After seeing the crowd’s gaze turn from admiration to disdain, Kora was boiling with anger.“What do you want, Harvey?!” she exclaimed while gritting her teeth.“Simple.“There are two choices for you.“Number one. Be my lackey according to the contract.“Number two. Pay a hundred and fifty million dollars as compensation for the stone gambling site, then tell me who sent you here in the first place.“If you come clean, you may leave.”Kora felt a cold chill. She did not expect Harvey to have everything figured out already.Even then, she instinctively shivered after imagining the person who ordered her here.“What do you mean by that?“I only came here to play!“I’m willing to admit defeat!“I’ll come with you!“I do want to see what you’d do to me!“If you even taint my innocence, my school will never let you go!”Harvey merely smiled.“Don’t worry. I’m interested in neither you nor your innocence.“Kade, call Castiel Foster.“Bring her back to clean the toilets.“
Right when Harvey York was about to handle the customers at once, a loud clamoring was heard.The customers were shoved aside before a group of men in dark green suits walked past them.They all had fierce looks, their heads raised high, and it was clear that they were not ordinary people.The group leader was a man with golden-rimmed glasses, pale skin, and narrow eyes, who gave the people around him a vicious feeling.He stoically came in front of everyone.Castiel Foster and the others stepped forward.“Who are you people? What’s the problem?”The man smiled.“Is this the Fortune Hall?”“That’s right. What of it?” Castiel responded.The man kicked Castiel to the ground before pulling a chair and sat down.“That’s good!“There should be a man named Harvey York here!“Get him out of here right now!”“Watch your damn mouth!”Kellan Ruiz was just keeping someone’s money when he stood with a gloomy look.“This isn’t a place for you to screw around!”“So what if I’m screw
“I’m still in a good mood right now.“Though, I’ll get angry very soon.“Don’t blame me if corpses pile up here after this!”Miles Keaton smiled faintly as he casually pulled out a butterfly knife and started picking his fingernails.“I’m Harvey York.Harvey finally stood before glancing calmly at Miles.“Why have you come all the way here for me, if I may ask?”Miles curiously sized up Harvey before chuckling.“You’re the legendary Representative York?”“Not quite the legend, though.“I’m just an ordinary representative.”Miles frowned and waved his hand.One of his subordinates stepped up and slammed a check on the table.Harvey casually glanced at the check. A hundred and fifty thousand dollars was written on it.“Here’s a hundred and fifty thousand, Representative York. Consider it a gift for my first visit. Please, accept it.”“I don’t need the money,” replied Harvey.“How dare you! It has Young Master Miles’ signature on it!“Do you know what this means?!“This
“And if I refuse?”“Refuse?Miles Keaton smiled while squinting.“Nobody has ever refused me before my entire life.“I don’t know what’ll happen anyway…“But you can try.”“You’re still threatening me even after knowing I’m Representative York?”“That’s right.“I know that you killed Layton Surrey. I know you rivaled an entire country on your own back in Flutwell.“But this doesn’t mean you’re completely invincible. You know that yourself.“The people of sacred martial arts training grounds can easily tell that you’re a God of War.“But I’m not afraid to tell you something.“Gods of War are impressive to us, but that’s pretty much it.“After all, there’s still a long road to take as a God of War.“Only when you’re at your peak, you’d be considered invincible.”Harvey squinted.“You’re not telling me you’re there now, are you?”Miles heaved a sigh.“Of course not.“After all, the Council of Myth specializes in hidden weapons, not martial arts.“That said, I can let y
Miles Keaton’s face turned dark after hearing Harvey York’s words.“Repeat that one more time!”Harvey pointed at a blackboard.“You still don’t understand? Everything’s written over there.“Emergency hire for janitors; five hundred dollars per month.“The salary isn’t bad, right?”Fwoosh!Miles looked horrible before he threw a shot put toward Harvey.Harvey squinted before flinging his jacket forward, covering the shot put.Bam!The shot put blew up in the Fortune Hall when a foul liquid splattered all over the place. Not only was Harvey’s jacket completely corroded, but some of the bricks were also melted off.Castiel Foster and the others quickly changed expressions. There would be dire consequences if something like this were to explode before the crowd.“You’re using something like this while disregarding everyone else’s safety?“Does the Council of Myth not have rules?”Harvey glared coldly.“The only rules I follow in the Council of Myth is mine!“And my rule is
“You won’t make it harder for me?”Miles Keaton looked as if he had just heard the funniest joke in the universe.“Do you think you have the right even to say that?“You think I’m scared of you just because you managed to sneak up on me?“Let me tell you something!“The Council of Myth has existed for hundreds of years. By now, the Royal Flush has killed Gods of War countless times!“All of them would instantly cower as soon as they heard our weapon’s name!“Do you think a weak God of War like you can even threaten me?! What a joke!Miles chuckled out of rage. His polite appearance was instantly gone.“I’m giving you one more minute! Come with me now, or face the consequences!”After that, Miles made a gesture.One of his subordinates waved their hands before iron sand was dumped at the entrance.The ancient wooden doors were instantly corroded when a foul stench seeped throughout the place.A few customers immediately passed out on the ground with their eyes rolled up as
