Chapter 5200
“But as soon as I discovered the leader was involved with Quill Gibson’s death, I immediately lost interest in the mental cultivation technique.
“I knew the person he’s going after —you’re more important than some mere technique!
“That was why I reported you to my foster father as soon as possible.
“He gave you three benefits, hoping you’d accept the Way of Water’s hospitality.”
Alani Carlson smiled faintly when she loosened her yukata to tell Harvey York he could have anything.
Harvey seemed not to care when seeing the beautiful sight before him.
“Are all Islanders philanthropists or something?
“You’ve given up on the mental cultivation technique, and you’re giving me so many benefits?
“Am I seeing the world with rose-colored glasses? Or are you people just too nice?”
“There are some things that don’t need more context, Sir York,” replied Alani with a smile.
“Since we’re giving up on the technique, of course, we’d be asking for something else…”
“Speak English,” replied Harvey.
“Our friendship would hold more importance than just some mere technique…”
“Explain.”
“It’d be easier to raise thousands of loyal men than to find an outstanding one.”
“Enough!
Harvey pointed at the door.
“If you keep prattling like this, you must leave.
“If not, I’m calling someone to kick you out.
“I believe you’d like the Gibson family to see you like this.”
Alani froze and then looked horrified.
She looked deeply into Harvey’s eyes before letting out a sigh.
“You really are unromantic, Sir York.
“Are you really going to make everything so bare and barren?”
Harvey scoffed and then casually took a sip of his tea.
Alani sighed before sitting upright, regaining her usual unapproachable attitude.
“The Way of Water gives you so many benefits. You’ll have money, authority, and women…
“In exchange, we’d want you to help the Way of Water three times whenever we need!
“Unconditionally, of course!
“Don’t worry though! We won’t force you to go against your morals or disobey laws!
“Do you understand what I’m saying?”
“You want me to help the Way of Water three times?
“And then keep me on your side since I couldn’t break off from you people?
“I’d become a traitor to my own country if that’s the case.
“Is that what you want?”
Alani showed a beautiful smile.
“You can think of it like that, sure.
“But as a member of the World Civilization Department, I think we shouldn’t be that narrow-minded!
“The entire world is a big family!
“The Island Nations’ true goal is to unite the world!
“When that happens, you’ll be one of the biggest contributors !
“You also wouldn’t be branded a traitor!
“I believe that with your support, that day will arrive soon…”
Alani let out a chuckle.
