A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 5048

“If there's danger, then we face it together. Even if we die, at least we'll have each other for company on the way to the afterlife,” Jemina said softly, smiling just a little.

Jared chuckled. “With me around, you're not dying.”

He wasn't worried. Deep down, Jared was calm. He knew full well he wouldn't die here. After all, if he died, the story would end.

“You don't like that pretty boy, huh?” Jared asked.

“Do I even need to say it?” Jemina rolled her eyes. “Just looking at him makes my stomach turn.”

“I don't have that kind of strength,” she said, shaking her head.

“When the time's right, I'll take care of that dainty clown. Then you'll be free,” Jared told her, walking beside her.

“You're no match for him,” Jemina replied.

“Your body can handle it. Forget just him, I could wipe out everyone here if I felt like it,” the Vermilion Demon Lord replied flatly.

“Good to hear!” Jared laughed.

“Who are you talking to?” Jemina asked, puzzled.

“An old friend,” Jared said with a chuckle.

Dead men don't get to enjoy the magical items.
