Mandy Zimmer took a deep breath.“This is the difference between us!“You don’t care about that! But I do!”“That’s why you’re such a failure! You’re the head of the ninth branch, yet you’re constantly being toyed by the higher-ups!“You’re naive!Amora Foster had her opinions about Mandy.“I’m asking you one last time. Are you calling him or not?”“I will not!” Mandy replied slowly.“Not only that, I’ll give a fair statement to your family about this!”Slap!Amora slammed Mandy onto the table with another slap across the face.“In three minutes, I have no choice but to go further!”Amora clapped her hands.Two fierce men took off their suits with wretched chuckles.A few others started setting up their cameras. Their actions needed absolutely no explanation!“You’re shameless, Amora!”Mandy trembled. She did not expect Amora to be capable of doing such a thing.“I’m shameless?Amora chuckled with a twisted expression.“I was being nice, yet you didn’t even respect m
“Let her go!”“Let Ms. Amora go!”The fierce men in suits charged forward.Some had firearms with safeties off while pointed at Harvey York.Others tried to snatch Amora Foster away but could not find a good angle.The atmosphere tensed up instantly. A fight was imminent.Harvey would never let these people get an opportunity to take action after all.The experts who got closer were immediately sent flying after getting slapped. Their faces were clearly swollen when they fell flat to the ground.“Let her go, Harvey!“You’re dead if you don’t!”Charlize pulled out her firearm before pointing it toward Harvey.Bam!Harvey exerted more force on his foot, making Amora’s face closer to the ground.Then, he calmly glanced at the people around him.“Step down, or your lady gets it!”The fierce men looked at each other. They wanted to save Amora but could not help but hesitate after seeing Harvey’s skill.Amora was already calm at this moment. She coldly chuckled while complete
Mandy Zimmer felt sluggish after seeing such a ruthless and decisive woman.Harvey York, on the other hand, was feeling quite impressed.Not only was Amora ruthless to others, but she was even more so to herself.People like that were only destined to rise to power.“I see your sincerity now…Harvey slowly walked toward Amora before fixing her arms back with a gentle smile.“It’s simple for me to deal with your father’s curse.“That said, no matter how generous I am, I can’t just do that for free after everything you two have done to me, right?”Amora showed mixed emotions before taking a deep breath.“Name anything you want, Master York!”Harvey pulled out three fingers.“I have three simple conditions.“Number one, I want Brayan to go into hiding after he’s treated. I don’t want to see him in every possible industry there is.“Number two, I want half of the Foster family’s resources, including riches and connections…”Amora’s expression changed.“Do you want to tear th
Amora Foster finally closed her mouth.A sense of loyalty immediately replaced the vengeance against Harvey York. She decided to go down the same path with him till the bitter end.“Thank you for trusting me, Master York!” she exclaimed exhilarated.“Then again, I don’t think I have enough power to convince the entire family…“Just like you said, I’m afraid the family won’t support my improper rise.”Harvey patted Amora’s face with a smile.“Don’t forget, I’m the city’s best geomancy expert.“You’re destined to be in a high position.“Be confident in yourself.“Go back and talk to your father.“Tell him to listen to you if he wants to live the rest of his life in glory and riches.“This’ll be beneficial for all three of us.”Amora decisively waved her hand, completely ignoring her injuries.“Don’t worry, Sir York!“I won’t let my major shareholder be disappointed!”Then, she turned around and left.As expected from a ruthless person like her.Mandy Zimmer was shocked w
“It’s a lot of money and resources. This amount of riches can make an ordinary man rival a country…“But do I look like someone who even needs that?”Amora Foster froze with a peculiar expression.“It doesn’t matter if you’re trying to fool me.“As long as you do my job properly, I can even help the family during trying times as the major shareholder.“If you do go against me, I can easily take control of the family just like I did your father.“If I want to, I can also remove the family from the top ten families.“Do you understand me?”With Amora’s attitude, she would be jumping around the place while she screamed at Harvey York for saying those words…But for some reason, she believed what Harvey had just said was the truth!She believed that if he wanted to, he could destroy the family within a matter of minutes!“I understand!” she exclaimed, with her eyes twitching.“Thank you for telling me this.”“Good.Harvey lightly nodded before knocking on the table.“Castiel
