A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4940

Chapter 4940 True Darkness
“F*ck, what a rip-off.”

Jared couldn't help but curse when he heard the price.

The woman snorted coldly and glared at him like she was ready to bite his head off.

“He's just a kid and doesn't know any better. Don't take it personally...”

Eason quickly stepped in to apologize to the woman.

Then he pulled Jared aside and warned him in a low voice, “It is the nobody that is hard to get along with. Don't go picking fights with the staff. If they decide to make things difficult for you, you might not even make it out of the purgatory.”

“Understood...”

Jared nodded.

This so-called celestial realm didn't feel much different from the mundane world. Even a staff member like her had the same arrogant, condescending attitude, like someone owed her money.

“Go on in. Just be careful. If it feels like too much, don't try to tough it out. Get out immediately.”

Eason reminded Jared again, worried he might push himself too far.

“I know!” Jared said, then turned toward the staircase.

One hundred and eighty thousand steps stretched ahead, disappearing into the distance. Standing at the bottom, Jared felt as if he were about to walk into a road without end, cliffs plunging down on either side.

Seeing Jared begin the climb, Eason was about to leave, but after a moment of hesitation, he stayed put.

He figured if something really happened to Jared, he could help somehow by being there. If Jared got hurt or worse, and Catina came to the celestial realm looking for him, she might not even acknowledge Eason as her father anymore.

Jared climbed step by step. For someone like him, with a powerful physique and abundant strength, the staircase posed no real physical challenge.

The only thing required here was perseverance, and that was something Jared had in spades.
