Winner Takes All novel Chapter 864

As soon as Jack’s words were uttered.

The atmosphere in the dining room became serious.

When Jack previously had the idea of going to Dragon Cavalry, everyone had already thought very clearly about the pros and cons of going there after discussing.

Jack was also clear about the pros and cons so when the idea popped up in his mind, he quickly dismissed the thought.

But, the battle three days ago made the current situation more dangerous and difficult.

Mysterious Man calmly said, “Going to Dragon Cavalry now is the only foolproof plan. Don’t forget that even your father has to temporarily sit tight in this Bloody Trap.”

This sentence made Jack’s eyebrows furrow tightly.

Mr. Ward’s expression changed and he said with a deep voice, “Senior, is there really a need to be like that?”

Being the trusted subordinate of Patrick and knowing clearly the enmity between Jack and Patrick who had a father-son relationship.

Mysterious Man’s such sentence was undoubtedly adding fuel to the fire and this made Mr. Ward find it distasteful.

“Going to Dragon Cavalry might also allow you to complete a metamorphosis.”

Mysterious Man directly ignored Mr. Ward and said calmly.

“What metamorphosis?” Jack asked.

Mysterious Man gently picked up a chopstick and casually knocked on the edge of the bowl. He smiled teasingly, “For example…using a knife to block a bullet?”

Jack froze for a moment and then he laughed.

“Since senior says so, going to Dragon Cavalry is indeed the best choice now. There are even additional benefits.”

“Young master…”

Mr. Ward had a complicated expression.

But before he finished his words, Jack raised his hand to interrupt him, “Stop saying, didn’t we discuss this matter before? With the current situation, going to Dragon Cavalry is the best protection. If I still stay here and rely on you guys, when there is another assassination like the one from Iga Clan, perhaps the outcome…”

Jack did not finish his words. It was just that when it came to the end of his sentence, his voice was obviously lowered and his face also darkened.

Amber, who was on the side, was having a complicated expression. She hesitated for a moment and said, “Can I go with you?”

Jack turned his head and gazed at Amber.

In the end, he shook his head, “My trip this time is to join the army so it isn’t appropriate for you to go with me. Also, I’m the source of the danger. If you follow me, you’ll be put in danger as well. I’ll let Mr. Ward and the others send you back to your parents’ place if it is necessary to do so.”

His tone was firm and Amber was totally not allowed to refute.

Jack raised his hand and rubbed his face. He could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. His face showed a painful look.

After he calmed down, he slowly said, “Help me to arrange it, Mr. Ward, I’ll go to Northern Territory tomorrow morning. As for Zenith’s side, I’ll personally contact him.”

“Yes.”

Mr. Ward nodded and answered.

The dinner ended hurriedly.

Jack returned to his bedroom alone and contacted Zenith. Zenith immediately agreed to his request of going to Dragon Cavalry without hesitation.

After hanging up the phone.

Jack sat in front of the window. Through the window screen, he could vaguely see the blurry moon hanging high in the night sky. His lips curled and he revealed a meaningful smile.

Whereas, outside Bamboo Grove.

Mysterious Man and Mr. Ward were sitting opposite each other.

Mr. Ward was having a complicated expression but Mysterious Man looked unusually calm.

After a long while.

Mr. Ward smiled with emotion, “The battle three days ago has discouraged the killers from various major forces. It’s rare that we can have a few days with peace.”

“They must be discouraged. Seeing Jack’s state that night, not to mention those killers, aren’t you and I also scared and appalled?”

Mysterious Man twitched his lips, “Those killers come here to kill Jack, not to be abused and murdered by Jack. The tragic state of the three Ninja lords should be enough to calm them down for quite a while.”

Mr. Ward nodded and gazed at Mysterious Man, “In fact, I admire you very much. You surprisingly can pull the young master back from the state of madness to normal by relying on your own strength. For such great kindness, I thank you on behalf of the young master.”

“Just a word of thanks? You don’t have any real and useful thing for me?” Mysterious Man’s left index finger gently traced the rim of the teacup in front of him. He smiled teasingly.

Mr. Ward was stunned. He asked, “What do you want then? You can just say directly, senior.”

In terms of age, Mr. Ward was certainly older than Mysterious Man.

But, the honorific title, senior at this time was determined based on the strength level.

Mysterious Man’s left hand gently scratched the rim of the teacup. He was seemingly hesitating and also seemingly pondering.

After a long time, he smiled, “For example…your life?”
