A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 2012

Chapter 2012 Impossible To Escape

Ryosuke hardly flinched as he roared, “Hold your swords. I'm still the head of the Watanabe family. Now, back off.”

The imposing command immediately stopped the charging guards in their tracks.

At the end of the day, they were in the service of the Watanabe family. They dared not disobey the instructions of the active family head.

“Charge! I'm ordering you to!” Asuka shouted at the guards, who remained frozen in fear despite his command.

Jetroinians were well-known for their strict deference to the traditional hierarchical system. While Ryosuke remained the head of the Watanabe family, the guards simply could not bring themselves to disobey his direct orders.

Seeing this, Asuka cursed at the top of his lungs, but his infuriated protests were in vain.

Meanwhile, Jared shot Asuka a frosty glare while slowly approaching him. “You're dead meat today, Asuka.”

Asuka hastily pulled Haruto with him and backed away until they eventually hid in his room.

Bam!

Suddenly, a loud explosion erupted in front of Jared, shrouding the place in billowing white smoke.

Jared waved his hand and instantly dissipated the smoke, but Asuka and Haruto were nowhere to be found.

“Damn it. They must've escaped using a secret tunnel under the mansion,” surmised Ryosuke with a deep frown.

“What?" Masato immediately got to his feet.

A chorus of shocked gasps rang out through the hut. They could not believe Ryosuke was completely disregarding his family ties and openly hunting his younger brother down.

One of the branch family members asked Asuka, “Who is this Jared Chance?”

“He's the person who killed my son, Ichiro. I heard he's an extremely strong fighter.”

Asuka's explanation fueled Masato's anger. The elder thundered, “A Chanaean? It seems Ryosuke is bent on pledging his loyalty to another country.”

Just then, Kawano, who had appeared to be in a light slumber the whole time, slowly opened his eyes and said, "Whoever he is, as long as he's bold enough to cause trouble here, the only fate that awaits him is death.”

As he spoke, Kawano rose to his feet and grabbed a katana, shooting a piercing look out the window.

One of the powerful members of the Watanabe family spoke up. “With Master Kawano around, do you think Ryosuke would really be brave enough to chase us down?” “Let's go. Accompany me while I meet and kill this Watanabe
