Even though Smoke was filled with hate and resentment, he dared not cause any more trouble.He had no choice but to crawl to the side and make way for Harvey.He knew that if he continued challenging Harvey at this point, Rachel would definitely beat him to death.“Harvey! How dare you cripple my fiance’s subordinates?!”“You’re even here with a coffin! You’re ruining my engagement banquet!”Emily’s face darkened in an instant when she saw Harvey walking in.“You think we’re easy targets?!”“Go! Kill him!”No matter the case, Koen was still the Benett family’s son-in-law.Disrespecting him would mean disrespecting the Benett family.Thus, Emily had no choice but to take action.Besides, she was terrified of Harvey saying things that couldn’t be made public. She wanted Harvey dead as soon as possible.“Die!”Eight experts from the Benett family pulled out their golden swords and pounced at Harvey without hesitation.Bam!Rachel laughed nonchalantly. She grabbed the sword
“Yeah! Why would my fiance do something like that?!”“He told everyone to let you off the hook for the sake of the country and its people, too!”“He’s such a generous man! Don’t you think it’s shameful to slander him like that?!”“Besides, it’s your problem that Amber and the others were forced to be in deep sleep! That has nothing to do with us!”“Don’t think you can say whatever you want just because you have some fighters with you!”Clap, clap, clap!Harvey clapped, his face filled with admiration.“No wonder everyone’s calling you two the world’s best cheating couple!”“Looks like it’s all true, after all!”“It’s my first time seeing someone lie through their teeth like that.”Koen’s face darkened instantly.“You’ll pay for saying things like that, Harvey!”“Have you thought of the consequences for saying that without proof?!”Harvey smiled.“Proof? Didn’t you two idiots already give that to me?”“When did I say that Amber and the others were poisoned? When did I say
“Maiden Garcia had a chat with me today.”“She said that she wants me to join her. In exchange, she’ll give me ten billion dollars, three hundred acres of land, and the title of Brahmin!”“She told me you’re already on their side too.”“The royal family of India even gave you the title of Kshatriya!”“And for that, you got your cousin to fake an apology to Amber and the others in the Martial Hall.”“You made her mix the Life Elixir into the tea before she fed it to the young talents,” Harvey said calmly.“At the same time, the royal family agreed to give you the title of Brahmin if you keep devoting yourself to India while lurking in Country H.”“That said, they never expected Zoe to sell you out, no?”“Not only did she give me a lot of proof, but all the conversations you had with the Indians were recorded as well.”“Tell me. Aren’t you scared of dragging your entire family down for conspiring with the enemy?”“Huh?!”After looking at Harvey’s calm look on his face, everyon
Koen waved his hand, gesturing to his subordinates to shut the door.He then took a step forward and glared at Harvey.“As far as I know, it hasn’t even been a few weeks since you’ve known Amber and the others.”“I’m pretty sure the relationship between you people isn’t as close as you portray it to be.”“You’re here to get back at me for them? What a joke!”“In this day and age, every man fights for himself! Do you really think I’d believe your stupid lies?”“I know exactly why you’re here right now!”“As long as you ignore Amber’s incident and forget about what happened today…”“As long as you don’t say a single word about this…”“I have a check worth one hundred and fifty million dollars for you. Consider this a gift for our friendship!”Koen painstakingly pulled out a check.This was given to him by the Indians…Yet, he had to pull it out before he could even warm it up in his pocket; he was completely infuriated by this.That said, he had no other choice.If he didn’
Emily glared fiercely at Harvey.“Don’t think you can boss us around just because you have the footage!”“Don’t think that these people will side with you, either!”“Let me tell you something! They’re all related to me!”“No matter what we do, they’ll never stand on your side! Rather, they’d forget everything that ever happened!”Emily looked around her with a cold gaze.“Come on! Tell this young man what you saw and heard!”Naturally, Emily wanted to test Golden Palace’s authority and status in Flutwell.The guests exchanged glances before shaking their heads.“Nothing! We don’t know anything!”Emily's face darkened in an instant.“How could you not?! You saw this man here hurting everyone, didn’t you?!”“He even conspired with the enemy to poison Amber and the other young talents right in front of our faces!”“We need to take revenge for them!”The guests nodded in unison upon hearing those words.They weren’t idiots; more importantly, they had an extremely good relati
“Another thing: I’ll give you one day to bring me the antidote of the Life Elixir.”“If I still don’t see the antidote by then, I’ll make sure that you burn!”“Of course, you don’t have to believe me. You can try resisting, if you like.”“But if you do, you won’t get anything good out of it…”“Even if you’re from Golden Palace.”Harvey shot them a cold glare before walking out slowly of the door with his arms crossed.Koen gritted his teeth when he saw Harvey acting so arrogantly.“You think you’re impressive, Harvey?!”“You’re making us kneel on Flutwell’s Peak and bring the antidote?!”“You threaten Golden Palace too?!”“Who do you think you are?!”“Do you even have the right to do that?!”“Let me warn you! You’re dead when I report this to my brother Adrian!”“You’ll be the one ripped to shreds—not us!” Emily yelled, her face fierce.“You think Golden Palace is just bluffing?!”“It’s already too late for you to kneel!”“But we don’t have to deal with you right now…”
