Chapter 5784
Miley Surrey heaved a sigh.
“Lennon wanted that at first, but Harvey refused.
“He’s probably trained so hard he forgot he had a brain!
“He previously fought you for the One-Eyed Bead, and now he’s refusing to get the beads right before him!”
“You oversimplify things.”
“Harvey knows he’d be everyone’s target if he acquires those beads.
“After all, him having the One-Eyed Bead is already public knowledge.
“If he gets another three, then he’d have collected half of the Nine- Eyed Beads.
“He’d be the one who gets the most attention that way.
“Since a huge battle is about to occur, being everyone’s target surely isn’t the wisest choice.”
Miley paused.
“That bastard!
“I thought he was brainless, but I sure underestimated him.”
“Not quite. You’re simply still in denial after suffering losses against him.
Stefan stood up before slowly playing with his string of ivory- carved beads.
“At this point, I’ve confirmed that his identity is most likely fake.
“As for who he actually is, more investigation needs to be done.
“But he must have immense power to make a fake identity this convincing.
“The power is most likely on par with the five hidden families, the top ten families, the sacred martial arts training grounds, and the four cornerstones of the country.
“Someone like that will definitely be tough to handle.
“Look at how he does things in the outskirts. Sometimes, he crushes his opponents with pure strength and pressures others with authority while also playing around the law…
“He doesn’t seem to care about anyone in the outskirts if he’s being this casual.
“He doesn’t even bat me an eye.
“He thinks even if we get the three beads from the Surrey family…
“We wouldn’t be able to keep it for long.
“I’m curious. What kind of person is he for him to be this confident?”
Miley hesitated in deep thought after hearing Stefan’s high praise toward Harvey.
“Don’t be angry for losing against him. Don’t belittle yourself either.
“Calming down would be good for you.
“I already kneeled in front of him. I’m still standing here right now, aren’t I?”
Stefan casually spoke as if kneeling before Harvey was not such a big deal.
Miley froze.
“Are you planning to take all the humiliation out on him later, Mr. Stefan?”
“It’s not that. I figured this guy was tough to deal with from the very beginning.
Stefan sighed.
“I only acted humble in front of him, then let the Klein family take action…
“So that he thinks I’m easily angered. Maybe we can use that to our advantage.
“That said, I didn’t expect to become a pawn myself…
“The hunter has become the hunted…
“How troublesome.”