“I’ll give you three days to consider my offer.“If you don’t comply, then I’m sorry…“I’ll kill off every person that you hold dear, one by one.“I’ll make you completely alone before killing you!“I’ll make you understand just what’ll happen if you disobey me and disrespect my fiancee!”Then, Miles Keaton turned around and left.His subordinates coldly glared at Harvey York before following suit.Harvey calmly observed the sight without taking any action.After all, he needed to keep the people around him safe since Miles was an utterly unreasonable enemy.After Miles and the others left, Harvey tended to some customers on the ground before removing the poison gas inside them.-At the same time, Miles was sitting comfortably in a van when he squinted outside.A woman with black stockings leaned toward him.“How could you just let that man go, Young Master Miles?” she gently asked.“Not only did he insult my lady, he also mocked you.“As long as he lives, my lady must
“You’re finally here, Harvey!”Saul Robbins stood up excitedly before pouring him a cup of tea.“What’s up?Harvey York dived right into the topic.“Did something happen to the company?”Saul shook his head.“The company’s fine. The Golden Garden’s been having a lot of sales too…“But Lola’s in trouble.”Harvey squinted.“What do you mean?”Saul took a deep breath.“Let me tell you everything that happened.“You should know that Lola belongs to the Hoffman family.Harvey gave a slight nod. He naturally knew that.He also had good relations with one of the family’s powerhouses, Mordu’s first-in-command, Benjamin Lynch.“Three days later, the Hoffman family will hold an event here.“The goal is to gather all the Hoffman family and research the family’s business plan for the next ten years.”Harvey frowned.“Why not do that in Holcomb instead? Why here?“Based on the city’s state of affairs, this is inappropriate now, isn’t it?”Saul heaved a sigh.“I’m to blame for t
Night fell by the time Harvey and the others returned to Grand City.Kenta had already left midway. It was obvious that he knew following Harvey and the others was pointless now.In the meantime, before returning to Grand City, Harvey had already instructed Clarion to spread the news of Origin Sword Style's extermination back to Grand City and how Earth Hall was instrumental in its destruction.By the time Clarion returned to Grand City, he was immediately enthusiastically welcomed back home. Initially, many people had an issue with him suddenly becoming the leader of Earth Hall. However, they did not expect Clarion to be able to single-handedly handle one of the main pillars of Sky Plane, the Origin Sword Style school shortly after he led the Earth Hall.While many did not know what actually transpired, Clarion and his team brought Isoroku's body back to Grand City. Taking Isoroku's body back was a great achievement on its own as it also means that Sky Plane's overall power would
Isoroku immediately crumpled on the ground. The arrogant master of the Origin Sword Style suddenly surrendered and killed himself. There was only bitterness and regret on his face, as if regretting why he did not simply stay and train in isolation. That way, he would not meet the person before him… Harvey.However, no matter how much regret he had, he needed to commit suicide.That was because he knew very well that Harvey had revealed to him his true identity. If he refused to die, Harvey would turn around and completely wipe out the Origin Sword Style. Now that he decisively made such a decision, Harvey would not return to Sky Plane.Harvey looked at Isoroku's body. With a smirk, he said, "That's why I don't like others to find out who I really am." Then, Harvey planted his foot on Isoroku's longsword. There was a loud clang, and the longsword instantly shattered. Its fragments fired in all directions.All the Origin Sword Style elites had been eradicated completely.A few minut
Isoroku's blade slashed downward. It was so fast that it was barely visible to the naked eye. However, before it could even touch Harvey's body, Isoroku suddenly saw him raise his right hand and flicked, hitting the blade when it was just starting to get close.Clang!It was an extremely simple move. However, Harvey's flick reached the blade first, and he immediately parried the attack. Isoroku's entire body shuddered, and his heart skipped a beat. He thought he was already victorious, but he was left with a shocked expression.He raised his blade and wanted to attempt another attack, but he could not do anything for a long while. Harvey was simply standing there with a calm expression. The two of them were close to each other, and Harvey looked like he was completely exposed. However, for someone like Isoroku, when someone was completely exposed, it also meant that he was not exposed at all. If he was not exposed, his blade could not slash downward at him anymore."You… You must h
"The joy's of youth," said Isoroku with a sigh of admiration. "To be young means to be fearless. It also means that there is no respect, and there is ignorance just how difficult it is for something to be overcome. When I'm in a good and chatty mood, you're attempting to anger me. You think that it's your power that makes me pause when I'm the one who's bestowing you this opportunity. You're simply too naive."Harvey calmly replied, "So you want to use your age to force me to respect you. Don't you understand that it's always out with the old and in with the new? If you don't, you'll really get thrown out one day."While the two of them were calmly exchanging words, the truth was from the moment they met each other, they were already clashing against each other. "Looks like there's nothing more to say."Isoroku sighed and slowly pointed the edge of his blade at Harvey. "I will now kill everyone close to you first before slicing your limbs. I'll make you die as you scream in pain."