“First things first,” Harvey said calmly.“I’m the one who reported the incident. Amber and the others were poisoned.”Ansel chuckled bitterly.“Judging from what you told me, the tea they drank must’ve been digested for quite a while already.”“We’ll get Mr. Rudolph and his team to extract their gastric juices for testing.”“But even if we have proof, this is just physical evidence; we’re lacking any testimonies.”“We’ve already sent our men to talk to Koen and Emily.”“However, every single one of them was chased out of Golden Palace!”“At the same time, they’re accusing you of hurting people!”“Because of this, the incident was reported to the highest order; a few elders of the royal court sent word, saying that the country’s reputation is involved and that they want this incident solved as soon as possible.”“If Koen and Emily did poison Amber and the others and conspire with the enemy, they’ll be heavily punished!”“Golden Palace would be dealt with accordingly for cove
“With you here, Sir York, those people have no chance!”“That said, they’re extremely cunning so you should be careful.”After reminding Harvey of the danger, Ansel changed the subject.“Right, Princess Wright knows about the situation as well. She’s furious about it too.”“She was angry about the young talents of Country H being in such a sorry state.”“It’s a shame that she has an extraordinary identity; she isn’t allowed to interfere.”“That was why she asked me to tell you something: if you need any help, as long as it’s within her power, she’ll do everything to lend you a hand.”As the Big Boss’s daughter, Sienna’s identity was quite extraordinary.If she was involved in such a controversial war, not only would she cause a huge uproar, but the Indians would probably find another excuse to blame on.But since Sienna asked someone else to send word, this was enough to show her feelings for her country and its people.“Thank the princess for me. Tell her that I can handle t
"Or maybe you forgot who you are, Jesse. How dare you conspire with the Islanders!" When Jesse heard Harvey's words, he narrowed his eyes. Harvey's questioning was sharp and dug into his heart. However, from Harvey's angle, he was not exactly wrong.Jesse took a deep breath and said, "I'm not going to lie to you. The Xavier family as a whole has its own considerations, as well as my own personal thoughts."But you are gravely mistaken. The Xaviers aren't conspiring with the Islanders. However, we simply don't want you to go to our family and mess things up before Yvonne is married. So… Harvey, stay here."On the one hand, this is for Yvonne's own good if you really care about her. On the other hand, isn't this my way of protecting you too? You can't imagine just how many people outside want you dead…"Firstly, I can understand why because I exposed just how shameless families like you are, despite my own contempt for it." Harvey shrugged. "But I don't understand your second point.
"We meet again, Harvey. What? Do you think Dragon Cell's fried chicken is to your taste, so you came in for a stroll?"At the same time when Donald was being killed, Jesse walked into the Dragon Palace's interrogation room and watched Harvey enjoying his fried chicken meal with a hint of helplessness on his face."I didn't want to, but they got me with some concrete evidence, so I have no choice," Harvey said as he put down his fork before turning over to Jesse. "I've got a few things I want to ask you, but you're quite hard to get a hold of. But I think it should be quite easy to see you here, so I came in.""Questions for me?" Jesse asked, confused. "That's why you're here?""What else?" Harvey said with a shrug. "Oh, right. I also want to see whether Wolsing's Dragon Cell has already completely fallen and if they can still uphold their justice and prove the ingenuousness of the innocents."If you can't prove my innocence in the shortest possible time, then I believe that Dragon
Liza chuckled when he saw Donald, who was so confident in his abilities. "If you put some more effort into it, with your abilities, there's no doubt that Harvey will die a terrible death, am I right?"Donald rubbed his swollen face. "That little bastard hit my face until it's all swollen. Of course, I must get back at him a hundred, no, a thousand times! Otherwise, all this pain and humiliation will be for nothing."Liza bowed. "He deserves it all." "Alright, I'll get some rest. After everything, I can feel my bones aching," said Donald as he set down his glass and walked to his bedroom.But the instant he went inside, he turned around to look at Liza. "Contact Mitsuki and ask if the Island Nation still has any other evidence. If there's none, ask them if she can fabricate something concrete soon. If we want to make this case as solid as possible, we also need other evidence! And I believe they have already prepared it.""Understood!" Liza nodded and immediately left to arrange i
