Hidden Monarch: The Silent Resurgence Chapter 1397
Michael had initially thought about downplaying the value of the wine, but when he realized that Henry knew its worth. So, he reluctantly said, "Indeed, at an auction in Aurelia years ago, this wine fetched over 300,000 dollars per bottle!""No way!" Deric exclaimed. He could not accept the idea that someone as unremarkable as Henry could possess such valuable wine.Amy and Cecilia were also curious about the authenticity of the wine.Henry shook his head and said calmly, "Mr. Leon can tell.""Alright, I'll give it a try!" Michael was eager.As a lover of fine liquor, he could not resist tasting such a rare find. He poured himself a small glass and savored it, feeling a sense of bliss that resonated deeply in his soul.Such fine wine!Even though he had never tasted that particular one, his experience told him it was genuine. The satisfaction on his face left no doubt for the others.Knowing her husband's deep knowledge and passion for liquor, Amy was taken aback.'Is the wine

Just then, Michael returned to the room.He had not gone to the restroom. Instead, he had rushed out to find the waitress. However, he must have been a step too late, as he could not locate her anywhere. He was regretful—if only he had not claimed the wine was fake.When he saw another bottle of wine on the table, he paused and asked, "What's that?""Henry brought that out. Unfortunately, it's just an ordinary bottle of Maotai. It's not even the Flying Fairy Maotai," Deric said.Henry glanced at Deric with disdain as if he were staring at an idiot. He remarked casually, "Is that so?""Of course!" Deric replied confidently."Have you never heard of Flying Fairy Maotai's predecessor?" Henry asked.Deric was momentarily taken aback—he genuinely did not know. He preferred red wine and was not well-versed in the intricacies of hard liquor."Five-Star Maotai!" Michael interjected, showing that he had a deep knowledge of alcohol.His eyes lit up as he asked eagerly, "Is that a bottle

As soon as Noel entered, he asked, "Is this your wine?"He was puzzled as to why someone would discard such a fine bottle of wine, mistaking it for a fake.Everyone was momentarily stunned by his question.Michael, however, felt a surge of excitement. He was regretful, but since the bottle of wine had been returned, he quickly answered, "Yes, yes, it's ours!"Noel frowned in disbelief. "Why would you think it's fake and want to throw it away? You're wasting a treasure!"Michael was at a loss for words. He was unsure if the wine was real, but it seemed legit based on Noel's reaction.Deric, however, could not stand it any longer. He sneered, "Old man, you're quite an actor. How much did this man pay you?"Noel's face darkened as he felt humiliated."Keep going, you're doing a great job," Deric mocked."Henry, why bother with the act? You're trying to fool everyone with a cheap bottle of fake wine?""I'm speaking the truth," Noel retorted angrily."Feel free to check the White

Noel's expression remained cold as he responded, "No need. I'm not worthy to hear such an apology."Deric was dumbfounded. He had not anticipated Noel to be someone so influential that even his uncle was terrified of him.Deric did not realize that Harvey's presence at that dinner was because he was from Redhoc. After all, the dinner was organized by Aden Whalen, the mayor, to welcome Aaron Clements, the wealthiest man from Redhoc, who was planning to invest there."Why are you standing there? Get over here and kneel!" Harvey barked, his face dark with anger.Deric was shocked. He knew he was in big trouble. He had always been in awe of his uncle, but kneeling in front of Cecilia and apologizing to someone else was something he could not stomach.Harvey, however, was beside himself with rage, ready to step in and force the issue. Realizing that kneeling was his only way out, Deric quickly knelt and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ray. I didn't recognize you and spoke out of turn. Please for

After all that back and forth, the wine ended in Noel's possession, but it was not Deric's to give away. It also meant Deric had not paid any price for his actions.Harvey's expression darkened; Henry's action had harmed Deric. Harvey knew it was not the time to act, not before Deric got through that mess.Noel paused for a moment. He chuckled. "You're quite interesting. What's your name?""Henry. Henry Truman," Henry replied."Good, I'll remember that. I owe you one," Noel said.He could afford the wine, but he could not get one due to its rarity."Don't mention it, Mr. Ray," Henry replied nonchalantly.Noel said nothing more and was about to turn when he noticed the Maotai on the table."A 1958 Five-Star Moutai—impressive, young man.""It was a gift from a friend," Henry replied."That shows your connections. I'm getting more interested in you," Noel remarked.He then took out a business card and handed it to Henry, saying, "Here's my card. Let's have a drink together some

