    “After all, Ostrane Bay only sells the highest- class villas and manors!

    “Your family is on the verge of bankruptcy !

    You should understand whether you have the right to be here or not!

    “You need to be verified before coming here!

    “If not, who in the right mind would even introduce you to the place?!”

    Nova Anderson was in anger.

    She dragged Mandy Zimmer here just to show off in front of her.

    But she did not expect that Mandy’s arrival would constantly attract Calum Price’s attention.

    She was annoyed.

    She feared that her man would instantly ditch her, but she would not dare go against him either. That was why she had no choice but to lash out against Mandy at this moment.

    Mandy was boiling with anger after hearing those words.

    “Why would I need to experience this here?

    “If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t even be here right now! I…”

    “What?! What?!

    “You’re unworthy to be here in the first place!

    Nova let out a scoff.

    “The houses here are at least fifteen thousand dollars per square foot!

    “Don’t think that you’re actually impressive for living in a rundown villa!

    “You can’t buy a house here even if you sell yours!”

    Nova showed a disdainful glare.

    “Let me ask you! Do you think you can actually buy a property here?”

    Calum wretchedly sized up Mandy.

    He fantasized about her pouncing right into his arms after taking all the provocation.

    “Alright, Nova! That’s enough!

    Aunt Anderson showed a bitter look, but the words that came from her mouth were way harsher.

    “You know that Mandy’s in a sorry state!

    Why would you agitate her like this?

    “You’re being so disrespectful!

    “Other than the property’s price, you need to be verified before you can even buy anything here! No ordinary person would be able to own a house in a place like this!

    “Even people like us can barely afford a small house here.

    “Mandy and her family wouldn’t even be able to buy a garage!”

    Mandy was utterly infuriated when she pointed at Aunt Anderson.

    “You…”

    Harvey cracked a smile before patting Mandy’s hand, calming her down.

    Then, he indifferently glanced at the mother and daughter.

    “Fifteen thousand dollars per square foot does sound quite intimidating…

    “But we’d be able to afford anything here if we want to.”

    “Tch!

    “Are you sure about that?

    “Who even gave you the right to buy anything here?

    “Mandy’s ninth branch is in a dire situation right now! Her family also owes an enormous amount of money!

    “She has nothing to spend on a damn house!

    “Aren’t you scared of biting your own tongue?!

    Nova glared at Mandy, She was filled with ecstasy after seeing the bitter look on her face.

    Harvey utterly disrespected her before this.

    So, it was only natural for her.

    In her mind, dragging Mandy here was her best decision ever.

    Not only was she able to ridicule Mandy, but she also managed to get Harvey into the crossfire.

    ‘Wow!

    ‘This feels great!’

    With a hundred and fifty thousand dollars, her ego was through the roof! It was her first time experiencing what it was like to truly trample on others!

    Aunt Anderson showed a horrible expression.

    “You better tell it straight out, Harvey!

    “What do you mean by that?!”

    Harvey York calmly smiled before pointing at Nova Anderson.

    Nova’s eyes twitched before coldly scoffing.

    “Enough talking to a live-in son-in-law, Mother!

    “We’re wasting our time!

    Naturally, Nova thought she had never cheated on anything.

    It was Harvey who got her into this situation.

    ‘If it weren’t for this b*stard saving Chana Jackson, I wouldn’t have tried to take credit in the first place!

    ‘If it weren’t for this b*stard, I wouldn’t have given Chana blood in the first place!

    ‘If it weren’t for him, I would’ve been a higher-up of the hospital with fifteen million dollars and a villa! Why would I even swallow my pride to look for a house here?!’

    Nova had no gratitude toward Harvey. She was filled with hatred, thinking that Harvey was the cause of all this suffering.

    She believed he had nothing to do with her getting out of the situation unscathed and the money intact.

    Mandy Zimmer frowned after hearing those words.

    “How can you talk like this, Nova?

    “No matter what, Harvey’s still your brother -in-law.”

    “Brother-in-law?

    “Must be fake.

    Nova quickly belittled Harvey before glancing at Mandy.

    “Oh, Mandy. We asked you here so you can have a taste of what it’s like to be in the upper social circle.

    “You might even get to meet with a wealthy man.

    “And yet you had to bring this live-in son-in -law with you…

    “Can’t you see that the people here are all wealthy and powerful?

    “Harvey’s stench will overpower the smell of money!”

    Naturally, Nova completely thought of herself as some sort of hotshot after getting that money.

    She disagreed with Harvey coming to such a high-class place and stealing her spotlight.

