“If you know what’s best for you, you’ll get as far away from here as possible!”“The so-called contract doesn’t count!”“Let me go, and maybe I’ll think of canceling the engagement between me and Queenie!”“You’ll get the top four families of Hong Kong to send half of their assets right to my doorstep, then put the Mordu Casino-Palace under my name! I’ll consider leaving their subordinates alive after that.”“I’m being extremely generous right now!”Jason’s expression was as cold as ice as he threatened Harvey.“Since you won, I’ll give you a chance.”“Don’t blame me for what happens next if you don’t do as I say!”Harvey narrowed his eyes at Jason.“I don’t care if you cancel the engagement or if you’ll bury the hatchet.”“Everything’s written in black and white right here.”“We have video footage too.”“Since you lost, you’ll have to acknowledge it and abide by the contract.”“But now, not only are you denying it, but you’re also trying to haggle with me.”“Have you lo
As expected, murderous intent could be seen on Jason’s face as he turned to glare at Vince.Harvey used the opportunity to push even harder.“You asked Jason to come back and go on with his engagement, so there’ll be no obstacles for you when you rise to power.”“I’m about to kill this guy, yet you’re here shedding crocodile tears?”“You… You b*stard…!”Vince was shivering in anger.He didn’t think that Harvey would shamelessly make him the scapegoat.Under these circumstances, there was no way for him to explain himself .Thinking back, Jason might’ve ended up this way because of Vince’s “hard work.”Jason’s eyes brightened in anger.“Stop trying to provoke us, Harvey!” he roared.“I won’t be fooled by your tricks!”“Do you know the consequences of going against me?!”“You won’t dare lay a single finger on me!”“I’m the baron of The Empire! I’m about to become the earl, to boot!”“I’m the deputy commander of the Knights Templar! I’m this close to being the commander!”
Jason and Vince froze at the sight.Mateo was a King of Arms!Even if they wanted to take down Mateo together, they would have to use all their might!If not, they would probably fail.Yet… Harvey sent Mateo flying with just a single slap!If Jason and Vince didn’t see it for themselves, they wouldn’t have believed it.Vince was already quite cautious of Harvey…But at this very moment, Harvey’s lethality shot to unprecedented levels inside Vince’s heart.“This is a Knight Templar? Your standards dropped quite a bit.”Harvey pulled out some tissue to wipe his hand, still calm and emotionless. Jason’s expression grew cornful, and he immediately took the firearm on his waist.“Do you really want to have a go at me, Harvey?!” he roared.“You of all people should know that I’m a God of War!”“If you really want to fight, a lot of your people are probably going to die here!”“It’s better to forgive someone than to pursue one’s mistakes, Harvey. Don’t burn bridges so quickly,”
Bang!A bullet sank right into Vince’s back.The force was enough to send Vince flying. Then, he slammed right into the glass floor.The glass shattered, revealing cracks that resemble a spider web. Small shards scattered all over the place.Blood gushed right out of Vince’s mouth when he collapsed to the ground. His expression was utterly horrible.Jason was just too wicked. Not even a God of War like Vince saw that coming.Vince wasn’t dead, but he wasn’t feeling great either. Blood was seeping out of his wound.“Young Lord York!”The frightened guards of the Yorks all rushed toward Vince.“You b*stard! The young lord did so much for you, and this is how you repay him?!” one of the guards exclaimed furiously.Some of them swiftly brought out the All-Cure Medicine. “Give this to the young lord! Get him to the hospital as soon as possible!”The entire place had fallen into utter chaos.Not just the Yorks of Hong Kong, even the tourists were in a daze after witnessing such a
“Are you insane, Jason?”“Are you just going to believe whatever he says?!”“You’re saying I called you back here so I can deal with you?”“That’s a little funny, don’t you think?”“You’re a God of War!”“Are you that easy to fool?!”Vince was on the verge of coughing up blood amid his furious outburst.“You’re useless, Jason!”“No wonder you got kicked out of Hong Kong six years ago!”“Do you think you can make a strong comeback like this?!”“Piss off!”“Keep dreaming!”Jason, in return glared daggers at Vince.“No matter what you say, you won’t be able to hide the actual truth,” he replied in a quiet snarl.“Even now, you’re still tarnishing the reputation of a God of War.”“You’re insulting the Knights Templar and The Empire!”“Even if the law has mercy on you, I will not do the same!”Jason put on a righteous expression and waved his hand angrily.“Do it! Didn’t you hear what I said?!”“Are all of you deaf?!”“Kill him right now!”Jason raised his own firearm b
The moment Vince jumped, the Knights Templar were already catching up to him.The guards were crushed in an instant, for the Knights Templar had more guns than them.The guards used all their might to hold their enemies off in order to buy Vince enough time to flee.Yoana stood up from the crowd and glanced at Harvey, waiting for his command to take down Vince.Harvey shook his head. As long as they didn’t do anything, they had already won. It would be bad if they did anything unreasonable.For the time being, they only needed to watch the show quietly.Vrooooom!Sounds of an engine revving could be heard from outside. Vince had entered his car after escaping Mordu Casino-Palace.“Jason! Harvey! I’ll remember this!”“I’ll settle the scores with you sooner or later!”Murderous intent could be heard from Vince’s angry tone.Harvey shrugged, looking perfectly innocent.“I didn’t do anything to you, Young Lord York. Every debt has its debtor.”“If you do anything to me because
