Harvey and Jordan walk out of the police station. James Rocks' arrest happened so quickly, even with just Jordan showing his face. Jordan still glances at Harvey, hoping that Harvey is satisfied with what he has just done. Harvey just stayed silent with a calm face.

Jordan looked at his cell phone. A report came to him. “Mr. Harvey, a gift has been delivered to Andreas Brown. A love letter from the police.”

Jordan grinned. Commander Piers was more dexterous than Jordan had expected.

Harvey kept walking casually. He nodded slowly. “Good. The man needs to feel a little tension.”

Jordan agreed with Hervey's words. As a person under a general, he knew very well the consequences of doing the wrong thing in front of a legend like Harvey. Of course someone like Andreas Brown would have a miserable life ahead of him. Having an affair with the general's wife is certainly not a light sin.

At the Brown family residence, Andreas panicked when two men in police uniforms came to his house. The two policemen handed him a letter. With a pale face, he immediately went to his father.

“Papa! Look at this, how could this happen?” Andreas showed the letter to Johan Brown, his father. His father, who was eating breakfast, immediately stood up from his seat.

Johan glared at the contents of the letter. It contained a criminal charge against Andreas. “What is this? How did this letter get here? Andreas! Did you do something wrong?”

Andreas furrowed his brow. “Of course not, Papa! I didn't do anything wrong.”

Johan was silent for a moment. His eyes narrowed slightly at the sight of his son. Over the past few years Andreas had indeed held several projects belonging to the Brown family company, but that didn't seem to be the case. Andreas had always played it clean.

Johan caught his breath. “Do you have a problem with anyone else? There are bad people doing this.”

Andreas looked down to his left while frowning. “The only one I have a problem with is Harvey. Whitley's ex-husband.”

Johan was silent. He raised one eyebrow. Andreas raised his gaze and looked back at Johan. “But there's no way that Harvey did it. He's just a poor man. He doesn't even have money to take a taxi.”

Johan threw the letter on the table. “Then who made trouble with you?”

Andreas shook his head. “No idea, Papa.”

Johan exhaled. His forehead furrowed as he thought. “You take it easy, Andreas. Everything will be fine. Your uncle is a man with a strong position in the military. He should be able to protect you.”

Andreas nodded. “All right, Papa. Uncle Cole will definitely beat that man up. I don't want any disturbances at my wedding.”

Johan nodded. “You take it easy.”

Johan immediately took his cell phone and called Cole Brown, his younger brother. He told the man what had happened.

“What? How dare that man do that to Andreas. Take it easy, brother. I'll teach that man a lesson. Your son is like my son. I won't let anyone mess with him!” Cole said this passionately on the phone.

Johan smiled and nodded. “I knew I could count on you, Cole. Let me know when you've caught him. I want to teach that guy a lesson before throwing him in jail.”

Cole chuckled. “Sure thing, big brother. You can break a few bones later.”

After a few days, Harvey wanted to take a walk outside. He was still enjoying himself as an ordinary person, on his own terms. Even in dressing he only used very simple clothes, far from the impression of a General.

Harvey was about to retire, so he did not care about what others thought of him for now. His life could now go on as he wished. He had no time to deal with unimportant and annoying things. After all, it was too easy for him to trample on others if Harvey wanted to.

Harvey's steps stopped at a sizable building. A jewelry store called Big House Gold. He took a good look at the store. Then he stepped inside without hesitation.

The store was quite busy. Several employees were busy serving the customers, mostly women in fancy clothes. Harvey was not interested in the scene. He wanted to do something important here. However, it was there that he heard an unpleasant voice. “Whitley! Look, your stalker is here!”

Harvey immediately turned to the source of the voice. It turned out that not far from his side were Whitley and a friend. A beautiful woman with an annoying gaze, Valencia Garth. Valencia folded her arms across her chest. “Isn't he your ex-husband, Whitley?”

Whitley clicked her tongue while wearing a disgusted expression. “Don't remind me of my bad memories being this loser's wife. Besides, why are you stalking me, Harvey? Stop being my stalker and accept the fact that you're just trash to me!”

