The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 2029

At that moment, Jared and his group stood out like a sore thumb because they were the only ones who weren't kneeling.

When Hiroichi turned to the awkward-looking group of people and saw Ryosuke, his expression shifted instantly. Why is Ryosuke here? Did Mieko fail her mission?

Despite noticing them, he didn't do anything because he had to ensure that the ritual concluded without issues.

He would be committing a great sin if he questioned or caused a ruckus with Ryosuke.

“What kind of f*cking deity is this?” Flaxseed cursed upon seeing the sculpture.

That caused plenty of worshippers to face him.

Hastily, Ryosuke explained, “Mr. Flaxseed, that's the statue of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the Martial Arts God from a few hundred years ago. He's the deity that Thousand Crane Shrine worships!”

“D*mn! Really? Only a few hundred years ago? He doesn't deserve to be called a deity,” Flaxseed sneered.

Even though he didn't speak loudly, everyone could hear him clearly.

Promptly, the worshippers glared at him with unbridled fury.

Hiroichi narrowed his eyes, which were overflowing with murderous intent. They're clearly causing a commotion here!

However, Flaxseed didn't mind the attention because his group was there to look for trouble anyway.

Smiling awkwardly, Ryosuke said, “I know a few hundred years isn't as impressive compared to Chanaea's culture that spanned thousands of years, but...” If Mr. Flaxseed utters even one more word, those murderous worshippers won't hesitate to attack us!

Even Hiroichi almost couldn't hold himself back anymore.

Still, he suppressed his anger. He had no choice because the ritual was too crucial to Thousand Crane Shrine.

Out of nowhere, a voice belonging to an ancient being traveled into his ears. “Bring them inside.”

Being reprimanded as such by Hiroichi genuinely frightened him.

“I'm the one who wants us to come here so I can meet your deity. If you have any issues, bring them up with me,” stated Jared as his aura exploded from his body, which swiftly suppressed Hiroichi's.

“You?” It took a second for Hiroichi to recall who Jared was. “You're the one who killed Kawano? Jared Chance?”

“That's right. You can add one more person to your list of dead subordinates because I also killed Maki.” Jared smiled.

“What? You killed Maki? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!” Hiroichi refused to believe him.

“What's so impossible about that? Both Maki and Mieko are dead. Did you not wonder what happened to them when they didn't show up?” Jared mocked.

That enraged Hiroichi, causing murderous intent to swell around him.