Jason’s expression frantically changed into one of panic.“You of all people should know that my subordinates are no match for Vince!” he hissed.“Unless I go after him myself, they have no chance of getting Vince!”Harvey shrugged.“That’s none of my business.”“I told you. If you can kill your sworn brother, I’ll let you off the hook.”“Since you’re out of ways to deal with him, it won’t be easy for you to get out of here unscathed.”“You can set up an ambush with your men, or you can call for more people.”“If you can do anything at all, I won’t stop you.”“There’s only one catch: you’re not allowed to step out of this hall.”“If you do, don’t blame me for what happens next.”“Don’t try anything stupid in front of me, either.”“It’s useless.”Jason pointed his firearm coldly at Harvey, who appeared nonchalant and unperturbed.Soon after, Jason had no choice but to put it back down.There were at least twenty other firearms pointed at his head right after he raised his
“There’s no rush. We’re not the ones who want him dead. It’s Vince,” Harvey replied calmly.“If that’s the case, why should we satisfy him in the first place?”“It’s be good to use Jason against him anyway.”Edwin frowned.“But that guy’s a tough nut to crack!”“After he was locked up, he’s been laughing to himself the entire time, saying that we can’t do anything to him and that we’ll let him go the same way we locked him up.”“If it weren’t for you, Sir York, I would’ve gotten someone to torture him by now.”“That’s a God of War. You think torture’s going to work on him?” Harvey asked.“Even if we manage to stop his rage for now, we might unintentionally sharpen his will.”Queenie sighed.“I have to admit, that guy’s a total scumbag. That said, he’s pretty impressive to say the least.”“It won’t be hard to kill him, but it’ll be almost impossible if we want him to give in.”“There might be another way…”Harvey smiled before waving his hand, signaling Edwin to lean over s
"Not to mention, these are weapons that Grand City's top brass directly controls. If it isn't because I've taken control over Earth Hall recently, I wouldn't have been able to take these out," Clarion said with a sigh.Harvey nodded. "Looks like letting you control Earth Hall is one of my correct decisions after coming to Grand City."Then, Harvey narrowed his eyes and looked ahead. "Clarion. Take your men and attack from the outer ring. Do your best to reach the destination and save our people."Clarion blinked. "And you?"Harvey said, "Always go for the head. A truly powerful elite must be keeping an eye on everything. If we don't eliminate him, our rescue will be destined to fail."Harvey slammed his foot on the ground before jumping into the air, his figure quickly disappearing into the horizon. He noticed that there were plenty of elites converging. This was Sky Plane's territory. No matter how many he killed, his enemies would most likely swarm him.If that was the case,
While Clarion and Harvey were talking, the Origin Sword Style elites were already slowly coming closer.600 feet. 300 feet. 150 feet!As they drew closer, everyone could see their murderous expression. Their firearms already had their safety off. One could also see there were no longer any gaps in their encirclement.With how things were going, the only two options for Harvey and his men were to either get killed or to simply surrender.As they drew closer, not only was Clarion sweating, but all his bodyguards also had cold sweat on their foreheads.Only Harvey wasn't doing anything. He simply narrowed his eyes as if he was quietly calculating something. When there were only 60 feet left, he suddenly said, "You have two seconds."Harvey suddenly slammed his foot on the ground.Boom!A powerful shockwave extended outward, and all the Origin Sword Style elites surrounding them were subconsciously stunned. The shield they were holding momentarily left the ground."Warsong! Fire
At Clarion's order, all his bodyguards immediately dragged out several black suitcases. Within were black holes with blue bullets. It was obvious these bullets were created to be used on Martial Arts elites. The damage they could deal was beyond anyone's imagination.The bodyguards stood in front of Harvey and Clarion with the suitcases, ready to fight their enemies to the bitter end.When the Origin Sword Style elites saw how Harvey and the others reacted, they took out a shield and placed it in front of them. It was obvious they were prepared.Or perhaps, it was easier to say that the Origin Sword Style elites already knew what they had prepared.Clarion's expression darkened. "How did these fools manage to guess we're here with the Warsongs?"Harvey narrowed his eyes. "Is there a possibility that they didn't make a guess, but instead already received news about how many people we brought and what kind of weapons, so they could make preparations for us?"Clarion was stunned. "W
