As Haru made his final plea, he immediately stood up and kicked Haruka to the ground. Then, he gave her a few slaps."You witch! Mr. Harvey has already shown you mercy by just breaking your hand! How dare you stir up trouble targeting him! I'm telling you, no matter how he wants to punish you today, let him punish you! Accept it without resistance! I'll kill you myself if you resist!"Haru kept glancing at Haruka when he had his back against Harvey. This fool… Why did she offend such a person? Other than Shinto Way, all the younger generations of the other five schools had already been obliterated by him. Even a few sword saints from the older generation lost to him!The only reason Shingen believed he had the power to go against Harvey this time was because he had made a lot of preparations. He had gambled 30 years of the Island Nation's fate on this. But he really could not. Not to mention, Haru also believed if he dared to speak on Haruka's behalf, Harvey would immediately kill h
"Alright, Haru…" Harvey said calmly. "Enough with the courtesy. Out of all the Islanders I know, you're one of the few who knows what's good for them."Haru was briefly delighted. "You must be joking, Mr. Harvey. We Islanders love the culture of Country H. Of course, we know what it means to make the right decision at the right time. You can do whatever you like today."Harvey smiled and looked at Haruka, who was already kneeling on the floor. "Looks like you didn't take what I said yesterday seriously. Come now, show me the finger you've just used to point at me…"Haruka wept as she extended her left hand. Harvey calmly said, "Haru already said that not only must we admit to our mistakes, but we should also accept our punishment. So… My apologies."Even before Harvey finished his sentence, he had already reached out his hand and grabbed Haruka by her finger. There was a snap, and Haruka's face turned pale as she shuddered in pain. However, she did not dare to show a hint of viciou
"Mr. Leighton, since you have a deal with Harvey, you must hold your part of the bargain. There's no need for him to do this personally. I will oversee the entire process myself." Leighton had not even had a chance to say anything, but Elric had already spoken first."With someone like Mr. Harvey leading us for the next several years, perhaps even the next few decades, the commercial group will reach greater heights! From now on, whoever is opposing him is also opposing me!" Leighton and the others were filled with despair when they heard what Elric had to say. At that moment, they finally understood that their time was over.Harvey looked at Elric with a meaningful smile. He thought if Leighton wanted to resist him, he would teach Leighton a lesson he would never forget. But Elric's decisiveness finally made Harvey understand what a true fence-sitter looked like.After he was done with the Country H Commercial Group, Harvey's position as the chairman was secured. While he did not h
After berating Leighton, Nicholas looked at the entrance into the Judd of Wolsing's residence with even darker eyes. When he returned from Dark Island this time, he only brought back limited resources.Stealing some of the resources from these huge families was one of his core plans for his return. Since the plan to take over Country H Commercial Group had failed, he could not fail when it came to taking over the Judds of Wolsing. When that thought crossed his mind, Nicholas contemplated and sent out a text message.-The following day. The Judds of Wolsing.On the previous night, Veer's mother was once again hit by another wave of illness. They could not solve it despite inviting all the best doctors they could through the night.Last night, one of the doctors who had some skills in mysticism and geomancy said that the reason she fell ill once again probably had something to do with geomancy.That was why Veer personally gave Harvey a call in the morning.However, seeing that
After hearing what Veer had to say, the way Marlee looked at Harvey became even more awkward. While this was a decision made by the higher-ups, it was obvious that they did not have much trust for Harvey despite him being named their geomancy advisor.But this was normal. Harvey had only left for a few days before something happened to her grandma again. She could not blame them for thinking that Harvey was not that much of an expert himself.Harvey did not pay much mind to it and simply shook his head at Marlee, signaling to her it was fine. Only after that did he narrow his eyes and look in front.When all the people heard Veer was willing to offer up 20% of his total share as thanks, they became excited. Since after they had obtained these 20% shares, no matter how bad their life would be in the future, something that would never change was the fact that they were shareholders of the companies belonging to the Judd family.They could earn quite a lot without doing anything yearl
Marlee leaned closer to Harvey and whispered, "Is this Master Elaris very powerful?"Harvey calmly replied, "He's probably quite powerful. Maybe he can permanently dispel whatever that is haunting your family."While he had some clues, Harvey could not tell what was happening within the residence for now. Since he could not find the reason for her illness, he could not give them an answer yet.Marlee frowned. While Master Elaris also looked exceptionally talented, she did not believe he could be more capable than Harvey.When Master Elaris had everyone's attention, he said to all present, "I will be straightforward, everyone, as per how a monk should be. Everyone here wants the shares and intends to be the major shareholder. Once we have those shares, it can benefit our children and their descendants. I believe all of you know this much."But the question is, there are so many people here today. There's no way that all of us can perform our techniques together simultaneously, corr
Master Osborne made himself look imposing as he put on a pagan hand seal using his right hand before pointing his finger at Master Elaris.And then, the wooden sword behind seemed to hum and vibrate. It flew out of its sheath, floating in mid-air.All the other geomancy masters looked at this scene with shock. Not everyone could do that."The Animate Sword technique? Wait, no…" Harvey was shocked. At first, he thought this was the Animate Sword Technique that existed within the purview of martial arts. But after giving it a better look, it was not.It was simply one of the techniques used in mysticism.When it came to geomancy and mysticism, the ones that Harvey was more familiar with were the ones used to murder, since he was an expert in the killing of others. However, the Animate Sword Technique that Master Osborne used seemed to remind him of the sleight of hand used by street magicians. That was not something that Harvey understood.Ven Marlee was quite surprised. As someone
When Master Elaris saw that Master Osborne from the Thatch had surrendered, he smiled. "You've learned your lesson well!"Meanwhile, Mater Osborne quickly retrieved his wooden sword. Then, he started cleaning it as something he cherished very much. He thought he could make a name for himself today, but he never expected that he would be completely humiliated instead.When everyone else saw what happened to Master Osborne, their expressions turned pale. Master Elaris from the Warding Temple… His powers seemed to be beyond their imagination.Unless one possessed power; otherwise, they would end up just like Master Osborne of the Thatch. Were they expected to be humiliated just like that?"Alright, everyone. Is there anyone else here who has an issue with me? Feel free to demonstrate your powers. If there's no one else, then there's no point in fighting over this anymore. I shall aid the Judds in fighting against this curse of theirs." Master Elaris even took out a string of beads and
