Under their ridicule, Xynthia Zimmer went red with shame.She couldn’t help tugging at her brother-in-law’s shirt and whispered, “Brother-in-law, let’s just go and book somewhere else!”“I want it to be here. I like this place.” Harvey replied. “Since the Zapatas don’t want to serve me, then we’ll simply change hosts.” “Ha ha ha! Okay, we’ll wait and see. There’s three minutes left.”Harry made a show of studying his watch on purpose, his face filled with open mockery. “One minute left…”As he continued parading his arrogance, the door to the elevator slid open.A few men in pristine suits strode toward Harvey and addressed him with utmost respect. “Mr. York. From today onwards, we’ll be running the Spinning Restaurant. We’ll make sure your reservation for the day after tomorrow is done efficiently!”Everyone took in the scene with stunned shock, utterly baffled.Xynthia was so astonished, her whole body shook.Did Brother-in-law really achieve what he wanted?How was that
The smartly-dressed men tagged submissively behind Harvey York, their heads sinking into deep bows. “M-Mr. York…”“According to Secretary Xavier’s instructions, from today onwards this restaurant will be directly run by Sky Corporation. Do you have any orders for me, sir?”“There’s no need to change the workers or the rules here. Well, except that one rule where you need to pay a hundred and half a million dollars to book the entire place…” Harvey tossed his card and continued, “I want to book this whole venue on the day after tomorrow for a birthday dinner. Remember to decorate the place nicely.”The temporary person-in-charge caught Harvey’s black card with shaky hands.Initially he had been doubtful, but now he’s as certain as ever.This is the man from the legend!Yet seeing how this man always kept a low profile, the temporary person-in-charge didn’t dare to address him with the name that all of Buckwood treated with utmost awe and respect.Since Harvey wanted to pay with t
Without even looking at her, Harvey York said, “Excuse me, I’m here to buy a house.”“What? You’re here to buy a house?” The real estate agent began sizing Harvey up with her eyes.She thought her ears were having problems.Apart from the fact that a young and pretty girl was tagging behind him, this man didn’t look like someone who could afford the properties here.She took in a deep breath and said with a serious tone, “Sir, do you know how much the estates here cost? Our designed houses are at least thirty-thousand dollars per square meter.”“Plus, our property sizes range from at minimum five hundred square metres. Any of them costs at least fifteen million dollars!”“Are you sure you’re really here to buy a house?”Harvey nodded nonchalantly. He was already reading the details and information of the houses on display.Xynthia Zimmer couldn’t stand the real estate agent’s arrogance and blurted, “Didn’t we say we’re here to buy a house? Stop talking nonsense already, won’t yo
Despite her complicated emotions, Tara felt more excited than ever.The reason she had been so determined to work hard was so that she could one day stand before Harvey York and tell him:You looked down on me before. Now, I’m standing at a level you can’t even climb up to!Even when three years had passed after graduation, she never had the chance to do so. Who knew the opportunity would come by knocking today!“My old batch mate, when did you come to Buckwood?”Tara Lewis scrutinized Harvey York from top to bottom as she asked.Harvey replied, “Half a month ago…” “After graduating for so long, I’ve been hearing a lot of strange rumours. It seems that you’re now a live-in son-in-law for a second-class family from Niumhi. Is that true?”“And now, you’re here in Buckwood? Is it because they don’t want you anymore? Are you here to look for another rich woman who would feed you?”“Now that I think about it, I was quite dumb to even confess to you back in college!”“Are you sing
All Tara Lewis could feel was disdain and disappointment.However, she was an exceptional person and suppressed herself from showing any negative emotions. Instead, she put on a smile. “Oh, yes. You’re here to buy a house, Harvey?”“Seeing how we’re old batch mates, I’ll give you the highest discount available.”“Still, I’m afraid that even if I offer you discounts, the houses here are worth at least fifteen million dollars…”“Why don’t I introduce you to the houses in the rural parts of Buckwood. I heard they only cost around a hundred thousand.”Harvey York replied with a smile, “Thank you, but I’m only interested in the houses here.”“Pfft! Ha ha ha ha…”!The other real estate workers all burst out laughing.He’s holding on to his pathetic act to the very end, isn’t he? Tara chuckled. “My old batch mate, it’s not that you’re not allowed to buy the houses here.”“But we don’t accept yearly or monthly payments. You have to pay the full amount.”“Can you… afford that?”Har
What was there to be said about a house worthy of thirty million dollars? Of course it would be perfect!The problem was, could he afford it?Tara Lewis looked at Harvey York with a sneer. She decided she definitely would make a fool out of him tonight. She would wait and see what kind of excuse he’d use to take back his declaration to buy the house.“My old batch mate, seeing how we’ve known each other for so many years, I can bring you over to view the house in person. How about that?” Tara said, smiling. “If you’re pleased with it, you can move in right away.” In her eyes, a peasant like Harvey who’s also a live-in son-in-law of some nameless family wouldn’t be able to do anything else except to let go of his pretense. After reading the description and looking at the pictures displayed in the brochure, Harvey shook his head. “There’s no need for that.”“Why? Are you afraid of going? Or is it because you’re too poor to buy it?” The real estate agent who had served Harvey and
Xynthia Zimmer only returned to her normal self after exiting the real estate centre. She stared at Harvey York with a mystified expression and said, “Brother-in-law, so I have a house now?”“For now, your sister and I will be living there. Isn’t there a few hundred square metres wide of space around the top garden? You can stay there if you want to.”Xynthia became excited. “Then, brother-in-law, can I choose to not live on the school campus anymore? The school hostel is too small, I don’t want to stay there any longer…”Her actual intention was to see her brother-in-law every day.Plus, she had to come up with a way to prevent him and her sister from consummating their marriage.Harvey would’ve never imagined his wife’s younger sister would have such ulterior motives. He thought for a while before saying, “This house is yours, so you can choose to come and go whenever you want. I can’t control you.”Xynthia had a look of realization. She decided to move in during the National D
Opening the door, Mandy Zimmer was surprised.Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine Brent Silva would actually be at her doorstep, a bouquet of flowers in his hands.On the other hand, Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates were looking at Brent as if he was already their son-in-law, nodding their heads repeatedly in approval.“Hello, uncle and auntie. Last time I was rude, but that was a misunderstanding. I hope you are generous enough to let it slide.’“The reason I’m here today is to give you all a formal apology, and to celebrate Mandy’s birthday.”Brent smiled, looking gentle and handsome.If the people who knew him intimately were around they wouldn’t even recognize him, what with the way he was acting.“Yes, Mr. Silva came here with utmost sincerity. Uncle Simon, Aunt Lilian, you should be grateful.” Zack Zimmer aided from behind, quick to praise Brent. “With the Zimmers’ status, we shouldn’t be able to connect with a family as noble as the Silvas.” Brent waved his hand. 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