"And you, Cecilia!"Do you really think you're a goddess? I gave you a chance, but you refused it. Well, don't blame me for what comes next," Deric sneered coldly."Austin, blame your sister for this. Prepare 3 million dollars or get ready to go to jail."In his anger, he failed to think through what was really happening.Everyone's faces turned grim.Michael quickly pleaded, "Young Master Pierson, let's talk this through. That has nothing to do with us. We've always supported you.""Prove it then. Tell this guy to get lost right now," Deric said, pointing coldly at Henry.Michael looked at Henry, but before he could say anything, Cecilia exclaimed anxiously, "Dad, what's going on?"Michael did not answer but said, "Henry, you should leave. There's no way I'm letting you marry Cecilia. Young Master Pierson is the best match for her."Deric's face filled with smug satisfaction as he taunted, "See that? Did you really think bringing a couple of fake bottles of wine would make yo

Everyone was stunned by Henry's words. They thought he must be insane.The Piersons were rich and powerful, making them invincible in Michael's eyes.Deric was momentarily taken aback before bursting into laughter."You're utterly ignorant and brainless!"Do you really think you're in Mr. Ray's good graces just because he gave you a business card? He was just being polite because you gave him the bottle of wine."Do you know why, even though I insulted Mr. Ray, he couldn't do anything to me? It's because of my uncle—he's a high-ranking official in Eastonia!"And you think you're somebody just because of a business card? That's so funny; you're killing me here!"Get out of here right now, or you better prepare to die."Do it, or no one can save you!"He felt triumphant as if he had reclaimed all the dignity he had lost earlier.Michael and the others shook their heads in resignation, convinced that Henry was a dead man.However, Cecilia's expression softened slightly, though

Deric was smug as he watched everyone crumble under his control, especially Cecilia."Why did the amount go up again? I only borrowed 1.8 million dollars!" Austin could not help but fume.Austin realized he had been trapped, but he could do nothing about it.Deric sneered, "Don't you know that borrowing money comes with interest? I covered 3 million dollars for you for days—and 750,000 dollars in interest isn't that much. If it were someone else, I might've doubled it."Henry said, "Indeed. Doubling your money wouldn't be out of the question if you ran a casino like that. In fact, your family owns that casino, don't they?"Deric's face twitched, but he smiled coldly. "So what if we do? My family has the power to make money in no time.""Is it legal?" Henry asked.Deric's expression darkened momentarily, but he quickly regained his composure and retorted, "What can you do about it? Let me tell you, the Piersons make the law over here."Enough with the nonsense. Didn't you say yo

At that point, everything there was over.After everyone dispersed, Shane laughed as he stepped forward. "Henry, you gave me a big surprise this time."I thought you'd need at least five years to catch up to them. I didn't expect you to have achieved such strength. This is entirely beyond my imagination."May I ask what level of strength you are at now?"Shane was curious.Henry shrugged helplessly and said, "I don't know it. There's no one to compare with."I only know that if I use my full strength, I can destroy a city with one single wave of my sword."Everyone was utterly stunned, and they murmured helplessly, "Pervert!"Shane was speechless. He shook his head. "Young man, you really amazed me. By the way, when are you getting engaged? Don't delay for too long; I don't have much time left."He was delighted with Henry and was hoping to be able to attend their wedding.Henry smiled and said, "Elder Master Drayson, have you forgotten what I said yesterday? I'll help you re

Henry's domineering words made the people of Aurelia excited.They were so enthusiastic that they had to express their excitement.However, they were confused when Henry ordered them to launch the missiles.What did Henry mean? Why did Henry order the launching of the missiles? Everyone was curious.Everyone else was dumbfounded, too. What order was that?Everyone had doubts in their mind.At the same time, the person at the missile base was sweating profusely. He had to execute the order under any circumstances, and he was so nervous that he could not help but reconfirm the order again.Frederick nodded. He had looked into the matter personally to ensure everything was in place without error.If he had not seen Henry's extraordinary strength with his own eyes, he would not have believed that Henry had planned everything. He had even met with Frederick earlier in the morning and made the request.Henry wanted to show how powerful he was in deterring anyone from creating unnece

There were words of praise, excitement, and admiration in Aurelia.In their opinion, Henry was Aurelia's protector.In other places, people were amazed and fearful of Henry's strength.Henry did not care about that. He remembered that there were many troublemakers earlier.In a deep voice, he said, "I heard that over these past few days, many looked down on Aurelia's battling skills because no one was here to deal with them."In that case, I'll let them see how powerful Aurelia's battling skills are. There's no need to trouble those masters who are in seclusion. Those present today can do the same job."Step forward, Jensen."Jensen was stunned. When he heard Henry's order, he quickly gathered his thoughts. He stepped forward and said respectfully, "Yes, Mr. Truman."Jensen was a powerful master trained by Henry. His terrifying aura was clearly displayed at that moment.In an instant, the whole world could feel his strong force. The powerful force gathered in the air made ever

