“It really is our first time seeing this guy, Young Master Ernie!“We don’t even know each other!”“That’s right! We have nothing to do with him!”Winston Osborne and the others were utterly shocked after seeing Harvey York slap Ernie Surrey twice.They quickly broke off from Harvey, afraid they also would get dragged down.“Right! Do whatever you want with this bastard!” exclaimed Aliza Howell.“He’s been trying to get together with someone way out of his league!“Just take care of him as you please!”Even Lando Miller crawled out of Harvey’s way as he trembled in fear. If things were to escalate, he would also be taken out.Those people knew that for the princes and young masters, their reputation was much more important than their very lives!Not only would Harvey completely ruin everyone’s chances of turning the tables…He would completely infuriate Ernie as well.Simply put, he would be looking for his death!Why would he do something like this instead of just ending
“Kneel and apologize already!“Do you really want to wait till you screw everything up?!”Winston Osborne looked bitter. He was not worried about Harvey York at all…But the two goddesses.After all, he had been watching those two for a while but had not gotten his hands on them.“That’s right! You wouldn’t want Billie to die with you now, right?!”“When else are you going to kneel if not now?!”“Please! Stop showing off already!”The group desperately tried to convince Harvey, but he simply could not be bothered.He waved his hand before standing in front of Billie Higgs and Judith Pedler.“I haven’t seen a lot of princes and young masters in my life, but I’ve seen enough.“You’re not that impressive compared to the rest of them.“Even the ones better than you were all taken care of.“Who do you think you are?“Can you even handle the consequences if I decide to go against you?”Harvey showed a righteous look.Winston and the others were shaking in anger after hearing
The entire room was dead silent.Besides Harvey York, only Ernie Surrey and his subordinates remained inside.They were sizing up Harvey with playful expressions.Nobody in the outskirts would dare to go up against people of their caliber.It would not be exciting for them to crush any random person…But an ignorant fool from a big city like Harvey was different.“Drink up as much as you want.“You might not get another chance after this.One of Ernie’s subordinates pulled out a revolver before leaving a single bullet inside. Then, he spun the cylinder around and threw the revolver on the marble table in front of Harvey.Harvey was expected to play the Russian Roulette.“I’m warning you, kid.“Kneel and beg for mercy, and you might just be spared.“If you keep whining, you probably won’t even know how you end up dead.“It’s always better to survive instead, no?”Camilia and the other women looked down on Harvey disdainfully.They believed that real men could suffer humil
Harvey York picked up the call while completely ignoring the others around him.“Is this Master York? It’s Wildcat. I’m in front of your residence area right now.”A respectful voice was heard.Naturally, Wildcat would not dare show a hint of disrespect to a man who could save Lennon Surrey.“I’m not there yet. I’ll be there soon.”Wildcat froze.“Where are you now? I can fetch you if you’d like.”Harvey thought of something as he glanced at Ernie holding a revolver.“I’m at the Gangnam Outskirts right now. I ran into some trouble. I’ll get there when I’m done.”“The Gangnam Outskirts?“You should know that your problems are the Surrey family’s too!“As long as you say the word, I’ll handle it for you immediately!”Harvey smiled.“There’s no need. There’s someone named Ernie Surrey. He wants to play Russian Roulette with me.“I’ll go after having a round with him.”Wildcat froze in place after hearing that name.“Is he the man with dreadlocks, Master York?”Harvey size
“Family driver?!”Everyone looked at each other before Camilia and the women cackled up a storm.‘He thinks Ernie will explain himself to a driver?‘What a joke!‘What influence does a driver have in such a big family?‘The Surrey family probably has a hundred different drivers already!’Ernie Surrey smiled playfully.“I do want to see which driver would dare go against me!”In just three minutes, frantic footsteps were heard outside.The door was kicked open once again.Almost everyone instinctively looked over before a suited man walked inside.He ignored the others when he quickly walked toward Harvey York with his arms folded.“Are you alright, Master York?”“What do you think?” replied Harvey.Wildcat smiled.“I’m sure a few small fries wouldn’t be able to scratch you!“Don’t worry! I’ll make sure that you’re satisfied with your explanation!Wildcat shifted his gaze toward Ernie, whose expression slightly changed.“You’ve been a little cocky, Young Master Ernie!
