“You’re pretty damn arrogant, brat!”Denver pointed a livid finger at Harvey, seething with anger.“So what if you can fight?!” he screamed.“At best, you’re just a decent fighter! You can’t do anything in a place like Hong Kong!”“Just you wait! I’ll get my boss here! I’ll make you wish you were never born in the first place!”“I’ll make you regret everything!”Denver spat, his face dark with fury. “Oh, are you calling for support?”Harvey chuckled, unperturbed.“Fine. I’ll give you ten minutes.”“Call whoever you want here.”“I do hope that you won’t disappoint me.”“Fine! I’ll do it!”Denver barked scornfully, before grabbing his phone to dial a number.“Young Master Flynn~ A man from Country H is trying to pressure me in one of your territories!”“You have to help me!”After his phone call, Denver glared coldly at Harvey.“Stay here if you actually have guts!”“You’re dead, I tell you! Dead!”“You’ll never know that there are a lot of people in Hong Kong that sm
Matthew crossed his arms and approached Harvey. He snarled icily, “Young man.”“Beating Hiroshi means that you’re a pretty decent fighter.”“Shame this is Hong Kong and not Country H.”“You better tell me what family you’re from, or what kind of power you possess.”“I’m really curious as to what gave you courage to show off in a place like Hong Kong!”“And I can tell you for sure that you’re a dead man, no matter who’s supporting you!”“It’s a shame, but there’s no other way. Us from Hong Kong like to preserve our reputation. We can’t accept some random man from Country H flaunting in front of us!”“We can’t embarrass ourselves, after all!”Harvey calmly sipped his wine, smiling, as if there was nothing to fear. “Such domineering aura, Young Master Flynn! Truly majestic.”“But if you stand up for Denver without discerning who’s right or wrong, aren’t you afraid of bumping into someone way more powerful than you?”Matthew thought that Harvey’s voice seemed familiar, but he d
“Small world indeed, Young Master Flynn.”“I’m sure it’s fate for us to meet here. You should have a drink.”Harvey set the nearly full bottle of Louis XIII, smiling warmly.“If you drink all this, I’ll let you off the hook.”Harvey raised his glass and poured the wine to the ground, staining the floor.He glanced at Matthew, still smiling. The crowd was dumbfounded at the sight.It was their first time seeing someone acting this arrogantly before Matthew.‘What does he mean, he’ll let Young Master Flynn off the hook if he drinks all of it?’If Matthew’s actions were considered arrogant, what Harvey did was flat out condescending!Sister Thirteen and the others glared coldly at Harvey, but none of them heard how Matthew had addressed Harvey. They didn’t expect Harvey to say such a thing to Matthew.This was Matthew Flynn, after all!One of the Four Masters of Hong Kong, and the successor of the Flynn family!Even the first-in-command of Hong Kong would have to pay respect
Denver looked as if he had taken a bite out of a bitter gourd. He was speechless, unable to say a single word.Sister Thirteen’s expression was entertaining as well. Her mouth was completely wide-open, her jaw hung so low it threatened to drop on the floor.Hiroshi even forgot to stand up. He couldn’t believe his eyes.“Young Master Flynn was forced to drink?”The Louis XIII bottle was almost full. There was about sixteen ounces of liquid in it, yet Matthew downed the whole bottle without any hesitation.On top of it all, Harvey was being condescending about the whole situation. Everyone felt resentful, unable to accept that fact.None of them were complete buffoons. While they couldn’t figure out why, they could understand that Matthew feared the man in front of him, and that Harvey was not to be provoked.Guh!Soon, Matthew was on the verge of throwing up after downing the entire bottle.He was a good drinker, but drinking so much had his head spinning quite a bit.But sinc
Slap!Before Denver could continue talking, Matthew’s eyes twitched frantically and he moved his hands to the side. In just a moment, he swung his hand on Denver’s face and sent Denver rolling on the ground.Immediately, he followed up by lifting Denver roughly from the ground and slapping Denver multiple times. Slap!“Are you blind, Denver?! Don’t you recognize South Light’s Prince York?!”Slap!“Do you only know how to bully people and stir up trouble?! Do you think you’re God?!”Slap!“If you keep offending Prince York, even if he decides to let you off the hook, I can’t do the same!”Matthew’s slaps were utterly ruthless; Denver’s face was completely swollen, and some of his teeth had fallen off after enduring a barrage of slaps.But the sharp pain on Denver’s face was nothing when he heard Matthew’s claim. At that instant, he could feel his life flash before his eyes.“S-South Light’s Prince York?!”Hong Kong, Las Vegas, and South Light were only an ocean apart. News
Matthew’s eyes twitched again at Harvey’s calm words.Harvey’s words were deceptively simple, but they had completely revealed Matthew’s thoughts.Denver, who was wailing on the ground, wouldn’t think much about the matter. However, the legendary King of Gambling would surely think twice if he were to catch wind of this.Alas, Matthew was trying to get the Hamilton family to do his dirty work!If that were to happen…Matthew’s eyes went haywire as panic rose inside him. Right now, he knew he was going against someone way above his league.“You should know what’s best for you, Young Master Flynn.”“I think the King of Gambling himself will talk to you real soon.”Matthew quickly changed his expression, at loss for words from sheer fear. He could only stare blankly at the ground, too terrified to think anything else.He had been humiliated utterly and thoroughly. He knew trouble would come back to bite him sooner or later.“Alright, get these people out of here. Let Sister Thir
