When Neil Osborne was just about to lash out, he suddenly felt a hand placed on his shoulder.“Go have your meal, Mr. Neil.“This was my problem to begin with.“I can deal with this. You don’t need to worry.”Harvey York stepped forward before smiling faintly at Neil.“Evil people will always be done by the same people.“You’re a good man. You’re not experienced enough to deal with shameless people like him.“But I’m different!“I know exactly what to do!”Harvey pushed Neil into the Budokan while showing a weird expression.Justin Walker stood up before dragging Neil by the hand.“There’s no need to stand up for Sir York, Neil.“He deals with people like this all the time.“He’d crush every single one of them the same way.“You should just sit back and watch the show.”Prince Gibson smiled.“You may not know about Sir York’s abilities, but we know him all too well!“Just relax.”Layne Naiswell lightly nodded without saying a word, quietly acknowledging Justin and Pri
Harvey York calmly glanced at Cullen Hunt standing before him.“I did arrive here.“That said, I met someone named Cullen.“He said he came from the Hunt family.“He boasted about his family being impressive because of its two Gods of War.“Let me ask you something, Ethan Hunt.“Is your family really that impressive?“Even if that were the case…“Are you people planning to stand for the Islanders as well?“Should I be disappointed in you or what?”Harvey spoke sternly.He would not be as upset if Cullen flaunted his strength through different means…But Ethan and Travis Hunt were the ones who gave him courage.Even he was siding with the Islanders, no less.Harvey’s words were as cold as night at this moment.“I remember someone named that in the outskirts.“He’s a relative of the family.“He’s in charge of the Hunt family’s business in the Desert Province, and he’s considered the spokesperson of the family’s interests.“Then again, we never permitted him to take adva
“Don’t you dare spout more nonsense, you bastard!”An internet-famous woman could not hold her feelings back.“Mr. Cullen belongs to the Hunt family!“Everyone in the Desert Province has no choice but to pay him respect, no matter their side!“Even us Islanders would have to do the same!“And yet, you’re here demanding him to kneel?!“Are you insane?!”The woman was well-known for her adult films.After going viral, she was chosen by the Shinto Way to become one of the members of the visiting group.She had been serving Cullen Hunt willingly despite having to wait an hour for his drugs to kick in every time.But in just an hour, Cullen demonstrated not only his vast knowledge but also his domineering attitude.A prominent figure like him surely would not be taken advantage of by some random nobody.“Is that so? You’re that impressive?”Harvey ignored the woman when he smiled faintly at Cullen.“Why don’t you tell the lady how long you can stay this way, Mr. Cullen?”“Shu
Caspian Lee instinctively shivered after sensing Cullen Hunt’s vengeful gaze.Sensing other people’s gazes was his forte for a traitorous man like him.Naturally, he knew he would be dragged into the grave if Cullen kneeled.He had no choice but to take a step forward for his own life.“About what happened today, no, everything yesterday was also our fault!“We were ignorant! We went up against you by accident!“We know our mistakes now!“Not only will we not ask for any compensation, but we’ll also grovel in front of you as an apology! I’m willing to pay a huge sum of a hundred and fifty thousand dollars, too!“Please! Let us go! Pretend all this never happened!“Even this is for Mr. Naruse’s sake!”“A hundred and fifty thousand?Harvey curiously looked at Caspian.“What? Are you trying to chase me away with that amount?“Or are you saying I wouldn’t dare kill you right now because of your benefactor?“Let me tell you something. Your yapping will only get you one thing.
On the next day, after the subjugation of Cullen Hunt and the others.Naruse Toyotomi came to the courtyard as usual.He sat on a dry stone with his sword lying on his lap.After a while, he lightly waved his hand on the sword when a fierce aura dissipated from his body.The temperature of the place slowly rose after that.Naruse’s strength was perfectly demonstrated through his simple training.When he went to the porch for breakfast, a beautiful suited secretary quickly approached him.The secretary held a laptop when she respectfully bowed before him.“This is bad, Mr. Naruse,” she whispered in Naruse’s ear.Naruse had a taste of his meal before he spoke.“Talk.”“Something happened last night.“Caspian brought a group of people to pay Harvey a visit, but they all came back defeated.“I don’t know what had happened…“But Cullen switched sides.“He used his power to force Tojo into apologizing in the Island Nations’ newspaper headlines. He also announced that he was in
“So, Cullen’s…”The secretary moved her thumb across her neck.Naruse Toyotomi was not as narrow-minded as the others. He pondered the situation for a long while before calmly speaking.“A loss is still a loss.“We need to acknowledge that.“No need to bury our heads in the sand.“There’s no need to do anything to Cullen either. People might think we’re sore losers if we do!“Harvey isn’t someone he can handle anyway…“I wanted to deal with him for Mr. Amos’s stead initially.“But it doesn’t seem like it’s possible after all.”Naruse put on a stern expression.He knew of everything Harvey York had done in the outskirts.Based on Naruse’s behavior, he would not underestimate such a strong figure.Even so, he felt dejected since Harvey was still unscathed.“Tell them to act as soon as possible.Naruse quickly decided on another thing.“If I slow down now…“I’ll also suffer losses there!“After all, there isn’t much time left.”The secretary quickly nodded before pullin
Cullen Hunt let out a bitter chuckle.“This is the extent of the Hunt family’s authority, Sir York.“After all, the publisher’s headquarters is in Kyoto. We’ve already invested a lot in this.“We even sacrificed a few of our spies there…”“No need to tell me about that.Harvey instantly cut off Cullen.“The moment you stand with the Islanders—the moment you work for Evermore, you should realize it’s all bound to happen.“You’re a dead man at this point, yet you’re still speaking up for your family…“Looks like you’re not much of a traitor as I initially thought, huh?Cullen just chuckled without saying another word.He knew he was a dead man. Even if Naruse did not take any action, the Hunt family would not hesitate to make him disappear from this world.His best choice was to make an excuse to hide himself for the rest of his life. That way, his wife and children could live on without worry.Speaking up for the family in front of Harvey would mean preserving a bright futur
When Harvey York received the call, the Mandrake Residence was in utter chaos.A scarlet fire was clearly seen in the sky.Even Stefan Augustus, who believed himself to be a scheming man, never expected his enemy to be this insane.The Mandrake Residence was set on fire since the enemy could not force the people to come outside.Half of the guards were already taken out in just half an hour.That said, they did not fall in battle either. Many of them fell unconscious after breathing in the thick smoke.Evermore planned to deal with Stefan swiftly, forcing Amos Augustus to side with them.Other than setting the place on fire, they prepared other methods of assassination as well.Many of the experienced fighters were taken out all of a sudden.The assassins looked like ghosts creeping in the dark, easily hiding in the shadows.Islanders who were well-versed in their martial arts would figure out that those people were using none other than the Koga Ninjutsu.The technique did