    Harvey curiously looked at Calum Price. The mother and daughter finally seemed to have a rich man to support them.

    If not, they could not even buy a restroom in such a place with the money they had.

    With that said, it seemed as if Calum was being tricked here.

    Just as Harvey was about to expose the entire situation, Mandy instantly felt annoyed after hearing the insults thrown at Harvey.

    “What’s the meaning of this, Nova?!”

    exclaimed Mandy coldly.

    “Everyone can come here!

    “You talk like this entire building belongs to you!

    “You call me so many times for me to come take a look! My mother did the same!

    “Do you think I need your help socializing with people from the upper social circle?

    Mandy quickly held Harvey’s hand.

    “Since you don’t like Harvey, then we’ll just look around ourselves!”

    Nova coldly scoffed.

    “Don’t be disrespectful, Mandy!

    “My mother told me that we can’t forget our poor relatives now that we’re rich! That was why we asked you to come and experience it here! You need to stop being so prideful!

    “Do you really think you can help us with anything at all?”

    The entire sales office was filled with all sorts of wealthy people in the city.

    The staff in charge were all filled with beautiful women with slender legs and porcelain skin.

    Harvey York was completely astonished after heading inside…

    But after regaining his composure, he quickly looked around before finding Mandy Zimmer.

    Other than her, Aunt Anderson and her daughter were there along with the others.

    His head started to throb.

    ‘Doesn’t the Zimmer family have a single member who’s actually normal?’

    ‘Every single one of them is an idiot…’

    Harvey walked over before looking at Mandy.

    “What’s going on, Mandy?”

    Mandy felt relieved after seeing Harvey come over.

    But before she could even say anything, Aunt Anderson, wearing a cotton overcoat, tilted her head before glaring at Harvey.

    “Oh? Isn’t this the Zimmer family’s live-in son-in-law?

    “Did you turn into a different person after a few days?

    “Don’t you know how to greet us?

    “Are you blind or something?”

    Naturally, Aunt Anderson wanted to strangle Harvey to death after what had happened in Archa Corporation.

    Nova Anderson showed a cold glare when she glanced at Harvey.

    Nova was completely fine, partly because Darius Jackson and his wife cared for Chana Jackson. Besides that, Darius accidentally discovered that Nova was related to Harvey.

    For Harvey’s sake, he decided to let Nova off the hook.

    He did not even ask to be reimbursed after giving away a hundred and fifty thousand dollars.

    She stopped working at the hospital but treated herself like a wealthy lady after claiming her money at the bank.

    Not only would she roam around high-class venues daily, she started convincing herself that she was some sort of white swan.

    Losers like Harvey would naturally make Nova filled with disgust.

    A man with slicked-back hair was standing beside Nova.

    He was wearing the sports jacket every single man in finance adored, along with a pair of golden- rimmed glasses, making him seem refined and affluent.

    With that said, he would occasionally glance at Mandy’s long legs with a profound look.

    Harvey frowned while he blocked the man’s gaze before glancing at Aunt Anderson.

    “Ah. It’s you two. Long time no see.”

    Harvey’s attitude annoyed Aunt Anderson, but she held herself back since she was here to embarrass him.

    “Come! Let me introduce you! This is my future son-in-law, Calum Price!

    “You should get along with Young Master Price! He’ll be able to get you a job in the future! You wouldn’t have to rely on being kept man to survive!

    “It’s way better than to cheat your way up anyway.”

    “So what if I’m proud of my work?”

    Aunt Anderson’s expression changed, thinking that Harvey was mocking her.

    “What do you mean by that, you b*stard?

    “You’re saying that I cheat my way up?

    “What did I even do for you to say such a thing?”

    Even though she was extremely fierce, she could not help but feel a little guilty about it.

    After all, this was not the first time the mother and daughter were utterly disrespected by Harvey.

    “It’s nothing…

    Harvey smiled.

    “I’m just trying to warn someone that things wouldn’t be this lucky every time…”

    Chapter 4458

    Not only did Waylon Sacket mess up the entire city’s luck, the families affected by his geomancy would rise for a short while before crumbling again.

    Harvey York looked at the ledger briefly before realizing why Aston Lee was constantly cursed.

    He would walk past a wealthy family’s villa daily while taking walks in the park.

    Waylon had already used his geomancy arts on the family. Since evil energy still gathered outside, weaker people would usually be affected if they walked past the villa.

    It may seem as if Waylon only tampered with geomancy on the surface, but the energy around the villa would naturally be affected.

