What did that mean?Harvey suddenly became guarded.‘I’m an upright man, so don’t you dare target me.’Yuna didn’t think that her statement was anything suspicious, so she handed Harvey an invitation card and added, “There’s a gathering tonight which requires me to bring along a male partner.”“You saw how things are for me. I have no male friends at all.”“If you’re willing to be my male partner for tonight, I’ll regard it as you repaying me the favour.”Harvey thought about her offer for a while. He asked, “Is this gathering very important to you?”Yuna nodded lightly. “Those who will be attending the gathering tonight are all big shots in Buckwood’s education industry, as well as the whole of South Light. I hope to get to know some of them.”“It’ll aid Buckwood High School’s future developments and our students to get admitted into colleges.”“Alright.”Hearing this, Harvey agreed instantly.Xynthia would be applying for colleges already next year. Maybe tonight, he could
After arriving at the college town’s exhibition centre, Harvey and Yuna got out of the cab. Harvey realized that quite a number of people were staking out, probably waiting for the headmasters and chairmen of various prestigious schools. When they noticed Harvey and Yuna’s arrival, many thought of the two as competitors and shot them glares of daggers. But when they saw Yuna pulling out an invitation card, they became speechless.Who wouldn’t drive an expensive car to attend an educational gathering like this?Even those who wanted to stay low-key would at least drive an Audi or BMW. Certainly, no one else would arrive in a mere cab!Harvey and Yuna entered the banquet hall shortly after their arrival at the exhibition centre.There were people assigned specifically to check their invitation cards, who then ushered them to the entrance. “Mr. York, Ms. Yuna. The banquet is about to start. If there’s anything both of you need, you can call over any of the waiters here.”Harvey
In an educational event such as this, the security was always extremely tight.The people who went in and out of here were all big shots of the education industry. If anything went wrong here, it would reach the headlines.At Rowan Juan’s words, a few fully-armed security guards hurried over.“Sir, Miss. Please show me your invitation card, “The security requested Harvey.Harvey wiped off the sweat from his forehead and turned to look at Yuna.Yuna nodded before showing the guards the invitation card from before.Seeing this, Rowan’s facial expression changed slightly. Apparently, she didn’t expect Yuna really did have an invitation card.However, she wasn’t ready to give up. She immediately suggested, “Captain! You better look properly. Maybe this invitation is stolen from somewhere!”The security captain, who was about to apologize, instantly opened the card and took a good look at it. His expression changed. “This invitation card is for Buckwood High School’s chairman, but I
Rowan Juan was shocked when the security guard captain yelled at her, and put on a look as though she had been wronged.She thought revealing the true faces of this thief and conman would be for the betterment of this gathering.Why didn’t this security captain appreciate her gesture?But how could she understand his thoughts? If this problem worsened, even if it did get taken care of in the end, the captain knew he would be finished.“Sir, Miss. Please leave.”The security captain struggled to keep his cool as he gestured for Harvey and Yuna to leave.Yuna’s face became pale white. This was the first time she had attended such an event, so she didn’t know what to do under these circumstances.Harvey, on the other hand, said calmly, “If I were you now, what I would do is to investigate Miss Yuna’s true identity instead of being unreasonable and forceful.”“After all, Buckwood High School is the best high school in Buckwood. If the school headmistress gets kicked out by you and
Luke Surrey’s complexion worsened at those words.Even though he was the Prince of the Surrey family, he still dared not lash out on this occasion. He could only glare at Rowan Juan before walking out.“Gentlemen, I do know these two. But they are surely not my friends. I will not make friends with such trash.”Normally, he would still defend Yuna.However, since Yuna and Harvey had come together now, how could he flatter them?Meanwhile, the guests were all focusing on Harvey. No one noticed that the first-in-command of Buckwood, Yoel Graham, had already entered the venue.His secretary went to Buckwood High School with Yoel today, so he recognized Harvey with just one glance. He said in a low voice, “Sir Yoel, there seems to be some misunderstanding. The identity of Mr. York isn’t that simple. I think I should go and explain.”Yoel waved his hand, his expression a little solemn. After a while, he replied slowly, “Don’t do anything for the time being. Wait until the situation i
“Prince Surrey, outsiders say that you always are arrogant since you’re a young upstart. It seems you already have the charisma of Prince York!”“You were born in the wrong era! If you entered society three years earlier, then Prince York’s got no business being in Buckwood!”“Yes! It seems that the outside world has highly exaggerated Prince York’s abilities. In truth, you’re the one who is young and successful!”The crowd around also began to praise Luke.After all, Luke did show them some respect. Naturally, they had to return the favor.As for the comparison with Prince York, this was quite normal.After all, Prince York was the number one man in all of South Light.Listening to these people comparing himself with the legendary Prince York, Luke couldn’t help but feel complacent.Being compared to Prince York was the highest honor in South Light.Didn’t Leon Silva claim he was the closest to Prince York back then?“Gentlemen, stop flattering me too much. I know very well
Rowan Juan, who was on the sidelines, found the whole thing very interesting.She never thought that things would reach this point.How dare that coquettish Yuna’s lover hit Luke Surrey?He was definitely asking for death!Now, the situation has escalated this far. Not only was this man going to die, but Yuna would also end up just as badly.After all, Luke was not as suave as he seemed to be.“Who are you? How dare you hit Prince Surrey!” Rowan ran to Luke’s side with a concerned look. She pointed angrily at Harvey and cursed, “Do you know who he is? Do you know his status?” Secretly, she was hoping that things would get worse.Luke’s eyes were ice.To him, the looks of the people around him were all a mockery.They were all taunting him!His rationale began to fade away. Right now, he couldn’t wait to slaughter Harvey.The security guards were dumbfounded. They never expected that Harvey would dare to hit Luke, even going as far as to slap the latter.It wasn’t just that
“Sir Yoel, I don’t care whether their invitations are real or otherwise, or whatever their status may be. Since they dared to hit me, they owe me an explanation!”Luke Surrey exclaimed furiously.Yoel narrowed his eyes at Luke and replied indifferently, “Prince Surrey, I’m afraid you still don’t know who is standing in front of you.”“I’m telling you. He’s a noble person who even I, Yoel Graham, have to respect!”“I know what happened. You started the whole mess. You deserve to be hit!”“I urge you to kneel right this instant now apologize to Mr. York. Otherwise, you’ll regret it!”So saying, Yoel nodded respectfully at Harvey’s direction and went to greet Harvey. The sight stunned every single person in the hall.Even Yoel Graham respected Harvey so much. Who was this young man?“Yoel Graham! What do you mean?!”“You think you can run trample all over the Surreys just because you’re the first-in-command of Buckwood?”“Let me warn you! It’s only a matter of a few words from
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
