Chapter 6125
Amos was getting desperate at this point.
From this point onward…
There was simply no need to hide anything.
There was no point.
Since Harvey had already made everything clear, he had to fight back in the name of his position.
“Of course, you should just stop pretending if you wouldn’t dare. I am the Smalt Sect’s young master; an outsider like you …”
Amos trailed off.
Slap!
Before he was done talking, he was already slapped in the face.
“Are you lecturing me right now?” Having said that, Harvey wiped his fingers.
He left with Stefan and the others soon after.
Everyone had revealed their true intentions.
Still, there was no point in killing off Amos here.
What Harvey needed was Stefan’s rise to power. That way, he’d be able to take full control of the situation.
The Smalt Sect’s ceremony was a great opportunity to make that happen.
***
“What?! Harvey completely disrespected Naruse?!
“He even threatened Amos to give up on his position and the Eyed Beads?!
“Does that mean that he has the other two?”
Inside a meeting room of the Border Force, an ordinary- looking man was playing with a mask that had an emblem of a lamb.
It was one of the heads of the Twelve Earthly Branches- Roue!
Roue had a curious look on his face.
The person in front of him was none other than a commander of the Border Force who had never shown her face in public, Hannah Jean.
As soon as Roue put her phone down, Hannah said, “What happened?”
Roue let out a sigh.
“Looks like we both miscalculated.
“We thought that Harvey wouldn’t get himself involved…
“Not only did he do just that, but he even took control of the entire situation.
“Amos suffered huge losses, and the Islanders were completely disrespected as well.
“I’m afraid there’ll be big changes happening to the Smalt Sect soon enough.”
Roue slowly went through the information he got with Hannah; a hint of rage could be seen in his eyes.
According to Evermore’s plan, the Nine Eyed Beads were supposed to be gathered after Amos’s rise to power. That way, they’d be able to take the beads with ease.
Because of what happened in the outskirts, they mobilized a lot of forces from America and the Island Nations.
There were already four Gods of War that were used.
And yet, they still lost completely.
Roue, who had been reaping the rewards while hiding away, could barely hide the rage in his eyes at this point.
“Is the Smalt Sect holding a ceremony three days later?” Hannah sipped her coffee, showing an odd gaze.
“Amos isn’t rash; doesn’t he know that there’ll be no turning back if that actually happens?
“After all, according to traditions, the Smalt Sect would use all of the Eyed Beads for a ritual.
“When that happens, he won’t be able to hide his intentions even if he wants to.”
“He has no choice at this point…” Roue replied calmly.