    Since everything was finally revealed, Harvey did not mind dealing with the situation once and for all.

    While writing a way to solve the problem, Harvey told Castiel Foster to bring people to change the messed up city back to normal.

    That said, Harvey suddenly frowned after flipping to the ledger’s last pages.

    Simon Zimmer and Lilian Yates.

    Harvey’s head started to spin after seeing the two names.

    He did not expect his parents-in-law would seek help from Waylon as well.

    No wonder Mandy Zimmer had gotten into so many messy businesses as soon as she got here.

    Not a single one of her affairs was normal either.

    Simply put, Mandy and her family were already in a mess.

    Their financial status was supposed to be on the upswing.

    The best bet was for Mandy and the others to stay away from their villa for the time being or ask Castiel to help out instead.

    With that said, Harvey understood the kind of woman Lilian was.

    Whoever ruined her luck would be her enemy for life.

    Harvey pulled out a phone to call Mandy, but he only sighed.

    After all, he did not know how to explain that he was actually a real geomancy expert.

    While Harvey was hesitating to make the call, his phone suddenly vibrated.

    A text came from Mandy.

    It was just a one-liner. Mandy wanted him to fetch her at Ostrane Bay’s sales office.

    Harvey froze. He did not expect Mandy would text him herself.

    He thought they needed some downtime, away from each other for a while.

    But since she gave him ground, he would naturally take it.

    He quickly told Castiel to do what he needed before heading outside. Then, he waved Thomas Burton to drive his Audi over before they headed to Ostrane Bay’s sales office.

    *** Ostrane Bay was one of the best real estate projects in Golden Sands.

    The developers were none other than one of the six Hermit Families, the Jackson family.

    Besides the vast land, the place was in an excellent location surrounded by breathtaking views.

    Not only that, the people here were either rich or powerful.

    The people who live in Ostrane Bay did not just buy houses there. Rather, they bought themselves into a social circle!

    Fifty percent of wealthy families in Golden Sands would own a house there. This was enough to pose a problem.

    Naturally, the people who got into the circle had immense status, background, and connections.

    That was why the entire Golden Sands would be in an uproar even if only a few ordinary houses were for sale there.

    Chapter 4457

    Watson Braff only came to ask for Harvey York’s help to look at the Braff family’s manor before he left.

    That said, his arrival had guaranteed the outcome of the geomancy fight.

    An hour later, Waylon Sacket transferred the shop under Harvey’s name.

    He also had to take his disciples and leave Golden Sands.

    No matter how resentful he was, he knew he would end up worse if he did not comply. His daughter was completely crushed. Her future would probably be ruined if he kept being arrogant about the situation.

    Amaia Sacket and the others were about to resign, but Harvey spoke up for them instead, only making them reflect on their actions for three days.

    It was not such a big deal anyway. On the one hand, Harvey did not want to be this ruthless. On the other hand, he wanted a few more people to help him.

    After all, he would want to avoid keeping the director of the housing department helping him every single time to deal with people.

    No matter how much of a favor he was owed, he could not continuously use it like this.

    Amaia and the others were grateful to Harvey. They bowed before Harvey, saying they would do everything they could to help if he needed them before leaving the place.

    The Volton Hall was dead silent after everyone left.

    Harvey needed more people to open up shop here, so he told Castiel Foster to keep everything the same with the sign down.

    He also could use the place as shelter.

    After all, it would be better to have more places to stay.

    After receiving the order, Castiel immediately got more people from the Aeon Hall to help.

    On the one hand, he wanted to organize all the resources in Volton Hall. On the other hand, he also planned to revamp the entire place.

    The next day, early morning, Castiel secretly held a ledger before handing it over to Harvey.

    “We were too easy on Waylon, Master York!

    “Not only is he scamming other people, he even caused trouble with his geomancy arts!

    “According to the ledger, he completely screwed up Golden Sands just to earn some dirty money!”

    Harvey squinted.

    “He can do that?”

    Castiel put a booklet before Harvey.

    “I have to admit, Master York, Waylon is pretty capable. I managed to find some pages of the Book of Changes while I was looking through his stuff.

    “He must’ve used this to ruin the city’s geomancy.

    “In any case, the entire city’s completely ruined because of it.

    “I went to a few places written in the ledger.

    As expected, the places were in a complete mess.

    “His methods benefitted some of the people who seek him for help…

    “But his methods are only temporary. The people would get a lot of profit for a short time…

    “But they’ll be cursed with bad luck for a long time!”

