When Cloud saw Jared slaying the zombies, he wanted to help but was stopped by the latter. Since he was incapable of absorbing marked aura, his killing them would be a waste.
Hence, he had no choice but to watch Jared anxiously. In contrast to Cloud, Remus and Xandros were watching on smugly.
“Mr. Quayle, I didn’t expect you to be so powerful. Why don’t you raise more of the dead and overwhelm Jared with them?” Xandros suggested in glee.
Nodding with a smile, Remus chanted a spell while brandishing his soul attractor in the air. Countless corpses began to rise from the dead and swarm toward Jared.
Soon, almost all of them had come alive. Despite that, Jared continued to cut them down vehemently with Dragonslayer Sword, showing no signs of tiring. The sight triggered a frown from Remus as cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He continued to use his soul attractor, draining a significant amount of his marked aura. Yet, Jared was still more than capable of resisting. When Jared noticed that Remus was slowing down and seemingly unable to sustain his spell much longer, he screamed, “Argh!”
Thereafter, he pretended to be struck by a zombie and was sent flying backward.
“Mr. Chance!”
The sight caused Cloud to rush over and frantically help Jared up.
“Are you all right, Mr. Chance?” Cloud asked as he examined Jared for injuries.Jared merely smiled in response. “I’m fine. It’s just a charade. You should pretend that I’m badly injured.”
The stunned Cloud had no clue what Jared was trying to achieve but did as he was told.
Xandros hurried to Remus’ side to help him up. The latter was panting heavily as though he had just gone through a brutal battle.
“Mr. Quayle, you have to continue. It’s clear Jared can’t sustain this any longer,”
Xandros pestered. However, Remus waved his hand. “Mr. Xandros, I’ve given it everything I have. This guy has looked that way for a long time, but he just refuses to fall.”
The sight of Remus reaching his limit elicited a smirk on Jared’s face. Unleashing his aura without warning, he raised Dragonslayer Sword and slayed the rest of the corpses. Jared’s sudden explosion of aura left Remus and Xandros stunned.
Once he had wiped out the last of the corpses, Jared approached the two with a smirk. “You… actually still have strength left?” Remus exclaimed in shock.

Josephine's first time seeing Jared kill isn't with Leyton but with Falcon. Pay attention to your work....
You need to correct yourself,dear author. Josephine was in the City of Herbs when she was a kid, so why is the city's smell surprising to her?...
I need more chapters...
When can I get the next chapter...