‘What’s with this person anyway?‘How did he even get someone like Ernie Surrey to give in easily?‘He can do whatever he pleases here!‘Then again, if Ernie calls Wildcat his uncle, then the head of the family must be supporting the loser…‘Why would Mr. Lennon go against his own descendant for an outsider?‘This is simply ridiculous…’Harvey York curiously glanced at Wildcat. The man must have had a high status in his family after all…“How will you deal with the situation next, Master York?“What if I just break his arm as compensation?”Wildcat intently stared at Harvey after scolding Ernie.Camilia and the others’s faces instantly turned pale.Only Ernie was showing a strange expression.He was not stupid. After all, he was an experienced man.He figured that Wildcat was only trying to protect him. If Wildcat wanted to, he could have broken his arm without any prior warning.Wildcat did this because Harvey had something on the family. That was the only reason he acte
Even before Ernie Surrey had a chance to react, Harvey York had already pulled the trigger right on his head.Click!No bullet flew out of the barrel.‘It’s empty?!‘How?!‘He managed to survive a one-in-sixth chance?!’Before the others reacted, Harvey threw the revolver in front of Ernie with a smile on his face.“Your turn.”Cold sweats were dripping down his back. He knew the next shot was loaded.He slowly raised the revolver from the table while he shivered in fear. He would not dare place the barrel on his head, no matter what.“What? Are you scared?Harvey stepped forward before patting Ernie’s face while pointing at his head.“If you can’t do that, why don’t you see if you can shoot me down instead?”After hearing Harvey’s words and seeing his cold glare, Ernie instinctively shuddered as soon as he had the same idea.He instantly slammed his knees to the ground.“This was all my fault, Master York!“I did this!“Please! Pretend I did nothing! I beg of you!”H
Camilia finally spoke after a long while.“Young Master Ernie, why…?”Ernie Surrey let out a bitter chuckle.“You don’t get it, Camilia. The waters here run deep.“You get to see me show off every chance I get, but do you really think I’m actually someone important compared to the rest of the family?”“How are you not?” Camilia debated respectfully.“I am, but I’m also not.Ernie heaved a sigh.“I am a direct descendant with immense authority…“But other than my grandfather, there are two people that I would never dare go against.“My sister, then Wildcat!”“What?! That’s him?!Camilia gasped.“The legendary man who single-handedly destroyed the outskirts’ Desert Knights?!“The one who dealt with the Mountaintop Bandits?!”Ernie heaved another sigh.“That’s him.“And for him to willingly become that kid’s driver and bodyguard, do you really think he’s just some ordinary guy?”Camilia and the others felt cold shivers run their spines.“Is that kid actually someone wit
"That's right!" exclaimed Geoffrey. "You should come down now or let him get closer to check up on you!""Geoffrey, Neve. We have known each other for so many years. I know you don't want me to leave," replied Vaida, sighing. "But, do you think I'll believe you when you look for a random man to be my man of destiny? If a fake can replace the one I seek, I won't be trying to find him for three lifetimes, right?"Please, just ignore me and let me go in peace. Even if you can save me now, can you save me forever?"Obviously, while Vaida had a mental breakdown, she no longer recognized Harvey and forgot what had happened between them, but she was still a wise woman. She could tell that Geoffrey and Neve dragged Harvey here so that she would not die."Vaida! Don't forget that you're the daughter of the previous mayor! In my heart, you’re the real princess of Grand City!" Geoffrey roared. "I swore to him all those years ago that I would find the man of your destiny. I won't lie about som
"No! There is! Not only are you fated to cross paths, but such a fate is inevitable!" Geoffrey suddenly cried out. "Vaida, I managed to do as promised and found the man who is your destiny when I went to Wolsing last time! That's him! He's the man of your destiny! I won't have any objection even if you want to make your marriage official!"Geoffrey immediately rushed over to Harvey and pushed Harvey to Vaida. Harvey was stunned when he heard it, his eye twitching.What?Something about being the man of her destiny?Geoffrey did not give Harvey any time to react and winked at Harvey. "Mr. Representative, why don't you go speak with Vaida? The two of you promised to be together for three lifetimes before the Rock of Fate! You shouldn't miss each other now that you've been reunited!"When Harvey heard what Geoffrey had said, he was full of questions. Although he could understand every word, he did not understand what Geoffrey meant by that. Even Neve was so shocked that she subconsci
After Geoffrey had left, Harvey then walked into the courtyard. He looked around. Once he was sure there were no hidden cameras, he got into the bathroom and showered. Then, he changed into a new outfit.Too many things happened while he was on his way here, and he had to review everything. Only then would he be able to see the big picture of what had happened today.After that, he found the beverages meant for him. Then, he walked to the courtyard's edge, looking at the faraway scenery. The courtyard was built by the hills and a water source. In addition to the bridges and streams, he could see the plains in the mountains. He could even see the grass swaying as the wind blew.At the edge of the grassy plains were steep cliffs. The Fosters had built several gazebo-like structures there, which were quite terrifying. Harvey was curious and gave these cliffs a better look. That should be the edge of Grand City. He could see an endless ocean with crashing waves from here.Harvey could
