“You are either with me or against me.” Many gasped sharply at Gareth’s ugly statement. They started to make faces too. It had become clear to them that the event tonight was not just a step designed for Kaze. The feast was also a trap set for the most respected individuals in Lilyrose.Gareth demanded that they pick a side to determine whether they were a friend or foe. To Gareth, there was no in-between. If they were not with him, they would be against him. The gray area did not exist. However, not everyone was conflicted. “I support you, Mr. Hornberg.” Trent took a stand without hesitation. “To be frank, I am disheartened by the way the noob mayor runs the city. It’s a mess!“The young man won’t take advice from a retired man like me. Kaze even humiliated me. “I trust that you will contribute greatly to the Lilyrose New City project, Mr. Hornberg. Please get rid of pests like Kaze and build a figure for the city,” Trent said righteously. Gareth’s eyes sp

Many grimaced at Jack’s comment. Hudson made the local players pick a team when he came to Lilyrose. The Bowmans, an upper-class family, were the first to take a stand. The head of the Bowman household, Blake, pledged allegiance to Hudson right away and took Johnson’s place as the mayor. Kaze was forced to confess a crime he did not commit. Blake’s son nearly pushed Darcy to jump off a building. As Blake pissed Kaze off, he was only mayor for a day. Since then, the Bowmans plummeted the ranks of social classes and hovered in the bottom tier. With that in mind, some locals started to have a change of heart. They were afraid Kaze might turn the tide and ruin their families too. Still, others sneered at that thought. “Don’t try to scare us with the past, Mr. Joestar. Kaze was driven to desperation to the point of giving Governor Farland gifts. “Governor Farland was enraged and followed the clues to Blake for taking gifts and bribes. Since the Bowmans were the bigger fi

Guests shuffled out of the Lyfes’ reception area. All that remained were Gareth, his disciples, and the shivering Lyfes. Stress hung the heaviest over their heads. For some reason, Gareth got angry and directed his resentment on the Lyfes. “Come here.” Gareth took a seat at the head of the table and started eating. The spread prepared by the Lyfes was left untouched. “Thump!” Mary Sue, Syed, and the others drew close and kneeled before Gareth. Gareth signaled his student to fill his glass with alcohol before glancing at Mary Sue. He asked indifferently, “Have you figured out what the problem was?” “I have, G-Grandmaster Hornberg. “I shouldn’t have pitted you against Kaze and taken it upon myself to drug Stone into a coma. “It’s all my fault. I deserve to die,” Mary Sue replied tremblingly. She used the time to ponder about the reason behind Gareth’s fury. Mary Sue hung her head low. Gareth scoffed. “You sure are loyal to your master, bitch.” It was clear

“Who are you people?” Bernard’s driver yelled sternlyBernard’s, Peter’s, and Jack’s bodyguards got out of the cars immediately. They were on standby outside the Lyfes’ residence, so they did not recognize Mary Sue. “Who are we? We are here to finish you off.” Mary Sue, the leader, sneered. Her head was wrapped in a bandage. She was backed by a dozen of Gareth’s disciples and two quiet men. “Let’s just get straight to it. Take them!” At the wave of Mary Sue’s arm, six individuals lunged toward the family heads’ drivers and bodyguards. Even at one-against-one, the drivers and bodyguards were overpowered by Gareth’s minions.The drivers and bodyguards howled in pain as they were knocked down, their legs crippled by the relentless assault.“Tap, tap.” Mary Sue approached Bernard’s car and knocked on the window. She said gleefully, “What? Don’t you recognize me anymore? “Get out of the car. It’s pointless to hide in there.” Soon, Bernard stepped out of the car with

“The orthopedic hospital,” Conan replied. As Bernard, Peter, Jack, and the security officers suffered bone fractures, they were sent to the orthopedic hospital.It was the best place to treat broken bones because Rowan, the hospital director, was a student of Sam. Kaze nodded. “Come on. Let’s check it out.” “Are you heading to the hospital? I can visit them on your behalf.” Conan persuaded, “Word has been going around that Gareth hasn’t assaulted you because you have been taking cover in Skylar View District. Gareth’s men could not barge into a military-protected area.“Sven and Wolf might come after you if you leave the area.” Conan knew Kaze was strong. Kaze sorted out the three titans without a hitch. However, word on the street that the three titans were not on Sven and Wolf’s level. Sven and Wolf ruled the underground boxing, and at least a dozen illegal fighters died at their hands. Kaze smiled indifferently. “Well, I’ll make sure they don’t have a chance to fi