Amora Foster’s face darkened.“And what if I don’t?”“He won’t die,” replied Harvey York.“But the curse will enter his body again.“He’ll become a vegetable for the rest of his life if that’s the case.“Don’t worry though. I’ll get Castiel Foster to visit every year.“The service is free, of course. Maybe treat Castiel to a meal so you two have an excuse to hang out.“I’m pretty generous anyway.”Amora showed a perplexed expression.“Thank you, Master York,” she said quietly.She was a wise person. She knew exactly why Harvey was doing all this.The Foster family had no chance to go against Harvey any longer.After all, Brayan Foster could only rely on him if he wanted to live a good life.That said, Amora was not disdained by this at all.Her rise was too abrupt. The rest of the family would not hesitate to oppose her.Harvey’s simple move was enough to keep Brayan alive.Since that was the case, Brayan would also give it his all to keep Amora in her position.Simply
“The Foster family’s completely useless now?“Amora Foster’s heading back to Shaddol as we speak?Blaine John was filled with disbelief.“Cedric Lopez was crushed, and now he’s also demanding the John family for an explanation?”Kensley Quinlan covered the red palm print on her beautiful face with her hands as she took a deep breath.“That’s right.“And if I’m not mistaken, Amora’s rise to power is also directly involved with Harvey York.“She’s probably cooperating with him right now.“It’ll be hard to cause him any trouble after this…“Young Master John, I’m afraid we’ll have to postpone our arrangements for him for a while…“Should we report this to the higher-ups and ask for more backup?”Blaine showed a gloomy expression.“Report? How are we supposed to report this?“Tell them that we brought all of our forces here just for that live-in son-in-law to beat the shit out of all of them?“Do you think you can report something like this?”Kensley froze.Just as Blaine s
Harvey York froze before he burst out laughing, wondering if he was destined to play as someone else’s boyfriend recently.Penny Jackson came looking for him before. Cedric Lopez came looking for trouble after that.Since Kairi Patel asked for help, it was probably quite a big deal.“What? You’re refusing even though you gave Penny a hand?”Kairi was naturally well-informed. She scooched beside Harvey before whispering into his ear.“She begged for you to pretend to be his boyfriend…“But I’m different.“If you know the person I hate…“You’d be the one begging instead.”Harvey clicked his tongue.“I don’t know about that. I’m not the type to beg.”“That person belongs to the Tsuchimikado family. He was an exchange student from Kyoto University.“His name is Abe Masato.“Not only is he currently the brightest new star of the Island Nations’ political field and the youngest advisor there is, but it’s said that he’s also one of the most outstanding onmyojis of his family.“I
"Your life is worth so little and you want to drag us along to hell? Who do you think you are? All of you are just the same! Selfish to the core!" the woman yelled at Harvey. It was clear that no matter what Harvey did, she wouldn't like it.Harvey glanced at her and said, "We can forget a moment about how your Mr. Sverker is the one who wanted to die alongside me out of shame and anger, let's talk about you. Who else can you blame but yourself by wasting time here instead of running? Not to mention, he can't do anything to me even if he can slash time and the universe."You have overestimated Sverker. He's nothing but trash. I simply wanted to see how powerful the Sword Style Origin's technique is." Harvey then gave Sverker a look. "But at this level, I can easily dispel it with just one strike.""You…" Sverker was so angry that he shuddered. He wasn't going to waste any more time. He gritted his teeth and once again slashed at where Harvey was standing."Timely Slash!"A
