A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 497

Chapter 497 The Heavens Smile Upon Us

Jared’s zen-ness came across as a massive slight in the view of the Fergusons’ Grandmaster. With both fists extended, the Grandmaster’s intimidating aura increased in intensity several-fold and shrouded Jared outright, as though he meant to crush the latter with it.

“Too weak…” Jared shook his head in disapproval.

In the next split second, Jared transformed himself into the epicenter of a massive eruption of energy that mushroomed out in all directions with a simple tap of his right foot. That Grandmaster’s expression fell when he suddenly felt himself being assailed by this overwhelming tsunami of energy.

The Fergusons’ Grandmaster tried to evade but to no avail. Sent flying like an untethered kite by this uncanny force, he then fell heavily to the ground, motionless!

Without having exchanged even one blow, a fighter of the Grandmaster’s caliber was struck dead, just like that. That instantly got Isaiah in a rightfully severe mood and even put a frown upon Bruce’s brow!

“Fantastic. Simply marvelous…”

Upon witnessing this, Jayden exclaimed in sheer delight. Never had he ever expected that Jared would possess such potency.

“Why have you kept such a formidable fighter hidden if you had him within your ranks all this while?” Christopher asked Jayden.

The latter had a look of embarrassment about him for he did not know how to answer that. This was because he had no idea Jared was that capable, to begin with.

“You ought to be convinced that Jared was the one who saved me by now, right, Dad? He caught the bullet that went off last night. It would have come straight at me otherwise!”

When Tessa related to Jayden the events from the night before, Jayden’s look was that of startlement followed by a gnawing sense of dread. Would she not have been struck by the bullet had Jared not been beside her?

“Blessed with Mr. Chance’s presence, the heavens smile upon the Snyders. Hahaha…” Jayden laughed haughtily.

“What? Might you be adept in both the arcane and martial arts as well?” asked Bruce in astonishment.

“Do not be taken in by his tomfoolery, Mr. Mikkelson. How could one who’s as wet behind the ears as he possibly knows that much?” reminded Isaiah from the side.

That seemed to make a certain sense to Bruce. Hence, with both hands in front of him, he weaved out layers upon layers of white fog until it had Jared completely surrounded!

As the fog spread, so did its thickness amplify. Soon, Jared and the Grandmaster himself became enveloped within, visually cut off from everyone from the outside.

“This is not good…”

Jayden was taken aback at this development because he was aware of Bruce’s elite mastery of magecraft. How is Jared to battle an opponent that he cannot even see?
