"Or you know, you can forget about killing my men. Why don't you just kill me using the Royal Flush? I'm a coward if I so much as frown!" It was obvious that Hector felt that he had already seen through Harvey's bottom line.Since Harvey did not dare to kill anyone, how could he show weakness at a time like this?When that thought crossed his mind, Hector even grabbed and sipped from a glass of soda water from the podium and coldly said, "Not to mention… You have understood something. You're safe after you humiliated Mabon because of Sienna's support."But if you're crossing me, you're going against the entire Thompson of Wolsing. No matter how powerful you are, can you be more powerful than the entire Thompson family? Time has changed. We're no longer living in the ages of heroes. If you can't even understand that, then you'll die soon."When those afraid of Harvey's action heard what Hector had said, they all had a moment of realization.He was right!Hector and Mabon were two
"If you really want to die, I'll fulfill your wish."Harvey did not want to waste his breath with Hector anymore and stepped forward onto the stage. Then, he started to twist the Royal Flush in his hand…Suddenly, the door into the hall was once again kicked open.George Zabel appeared at the door, and two of his subordinates dragged a middle-aged woman inside. Then, they dumped her right before the stage.When Hector saw it, the expression on his face was full of shock.Then, George bowed at Harvey, saying, "Mr. Harvey, this woman called Number Seven is now willing to confess everything. Not only did she confess where she came from, but she also confessed who the one behind the Royal Flush was and what happened afterward."According to what she said, all the people who started a riot at the Ninth-Branch Company were arranged by Hector. After that had failed, it was also he who ordered her to kill everyone who attended the riot. What happened at Sky Corporation and the Royal Flus
"I did tell you to kill Harvey, but do you think I'm stupid enough to order it in front of you?" Hector subconsciously said, feeling his blood pumping. "Not to mention, I was wearing a mask every time we met. How do you know it's me? I'm telling you, don't you dare—"Hector suddenly stopped talking, silent. He realized he had accidentally exposed the truth.The entire crowd at the expo was silent. What happened at this moment revealed to everyone there that Hector hired an assassin to assassinate Harvey, and Harvey had every right to come after him.Harvey slowly walked up the stage and said, "Since you have already admitted to your crimes, are you going to kill yourself, or should I give you a hand and send you to hell?""Send me to hell?" Hector laughed angrily, then pointed at Harvey. "So what if I hired an assassin? So what if you have the evidence? I'm telling you, the most you'll get is throwing me in jail for maybe a couple of years. Even in prison, I have plenty of ways to
Tyson and the others quickly fell under the watchful eyes of those from Dragon Cell. They couldn't do a lot in a short time.There was a brief moment of chaos, but things calmed down very quickly.Jesse said slowly, "Mr. Harvey, Mr. Hector. All of us are acquaintances, so there's no need to push things this far. I don't care which of you are in the right, but there are laws in this land. Since you're still in Wolsing, then please follow the rules in Wolsing."You should always obey the law. Whoever breaks the law in front of me is forcing my hand."Jesse appeared very dominant and oppressive. His presence immediately kept the entire hall under his control, as if he were the ruler of this place."Looks like you can't touch me after all, Harvey," Hector said with a victorious smile when he saw Jesse making his appearance."It's true paying for an assassination is a severe crime, but someone like me can easily be released after a short while. I don't care how powerful you are, I'll
Hector slowly raised his chin and looked at the ceiling on top of him with his increasingly empty eyes. There was disbelief in his gaze.Someone like him was destined to be able to enjoy all the finest things in life. He was destined to be on high, controlling the destiny of others.Death was something so far away from him. For him, no matter what he did, it wouldn't be enough to kill him.Even if the punishment for his crime was death, there would be plenty who would be willing to die in his place.However, Hector never expected the Grime Reaper to catch up with him either way.He didn't expect Harvey would kill him without a care for this world.Hector could feel regret, resentment, and anger.All those different emotions were amassing within him. However, it wasn't enough to change the fact that he was dying.His head fell lifelessly. In the final moment, all his eyes carried within them were endless resentment.Unfortunately for Hector, Harvey was simply dusting his hand w
No matter how unbelievable things seemed, it was beyond a shadow of a doubt that Hector had already died.Mabon had to accept it. While he didn't have any evidence, he was certain Harvey had a direct link to Hector's death. Harvey wouldn't hesitate to do the deed.When the thought crossed his mind, Mabon began sweating profusely. Luckily, he acknowledged his defeat immediately. Otherwise, he would be the one who died.Should he still pick on Harvey in the future?Mabon closed his eyes. He knew that after today, Harvey would become the biggest psychological obstacle in his mind, haunting him forever.Even Mandy was very confused. She wasn't sure what kind of expressions she should make. In fact, she wasn't sure what she should do.Hector suddenly died.What happened in the dark for that one minute?Jesse took a deep breath, and forced herself to calm down while the others were still too surprised to act.Then, he scanned the entire crowd and waved his hand, saying, "Call rein
Jesse and Mabon sat face to face in Geraldton Hotel's presidential suite."You're the organizer and person in charge of the Wolsing Property Expo, Mr. Mabon," Jesse said as he took a sip of coffee. "From our investigation report, you're the one who informed the Thompsons about your event. I believe you can convince the Thompsons to let it go."I believe Mr. Harvey will prepare some form of compensation for the Thompsons. I hope no one will use this chance to kick up a storm when Wolsing is in a very sensitive period," Jesse said calmly, as if he was simply stating a fact.No one can change his attitude, even if the person sitting opposite of him was Mabon of the Wright family."I know you're the next in line to lead the Dragon Cell, Mr. Jesse. You're also the scion of the Xaviers of Wolsing. You're not someone I can offend when you have both identities. Ah, I forgot. You're also the student of the previous leader of the Dragon Guards, and you only went to Dragon Cell because of a
After a long moment of silence, Mabon finally sighed and said, "You're not planning to give me a way out of this, Mr. Jesse. I've already provided a statement according to what I've seen. I believe you'll all be very happy with this statement. "I've done everything I can, but now you're asking me to go to persuade the Thompsons? I don't think I can do that," Mabon said in a way that made him look powerless. "You can't force me to do the impossible."Jesse said, "I know what you're thinking. You think I'm ignoring the law just so I can help my sister. The truth is, you should have a basic understanding of who's right and who's wrong. Using that as a guide, I don't think there's anything wrong with my judgment today."Don't tell me you don't know what the situation is like right now. Wolsing can't fall into further chaos because of what happened recently. Not to mention, if the Thompsons go all out and fight Harvey until the end… I can tell you the ones who will lose won't be Harvey.
Half an hour later, in a lounge in the Foster estate.Harvey held Vaida's wrist with his right hand. After some time, he said, "Geoffrey, what's wrong with her? When I met her on the plane, while she was on the brink of going berserk, she could still control it. But now, the energy cycle within her was chaotic, and an outsider's energy couldn't easily enter."It's as if she's been losing control for many years. What's going on here? And how can you lie to her saying that I'm the man of her destiny? If I became her obsession or even her inner demon, it wouldn't do her any good to her martial arts training," Harvey said as he could not help but let out a sigh.Regardless of what happened, Vaida still fought with him on the plane. Harvey could not ignore what happened to her because of that.Geoffrey sighed. "There's something you don't know. Not only is Vaida the daughter of the previous mayor of Grand City, but the Hierophant also prophesied her to be the reincarnation of Grand City
"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