Just as Harvey was imprisoned because of Rita's testimony, Donald returned to his mansion with a pleasing smile.While he had lived overseas, he had plenty of assets in Wolsing.On the one hand, it was to make some money. On the other hand, it was to have a place to stay. And his favorite place was Arcadia Garden located in the third rim of Wolsing. It was not spacious and had three courtyards, and the architecture was quite old, as if it had not been renovated for decades.That being said, Arcadia Garden's design was quite old, but all the antique, the pottery, the statues… All of them were pretty valuable. If one were to live in a place like this, they would no doubt lose themselves in a life of decadence, becoming full of themselves.At this time, someone pushed open the door into Arcadia Garden with a creak.Then, Donald walked into the estate with a gratified expression, sitting on the sofa in the living room."Hahahaha! What a show! Isn't that Harvey quite bombastic? Isn't
"Now that we have all the evidence, why don't you just surrender?" Mitsuki looked at Harvey with a smirk.Harvey calmly replied, "Firstly, I have no interest in framing you Islanders. Because logically speaking, the weak will frame the strong. In my eyes, all of you Islanders are nothing. You're not even on my radar."Secondly, if I really want to kill Wilhelm, will I be so stupid to kill him just after he and I were in a scuffle earlier? Can't I wait for a few more days?"Thirdly, you showed a fingerprint and said all the evidence is clear. But you can lift my fingerprints from my residence and my office."Fourthly, you Islanders have just used Donald and Wilhelm to threaten me, so they'll make me give up on the duel. But when that fails, I'm suddenly accused of being a murderer, as if I'll go to prison at any time."There are too many coincidences. I believe the one who killed Wilhelm is someone from Island Nation, so that you can frame me.""Us? Framing you?" Mitsuki said as i
Harvey did not expect Charlotte to be willing to fight the Shinto Way for him until the very end. However, he did not want Charlotte to fight for him now.Looking at the crowd gathering around them, itching to get a fight and the people from Dragon Palace… Then he noticed Mitsuki's deep smile…Harvey sighed.He did not mind fighting the Islanders here.But if he fought with the people from Dragon Palace because of him, no matter who won, it would be a disgrace if news of this spread. Harvey raised his right hand and said, "Charlotte, no need to fight here. Didn't Mitsuki say she has enough evidence to the point that the officers from Dragon Cell are with her? If that's the case, then let's investigate. I believe I can prove my own innocence.Harvey ignored them and left the ICU.When Mitsuki and Donald saw what had happened, they looked and smiled deeply at each other and quickly followed him.-Half an hour later. In the interrogation room, Dragon Cell Wolsing branch.As th
When Harvey looked at how righteous Mitsuki was trying to portray herself, he was unsure how to react.Meanwhile, Donald immediately gave Mitsuki a thumbs up and said, "Just as expected from one of the three primary disciples of the Shinto Way, Mitsuki! Not only can you fight, but you're also guided by righteousness! With Mitsuki willing to preside over what's right, this means that there's still justice in this world. It also means that in Country H, those with power will still be punished!"Then, Donald gave Harvey a complacent smile, feeling that Harvey would have to submit even if he refused.Charlotte frowned when she saw what had happened.The Islanders were known for their particularity. They would never act rashly before they had all the evidence.However, from Mitsuki's reaction… Could it be that Harvey really did kill Wilhelm? But Charlotte instantly felt that it was impossible. For someone like Harvey, if he really had something against Wilhelm, he would handle it on th
"You…" Donald was so furious that he could not stop shaking. "You're making things up, Harvey! Even if I wanted to do something like that, I wouldn't have killed Wilhelm! He's a dear friend!"Then, Harvey said, "Does that matter to a person like you? You can even kill your own father as long as the price is right, much less someone unrelated to you."Donald could not stop shuddering when he heard that. However, he knew that Harvey was not completely wrong."Mr. Harvey, are all people from your country just like you? Refusing to admit to the crimes you commit? But I have proof that you're the one who killed the deacon!" A cold voice came from the other side of the corridor at this time."We went to the crime scene where William was murdered just now. We found a longsword with your fingerprint on it. This is the smoking gun. What else do you have to say?"Harvey turned and looked at the owner of the voice. He was one of the three primary disciples of Shinto Way, Mitsuki. She walked
"Donald! You're from Country A! Now that you're here from your so-called cultured country, you should understand something simple… You need to provide proof for everything to determine one's crime!" Charlotte spoke to Donald with an icy stare."For you to accuse our representative Harvey of murder without any proof, what you're doing is slander! I understand you're angry because you lost a close friend, so I don't blame you for the outrage. But if this happens again, don't say I didn't warn you!" Charlotte said that and placed her hand on the hilt of her sword, as if she was willing to fight if they refused to back down.After Charlotte had done this, plenty of figures appeared all over the hospital. It was obvious they were all enforcer students from the alliance. When they saw Charlotte had many more people on their side, Donald and his entourage were furious. They glared at Charlotte brutally, as if wanting to attack, but chose not to since Charlotte had more people on her side.
