“Now, you’re different than before. There are many things I’m not afraid of telling you,” said Harvey York while caressing his woman.“Evermore should be the most troublesome of all the forces interested in the Nine-Eyed Beads.“Other forces would at least show up publicly to get what they want.“But Evermore’s an ancient organization. You wouldn’t even know when they arrive.”Harvey sent some information over his phone to Mandy Zimmer.“At his point, Rhodes is done for. He’d only be cooped up in Kronen Temple for the rest of his life.“Are you in charge of the financial group now? Or is Colby the one calling the shots?”Mandy frowned.“Colby’s a direct descendant of the Wright family after all…”“Got it.Harvey gave a slight nod.“Since that’s the case, just let him enjoy the limelight.“If he needs to show up in person, let him do it instead.“Be as discreet as you can for now. It’d be better if everyone completely ignores you.“Judging from everything that’s been happe
The name of the villa district was called Violet District.It was the gathering place for the outskirts’ wealthy people, but they were only considered to be in the middle class.Compared to Eden Mountain’s villa area, this place was completely inferior.The people living here were all from the outskirts’ upper social circle, but they were only barely considered that way.Harvey York arrived at the district before finding the villa through his GPS application on the phone.Judith Pedler had been standing at the front door for the longest time. She quickly came forward with her face completely flushed after seeing Harvey’s arrival.“I thought you wouldn’t come.”Harvey let out a chuckle.“You invited me. Of course, I came.“Happy birthday.”Harvey casually pulled out a box.He naturally would not come empty-handed since it was Judith’s birthday.After what happened in Aenar Temple, Lennon Surrey gave him a small present.Harvey decided to give it away. He had not opened it u
“Hmph! Ms. Kali’s the lady of the Howell family! Why does she look like she’s talking to her Prince Charming?! How shameless!”Aliza Howell held a bottle of soda on the side, showing disdain toward Harvey York.She knew Harvey was boasting using Aria Surrey’s name, disrespecting Alvaro Osborne and Asher Klein back at the auction.But then, she decided to investigate the situation further.Aria was distant and never liked talking to outsiders. She had always been engrossed with martial arts.Harvey must have been lucky enough to be able to cling to her.If that were not the case, the Surrey family would not have been defending someone like him.Even if Aria looked up to Harvey, a kept man like him would have nothing going on for him other than being handsome anyway.She believed Aria would cast him away as soon as she was bored.In her mind, Kali did not need to look up to Harvey like that.Kali was a direct descendant of the Howell family, while Aliza was just a relative.Bu
The place was dead silent when a blonde man in a suit walked inside with his arms crossed. He was about five-foot-nine with golden-rimmed glasses sitting on his tall nose.Four men in white suits were also following behind him. All of them were Westerners with towering builds exuding an unspeakable murderous intent.The students around were so scared that they could not utter a single word while looking at each other.Nobody knew why these people would barge in at such a crucial moment.“It’s you?!“Who let you in?!“Get out of here!”Mrs. Pedler paused before screaming at him.Judith Pedler was showing a confused gaze as well.“Why are you back, Dad?”“Heh! I promised to see you every birthday, my dear!“I would never miss your eighteenth birthday!“After all, now you could inherit the family’s title!The man smiled gently at Judith before glancing at Mrs. Pedler.“You should remember what I told you, Indy.“I promised my daughter would live a normal life before she was
‘The Silver Knight?!’Everyone shuddered after hearing those words.The people in other places around Country H did not know what that name meant…But it was very well-known in the outskirts.After all, the Border Force had been in conflict with the forces led by the Silver Knight. They had been toe-to-toe with every battle they had so far.Both sides had reasons to suppress each other.But after the Head Coach defeated the five strongest countries, it was enough to show the Silver Knight’s charisma and leadership to remain on par with Country H’s forces.“Legends say the Silver Knight, Kyren Pedler, had ancestors from Country H who moved to the Warrior Tribe about a hundred years ago.“The tribe had a horrible life in the beginning, but after countless wars and marriages, they stood their ground in the west of Country H!“The Emperor of the Warrior Tribe is also quite fond of the Silver Knight. Safe to say that of the entire Warrior Tribe, he’s a prominent figure of the upper
Harvey York ignored everyone’s gaze while setting down his cup.“Something wrong?”Judith Pedler quickly approached her father when she saw him going for the person she was eyeing.“What are you doing, Dad? Harvey’s been very good to me! You can’t cause him trouble!”“I’m just keeping an eye on the man who’s treating you well! I should also thank him for handling some of your previous problems!“Why would I cause him trouble in that case?”Kyren Pedler smiled gently at Judith before patting her head.He showed a profound gaze when he glanced at Harvey again.“Right. There is no need to hold back. Let’s all take a seat.”Kyren casually sat in the main seat while ushering Judith there.Judith sat right beside Alvaro Osborne while Harvey sat in the back.Anyone could tell that Kyren was not fond of Harvey at all.Billie Higgs, Aliza Howell, and the others who knew Harvey’s skill were quietly waiting for Harvey to make a fool out of himself.Harvey did not mind the situation.
Everyone trembled after hearing Kyren Pedler’s words.Alvaro Osborne was incredibly exhilarated since he had previously trained in the Border Force.“I heard that the Head Coach himself is a living legend!“You’re a prominent figure who participated in that fight! Have you ever seen the Head Coach fight?”Kyren grinned.“It’s only about five years ago.“I naturally joined the fight since I hadn’t been a marquis long.“Then again, I didn’t see the Head Coach since I wasn’t in the front lines.“But to my knowledge, three out of five dukes of the Warrior Tribe lost against the Head Coach.“One of them even secluded himself after being defeated, claiming that he’d never come back out unless his combat strength progressed.“Judging from this, it should be clear how powerful the Head Coach was.“That’s why Master York can never be as good as a legendary figure like that.“That said, he’s still an extremely prominent figure in the outskirts’ younger generation.“I figured that if
A few Westerners walked out when the car doors opened.The person leading the group sized up Harvey York momentarily.“Mr. Kyren’s asking you to join him.”“Mr. Kyren? The Silver Knight?”Harvey seemed calm. He entered the car without hesitation.Half an hour later, the cars came to the edge of a desert.Hundreds of people stood with their arms folded. Judith Pedler’s father, Kyren Pedler, was in the middle of the crowd.He crossed his arms while looking at the sight before him. His white shirt fluttered in the sandy wind.Behind him, the elderly God of War looked at the sky while pondering something.“Please, Sir York.”A Westerner gestured without any intention of getting closer to Harvey.Hundreds of people around instantly looked at Harvey.Their eyes were radiating with power. Clearly, they were battle-hardened veterans.Ordinary people would be scared witless by the sight.Harvey, on the other hand, was unfazed. He calmly stepped forward until he was only a few step
