"Becoming an immortal once one reaches the end of the path?" It was the first time that Harvey had heard something like that, but he quickly recomposed himself."Whether there are immortals or not is irrelevant since they only exist in legend. What if they do exist? When I'm around, no one can beat me if he's not an immortal. Even if he is immortal, I can confidently say I can trade my life for his."As for you, Frederick. You're in no position to lecture me. Let's see, I want to thank you for telling me this secret. If you grovel before me, I can let you leave this place alive.""Never!" Frederick was quite surprised at Harvey's boldness but could not surrender when things had already reached this point. He waved his hand again, and all those assassins gritted their teeth as they charged toward Harvey together.Harvey sighed and let go of the repeating crossbow in his hand. Then, he went inside the crowd, instantly throwing a few slaps.As the smacking sounds echoed, several figu

Harvey's eyes were calm, as if he was saying something ordinary. However, his words seemed to exert a faint pressure, and Frederick could not help but shudder when he noticed it.There were mixed emotions on Frederick's face, but after some time, he gritted his teeth and knelt on the ground."I, Frederick Robbin, acknowledge and greet you, Mr. Harvey. From today onward, I will obey your every command. I am your dog and will bare my fangs at whoever you want!" It was evident that Frederick had considered things through.Now that he had lost an arm, forget about remaining one of the four kings. It would be great if he had even half of his power before he lost his arm. Even if Harvey did not do him in, plenty of those within the Alliance would use him to climb the ladder. In other words, unless he wanted to die, the only other alternative was to survive and become Harvey's lapdog.Frederick clearly knew from the power Harvey had shown that the two of the other four kings could not do

"That's right," Harvey nodded.The woman briefly gave Harvey a good look, and a meaningful glint appeared in her eyes. After that, she gestured to a direction with her left hand and said, "This way, please."The two of them quickly arrived at an office renovated from a residential manor.The office was not that big, measuring about 1075 square feet. However, not only was it filled with vibes from the classical era, but some antiques were also used as decorations. While it looked simplistic, it made the entire office luxurious and opulent.Pottery from the 10th century, a horse statue from the 13th century, fabric from the 16th century… Plenty of antiques were being placed here, just the starters.One was a perfectly preserved vase from the 10th century, and it alone was worth a fortune.Harvey glanced at them before following the woman to an upholstered sofa made from the finest pear wood. An old man wearing a traditional garb was taking a sip from his teacup as he sat on the sof

"What do I mean?" Elric gave Harvey a deep and meaningful smile. "I believe you're also a smart man, so you should know what I mean. I'll explain it in simple terms."When the board was selecting the next chairman, an error had been made. An error that shouldn't have been possible. And that was how you have chosen to be the next chairman. In order to maintain fairness within the Commercial Group, a chairman would only be relieved of his duty when he reached retirement age or willingly resigned other than committing a serious error."Do you understand what I'm saying?"Harvey looked back at Elric with a faint smile. "You want me to resign.""Youths like you learn so quickly!" exclaimed Elric as he stared at Harvey deeply. "From my perspective, the position of chairman is precarious. It'll be hard for those with no talents to retain that position."That's why it's a good choice for you to find a reason to resign in exchange for wealth that would last you your entire life. You should

Harvey clapped his hands together and said, "See? I already allowed you to show your sincerity, but you didn't accept it. Whose fault is this, then? Then again, while you're not someone earnest, I am. If you really want me to give up my position, I can agree on one condition."Elric's expression darkened, and he slowly said, "State your condition."Harvey calmly spoke, "Have the Country H Commercial Group terminate their partnership with all Island Nation entities. Don't let the Island Nation have a chance to enter our country's market from now on.""That is preposterous!" Elric instantly became furious and no longer held back his anger when he heard Harvey's condition. There was no point in continuing with the act anymore."Do you know how vital the Island Nation's market is to the commercial group? Once their capital has been removed, how will we continue doing our business? As a businessman, you should also understand that capital has no nationalities."We have worked so hard a