Harvey was already making quite a concession. When he left with Sora, he was already prepared to kill him once he had arrived at his destination. But since Isoroku came knocking, he did not mind giving Sora up since he was not that important anyway."You're so confident, Harvey. So full of vigor. However, you forgot that in this condition, you're not in a place to negotiate," said Isoroku coldly. "Even if someone's going to come up with the conditions, that person will be me."Let's see now… Release that disappointing son of mine, and then leave your woman behind. Then, you will personally maim the limbs of your own men and then yourself. Only then will I allow you to leave on your knees. How does that sound?" It was clear Isoroku thought little of Harvey in the end."I'm not in the business of making life difficult for unimportant people like you. But since the Origin Sword Style has lost so many people, I need to get something back for them as their Predecessor, correct?"Then, H
"I've already heard your name even before you step foot in Grand City. That's because the Six Schools are all connected to the Origin Sword Style. By defeating all Six Schools alone, you have disrespected me," explained Isoroku, as if he was in the mood for a chat."What's more, you even killed my beloved student Sverker and even took down my worthless son? If it isn't because my source is very well trusted, I couldn't even believe it. For you to reach this level of power at this age, it's beyond amazing. Perhaps it's true when they say that the youths should never be underestimated!" Isoroku said with a sigh of admiration.Dozens of elites stepped out from the other military helicopters. They were probably Isoroku's personal students. All of them looked at Harvey with suspicion and shock. All of them knew how powerful Sverker was, that was why they found it even harder to believe that Harvey could defeat Sverker.Even if they put Sverker's defeat on one side, Sora was accompanied b
The opposing force got out of the helicopters after they landed, armed with weapons. Some were melee weapons, some were firearms, and they looked high and mighty all the way.Kenta had no choice but to step up. He raised his hand and yelled, "I'm from Fujihara…"But before he could even finish, someone from the other side had already pulled the trigger. A bullet streaked through Kenta's hair, and he finally broke a sweat when he realized what had just happened.Harvey knew very clearly that they were coming for him after seeing what happened. That was why he decided not to stay still anymore and stepped forward. He coldly said, "You're here for me, aren't you? Tell Isoroku to come talk to me."I have to say you are quite brave, Harvey. Calling me by name without any honorifics," A stern and cold voice came from a helicopter right before them. The door opened, and an islander slowly walked out. It was a man with white hair and beard.His figure was thin and even looked sickly, defi
"You're someone who has experience, too. You know that you'll need at least three hours to prepare to get this many military helicopters deployed. It's not something that you can do in an instant. It means that while you're still fighting with Sora and his men, Isoroku has been standing by in this place."Not to mention that we Fujiharas will never work with them before getting what we want. Which means that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew that you will most likely survive even if you're at a disadvantage. That's why they've been staying here for a long time."While everyone knew that Kenta was probably just spewing nonsense, Clarion was still partially convinced when he heard how Kenta made his argument sound plausible. Could it be that Kenta was not the one pulling the strings here?Harvey narrowed his eyes and waved his hand. "At the very least, Kenta's right about his social standing being insufficient to work with Isoroku. Not to mention that now that they have obtai
At this time, the helicopter was passing through rows of mountains and valleys. This area was uninhabited. After passing through this uninhabited area, one would arrive at the Golden Triangle. Once one passed through the Golden Triangle, one would reach Hyperborea and finally Grand City.It was around this time that Harvey could feel a burst of murderous intent."Crap! Everyone, brace yourselves!" Clarion suddenly yelled as he looked in front of him from the front seats. He even took out a cigarette, lit it up, and took a deep huff to increase his mental focus as his expression darkened.Harvey quickly walked over to the front and narrowed his eyes. Then, he saw a swarm of helicopters flying in mid-air in a tight formation. Harvey looked at the flag on the helicopters with a smirk and gave Kenta a glance. "This is your so-called guarantee?"Kenta's expression also darkened as he looked in front in disbelief. After a while, he finally spoke in a shaky voice, "Forget about the helico