    Castiel was filled with disdain.

    A true geomancy expert would always act upon circumstance.

    Fate would decide on the matter most of the time.

    “You seem well, but you should be resting at home right now.

    What brings you here?”

    Watson Braff showed a stern expression.

    “There’s no choice. Work’s been busy lately. I have to return to my post soon.

    “Before that, I wanted to thank you in person. After all, you did save me twice.”

    Harvey York smiled.

    “It’s all merely a coincidence. Don’t think about it too much.”

    Amaia Sacket could not help but tremble on the ground after hearing those words. She was filled with nothing but despair.

    After recalling her harsh words to Harvey, she wanted to slam her head on the ground so badly.

    “Right. I heard that you also did my brother a huge favor.”

    Watson remembered something.

    Harvey let out a chuckle.

    “Tell him that he’s being unprofessional. After all, that was supposed to be our little secret.”

    “Alright, alright.”

    Harvey talked to Watson about Soren Braff, as if they had some sort of secret…

    Amaia was completely stupefied after hearing the conversation.

    ‘Why is this b*stard acting so friendly with people from the Braff family?!

    ‘Does he have a good relationship with the Braff brothers?

    ‘I’m finished!

    ‘I’m done for!’

    If Watson were enraged, only her position would be threatened at most.

    But if Soren stepped in, he would look into all her crimes before locking her up for the rest of her life.

    Amaia could not help but glare at her father after all this.

    If Waylon Sacket did not text her to take care of business here, she would not have been here in the first place!

    Not only was her job gone, but her freedom was probably robbed too!

    The disciples were shocked when they saw the sight.

    They all became completely sluggish. They did not expect a mere geomancy expert to be involved with such prominent figures!

    “Alright, Sir York. We’re no strangers. There’s no need to hold back…

    Watson smiled.

    “Don’t address me by my title either. If you really respect me, you’d call me by my name!”

    Harvey chuckled.

    “Of course, Watson.”

    Watson was quite happy to have a brother like Harvey by his side.

    Right as Watson was about to speak again, his phone started ringing.

    “Is it fine if I ask you a favor, Harvey?” he whispered after looking at his phone.

    Harvey froze.

    “What’s up?”

    “The Braff family’s manor has hundreds of years worth of history.

    “There’s always something that felt off about it, but my father loves staying there!

    “But after all these years, his health has been steadily declining.

    “I’d like you to look at the manor during the weekends.

    “If you can do anything about it geomancy-wise, please proceed.

    “If not, I’d like you to convince my father to leave instead…”

    Harvey lightly nodded.

    “Of course.”

    ‘The first-in-command of Golden Sands’ government?!

    ‘Even someone like that is asking for Harvey’s help?!

    ‘What…?’

    Amaia wanted to erase herself from existence so badly!

    Amaia laughed.

    “Listen closely!”

    “I’m the captain of the housing department!”

    “I’m in charge of geomancy shops like yours!”

    “Are you ready to give up now?”

    “Why would he?” A calm voice rang from behind. “From now on, you are relieved from your position.”

    Waylon’s face darkened instantly when he heard those words.

    “Which one of you b*stards said that?” he yelled. “I’ll rip your mouth off!”

    “Me, Watson Braff,” Watson said.

    “Come at me!”

    ‘Watson Braff?!’

    Amaia’s eyes twitched.

    She and the others quickly turned around and looked at the entrance.

    A few people were walking inside, led by a person in a wheelchair.

    He was a dignified man, though he looked a bit pale.

    ‘Watson Braff?’

    ‘The director of the housing department?’

    Amaia was scared witless. She quickly ran toward Watson Braff.

    “Director Braff!”

    Slap!

    Watson didn’t hesitate to slap her immediately.

    “You were about to rip my mouth off, right?”

    “Come on, then!”

    “Now’s your chance!”

    Amaia’s eyes and mouth were twitching frantically.

    “I wouldn’t dare, sir! I…”

    “What’s with the stuttering? Kneel before you speak!”

    Watson immediately cut her off.

    Amaia wouldn’t dare oppose the order; she knew she was in big trouble.

    She slammed her knees to the ground without even caring about the people around her.

    The people she brought looked at each other before doing the same. Nobody dared to raise their heads.

    “Crawl in front of me and kneel with your backs straight!”

    Watson hooked his finger.

    Amaia leaned in, her entire body shivering.

    Slap!

    Watson slapped her again, not holding back at all.

    “As a government official, you don’t even understand how to be fair and just!”

    Slap!

