Chapter 5973
“Welt York?”
Amos Augustus briefly pondered about the situation before finally recalling the small fry.
“The outer disciple?
“Didn’t he suffer losses against Harvey multiple times already?
“Why would he make another move?”
Elaine Garcia merely smiled.
“You gave him courage, Young Master Amos.
“If it weren’t for your appearance…
“He wouldn’t dare to go against Harvey York at all.
“Then again, despite Welt’s idiocy…
“There’s a benefit.
“Neil Osborne is now going up against Harvey.
“This is in our favor.
“This is why I didn’t stop him after hearing about it.”
Elaine leaned on the handrail with a smile.
“Welt’s a little too impulsive…
“But we can make use of him.
“Just let him do the underhanded tricks.
“When we’re done with him, we’ll just make him disappear.”
“You people are too rash,” replied Amos.
“Just let Harvey make connections with Neil if he wants to.
“We shouldn’t be the ones getting worried anyway.”
Elaine paused.
“But, Xyla’s suffered so much because of him.
“He forced us to give up some of the benefits as well.
“Aenar Temple also intends to separate itself from you.
“Every single one of these problems stems from him!
“If we underestimate him and not make a move…
“He might just ruin the plan we’ve devised for over a thousand years!”
“You keep forgetting about the bigger picture.
Amos squinted.
“Harvey and Neil getting close to each other would ignite a fuse, alerting Evermore and the Border Force. We can even drag the Osborne family down with this.
“Get those people to cause trouble.
“It’d be more exciting that way.
“Jumping on the situation immediately made Harvey and Neil go their separate ways…
“But Harvey isn’t an idiot either.
“A man who managed to make the Smalt Sect suffer constantly would surely be able to find out who got Abner act, right?
“We’d be blatantly opposing Harvey.
“That said, I have no intention of killing him off immediately.
“Someone like him is considered a double-edged sword. We can use him to hurt our opposition, but we’d also get hurt if we misuse him.
“I was planning to point him toward our enemies too…
Amos seemed bitter.
“The plan’s down the drain at this point.
“Even if we continue with the plan…
“I won’t be able to get everything I want out of it!”
Elaine remained silent for quite some time.
“I caused this to happen, Young Master Amos.
“I was too reckless.
“Please, punish me for my mistake! It’s all my fault!”
Amos shook his head.
“What’s the point?
“Do you think we can change the situation if I really punish you?
“If not, then why should I even do that in the first place?
“I’m telling you this as a reminder that we’re in the common world right now.
“We need to use our heads for things.”