"Is that right?" Harvey asked the woman.He looked at Sverker's dark expression."Oh, he's being that nice? Why not give me a few more concessions? Why don't you go easy on me and miss all three slashes?""Damn you! Damn you all!" Sverker's expression turned dark by Harvey's snickering. He pounced forward again. In just an instant, he already appeared before Harvey. His body suddenly swayed and separated into eight afterimages; all of them instantly slashed from all eight directions."Earthly Slash!"Whoosh!As Sverker made that attack, a screeching sound filled the entire marsh. Sverker attacked Harvey like a flash of lightning. The moment the blade almost reached Harvey, a dreadful aura expanded from it, as if a black light was covering the surface of the blade.The attack seemed to have come from the depths of Hell itself, carrying the wrath of countless ghosts.Harvey's expression was cold as his fist turned into a palm strike, and he attacked straight ahead. His attack w
"Idiot!" Sverker smiled coldly as his figure flashed as he pounced forth like a bolt of lightning. The sword in his hand was immediately pulled out from its sheath, like a shooting star across the sky.Compared to the attack just now, this attack was simply and much more direct. There wasn't even much strength behind it. However, those in the know would know that an attack like this was the most powerful.Sverker believed he could easily kill Harvey on the spot."So what if you defeated all the six schools? So what if you defeated all the prodigies from Country I? So what if you defeated Mark?" Sverker smiled coldly as he attacked. "All the so-called True Warriors were joking to me… Because I am the one who kills True Warriors!" Sverker smiled coldly as he unleashed his first strike."Heavenly Slash!" A scarlet light suddenly flashed through Sverker's blade. Harvey raised his head; the attack that was going to split the sky had arrived. Before the blade even reached h
"You're good… Very good!" There was shock in Sverker's eyes. "I don't want to admit it, but I have to. Country H really is a good place to give birth to someone like you. In twenty years…no, maybe in ten years, you'd be able to comprehend how to reach Unity between Nature and Man. In another fifty years, maybe you can even take that final step and ascend into the void!"Unfortunately, you met me. I will end your legend here. If it isn't because we each serve our own masters, I want to let you live and see just how far you can reach."Sverker's figure disappeared and then reappeared where he was standing earlier.One of the women became extremely excited when she saw this. She seemed to be trained in martial arts a little. "Here it is! Mr. Sverker is serious now! He's really making his move!"All the other women were shocked. When they exchanged glances, all they could see was the surprise in each other's eyes.Sverker used the legendary Sonic Blade already, but even that was
"Don't tell me you'll become more confident with these women cheering for you from the side," Harvey said, completely unaffected by the women's words. Instead, he even teased Sverker for it.Sverker used these women to strike at his morale, so Harvey wouldn't pull his punches. While the two of them hadn't crossed swords, their fight had begun from the moment they met."You have quite a sharp tongue!" Sverker said with a snort. He waved his hands, signaling the women to stop. After that, his right hand slowly reached for the hilt of his sword sheathed by his waist. He narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey. "You're quite arrogant! I really hope that you can still be as arrogant once I cleave you in half!"Harvey shrugged. "I think you're the one being arrogant here. Normally speaking, you should be the one begging for your life. Your so-called chivalry is to bend your knee to your betters, isn't it?""Fool!" Sverker cried; Harvey's words hit a nerve, and his right hand sudde
"Sverker?" Harvey said calmly. "If I remember correctly, this is the title of a mass murderer from the Island Nation that died in our hands. For you to give yourself the same name… Do you think you'll die just like that mass murderer in my hands?"Sverker was slightly stunned when he heard what Harvey had to say. Then, he laughed. "Die in your hands? You? Aren't you overestimating yourself a little too much? Do you think you're invincible after defeating all the prodigies of Country I and the Island Nation's Sword Saints?"I admit you're very impressive to have obtained the power of a True Warrior at your age, but that doesn't allow you to look down on everything! You're still too young and you don't have enough experience. You don't know just how wide the world is. There are plenty of people in this world who are more powerful than you!"I became a King of Arms when I was twelve, and a True Warrior at the age of eighteen! Since then, I've been trying to comprehend the path to r
"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