    “You can’t enforce the law properly, but you’re out here distorting the truth?”

    Slap!

    “Did you forget what you swore when you got this position?”

    “Did you forget to serve the people?”

    Slap, slap, slap!

    “Don’t you know that your actions today not only humiliated yourself, but you’ve also dragged the entire housing department and the government down with you?”

    “Kneel here for three days! Stand only when you finally understand what you did wrong!”

    Amaia’s face was completely swollen; blood was seeping out of the corner of her mouth.

    She dared not say a word as she kneeled.

    After all, she was nothing compared to the director of the housing department.

    If he wanted to, not only would her position be thrown out the window, but she would also suffer a lot.

    She would face a horrible death for going against someone like Watson.

    Watson stopped paying attention to Amaia, then stumbled out of his wheelchair.

    “Once again, I’m sorry for my subordinates, Sir York!” he said apologetically as he walked toward Harvey.

    This was the second time the housing department caused trouble to Harvey. He felt very awkward about it.

    Harvey smiled.

    “You’re too kind. You have hundreds of people working for you. It’s only natural that there’s a few bad apples,” he said.

    “No need to take this to heart.”

    “Geomancy arts are the historical treasures of the country for over five thousand years!”

    “It’s used to help the people!”

    “Not to fight!”

    “Challenging people in this line of work is strictly prohibited!”

    “Which geomancy shop are you from, young man? State your name!”

    “I’ll use the law to punish you! I’ll have your shop closed immediately!”

    “You’re clearly unfit to be a geomancy expert for doing something so reckless!”

    “If I don’t teach you a lesson right now, you might hurt a lot more people the next day!”

    Amaia looked as if she was serving justice.

    She was showing a righteous expression, as if she was in the right.

    She was convinced everyone had no choice but to obey her- as if she was the queen of the world.

    Her companions glared at Harvey after hearing her words.

    Someone even called for more backup to close the Fortune Hall.

    Harvey smiled calmly.

    “What’s this? Are you telling me you’re just as shameless as your father?” he taunted.

    “Who are you calling shameless, you b*stard?!”

    His harsh tone agitated Amaia-she was furious.

    Her pride was clearly being challenged. She laughed angrily as she approached Harvey.

    “You’re involved in a crime, kid!”

    “If you keep yapping, I’ll charge you for obstructing the law and insulting a public officer!”

    “You’ll be locked behind bars for the rest of your life!”

    “You don’t get to say if you win or lose! The people here don’t have a say in that, either!”

    “It only works if I say so! Got it?”

    Amaia stuck out her chest and raised her head high, like she was in charge of everything.

    “Your father’s unwilling to admit defeat, but I didn’t think you’d be the same too,” Harvey said, not giving a straight answer.

    “Aren’t you scared of public opinion?”

    Amaia glared disdainfully at Harvey.

    “Public opinion?”

    “Ask around! See who even dares to talk against me! I’ll kill them all!”

    Naturally, public opinion didn’t matter to Amai.

    In her eyes, people without authority had no right to go against her.

    ‘What a joke!’

    ‘Doesn’t he know his limits?’

    Seeing Amaia’s cold smirk and dominant attitude, everyone looked at each other and went to stand on her side.

    Anyone could tell that her authority and background were nothing short of extraordinary.

    Harvey chuckled.

    “So, you’re telling me you’re going to take advantage of us all like the unreasonable people you are?”

    Amaia chuckled coldly, then narrowed her eyes.

    “I’ll be frank.”

    “I’ll do just that!”

    “What are you going to do about it?”

    “Bite me?”

    “Let me tell you something! You can’t do anything to this shop, and you can’t chase my father out of the city either!”

    “On the contrary, you’ll transfer your shop under my father’s name and get out of here as far as you can!”

    Amaia glared at Harvey with disgust.

    “I know you’re resentful. I know you’re angry!”

    “What can you do about it?”

    Harvey took out his phone.

    “You seem pretty impressive. Can I ask who you are?”

  • Harvey York’s Rise to Power Chapter 4453

    Chapter 4453

    ‘Impressive!’

    “This is just impressive!”

    ‘I’ve never seen a geomancy expert do that!’

    Many admiring gazes fell on Harvey.

    “Master York! That’s insane!”

    Castiel didn’t even know what to say.

    “Master York! Master York!” the crowd cheered, excited.

    The entire hall was shaking furiously.

    Harvey wiped his fingers with some tissues, then glanced at Castiel.

    “Get ready to close the shop and tear the sign down.”

    “Alrighty!”

