Chapter 94: {Bonus Chapter} A Sense of Danger
Additionally, to make matters worse, he had actually claimed that they were not supposed to kill the other party. It was clear that he was asking them to hold back, making sure that the other party did not suffer grievous injuries.
But looking at the current situation, who was the one that was supposed to be holding back? According to the capability of the other party, it was clear that he was the one that was supposed to be holding back while dealing with them.
Still, despite feeling reluctant, they had no choice but to take action. After all, if they did not take action, Lucas would definitely target them. And if they were reported back to the family that they had not taken seriously their responsibilities, the punishment was something that they would never like to experience.
One of the most just beginning to put Scarlet onto the ground when the other one suddenly spoke up. He looked at Lucas and said nervously, "Young master, what about these ladies? We can use them…"
The man wanted to suggest that they could use the two ladies that they were currently holding as hostages in order to make Jaden do as they wanted. But before the man could even complete what he was saying, he was rudely interrupted by Lucas.
"Who cares about the ladies? I had previously just wanted to enjoy myself. But now, there is something more important here. Can't you use your stupid brain to judge the situation here? Hurry up and f*cking deal with this brat in front of me." Lucas shouted in anger.
He could not believe at how stupid his bodyguards were. In this situation, the enemy was in front of them, and they were still thinking of the girls that they were holding? Did a donkey kick their heads?
Right now, he had even forgotten about the plans that he was having about the ladies. The only thing in his mind at the moment was how to get the information and the device from Jaden.
The bodyguard immediately swallowed his words. Since the young master was not willing to listen to him, there was nothing but he could do anyway.
So, the two of them immediately put down the two ladies, something that made Jaden relieved. Previously, after dealing with the three, he had not rushed forward, with the fear that Scarlet and the other lady might be hurt.
But now, it seemed that there was a brainless idiot on the other side. Since they had already put down Scarlet and the other lady, the two of them were already rushing towards him.
With relief in his heart, Jaden immediately took a step forward. Just like the other three, Jaden was able to deal with them in just a matter of about 1 minute.
It was true that this group of people possessed incredible capabilities. In normal situations, he was supposed to be struggling while fighting the five of them. But, there was one thing that he had realized.
That was the fact that after receiving a reward from the system that improved his combat capabilities, it was not the end of it. The skills that he had displayed so far were not the maximum limit of the intermediate level combat skills.
During the past few days, as he got more adapted to the information in his mind, he got even more proficient in using the skills that he possessed. And so, he was able to exploit the weaknesses that the other party possessed.
Additionally, generally, he was stronger than all of them in a 1 vs 1 fight. It was simply because the five of them were not coordinating with each other, and were attacking as individuals that he was capable of dealing with them at the same time.
Otherwise, even with the skills that he possessed, it would have been difficult for him to be able to deal with three of them at the same time, not to mention if the five of them actually attacked at the same time.
Having already dealt with the five of them, Jaden finally looked at Lucas. He approached him with a cold expression on his face. At this moment, he was already beginning to think of ways that he was going to make sure that this guy paid for what he had done.
Still, he could not help but raise his brows a little, when he realized that despite having all of his bodyguards being taken care of, this young master did not seem scared at all.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
"That's quite good. I had never really thought that you possessed such incredible capabilities. It seems that you are hiding quite a lot." Lucas stated after clapping three times, while looking at Jaden with a smile on his face.
For a moment, Jaden's heart could not help but skip a beat. Hiding a lot? Could it be that the other party knew about him possessing the system? Jaden could not help but pause his movements slightly, as he looked at Lucas cautiously.
"I will introduce myself. My name is Lucas Smith, and I am not from this city. Still, even though I am not from this city, I can easily dominate the entire city using my background." Lucas stated as he folded his hands in front of his chest.
At the same time, he raised his chin, with an arrogant expression on his face. He was smiling, while looking at Jaden's expression, hoping to see some changes.
But even then, other than raised brows, there was no any other reaction from Jaden. It was as if he did not care about the identity that Lucas possessed.
In the end, Lucas simply shrugged his shoulders. Then with his lips pursed, he looked at Jaden. He was scrutinizing him, to see if he could find anything weird about this guy. But no matter how many times he looked, he could not find anything suspicious.
After a while, he finally continued speaking. "Previously, I had intended to come over and beat you up before getting what I want from you. But I want to give you a chance this time. Why don't you think about cooperating with the Smith family? With the background that my family possesses, you will definitely receive much more rewards.
Of course, more than that, if you give me what I want, I will definitely support you. So, you will have no money issues anymore, and you will not have to work as a bouncer in a small club like this. What do you think?" Enjoy exclusive content from m|v|le|mp|yr.
Lucas had already thought it through. Having seen the capabilities that Jaden possessed, he immediately changed his mind. Instead of dealing with this guy, and beating him up, before killing him in the end after receiving everything, he could go ahead and receive more from this guy.
If Jaden agreed to follow him, not only would Lucas managed to be able to get what had brought him to Faru city, but more than that, he would be able to get a skilled person. With that, he believed that he would be incredibly rewarded by his family when he went back.
Jaden could not help but blink his eyes as he looked at Lucas. He wondered in his mind if this guy had a knack of looking for lackeys. Previously, he had refused to become this guy's dog, and in the end, he was beaten up almost to death.
And now, this guy was asking him to join him, as if what he had done previously was nothing. Not to mention the fact that he had almost killed Jaden, he had even gone ahead to hunt Jaden.
Looking at Jaden's unmoved expression, Lucas could not help but furrow his brows. "This is a chance that I'm giving you. But if you think that the chance that I'm giving you is not something that you can appreciate, then there's no problem with that. I can simply force you to give me what I want."
Jaden did not make a move after hearing what Lucas had said. He was still not sure if Lucas knew about the system. Could it be that this guy had come over in order to look for Jaden so that he could give away the system?
Not to mention giving away the system, Jaden did not even have any control over the system. Otherwise, he would have already used the capabilities of the system in order to make sure that he was the strongest person within this entire world, and even possible, the entire universe.
Still, that was just a dream. The system was a complete mystery, and he was not sure if he could unveil the secrets behind it.
Lucas' brows furrowed further when he realized that Jaden was not reacting at all. At this moment, an expression of anger appeared on his face. "Are you looking down on me?"
Jaden did not respond. But at this moment, he had already began considering making a move against this guy called Lucas. But as he was still contemplating on whether to take action or not, he suddenly noticed that there was a man that was coming over.
Just like the previous group, this man was currently wearing a black suit. The expression on his face was extremely cold.
The moment that this man appeared, he looked straight at Jaden. Jaden's pupils could not help but contract. Just by meeting the gaze of the other party, he could already sense danger.
