"If that's the case, step aside and kneel! You have no right to stand here!" Harvey pointed at the drainage at the side, disdainful. All the Islanders present felt embarrassed after hearing that. They were furious, wishing they could kill him right there and then.Leighton and the other traitors could only watch with widened eyes. They still couldn't understand where Harvey got the courage to threaten the people of an entire country on his own. Did he know no fear?Yvonne looked at Harvey with admiration in her eyes.This was Harvey York—someone who could stand above the rest even when he was on his own. The Islanders were nothing before him."Fool! You're a huge fool!"Before Shingen could react, the Battle Demon of the Shindan Way, Souichiro Yashiro, stepped forward and walked to the edge of the stage. There was a longsword and shortsword on his belt. He glared at Harvey and said darkly, "I know you, Harvey. Back in Mordu, you ambushed my father and destroyed the Shindan Way
All the Shindan Way's elites didn't feel ashamed about it at all. To them, everything would be fine as long as Souichiro had enough power whether it was gained through an external means or otherwise.In the Island Nation's martial arts community, power was everything. No one cared how you got that power. The end justified the means.At this time, they were all expecting that Souichiro could avenge Akio.When Leighton heard what the Shindan Way's higher-ups had to say, his eyes widened in realization. "I see! It's similar to one of our sayings, where a cat is a good cat regardless of its colors as long as it can catch rats! In this world, power is everything!"The rest of the Islanders agreed with that expression. Since Souichiro wanted to have his revenge, it wouldn't be strange if he was willing to use everything he had at his disposal. As long as he could win, as long as he could kill Harvey… As long as he could succeed, it didn't matter what methods he used.Many Islanders st
"Harvey, I'm different from my father! He's a real knight, and he likes to duel others fair and square. He always gives others the benefit of the doubt. That's why he was killed after being ambushed by you!" Souichiro started to whitewash his father, although one might wonder what was the point of doing that now."But I'm different. As the new Battle Demon of Shindan Way, I will use everything I can to win. If you think you can win against me just because you defeated my father using an ambush, then all I can say is that you're too naïve!"Now, kneel and guard my father's tomb for a decade! Tell everyone that Country H's martial arts aren't as good as the Island Nation's martial arts and that Country H isn't as good as the Island Nation! Then, I can consider not killing you."Harvey signaled Yvonne to go to the corner and then looked at the sky. "The sky's getting dark. No wonder some people started dreaming.""You… You talk too much!" Seeing that Harvey refused to surrender, Sou
Gah!Souichiro, who was in mid-air, coughed out a mouthful of blood. He was thrown away like a ragdoll and slammed right into a wall, the shape of his figure etched on it. Blood trickled out of his eyes, nose, and mouth; a flurry of expressions crossed his face.Shock, confusion, and disbelief.Souichiro couldn't believe that he was defeated so cleanly. Regret, pain, and helplessness filled him. He never expected that despite going all out with Demonbane, the ancestral armor, and the exoskeletal frame, he would still lose to Harvey in one hit.At this time, Souichiro suddenly realized something. His father most probably didn't die in an ambush—the man really did lose to Harvey… "Harvey, you…"Souichiro still wanted to say something."So noisy!" Harvey slapped Souichiro with an indifferent expression, sending the man flying through the air. There was a loud sound, and Souichiro's head spun to the side. Black blood trickled out of his mouth, and he was at death's door…He defeat
To the Shindan Way, Souichiro's failure meant that the Shindan Way's reputation had been completely soiled. Before, the Shindan Way's Sword Saint, Akio, had already been defeated by Harvey. He also easily defeated the Shindan Way's demon, and they couldn't tell if Soichiro was truly dead.No matter how they looked at it, Harvey wanted to uproot them completely. The disciples of the Shindan Way, consumed by fury, looked at each other and roared. They pulled out the longsword at their waist and rushed to the stage. It was obvious they wanted to kill Harvey together, motivated by their rage."Fools…" Harvey took a step forward.Crack…The tiles on the ground were shattered and immediately shot at everyone around them. Every fragment was like a bullet shooting into the night.Arghhh!There were screams, and in just an instant, most of the Shindan Way elites had all fallen. All of them were clutching either their wrists or their knees. While they didn't lose their lives, most of them
Harvey narrowed his eyes and frowned. He couldn't lock into Takumi's position, as if he had been dragged by Takumi into another world. An invisible aura seemed to spread around him, chaining his flesh. He couldn't move even if he wanted to.The Yin-Yang Technique was indeed quite terrifying.Even Yvonne could feel how powerful Takumi was. She instinctively said, "Watch out!"Harvey nodded and closed his eyes. However, even his senses were telling him the entire space was still being warped. He seemed to have fallen into a deep abyss."Ha. Is that all you've got…" At the same time, Takumi's figure appeared right behind Harvey, holding a silver dagger. He flicked his finger and flung the dagger.The dagger whistled as it flew out; the instant it was released, it transformed into many daggers and attacked Harvey from all directions. Harvey suddenly opened his eyes and flicked his finger.Clang!The silver dagger fell in mid-air and, with a "thud", buried into the ceiling not that
Leighton and the others couldn't believe what Takumi was saying. They stared at the blood from his fingers. They couldn't believe that even the Way of Wood's Takumi couldn't survive one attack from Harvey. Now, the Islanders had to take Harvey even more seriously.Aya, from the ruling royal family's branch family, narrowed her eyes. If they could recruit someone like Harvey, then it would greatly benefit the future of the Island Nation."Takumi!" A group of men from the Way of Wood carefully helped Takumi up. A few Island Nation's doctors rushed over, trying to find a way to heal him.Takumi ignored all of them. Instead, he glared at Harvey. "How dare you cripple me, Harvey! I'm telling you this right now—this isn't over! You dare cripple an Onmyoji from the Way of Wood? You've made yourself our family's mortal enemy! I will kill you however I can! I will shred apart everyone that has anything to do with you! I will even dig out all your ancestors' graves and destroy their corps
"Not only are the Island Nation's martial arts at a disastrous level, but so is your mysticism." Harvey played around with the Demonbane in his hand. "I told you to give up, but isn't it a little too late to feel any regrets?"When hearing Harvey's words, the Islanders couldn't help but narrow their eyes. He was arrogant… He was simply too arrogant!Abito Way's leader, Shigeki Matsuda, was originally quite calm. However, even he was feeling somewhat agitated. If no one could stop Harvey today, then the Islanders would lose all their dignity! Shigeki couldn't care less about bullying the younger generation despite being a senior. He slammed his hand on the coffee table next to him and immediately soared onto the stage."And who are you?" Harvey turned his head and narrowed his eyes as he looked at Shigeki. Harvey could feel that he was somewhat dangerous."I am the Abito Way's leader and a sword saint as well. My name is Shigeki Matsuda," Shigeki said slowly."I'm very impressed