    Castiel hopped outside happily, ready to tear down Volton Hall’s sign.

    Bam!

    At that very moment, the crowd split apart. A group of people in uniforms strode in.

    The leader immediately kicked Castiel to the ground.

    “Who gave you the courage to tear my father’s shop down?”

    It was a woman with short hair.

    She looked to be in her thirties. She had a graceful figure, and her uniform gave her an alluring charm.

    Her femininity aside, she exuded the aura of a proud elite.

    Many people were following her. Every single one of them bore fierce and prideful expressions. It was clear they were privileged people born with a silver spoon.

    The Volton Hall disciples quickly ran forward to welcome her and her men.

    “Senior Amaia!”

    Waylon’s face returned to normal. He finally regained his smug disposition, as if his daughter’s return had revived him.

    The woman nodded, then approached Waylon with a frown.

    “What happened here, Father?”

    Waylon pointed at Harvey, resentful.

    “This b*stard’s business was affected because of Volton Hall.”

    “So, he came to challenge me! He wanted to take over the shop and chase me out of the city.”

    “He even cursed me and slapped me in the face!”

    “If I wasn’t strong enough, I would’ve died by now!”

    Waylon leaned in toward his daughter, showing her his swollen face.

    He cared about his money more than his pride.

    He had invested hundreds and thousands of dollars into Volton Hall. What did a few insults from other people matter if he could keep this place?

    The crowd fell into an uproar.

    They had seen the challenge in its entirety.

    None of them expected Waylon to deny his loss and warp the truth. How shameless of him!

    Castiel got back up, wanting to retort. However, Harvey waved a hand to stop him.

    Harvey didn’t expect Waylon to be this wretched.

    Since Waylon wanted to make things worse for Harvey, he wouldn’t mind sitting back and watching the show unfold.

    It’d be good if he could deal with Waylon’s supporters and solve the problem once and for all.

    “Challenge?”

    “Take over the shop?”

    “Were you fighting with geomancy arts?”

    Waylon’s daughter Amaia crossed her arms, looking arrogant and righteous.

    “I…”

    Waylon choked; he knew Harvey was right.

    Harvey was already done with his curse removal. Waylon was already at a disadvantage.

    He stood up, gritting his teeth. He desperately held his body up while glaring at Harvey.

    “You were lucky you could remove my curse!”

    “But what’s with yours?”

    “I’ve already identified your curse! Why can’t I remove it?”

    “Your talisman could remove the curse I drew,” Harvey explained.

    “But you missed an important point: your curse and mine are very similar.”

    “While you deal with all those weird curses, there will be remnants. These remnants will form a Sickness Talisman.”

    “It won’t kill you, but with your skill, you won’t be able to deal with it.”

    Harvey looked at Waylon, whose eyes were twitching and expression was horrible.

    “Stop struggling. Give up already,” Harvey said, amused.

    “I see! I see now!”

    Waylon revealed a look of realization after thinking about the situation for a moment.

    He didn’t anticipate Harvey to set up another trap for when he removed the initial curse.

    Safe to say, Harvey was already a few steps ahead of him.

    Waylon gritted his teeth and glared at Harvey.

    “You haven’t won yet!”

    “According to the deal, you need to remove my curse too.”

    “However, the Sickness Talisman cannot be removed!”

    “So, this is a draw!”

    Harvey smiled.

    “How do you know I can’t remove it? All I need to do is slap you.”

    “You’re lying!”

    Waylon was boiling with anger. He refused to believe that the Sickness Talisman had a cure.

    Harvey wasted no time slapping his face a few times.

    Slap, slap!

    While swinging his palm around, he put a drop of blood on Waylon’s head in secret.

    Waylon’s entire body was sent flying; with one final slap from Harvey, he slammed into a table.

    “Aaagh!”

    Waylon coughed as he landed on the ground.

    Dark blood seeped out of his mouth. Though he was in a horrible state, the color had returned to his face.

    After a minute, Waylon was finally back to normal. His stomach wasn’t hurting anymore, but his face had become as swollen as a pig’s.

    Seeing that, the middle-aged man from before kneeled in front of Harvey, begging for help.

    Slap!

    Harvey sent the man flying as well; dark blood came out of his mouth as he flew in the air.

    Castiel and the others were shocked to see it.

    ‘This is incredible!’

    ‘This feels like a movie!’

    If they didn’t see it with their own eyes, they wouldn’t know how geomancy experts fought each other.

    It was even more impressive that Harvey could remove the curse with just a few slaps!
