Stefan Augustus did not say another word. At this point, there was no way out for him.He waved his hand before revealing a piece of yellow talisman burning out of thin air.The moment the Demon Monk took action, the expert already made his move.He flicked his finger before quickly swinging his sword with his other hand.Even if the Demon Monk was basically a walking corpse, he was still instinctively scared by the attack.His fighting instincts told him that the slash was extraordinary.Boom!That said, his strong will propelled him forward after a short pause.Swoosh!The swing of a blade was heard, along with a fierce howl.The Demon Monk instantly landed on the ground. Countless scars were seen on his extremely patchy face.Soon after, the expert sheathed his sword.The Demon Monk shattered into pieces like glass on the ground.Stefan gazed in disbelief.Despite Aenar Temple’s short history, the Demon Monk was still one of Stefan’s biggest trump cards.That said, he

Stefan chuckled bitterly after hearing Harvey’s words.He had suffered huge losses in this battle. Not only were a lot of his trusted subordinates and lackeys taken out… He had almost lost his life as well.What right did he have to go against Amos at this point? What could he even use?Harvey glanced calmly at Tojuro with a curious expression.“The Shinto Way?“I heard that your school mixes both the Island Nations’ swordsmanship and miracles.“It’s considered as a state religion of the country as well.“Is that true?”Tojuro looked at Harvey with gloomy eyes. “Who are you? How do you know so much about the Shinto Way?”“I heard that other than swordsmanship, your school got ahold of some crazy Yin-Yang Techniques and incantations as well.“That said, you’re already this impressive at such a young age.“That’s enough to prove that you’re not interested in small tricks like those. You must be quite the character.“How about this? Tell me everything about the people suppor

Amos gestured for Elaine to sit beside him, then picked up a glass of wine after feeling the sweet and tender body of his woman.“Speak your mind. We’ve been together for a long time now,” he said while swirling his glass around. “I can tell by the look on your face.”Elaine pressed her finger on Amos’s lips, smiling. “I’ll tell you, but I do hope you won’t get mad after hearing this.”Amos slowed down his breathing. “What can even shake me at this point?”Elaine hesitated for a moment. “Evermore sent Tojuro to assassinate Stefan.”Amos froze before he came to his senses. “He’s dead?”“No.”Elaine’s face darkened.“Great Wall Vaati was stalled, and Stefan’s subordinates were mostly killed… But he’s still alive. Tojuro’s plan failed.”“He’s that impressive?”Amos set his glass down, frowning; he didn’t think Stefan would be this resilient.Elaine shook her head.“His subordinates wouldn’t have ended up this way if that was the case.“Harvey saved him at the most crucial m

Vroom!A few Toyota Prados drove towards the Outskirts Racecourse at dusk.Harvey didn’t shut down Stefan’s words completely. He only said that there’d be a sacrifice for him to take action.Stefan was expected to give Harvey the Nine Eyed Beads if he were to rise to power.Even though the Eyed Beads were extremely important, Stefan’s greatest threat was the fact that he wouldn’t be able to steal the throne and lose his life in the process.After realizing that, he instantly agreed to the condition.With Harvey’s promise, Stefan immediately let go of his fear and decided to demand an explanation for his assassination.Harvey was on Stefan’s side because he wanted to help Stefan suppress any opposition. He also wanted to see just how powerful Stefan would be if the latter decided to go all out.The convoy arrived at the racecourse soon after. The place was extremely spacious; there was at least a thousand acres worth of land for activity.There were only a dozen VIP lounges aro

Harvey squinted at Naruse, while Stefan showed a horrible expression when he saw the woman beside Naruse.“Why is that woman here?”A trusted subordinate beside Stefan frowned as well.“Milan Osborne?“Isn’t she supposed to be abroad, Mr. Stefan?“She was supposed to be studying out of the country.“Why is she here now?”Harvey instinctively glanced at the inconspicuous woman after hearing the conversation.The woman was wearing a light yellow dress with no makeup. She had a beautiful face, but her thin lips were enough to show her cold personality.A lot of young men looked at her passionately, but they simply wouldn’t dare get any closer to her. She was seated right beside Naruse, after all.She completely ignored everyone around her, only occasionally talking to Naruse.She quietly sipped her glass of cocktail, completely out of place with the group she was in.Harvey squinted at the woman for a moment.“She’s from the Osborne family?”“You must’ve heard of her,” Stefa