“Everything seems to be fine after I went to Las Vegas and Hong Kong, but now, we’ve gathered one important piece of information…”“These people would come for my close ones just to kill me.”“Right now, Mandy’s their best target.”“I need to give them the wrong impression. They need to know that I’m scared.”“They’ll start to think that I was forced to divorce Mandy. They’ll even think that there’s a huge gap between us after what happened in Las Vegas and Hong Kong. I’m sure everyone who’s targeting me will be very happy to hear this, no?”“Only then will the cracks in Las Vegas and Hong Kong start to show…”Tyson froze.“I get it now. But, about Mordu…” Tyson began quietly.“Give Ethan a call. Tell me that he’s in charge of the Zimmer family’s safety.”“He’s a God of War. He should be able to deal with something this small,” Harvey explained.“Another thing. Get me a visiting card.”“I’ll go see Las Vegas’ first-in-command, Paul Mendoza himself, tomorrow.”…Twelve at m
The square-faced man tapped Lilian’s face lightly, grinning. “Interesting. We thought you were just some brain-dead woman, but it looks like you do have some insight after all. At least, I’m a little moved by your words.”“It’s a shame that neither you nor I get to decide whether you live or die...”Lilian’s body trembled in fright.“Please, sir! Be the bigger person and let me go!”“H-how about this? I have another few hundred million dollars worth of private money. I’ll split half of it with you!”The man with a square face didn’t respond. He stood up and chuckled coldly, and then dialed a number on his phone.“We found Lilian, Master York. She’s still alive.”“Looks like the Briewood Gang kept her alive for ransom.”“What should we do next? According to my intel, that man’s already interrogated Sister Thirteen overnight. He’ll be here soon.”“Why don’t we set things up here and give him a big surprise?”“Kill her.”A frosty tone sounded from the other side of the phone.
Harvey slightly frowned. He was shocked that Ethan had arrived. He even brought 500 soldiers from the Sword Camp. Was he attempting to destroy the entire Forbidden Wasteland?The 500 soldiers immediately encircled the entire Forbidden Wasteland as Harvey calmly watched how things developed. All of them had a sword by their waist, and their right hand was at the hilt. While they had not pulled out their swords yet, they were exuding a malevolent aura around them.Harvey had trained each of them, and they had all gone to war with him in the past. When they saw that Harvey was completely unharmed, they were both filled with excitement and relief. However, because of their orders, none of them went to salute him."So, this is the famous Forbidden Wasteland of World City. It was said that the people who were imprisoned here could never leave. I wonder if the Sword Camp can leave this place in one piece?"Ethan, who was in his military uniform, jumped off from the helicopter in mid-air.
Harvey narrowed his eyes as he looked at Lanny. There was only disdain in his eyes. "You said that you're doing everything by your law… But in truth, you simply want to make things worse. Despite looking like an agent of justice right now, what is happening right now is what you wanted the most."I'm the representative of Country H Martial Arts Alliance, which makes me the mayor of Grand City in name. Whether you want to interrogate or set me up, all of you must consider the consequences of your actions. But what if I was the one that did it first? That would give you a reason to attack me, right?"I have to admit that it indeed worked in your favor, Lanny. But it also showed me the truth about Grand City! Rules and laws that have existed since ancient times? All of them were jokes and excuses!"Blade listened to Harvey with a dark expression, as if his beliefs were challenged. Meanwhile, Lanny remained calm. She breathed deeply and gave a cold reply, "Stop wasting your breath, Ha
All of Clarion's men exchanged looks. They did not want to but had no choice but to retreat. It was obvious that they could not simply watch Neve die like that. Harvey quickly motioned to Mandy, signaling for her to exit with her.Shortly after, they arrived at an empty space on the surface. An armed helicopter was waiting there. They had moved it here from somewhere, and it was also warmed up. Harvey took Neve hostage and was going to bring Mandy up into the helicopter.But before they could get any closer, hundreds of men and women in uniform appeared and surrounded them. They were all armed with weapons such as Rainstorm Needles and Royal Flushes, specially designed against martial arts masters. If they were used, the damage they could cause would be devastating."Do you really think you can escape, Harvey?" Lanny walked out from behind the crowd."I've indeed prepared a helicopter for you, but do you dare to go up? If you do, we have plenty of weapons to take it down so you can
