“Really now?Harvey York chuckled.“Come. Tell me what the law means to you.“You distort the truth and exploit people.“And yet you have the gull to tell me you’re from the Border Force?“You’re not afraid of your commanders slapping you around once they know you’re abusing your authority?”“They have nothing to do with you!Samira Lee showed a stern glare before replying.“I’m Commander Hannah’s subordinate! Nobody dares to even go against me!“After all, she’s the top commander of the entire Border Force!“Right! Enough idle talk!“Beating around the bush won’t make your crimes go away!“Just know that if you don’t give up right now, I can shoot you down without repercussions!”Samira’s expression seemed a lot colder than before.No matter the case, she was still here to uphold justice as the deputy of Border Force.And yet, what happened?A mere live-in son-in-law was mansplaining her about the law.What a joke!If it had not been for the people around her and the
Samira Lee’s eyes twitched nonstop.“Do you think I wouldn’t dare?!“You won’t even get a chance to regret this later!”Samira did not even realize just how timid her words were.“Me? Regret?Harvey let out a chuckle.“You’ll be the one doing all that. Not me.“From now on, you’ll regret ever coming here to cause me trouble!”Harvey held Samira’s hand before turning her firearm in another direction.Then, he pressed on her thin and delicate finger, pulling the trigger.Bang bang bang!A series of gunshots were heard. Henrik Higgs and the others were filled with disbelief when they fell to the ground, paralyzed.Henrik even had his hands on his neck. He could not believe Harvey would kill him in front of the public.The expert martial artists and Mutants were showing rage and resentment in their eyes.They thought they had already won as soon as Samira arrived.They never expected things to change so quickly.Not only were they killed off, they even had to die with their
Harvey York went to the police station to report the situation and asked Neil Osborne to investigate the matter.He told everything from start to finish without hiding any detail.Neil’s expression worsened the longer he heard Harvey’s testimony. He simply had no proof to lock Harvey behind bars.After all, judging from his testimony and the evidence on-scene, his actions were because of self-defense.In Country H, he would naturally be declared innocent.As an impartial man, Neil would release Harvey no matter how he looked at the situation.Harvey was prepared to be locked behind bars for a few weeks…But he was utterly impressed with Neil’s approach.After returning to the No. 1 villa, Harvey decided to rest while waiting for someone to turn up and apologize.After all, someone needed to give him an explanation for the whole situation.If nobody came to do that, he would naturally demand one himself.While he quietly waited for something to happen, Amos Augustus was in hi
“But Young Master! Harvey only got lucky!“He can’t beat you with true strength!”Elaine Garcia quickly pampered Amos Augustus after confessing to her mistakes.She knew why Amos was furious. Other than the fact that the Smalt Sect’s plans had been constantly leaked, she had made herself seem like an idiot.Serval and Stinger pretended not to hear anything.They had no right to speak since they had also suffered losses against Harvey York.That said, they knew full well that Harvey had not taken them down with pure luck.‘The young master wouldn’t blatantly believe her, right?’While Serval and Stinger secretly made fun of Elaine, Amos gave a cold chuckle.“He got lucky?“Do you think someone who got lucky would just show up to the funeral parlor to cause trouble?“Do you think someone who got lucky could send Henrik flying with a single slap?“Do you really think someone like that could just walk all over Samira?“Looks like I’ve been pampering you a little too much!“Yo
“And if the investigation continues, Harvey would still be declared innocent.“That said, the Border Force would be dragged down because of this!“Do you think someone like Neil would waste his efforts like that? “He’s a just man, but he’s not an idiot!”Amos Augustus could not help but heave a sigh.Even though he had been carefully laying out his plans…Harvey York simply had him beat.After repeatedly exchanging blows, Amos could not help but feel impressed.If Harvey were his assistant in Smalt Sect…He would have taken over all of the outskirts. He would not need to be this passive.The Smalt Sect had been looking down on the people below the mountains.But Harvey taught them a good lesson to wake up from their delusion.“What should we do at this point, Young Master?Stinger briefly hesitated before speaking.“Henrik and the others are completely wiped. I’m afraid no one from America is making a comeback for the time being.“As for Evermore, we’ve completely lost
While Amos Augustus was thinking of a way to apologize to prevent himself from being too embarrassed…Harvey York visited the Longmen Budokan.When he just made himself a cup of tea, the sounds of engines were heard from outside.A row of ambulances were parked outside when a dozen men in white coats rushed forward.A tall, beautiful woman walked in front. She coldly glanced around her before coming toward Harvey.Harvey was sipping his tea when he recognized the woman.She was the director of the outskirts’ top people’s hospital and the woman in charge of saving Quincy, Courtney Lloyd.A Longmen disciple stepped up to greet the woman.“We’re not enrolling students, Ma’am.”“I’m not here to train.”Courtney frowned.Dorian Howell had been feeding the idea that he was on the verge of death for the past twenty years.This caused Longmen’s image to weaken.This was also why Courtney disdained the organization.Neil Osborne’s sister, Yasmin Osborne, was currently in charge of
“Do you even realize what you’re missing out on?“To many people, they’d only encountered such a prominent figure once!“If you miss out on a chance like that…“Then you’d remain a lowly peasant for the rest of your life!“Do you want to be an upperclassman without Mrs. Andie’s help?“Keep on dreaming!”Courtney Lloyd looked bitter as if she was giving Harvey York a lecture.That said, the disdain and coercion were blatantly apparent in her words.After all, serving Neil Osborne and his family was no less than a blessing to her.‘How dare a loser like Harvey not cherish an opportunity like this?‘He thinks he’s impressive just because he’s trained for a couple of years?‘Doesn’t he know that masters of their own craft would always sell themselves to the people with authority?‘The age of heroes is over!‘No matter how strong he is, without the support of the government and powerful figures, what else can he do other than to sell his performance on the streets?’Harvey cas
“What? Do you think you can just ask Sir York to go wherever because you’re a director?”“Who do you think you are? The director of the police station?”“Oh, you people don’t know! She’s the director of the top people’s hospital! She’s excellent at surgery! She’s earned a lot of favors since many policemen have had stitches from her.”“What? Are you asking for a reward now?”“Are you trying to take advantage of us or something?”“Is this what an angel in white is supposed to do?”The Longmen disciples spoke gloomily after hearing Courtney Lloyd’s words.The disciples did not know who Harvey York was, but they knew he helped the outskirts’ branch quite a bit.They were naturally upset about a mere doctor threatening Harvey.They were already nice enough not to slap Courtney in the face.Harvey waved his hand before finally speaking.“Are you acting on your own? Or did Andie put you up to this?”Naturally, Harvey did not believe Neil Osborne would do something like this alone
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
Daichi smiled faintly and said, "I know very well that in the eyes of people like you, Islanders like us are detestable. Speaking with us, working with us, and even eating a meal with us is quite disgusting, right?"However, we must all learn to be patient. It has already happened for quite some time. Is there a point in rushing through these few minutes? It's better for us to share a good meal and have a chat afterward."Daichi slowly partook in the meal, putting a piece of fish into his mouth and chewing slowly. At the same time, he narrowed his eyes as he looked at Harvey, his eyes filled with subtle amusement.Daichi found the meal before him quite enjoyable. He also found himself quite satisfied looking at Harvey showing a hint of irritation."Looks like you really think that you have me under control," Harvey said coldly. "But I can tell you that by just sitting here, my patience is already at its limit. I have a habit, too. Rather than being threatened by someone, I prefer t
