“That’s why I’m asking you for help…”Harvey froze when he heard about the Torres family’s history. A bitter smile reached his lips.“Don’t forget: I may be the Head Coach, but I’m no doctor.”“That’s true, but you know the Art of Killing.”“The Lifestealing Finger is one of those techniques.”“Only you have a chance to save my father now.”“I really wouldn’t ask for your help if that wasn’t the case.”Naturally, Ansel knew that Harvey wouldn’t take action that easily. That was why he kept quiet for the longest time.But after seeing his father in pain, his face showing no color, Ansel decided to take the risk and ask for Harvey’s help regardless.“No need to be this formal, Ansel,” Harvey replied.“I can’t guarantee I’ll heal your father and bring him back to normal, but I’ll do my best.”“Don’t worry. You’re all brothers in my eyes.”Ansel was utterly grateful.“We can die happy with those words of yours, Sir York!”He then gestured for the driver to head back home.“R
Legends said that the manor was built during the country’s rise for Flutwell’s first-in-command.For almost a hundred years, the manors here had been constantly torn apart and rebuilt, leaving only ten properties around the place.The owners of the manors were no small feat, either.They were either previous first-in-commands of Flutwell, or they had contributed to the city’s development immensely.People without such achievements would have no right to live in these houses.Harvey didn’t care much about the place, but he still understood its importance.The car parked in front of the Number One Manor a few minutes later.Harvey and Ansel then walked out of the car.Harvey looked around curiously and saw exquisite blue bricks and red tiles, perfect for the aesthetics of elderly people.Armed men in uniforms were posted all around the place as well. This was enough to explain a lot of things.“Please, Sir York!”Ansel brought out all sorts of credentials for a man in uniform
Naturally, Colton had already looked up Harvey’s name beforehand. He wouldn’t say such a thing if that wasn’t the case.“You can’t do things properly, but you sure are pretty arrogant, kid!”Colton took a step forward, as if he was trying to suppress Harvey with his aura. He wasn’t enraged because of Harvey’s words, though.“Be efficient while keeping a low profile. This is my principle,” Harvey replied.“I understand what you’re saying…”“But we should always look at the bigger picture!”“If there’s a way to put things right once and for all, why even waste energy in the first place?”“Luring the target before eliminating the entire group…”“That’s the best way to do things, don’t you think?”“That’s what you think! Those are just your own principles!” Colton snapped coldly.“But to me, you’re just being indecisive! In the end, your hesitance caused you more problems!”Ansel was at a complete loss, but he managed to catch up to the conversation.His father and Harvey were
Ansel was in shock, but Colton remained expressionless; nobody knew exactly how he was feeling.He then walked over before tapping Harvey on the shoulder.Harvey stood still, just as expressionless. “I told you Harvey was impressive, Father. Do you believe me now?”Ansel smiled faintly.“Can Sir York have a look at your injury now?”Before Colton spoke up, a voice echoed from outside.“Uncle Torres! Where are you?”“Let’s go to the hall.”Colton clapped his hands.“Sienna’s here.”“She told me she’d find me a well-known doctor a few days ago.”“She was planning to get me fixed.”“Sir York. Sienna’s from the Wright family,” Ansel whispered in Harvey’s ear.“Her father is my father’s good friend. That’s why both our families have a good relationship.”“I didn’t know she was going to come with a doctor. I’m really sorry about that.”“The Wright family?”Harvey smiled after hearing Ansel’s words.“The head of the top ten families in Country H?”“Is Sienna the legendary
Rudolph’s title wasn’t just for show.It was said that he had studied ancient medical skills from both India and the Island Nations, as well as western and eastern medicine. His skills were considered unparalleled.He was also able to filter out most of the useless information and keep only the essence of said medical skills, further pushing him to more lengths.It’s said that even the royal families of Northern Europe would occasionally hire him to treat them, prolonging their lives in the process.However, Rudolph’s price was extremely high; he would charge at least millions of dollars every time.If he had to operate on anyone, it would cost exponentially more.Despite that, his business was still flourishing.Ansel had already heard of the legendary Deathbuster before. Even though the Torres family was quite well-known throughout Flutwell, they were still not good enough to get someone like Rudolph here.If it weren’t for Sienna, Rudolph probably wouldn’t have shown up here
Seeing Rudolph’s disdainful expression…Harvey calmly said, “I’m no doctor.”“And you’re the legendary Deathbuster.”“If you really are that impressive, why couldn’t you fix your own sickness?”“Every time you feel like doing it, you have no strength to actually go through with it. You feel miserable about it, don’t you?”Rudolph’s prideful look froze in an instant.He looked at Harvey, filled with disbelief.He didn’t think that Harvey knew about his unspeakable secret!His reputation would be tarnished if the word about this were to spread!Rudolph furiously changed his expression.“You investigated me?!”Colton and Ansel looked at Rudolph with a strange gaze upon noticing the change in his expression.They naturally knew what Harvey was talking about.Sienna was a little dumbfounded, but then she realized what the conversation was about. She couldn’t help but swallow her spit, her face bright-red.“Why would I? Do you think you’re some hotshot that I’m interested in?”
Rudolph crossed his arms as his assistants pulled out all sorts of precision instruments.“You’ve never seen all these things, have you?”“Let me tell you something: these are special equipment only found in Switzerland! You’d have to work your entire damn life just to have one of these!”“The doctors in my country use real medical skills to save their patients!”“I’ll show you just how good I am right now!”Harvey glanced curiously at the equipment for a short while.“Elder Torres isn’t even sick, but you’ll probably misdiagnose him as having heart failure.”“I’m no doctor, but I can already tell.”“Don’t tell me that you’re going to use all this equipment just to do exactly what I predicted.”Sienna was confused.“You can tell what’s wrong with Uncle Torres?”“You’re not just spouting nonsense, are you?”Harvey chuckled without giving a reply.Rudolph coldly scoffed; he felt utterly embarrassed after all the humiliation from before.He put up a front, and started prepar
Colton chuckled.“Life and death, poor and rich, it’s all destined to be.”“Since there’s not a good chance that I’ll survive, let’s just drop this.”“It’s hard for Mr. Rudolph to come all this way here. Write him a 1.5 million dollar check.”Naturally, Colton didn’t want to take his last breath on the sick bed.Rudolph flashed him a bitter smile.“Thank you for that, Elder Torres…”“But I’m afraid I cannot accept it.”Sienna wasn’t planning to give up just yet.“You’re the youngest director of the International Medical Federation, Mr. Rudolph! You’re a talented man! You’re the Deathbuster! Do you really have no other way of helping Uncle Torres?”“There’s no other way!”Rudolph took a deep breath.“We either take the chance, or we let him die after three months.”“Not just me, even the chairman of the federation won’t be able to help!”Sienna went silent after hearing Rudolph’s words.Harvey smiled calmly and tapped Rudolph’s shoulder.“You have impressive skills, Rudo