Boom! Boom! Boom!There was a string of explosions in mid-air. The bolts had also been engulfed by the explosion. Even after Harvey had managed to negate the attacks, he didn't stop. He grabbed the rocks from the ground with his hand.Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!Several elites hidden in the shadows instantly lost their fighting skills."He really is a True Warrior," Clarion muttered when he saw what happened. He wasn't even sure what to say.He thought he should be able to put himself to some use this time, hence why he asked to come with Harvey. He didn't expect Harvey to be so powerful that he needed others at all.Very quickly, all the attackers gathered. It was obvious they knew they couldn't do anything to Harvey anymore."These people are from the Origin Sword Style!" Clarion said seriously after he looked at what the attackers were wearing. "They're quite troublesome. While they look like they're over-the-top, they're most likely sacrificial soldiers. But the problem is t
"Of course, if we can maintain absolute discretion, we can escape without alerting anyone once we find Ms. Mandy," Clarion said, remaining positive. "That way, we don't have to fight and draw the attention of those who hold power in Sky Plane."Harvey was sitting in the van. He frowned and looked at the buildings with clear Island Nation influence. "Since Daichi is blackmailing me using Mandy, that means they're confident we won't be able to take her away. I believe we'll have to fight with those from the Origin Sword Style today."Harvey gave it a thought for a while and said, "And don't you think that the information Vaida gave us is too accurate? As if someone left behind an opening for us."Clarion's eyes widened. "Don't tell me this is a trap just for us?"Harvey shook his head. "Not only for us, but also for Grand City. If we're really stuck here… It doesn't matter if we're killed or captured alive, we'll become the excuse for them to attack Grand City. This time, we must…"
Sky Plane's countryside, Clover Hotel.In the Clover Hotel's VIP area, a mansion at the edge of the hotel, Mandy was looking outside with a deep frown. At this time, someone gently knocked at her door from the outside."Come in," Mandy said.The leader of the security team, Seven Jean of the Jeans of Mordu, came in. He bowed to Mandy with respect before saying calmly, "Ms. Mandy, according to the information I've received, the women you've saved have been sent out of Sky Plane. I've also confirmed the people we came into conflict with. He's Yamamoto Sora, scion of the Origin Sword Style."The school's status is very high in Sky Plane. While we managed to get some protection for the time being, I believe we won't be able to make this disappear so quickly. Our visa only has an effective duration of seven days. Once the time is up, Sky Plane will have an excuse to remove all the security here. We'll be in danger when that happens."I think we should leave Sky Plane immediately whil
Mandy reacted very quickly, as if she understood something. She quickly said to Harvey through the phone, "I'm on the sixth floor of a hotel! I…"Before she could even finish, Daichi had already hung up the call with a tap. He then gave Harvey a meaningful look. "There are some rules you should keep, Mr. Harvey. Otherwise, if the people from Sky Plane's side have a misunderstanding, I can't tell what will happen next."Alright. Let's get into the main topic. Ms. Mandy is very safe right now, but I believe that her safety can only be maintained for two to three days. My men can't continue protecting her without a good reason, right? "Once it has been confirmed that there's nothing here that I want, my people who maintain her protection will be pulled back immediately. No one can tell what will happen after that."Daichi gave Harvey a dry smile. "That's why you'll be in control of Ms. Mandy's life and death. We are people who keep our side of the deals. We hope you can maintai
Harvey's expression was calm as he said coldly to Daichi, "No matter how good and logical you make it sound, the truth is, you're threatening me. Rather than being threatened by the Sky Plane, why don't you stick around and be my hostage for an exchange?"As soon as Harvey had finished saying that, he slammed his hand on the table. A piece of wood immediately fired out from the table and pierced into the chair's backrest, just next to Daichi's ear.However, Harvey was in for a surprise. Even in a situation like this, Daichi was still able to maintain his calmness as he continued to enjoy his meal. It was as if the one about to die here wasn't him.Once Daichi had chewed his food slowly and swallowed it, only then did he smile at Harvey. "Mr. Harvey, or Mr. Representative. Do you really think fighting can solve everything? It's true I'm from the branch family of the Ruling Royal Family and the blood of royalty flows in my veins, but there are too many like me. So many that I am eas
"Most importantly, this matter with Ms. Mandy happened in Sky Plane—which means outsiders can't enter quietly and save her," Daichi said to Harvey with a smile. "But don't worry, Harvey. We know Ms. Mandy is yours, so we'll find a way to keep protecting her. How to protect her and for how long would depend on your sincerity, though."Harvey's expression was cold as he said slowly, "And here I thought you'd tell me you'd do everything to protect Mandy, making a show despite how shameless you are. I didn't expect you to be so direct—in threatening me! If I refuse your request, Mandy will immediately fall into Sora's hand, right?"Daichi smiled faintly. "You're indeed a perceptive and decisive man. It makes things easier for me to work with someone like you. I will tell you what you need to do—or perhaps, it's easier for me to say what price you need to pay for Mandy's return."Daichi took a final bite of his fish and said with a smug smile, "It's simple. Give me the Chapter of Ascensi
