A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 3961

“This disciple of mine, whom I took under my wing in Imperial Fox City, turned out to be incredibly talented,” Dario exclaimed before hastily departing.

He was merely there to handle matters in exchange for money and had no idea Jared was this formidable.

However, being too outstanding wasn’t always a good thing, as the tallest tree often catches the wind. Jared’s exceptional abilities could attract unwanted attention.

Meanwhile, at Dario’s mansion, Jared was surrounded by Judd, Carla, and others, who were treating him like a hero.

“Hey, you’re truly impressive! As your senior, I feel humbled in your presence,” Judd admitted. “These are the spirit coins we won from Thiago. Check and see if the amount is correct,” he added, placing two large bags of spirit coins before Jared.

These coins were part of the wager that Thiago had lost to Jared.

Jared didn’t even glance at the bags. He simply took one bag of spirit coins for himself and handed the other to Judd. “Judd, please distribute these spirit coins among our fellow apprentices. They were all worried about me during the spar.”

The bag contained over a hundred spirit coins. It was a generous sum that would be significant even for a larger sect.

Judd accepted the coins with trembling hands, nodding. “All right, I’ll distribute them right away!”

The other fellow apprentices were visibly thrilled, showering Jared with praises.

Some were even ready to bow to Jared. Many of them were disciples of the outer circle, holding lowly positions, and had never seen so many spirit coins before.

It was like going from rags to riches overnight.

Jared’s gesture was strategic, aimed at winning hearts and ensuring he could navigate Violet Flame Sect with ease.

“You’re the first man I’ve seen who’s both powerful and generous, yet still humble. You don’t know how worried I was during the sparring. I thought you might not make it,” Carla said, holding Jared’s hand with apparent concern.

“That’s right! We’ll have your back from now on,” everyone chimed in in unison.

“Thank you!” Jared smiled, pleased with their unified support.

“You probably don’t have a place to stay yet. Mr. Barclay’s mansion is full of his disciples, so there might not be any empty rooms. If you don’t mind, you can stay at my place. My master is currently detained, so I’m in charge of the entire mansion. Plus, we could have some heart-to-heart talks anytime…” Carla’s offer was a blatant invitation extended to Jared to stay with her, but none of the others mocked her for it.

Given a man like Jared, they would have done the same if they were in her shoes.

“Carla, I can vacate my room for him. There’s no need to trouble you,” Judd interjected. “Besides, our master will likely return soon and will want to speak with him. It wouldn’t be convenient for him to stay at your place.”

This was Judd’s attempt to stop Jared from moving in with Carla.
