The man's scream alone was enough to convey his agony.
Yuri's and Ryosuke's expressions changed as their hearts trembled.
They watched Jared standing beside the man calmly as though he had nothing to do with his victim.
“You have some nerve, Ryosuke! You knew he was my subordinate, yet you still watch as he gets attacked!” a feminine voice shouted.
Ryosuke felt a jolt in his heart because he recognized the voice. Mieko!
However, he only heard her voice and could not see her figure.
Suddenly, the guards of the Watanabe family dropped dead with long gashes on their necks.
Ryosuke panicked. He knew she was close based on her voice, but he couldn't see her at all.
The inexplicable deaths of his subordinates only add to his distress.
“Trying to act mysterious, eh? Hmph!” Jared waved his hand.
Slap!
Abruptly, at a spot not too far away from Ryosuke, Mieko appeared, pressing one of her hands on her swelling cheek and staring at Jared with fury. “So, you're Jared Chance. I can tell you're skilled. No wonder you managed to kill Kawano in a single strike.”
Murderous intent swirled in her eyes.
“I can do the same to you.” Slowly, Jared stood up.
He was filled with boundless confidence at that moment because he had become a Martial Arts Saint.
Upon sensing Jared's murderous intent, Mieko reflexively took two steps backward.
