sun has sent this time. Even if Stork fesses up, we still have to capture them one by one!

"Instead of going through all that trouble, it's better to wait for them to gather and then take them all down in one fell swoop!"

Lancer had absolute trust in Kingsley. Upon hearing his plan, he immediately agreed. "Alright, let's do as you say, Ares! Then... I'll have Kenny's men withdraw for now."

"That'd be great." Kingsley nodded. "We can't let them stay in Jeanne Gang's territory forever—"

As he was speaking, he came to an abrupt stop.

He suddenly remembered that Xaria seemed to have a very close relationship with Victoria.

Does she… want to hurt Victoria?!

Kingsley shook his head as soon as that thought came to mind.

He and Victoria's relationship wasn't known to the public.

Furthermore, Xaria wasn't aware of his military background. She had no reason to cause Victoria any harm.

Kingsley's eyes flickered then. It seemed that the problem lay in ancient healing.

Xaria coveted the ancient healing of the Empire of Qustia. She wanted him to teach ancient healing to the people of the Empire of the Setting Sun.

She probably wanted to establish a good relationship with him through Victoria.

When Kingsley came to realize, a cold smile appeared on his face, and he thought to himself, You want to get closer to me, don't you?

I'll make your wish come true so that you stop bothering Victoria!

Seeing that Kingsley's expression was off, Lancer quickly asked, "Ares? Have you thought of something?"

"It's nothing." Kingsley waved, "Please bring me two needles. I'll deal with Boris first."Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
