Julian had a cold expression as he stood in front of his men.
Right in front of him, one man stood still while crossing his arms and an unflinching poker face.
The man was Harvey.
Julian’s eyes flashed fearfully at the sight of Harvey’s face.
After all, this was the man who banished him straight to Hell.
If Marcel didn’t give the Sentries of York another chance, Julian probably wouldn’t get another opportunity to lead his troops again.
This was Julian’s chance to rise again.
If he accomplished the mission successfully, he believed he would have the right to take position as the lord of the family…
Even though the current situation had nothing to do with it.
Turning away from Harvey, Julian then set his gaze on the buildings not far away from him.
The buildings were extremely close to Harvey and the rest of the sentries; they were less than a mile away.
Since Harvey and the others climbed from the back of the mountain, the outer walls were completely useless against them.
Even the Shindan Way didn’t expect anyone to risk everything
and climb to the island from the cliff.
Or rather, their headquarters had never been attacked since the establishment of the Shindan Way hundreds of years ago.
Their blind confidence made them think nobody would possibly dare attack them.
That was why they didn’t even pay attention to the danger that was slipping right under their noses.
There were a lot less guards keeping watch here compared to the ones patrolling in front. Even the infrared lights were scanning the environment much more slowly than anticipated.
“You should know about our mission by now, Sir York.”
Julian took a deep breath and narrowed his eyes.
“We’re here to capture the previous leader of Misfortune, Rin.”
“According to our information, he was the cause of what happened ten years ago.”
“If we take him down, we’ll know exactly what happened ten years ago.”
Harvey glanced at Julian calmly before chuckling quietly.
“Are you stupid?”
“That’s your mission. Not mine.”
“I’m here to prevent Rin from dying because of Misfortune.”
“Simply put, I’m just a supervisor. Got it?”
“You’re the one doing all the work here.”
Julian’s eyes twitched frantically at Harvey’s words.
“So you think my house was involved with the incident ten years ago?” “Neither of us has the final say. We need solid proof,” Harvey replied, still calm.
“But if Rin does die in your hands, I’ll definitely suspect you for destroying evidence.”
“That’s why. If you have nothing to do with what happened, I suggest you keep Rin safe.”
“After all, I’m sure you have a chance to rise as well.”
Julian’s eyes lit up at that.
This was why he was willing to risk so much with the Sentries of York.
If he could prove that the third house had nothing to do with what happened ten years ago…
And if he could make a big contribution…
He would have a chance to rise to power!