Harvey only looked into Whitley's eyes for a moment, then ignored her again. “I don't have time to be your stalker. I have business here.”

Whitley tilted her head. “What business? That's just your excuse for following me, right? Just so you know, I can report you. Stalkers and losers like you are bound to get into trouble if you keep following me around.”

Harvey didn't want to think about it anymore. This woman had already dumped him in the most painful way. There was no point in giving her time. “I'm just going to pick something up. It has nothing to do with you.”

Whitley and Valencia immediately laughed when they heard that. Even Valencia gave a very dismissive laugh. “Whitley, did you hear that? Poor people seem to take things in places like this.”

Whitley smiled with one lip raised. “Does ‘taking’ mean ‘stealing’, Harvey? Not just a loser and a stalker, but a criminal! This man is completely out of his mind.”

Harvey ignored the two women. He walked past them. However, Whitley immediately held him back and pushed him back. The women's eyes were glaring at Harvey.

Whitley with a hateful look snorted. “I won't let a stalker like you in this place. You should leave immediately, Harvey. I don't want you anywhere near me.”

Valencia waved her palms in dismissal. “Get him out of this place. Waiter! This guy is so annoying. He's a stalker, please kick him out!”

Valencia deliberately said it loudly, so several people immediately turned their heads towards them. Not wanting any commotion, a shop assistant ran towards them. A woman with a ponytail who had the name Sarah on her name tag.

Sarah immediately grabbed Harvey's hand. “Sir, you can't disturb our customers. Please leave immediately or I will use harsh means.”

Sarah's gaze pretty much described how she saw Harvey from the outside. With Harvey's appearance that doesn't look like a rich man, he must have the same thoughts as Whitley and Valencia. Thinking Harvey is a stalker.

However, Harvey did not oblige Sarah. He quickly took out his wallet and showed a black card to Sarah. Sarah instantly opened her eyes wide. She immediately let go of Harvey's hand and bowed her head. “I'm sorry, sir. It turns out you are a VVIP member here.”

Whitley instantly tilted her head and frowned. “Why are you apologizing? What is it?”

Sarah swallowed. “The black card is a sign that this gentleman has access to our safe services. That is, this gentleman has a very valuable item in our store.”

Instantly Whitley and Valencia opened their eyes wide. They glanced at Harvey in disbelief. “You're not making this up, waiter. He's just a poor man and a criminal! There's no way he has that kind of access card.”

Sarah pointed at the card with both palms. “This is the proof, Miss. He is an important person to us. Mr. Harvey, welcome. Please come in.”

Harvey then left the two of them. When he was about to pass Whitley and Valencia, he paused and glanced over. “You should have behaved yourself, Whitley. If you do that, you'll get something you didn't expect.”

With a smile, Harvey then walked away. Whitley irritably looked back. She clucked while clenching her fists. “Yuck! That's disgusting!”

    The sword slash released a powerful wave of energy. Light flashed, then struck Liam's body repeatedly—without pause, without mercy. Each impact screeched through the air, as if the space itself was being torn apart. Liam's screams exploded, echoing loudly throughout the city. His voice mixed with the thundering energy as the demon's body began to crumble, piece by piece, under the holy slashes. The residents who heard it simultaneously covered their ears. Some fell to their knees, their faces grimacing. The vibrations traveled through the ground and air, hitting their heads with a piercing pain. "Arrgh! My ears!" "Mr. Jordan... I can't take this!" One by one, people collapsed. Their bodies fell and thrashed on the ground, muffled screams escaping their throats. The pain pierced their heads, as if something was tearing them apart from within. Jordan staggered. His hands reflexively covered his ears, energy immediately flowing to coat his body—but the pain remained, making his fo

