The King Of Warriors novel (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 352

It didn't take long before Lizbeth was done cooking the pasta. She even whipped up two more dishes on the side, and Jared found himself getting hungry when he got a whiff of the food.

“For someone with average fighting skills, your cooking sure is amazing!” he complimented her after taking a few bites.

The look on Lizbeth's face turned cold instantly. “Who are you calling average? I'll have you know that I'm the best in my team when it comes to martial arts!”

“Right, sure... Of course, you're the best,” Jared mumbled. How is someone of her skill level able to become a champion? Heh... Anthony must've gone easy on her out of respect for Walter!

Lizbeth shot him a fierce glare before asking curiously, “Still, I'm surprised at how strong you are. Who did you learn your martial arts from?”

“Of course I'm strong! How would I have wiped out the Whitaker family if I wasn't strong? I am actually self-taught, but I am talented enough to pull it off!” Jared replied proudly.

“Pfft!” Lizbeth rolled her eyes at him as she didn't believe in his talent.

“Is it just me or do the people here in Summerbank not respect you investigators at all?” Jared asked.

His words hit Lizbeth where it hurt most, and the look on her face grew depressed as she explained, “Summerbank is famous for its practice of martial arts. You'll find martial arts schools and martial arts families everywhere. With that many martial arts families around, it's only natural that the number of conflicts would increase as well. The Department ofjustice can only do so much to maintain order around here. In fact, there are times when we can't even do anything about it. The martial arts families are all under the Warriors Alliance, and their conflicts are often resolved by said organization.”

Her reply piqued Jared's interest.

“Warriors Alliance? I didn't know such a thing exist here in Summerbank!”

Being an ordinary person, it was perfectly normal for Jared to not know about these things as he never had a chance to come across them.
