The Man's Decree novel Chapter 1409

Chapter 1409 Powerful Enemy

Meanwhile, Ryker returned to the residence looking all gloomy and brooding. The outcome of Jared’s battle with Diego made him worry.

Edgar noticed the mood his father was in, so he asked, “What’s wrong, Dad?”

Raising his head, Ryker looked at his son. Edgar was healed for the most part, and his muscles were growing back. “Edgar, Mr. Sanders himself demands that Jared take part in the Trial this time,” he informed.

The news excited Edgar. “That’s great, then! I can use the Trial as a pretext to kill Jared and absorb his power.”

“Don’t underestimate his power, Edgar. His strength has improved a lot more than I thought. Even Zion lost an arm to him. Remember Diego? The one who has gone missing for decades? He fought Jared today, and I saw with my own eyes how Jared destroyed him. It was horrifying! If he does join the Trial, I’m afraid you would be no match for him,” Ryker stated honestly.

Upon hearing that, Edgar finally started getting solemn as well. He never thought Jared could grow this powerful in such a short time. However, a moment later, he spoke up. “Dad, we’re the hosts of this Trial, so we can control who the participants are. I say we do this…”

Edgar huddled closer and whispered his plan into Ryker’s ear. The old man’s face lit up, and he nodded. “Okay. I’ll make the arrangements. He’s strong, but there’s no way he can fight off everyone alone.”

With that, Ryker got up and left, while Edgar’s eyes lit up with bloodlust. “I’ll make your life a living hell this time, Jared.”

On the flip side, Zion scrambled back all the way to the Warriors Alliance in Jadeborough. He was huffing and puffing, but his heart was filled with rage.