Harvey saw Geoffrey already waiting there when he alighted the car. When Geoffrey saw Harvey, he was apologetic about the entire matter. Harvey did not need to say anything, and Geoffrey walked over, saying, "Friend… No, Mr. Representative. We will give you an explanation that you'll be happy with."Feel free to stay in the Foster family's estate. If anything happens again, you do not need to say anything. Our family will take full responsibility for this!"Harvey sighed. "There's no need for this, Geoffrey. My visit to Grand City will affect plenty of people's interests. It's normal for them to try and stop me from coming no matter what.""It's not that you're affecting many people's interests. Most importantly, you have affected one faction's interests," Geoffrey said as he gestured and led Harvey into the estate. As he guided Harvey in, he said, "The entire Grand City now knows your reason for coming to Grand City is to take on the Three Halls. What you're doing is taking away
Harvey smiled. "It's fine. But you do have to give me an explanation. Of course, if you can't, I'll get one myself."After that, Harvey could not be bothered with the same topic. He looked at the stone door and asked, "Why don't you introduce this to me?"Neve was slightly taken aback but still answered, "You know that Grand City does not belong in this world. In short, it exists in its own pocket dimension. It was said that Grand City's creator created this pocket dimension after he had achieved unison with Nature and before he stepped into the void."This is one of the few entrances into the Grand City, but it's the only entrance that everyone from the city can use. If you have the city's entry pass, then you can freely travel in and out. Of course, if your ancestry is rooted in Grand City, you can also use it."Harvey nodded. He was quite curious… When one reached the end of the path of martial arts and reached unity between man and nature, would one have this kind of power? Cou
No matter how Harvey looked at Vaida, he could tell she was no ordinary warrior. Her decisiveness and style proved to him that she was highly experienced in battles. He could even see some signs of her being in the military.Harvey was even more curious about Vaida's identity when he thought of that.But he knew it was not the time to think about such things. Harvey picked up a gun from the ground amidst the chaos and started to aim and shoot in front of him.If Vaida's attacks were all about affecting a wide area, then Harvey's attacks were all about accuracy. While he looked casual, whenever he pulled the trigger, an enemy would flop in a crumpled mess after each shot. The long-haired man could only watch with a dark expression.Despite bringing along an army of assassins with heavy firepower, his forces were being decimated."Darn it…!" The long-haired man let out a roar. "Deploy the heavy weapons!"Before he could finish yelling, he shuddered. There was disbelief in his eyes.
After eliminating Ruins and Ashes, Harvey did not waste another second, slammed his foot into a table, and sent it flying with a smile. Contrary to everyone's expectation, he did not leave the fire escape. Instead, he jumped out of a window and immediately ruined the long-haired man's plans.However, it was obvious that there were guards outside the window as well. As soon as they saw Harvey appear, the armed men were only slightly stunned before they aimed their guns at Harvey and pulled their triggers.Harvey immediately side-stepped, grabbed the fire extinguisher the cafe prepared for an emergency, and started spraying it all around him. Half the street was instantly covered in white as the bullets missed their marks, but several tourists who did not manage to escape in time were hit. The tourists cried, and it simply made the assassins even more aggressive.In just a short while, all these people would lose their lives.Harvey's eyes turned cold when he realized how nonchalant
However, before the Islander woman could swing her sword down, she could feel a sharp pain on her throat as a red dot appeared. Then, she could even feel all her strength disappear. She collapsed to the ground in disbelief, unable to make a sound. It was obvious that this woman could not understand how she was killed even moments before she died.The waiters and tourists only realized what was happening when they saw this moment. They screamed as they quickly ran toward the exits, throwing the entire Lucky Café into chaos. Harvey ignored all the chaos, picked up the sword from the woman's hand, and continued walking with a calm expression. At this time, a long-robed man and woman walked toward him among the crowds. Both of them looked quite strange. The man was missing an ear, while the woman was missing an eye. However, their energy signatures were terrifying, and they seemed very powerful."It's the Golden Triangle's assassin duo, Ruins and Ashes!""I heard the two could even de
While Hyperborea was a small city, as it was located on the nape of Snowdrake Mountain, it was also one of the most famous tourist cities in the country. Around 30 million travelers came to Hyperborea throughout the year, enriching their economies. However, it was somewhat difficult to manage the city.More than 90 percent of the population here came from other cities. So, it was going to be difficult to find anything about anyone.Besides being a tourist city, Hyperborea was also a location where people from all walks of life congregate.Harvey glanced around as he sat in the corner. He noticed that other than travelers, most of the people here were foreigners who spoke with foreign accents. Many of them carried firearms in secret, and some were obviously trained in martial arts. This place was destined to be different from other cities.While it was a tourist city on the surface, this place hid an entire underworld.'No wonder Grand City set its entrance in a place like this. It