Blade's expression turned extremely dark when he heard what Harvey had said. For someone like him, who had obeyed the laws of Grand City all his life, what Harvey had said was a hard pill to swallow. The point was that Harvey was right.While what happened looked like a coincidence, it resulted from Lanny's deliberate neglect. Was it not a joke for them to want Harvey to follow the rules when they themselves broke the rule first?However, Neve did not seem like she was threatened at all. She was already in a state of crazed fury, and she smiled. "You killed my fiance and then slapped me? Do you think you can leave just like this? Dream on! Even if I had to die today, I'll drag you down into the grave with me!"Crack!Harvey tightened his grip and snapped Neve's right arm. Then, he took the Rainstorm Needles and aimed them at Neve's head again. This simple action showed Harvey's determination.Neve almost let out a scream of pain as she could not stop shuddering from the pain of he
Neve, Lanny, and the others figured that once they captured Mandy, they would have it in the bag. They could do whatever they wanted to Harvey. However, they did not expect Harvey to respond with such fierceness."How dare you, Harvey!" After a moment of silence, Clarion finally reacted to what had happened. And as he waved his hand, everyone around him immediately rushed over. All of them raised the Rainstorm Needles in their hands, aiming at Harvey. It was as if they would turn Harvey into a beehive if he dared to make another move."How dare you touch me? Even my dad never hit me! You have a death wish! You're just a powerless representative! Even if you do have power, your demise is already determined after what you did openly just now!" Neve's face became twisted with anger."I might not be able to do anything to you if you don't touch me, but now that you did, no one in this world can protect you!" There was a crazed look on Neve's face. Obviously, she believed that Harvey wou
After Neve made her orders, all the men and women beside her revealed what was under their sleeves. They were all wearing the martial art weapons, the Rainstorm Needles. This was something ten times better than guns when targeting martial artists.However, Harvey ignored all of them and continued moving forward. He exclaimed coldly, "Stop! If any of you are going to continue to attack Mandy, I'm going to cripple you!"Neve gave an icy smirk. There was only disdain on her face as she narrowed her eyes at Harvey. "Who do you think you are, Harvey? Do you think you're in a position to make me stop just by telling me? Are you having heartaches for her? I'm going to hurt her right before you now!"Neve kicked Mandy to the ground and then stomped on her stomach. "You witch! Witch! Let's see who can stop you tonight! Durandal is already dead, and I don't want to live anymore! I'm not going to stop until you're dead!"Then, Neve revealed the Rainstorm Needles under her sleeves and put them
Jackson's eyes narrowed when he heard what Clarion had said, but he said nothing else. He gave Harvey an apologetic smile and then ordered his men to temporarily take Harvey into the prison at the back. While it was nothing more than symbolism, Blade knew that Clarion simply wanted to use this chance to disgust Harvey.Just when Harvey was going to be taken away, Clarion pulled out his mobile and dialed a number. Shortly after, the door was once again kicked open with a bang.Then, Durandal's companions appeared with anguished expressions. They were led by a long-haired man and a woman in a face mask. Once they entered the courtroom, the woman removed her mask. She was so sorrowful as if her husband had passed away.As for that long-haired man, while he had lost a finger and had his hand bandaged, there was a malevolent aura coming from him."Mandy! How could you kill my fiance?! I'll kill you!" The woman was instantly filled with rage the moment she saw Mandy. She immediately ran
Shortly, Blade escorted Harvey through the door made of rock. They followed the staircase down and into an underground area. It was quite spacious down there, and it was probably formed naturally. Plenty of man-made structures were built within the underground space.However, these buildings must be at least hundreds of years old. The lights added afterward suggest this was some kind of underground city.Harvey was quickly dragged to a place that looked like an ancient court. There was a sign board saying "Justice" on top, and three different kinds of guillotines were placed there. Bronze, silver, and gold. The ground under the guillotine seemed to be dark from the color of dried blood. One could faint by just watching the dried blood.It was obvious that countless people had died under these guillotines in the past few centuries. Harvey was unfazed by them. Instead, he found a bench and sat down, enjoying the sights of his surroundings.Those who were informed would know that he w
After a long while, Harvey sighed and said, "If that's the case, can you let me see the original files and conversation with the nurse? I also wanted to know just what kind of evidence the people from the Forbidden Wasteland believed was real."When Lanny heard Harvey's request, she coldly replied, "I'm sorry. But we haven't reached that part of the procedure yet. We know that you might be someone at the True Warrior level. It would be easy for an elite like you to assassinate or mislead someone. That's why, before we can confirm their safety, we won't show you any of the evidence or witness."Harvey shrugged. "I do have the power of a True Warrior. If I wanted to, I could easily kill everyone standing here.""I know," Lanny answered coldly. "But will you? No one is an island in this world. If you do that, all your friends and family will die because of you. Grand City will also categorize you as the most dangerous criminal and will do everything we can to kill you."You know all o