    Unexpectedly, the flow of people moved in the opposite direction. One by one, silhouettes appeared at the edge of Duskvale, their steps leading them to the battle site. Jessica clicked her tongue, her voice short and sharp. Her gaze swept over the crowd that was getting closer. "Why are they coming here?" she muttered, her eyebrows furrowed. "Isn't the evacuation route on the west side?" Jordan didn't turn his head. His gaze remained fixed ahead, his expression flat. "They were lured by Liam and Qwentin," he said calmly, almost emotionlessly. "The promise of immortality made them forget how to think." Boston knelt on the ground, his body swaying as if his weight could no longer be supported. His breathing was labored, his face pale with a purplish tinge, a sign that the poison was still working. Jordan turned to Niel. His voice was firm, leaving no room for argument. "Niel, take Boston to Allison. He's pushed himself too hard." Niel nodded immediately. Without hesitation, he g

    In a matter of seconds, Boston's body changed. His muscles swelled and tensed, as if pumped from within. His skin stretched, veins protruding clearly on his arms and neck. The aura of ki energy that enveloped him surged wildly—spinning, pulsing, hitting the air around him like invisible waves.The roof of the building shook slightly. Tiny dust particles rose. The pressure was heavy.Qwentin's smile slowly faded. For the first time, something unfamiliar appeared in his eyes—not anger, not arrogance. Alertness.He swallowed unconsciously, then took a step back.“What is this...?” he muttered.Qwentin didn't stay still. As soon as he saw the change, his fighting instincts kicked in. He lunged forward, his hands moving quickly, and one by one, knives shot out from between his fingers.Whoosh! Whoosh!But Boston disappeared. He didn't jump. He didn't dodge. He vanished.Qwentin's eyes widened.“What—?!”Suddenly, a shadow appeared on his left side. Boston. Too close.Before Qwentin could r

    Qwentin wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand. The red stain remained on his skin—contrasting with the faint smile that slowly appeared.Then, without warning, his body leaped backward, landing lightly several meters away from Jessica. Dust scattered as his feet hit the ground.He clenched his fist. The knuckle bars on his fingers clattered softly, emitting a cold metallic sound. His body lowered, taking a perfect fighting stance.His eyes stared sharply at Jessica.“Such a weak punch,” he said softly, “is nothing but a joke to me.”Jessica's eyes widened. Without hesitation, she lunged forward. Her javelin was drawn, its tip slicing through the air, aimed directly at Qwentin's body.However, something unexpected happened. Qwentin did not dodge.Clang!He parried it with his knife. Small sparks flew between the clashing metals. In a movement that was almost invisible, Qwentin was already at close range. His fist hit Jessica in the stomach.DUGH!The ai

    The people staring at the numbers fell silent for a long time. Especially those sitting in expensive chairs, in marble-lined rooms, behind screens that reflected blue light onto their faces. Before their eyes, the genetically engineered recording continued to play—a dead body, resurrected. Breathing. Moving. Alive.This wasn't just science. It felt like the work of gods.But at the same time, the names Qwentin and Liam were clearly displayed. Two criminals. Two figures who should have been behind bars, not wielding this kind of power.Some people clenched their fists. Others swallowed hard. They knew this was wrong. They knew it was dangerous. But they also knew one other thing. Everyone, no matter how good they are, has someone they want to bring back to life.“Oh, look at this.”Qwentin lifted his device slightly, the screen reflecting light onto his face. The list of names kept growing, row after row, as if there was no end to it. Calls came in one after another, without pause.“We

    Duskvale had been abandoned. The streets that were usually bustling were now deserted, leaving only silent buildings and the wind blowing without witnesses. Not many figures were visible. Harvey's men had completed their task neatly.However, for Harvey himself, the situation was far from good. The poison in his body had not yet subsided. Every time he tried to exert himself, his body refused—his muscles felt heavy, his strength never gathering. The poison was too strong, clearly not ordinary poison.Harvey jumped onto the roof of the building and stood at the edge. In the distance, the sun had shifted to orange, its light stretching between the empty buildings. He took a deep breath, forcing his body to be alert. The promised time was almost up—only minutes before they arrived.Soon after, the roar of propellers broke the silence. A helicopter descended low. Qwentin and Liam jumped out, landing right in front of Harvey. The smiles on their faces were effortless, full of satisfaction.
