Harvey York's Rise to Power

"You're supposed to be a part of the Smalt Sect, Mr. Stefan...

The expert smiled with an indescribable coldness.

"I'm ordered to send you to the afterlife.

"Are you prepared?" The chilly tone was enough to make Stefan Augustus' body freeze stiff.

After taking a deep breath, Stefan finally composed himself when he squinted at the man before him.

"You must be a grandmaster at least on par with a Sword Saint, right? "Based on Amos' abilities, he probably doesn't have the means to send you here.

"So, who is it that's trying to killhere? "The person supporting Amos?" Stefan was abnormally calm in the face of death. He gave a weird stare when looking into the expert's eyes.

"It doesn't matter who you are. Since I'm sure Amos didn't send you...

"All I need to do is to send word about the situation.

"You won't get your way even if you're trying to use my death as an example.

"Why don't we take a step back? It'll be good for both of US. Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"I'll double the money you get for this job. How does that sound?" The expert smiled.

"I didn't believe you people were such smooth talkers at first...

"But, I do now! "If I were actually hired, I would've already taken the bait." Stefan frowned.

"Since you're not hired, then you must be from an even stronger force.

"If I figure out who's behind you, not only would your actions today not have any meaning, but your support would also be in deep trouble! "Letguess. You must be here for the Nine-Eyed Beads.

"That means you're from Evermore..." The expert chuckled after hearing Stefan's determined words.

"You're smart, but smart men usually don't live long.

"I might've only crippled you if you didn't say anything. I would've left you alive to see if you're still useful. "But now that you revealed everything, I simply have no choice but to kill you!" Stefan let out a sigh.

"No need to swayat this point.

"You wouldn't have keptalive even if I kept my mouth shut.

"I might as well use my last sliver of hope to fight! Maybe I'll actually win that way!" Stefan brought out an old box with the refreshing scent of a Honey Pill before quickly swallowing it whole.

Stefan's aura rose exponentially when he finally broke through the barriers of his training. His fighting spirit was extraordinary at this point.

He would have unspeakable consequences to raise his combat strength through outside means...

But none of that would matter if he simply died here.

The expert scoffed.

"You're just a nobody. There's simply no hope for you.

"In my eyes...

"You're just delaying the inevitable." Naturally, Stefan and the Demon Monk behind him were definitely inferior to the expert.
