The Man's Decree novel Chapter 1740

Kazuo was blinded by greed. “Young man, you have a lot of treasures, huh?” He leaped into the sky, wielding his katana to paint a lotus in the air. The lotus increased in size and covered Jared completely.

Kazuo dared not go against Jared as he was afraid of destroying Jared’s Dragonslayer Sword. A sword with spirit was truly priceless. Jared sensed something coming at him and stuck his hand back instinctively to retaliate. A light emerged from his sword..

However, the light merely penetrated the lotus and didn’t cause any damage. Soon, Jared was engulfed completely by the lotus.

“Ha! Run if you can,” Kazuo mocked when he realized Jared was unable to escape, Jared ignored his mocking comment and held his Dragonslayer Sword silently. A grey light emerged from the sword.

He swung his sword at the lotus with all his might. Despite successfully penetrating the lotus, it remained unscathed.

Jared furrowed his brows. He was perplexed by the mysterious lotus that held him captive and why his sword seemed to have no effect on it.

Kazuo guffawed out loud. “Ha! Stop wasting your efforts. The lotus is not real, so no matter how strong you are, you can’t break free of it.”

He strode to Jared and glared at him icily. “If you give me the beast core and the magic sword, I might consider sparing your life.” Jared stared at Kazuo intently. “Are you serious?”

“Of course. I am a man of my word. If you give me those things as requested, I promise to spare your life,” Kazuo promised.