Henry waved his right hand. Jorge flew out of the platform and landed near the few Islehaveners beside their ambassador.Henry had sent Jorge back to them.Next, it would be Lucifer's turn.The audience looked at Henry with admiration and were shocked.Shane and the others who supported Henry were really excited. Earlier, they had thought Aurelia would face a big crisis. They did not expect Henry to solve the matter so easily.Although Lucifer had yet to make a move, it was impossible for Lucifer to defeat Henry so easily."Lucifer, you're up," Henry said.Everyone's heart trembled.The crowd was familiar with Lucifer. He became famous after the battle the day before.It was obvious that Lucifer was much stronger than Jorge. Most importantly, he represented the powerful Westin.Lucifer snorted coldly. He stepped forward and spread his fourteen wings. He looked overpowering and extremely terrifying.The huge pressure created by the wings made everyone feel breathless.Howeve

Jorge's expression looked horrible. He had already taken the first step. Everything would go in vain if he were to give up.So, he got up, knelt in front of Henry again, and shouted, "I'm sorry, I was wrong!"Slap, slap!Another few heavy slaps on him.Jorge was utterly stunned; he was also shocked and angry."Your voice is too loud. It's disturbing," Henry said.At that moment, any fool would know Henry did it intentionally. He deliberately played tricks on Jorge.That made the Islehaveners feel even more ashamed.An ambassador of Islehaven who was watching the battle stepped forward and said, "Stop! Stop! You're destroying—""Get lost," Henry snorted coldly and waved his right hand.Even though the ambassador was a few hundred meters away, he immediately felt a massive pain in his chest. He flew backward about ten meters away and fainted as he landed on the ground.He was then dragged away.Everyone was shocked.Jorge's expression looked extremely ugly. The pain on his c

Henry's voice contained powerful mental pressure. He controlled it so well that it only targeted Jorge."No!" Jorge gritted his teeth and roared. The power around him gathered crazily, forming a huge and terrifying force he was trying to resist.Everyone was shocked when they saw that.A huge tornado formed above Jorge's head, and a powerful force burst out crazily. Once again, he displayed his amazing and terrifying strength.The overwhelming pressure shocked everyone.Everyone in the country saw that. They were extremely excited. "I knew it. Jorge was only fooling with him. He's showing his real strength now.""That's right. He's finally fighting back. He must teach that guy a cruel lesson."They were all excited. However, their excitement disappeared the next moment, and their expression looked horrible.At that moment, Henry, with a disdainful look, raised his right hand and pressed on the tornado lightly.The terrifying force on Jorge dissipated completely in an instant.

"He's my idol, too!""Mine, too.""Stop pretending. Weren't you arrogant and proud earlier? Keep it going."At that moment, the people of Aurelia cheered, both online and those who were there. Everyone who knew Henry and was close to him was also extremely excited.In contrast, the faces of the people of Islehaven looked ugly; they could not believe what they had seen.They saw Jorge as powerful as God. How could he be crushed? He was even slapped in public, equivalent to a slap on everyone's face. They were furious."Cheater! He must be cheating!""That is a conspiracy. It must be a conspiracy!""Jorge, did you hold back? You wanted them to be happy first and then would beat them out of their asses later?""Get up! Show them how powerful the people of Islehaven are."Similarly, the reaction of the people from the Westin countries was not good either. Everyone was shocked.Some were amazed at Henry's power.Of course, many other countries expressed their support for Aurelia

Jorge frowned when Henry walked up to the platform. He realized he did not manage to sense Henry's strength and power at all.There were only two possibilities. The first was that Henry was so much stronger than himself that Jorge could not sense his strength. Jorge had already managed to sense Shane and Lucifer's strength.Henry could not be much stronger than the two of them.The other possibility was that Henry had learned a secret technique to conceal his strength.If Jorge did not guess wrongly, it should be the latter.'Trying to scare me with that hideous trick?'Jorge sneered and said disdainfully, "Henry, you coward. Are you finally willing to come forward now? I thought you were going to stay hidden forever."Henry smiled, but his smile was a little cold. He said, "Hide? Since when do I need to hide? About half a month ago, you and your master, Lucifer, had to flee from Aurelia. Have you forgotten about that?""Nonsense!"Jorge was furious when he heard that. First,

"I do hope there are stronger masters today; at least let me warm up a little. Otherwise, it'll be really boring for me."Also, I won't be holding back today. Life and death are not considerations once we're on the platform. I'd like to see if anyone in Aurelia isn't afraid of death."As soon as he said that, many people commented again. Many people were thinking about Henry, whom Jorge had mentioned, but Henry had yet to appear.Many Aurelian masters were furious when they heard Jorge's words and were about to rush to the platform.Flynn stepped forward and was about to go up onto the platform.However, Henry took the lead and went to the platform.Manish, standing next to him, was stunned for a moment. He was the strongest master among the several Worship Masters. Manish was stronger than Albus, but he did not stop Henry.Albus specifically instructed him to arrange for Flynn to join the fight first. Even though he would not be able to defeat Jorge, at least he could exhaust t
