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.
‘Is he even human?!’‘He’s already this good of a fighter at such a young age. It’s terrifying!’The square-faced man found himself terrified to the bones.No wonder his superior wanted him to be careful when going against Harvey York! If he missed his chance, he would’ve had no way out of the situation.Everything right now was too terrifying for him!This was The square-faced man’s evaluation of Harvey.But before he could say anything, Harvey kicked down another man who had rushed toward him.Other than Lilian, there were only four men left standing behind the square-faced man.“You’re pretty impressive, Harvey!” he said, sizing up Harvey.“I’ll admit that I’m not your opponent.”“But your end is already set in stone!”The square-faced man took a few steps back, then pulled Lilian up before removing her blindfold.“Break your arms and leave, Sir York! If not, I’ll end her life right now!” he exclaimed furiously.Lilian immediately came to her senses after her blindfold
“If anything happens to me, I’ll chase you down even if I turn into a damn ghost!”“You have to divorce Mandy no matter what! I won’t let her keep you ever again!” Lilian continued to screech.“I think you should just do as you’re told and chop off your arms already, Harvey.”The square-faced man grinned, as if he had realized something.“If you don’t, how are you supposed to live up to your wife and mother-in-law’s expectations?”“You of all people should know that we’re doing so much just to cripple you.”“Your mother-in-law’s just a means to get there. It doesn’t matter if she lives or dies!”“I swear to God that if you chop off both your arms, I’ll let your mother-in-law go this instant!”“If I break my promise, then I’ll die without a burial spot!”Naturally, the square-faced man understood that he was no match for Harvey after witnessing Harvey’s fighting skills first hand.His only hope as of now was to use Lilian to suppress Harvey.If Harvey were to cripple himself,
Harvey laughed.“I’m here to make sure she’s dead. I planned for her to die in your hands, too.”“Only then will the Zimmer family let me off the hook.”“Of course, when she’s dead, I’ll destroy you all as well. That way, no one will know what happened here.”“Everyone will call me a hero for getting revenge for my mother-in-law!”“Mandy would be so happy with me, she might even sleep with me!”“Hurry up already! I can’t wait!”Harvey pretended to look exhilarated, as if he wanted Lilian dead then and there.The square-faced man froze.“Do you really think I’d believe you, Harvey York?!” he said, though he did show some hesitation. “I’ve seen your files! You…”“Bastard! You bastard! You filthy kept man! You deserve to die!!!” Lilian suddenly yelled furiously, not giving the other two time to talk.“I was blind to have let my daughter marry such an ungrateful prick!”“Let me tell you something! I won’t let you go even if I turn into a ghost!”“I swear to God, I’ll make yo
He knew that his only way of survival was to control Harvey through Lilian.Without that, he would die without a doubt!Harvey’s skills were utterly terrifying. Ordinary people wouldn’t even begin to comprehend that sort of power.The square-faced man was about to put more pressure on his knife, wanting to slit Lilian’s windpipe in one go.Swish!Harvey’s face changed at that moment. He leaned his body forward, appearing right in front of Lilian as he thrust the blade in his hands.Bang!There was a deafening sound, and the entire place seemed to freeze.Harvey’s right hand was placed against Lilian’s stomach, and the knife was planted deeply in her abdomen.The square-faced man behind her couldn’t cut right into Lilian’s throat any longer; and the knife stabbed right into his heart.He couldn’t believe that Harvey would kill him like this.Harvey had Lilian as a meat shield, after all!Did he really not care about Lilian’s survival?Bang!Right as the square-faced man br
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
