Chapter 95: {Bonus Chapter} I'm Not Your Lackey!
The moment that this man appeared, he looked straight at Jaden. Jaden's pupils could not help contract. Just by meeting the gaze of the other party, he could already sense danger.
Jaden's heart rate suddenly increased. For the first time ever since receiving the system, he was sensing danger. In fact, even before he received the system, he did not have the capability of detecting danger coming from anybody.
But it seemed that due to the skills and the information that he possessed due to intermediate level combat skills, he was able to tell if the person that he was facing was dangerous to him or not.
And right now, due to the feeling that he had, he could immediately tell that if he fought against this person, he would definitely suffer. He was not sure about the capabilities of the other party, but it was clear that this person was not simple.
While Jaden was still contemplating on what to do, Lucas smiled. He looked at the person who had come over, before shifting his gaze to look at Jaden.
Previously, he had been quite nervous. After all, this cold person that had been guarding him, had somehow decided to leave for some time. So, for the past 1 hour or so, he had been alone without this guy.
But now, he was here. Even though he was not sure about the capabilities that this person possessed, since he was assigned to him by his father, it was clear that he possessed enough capabilities to be able to deal with Jaden.
So, he's confidence immediately shot through the roof the moment that the man came over. He looked at Jaden with an arrogant expression on his face.
"What do you think? Are you going to agree to join me, or do you want me to extract everything from you personally? And let me warn you, if I decide to do that, you will definitely not like it. And more than that, you will not gain anything in the end of it all other than the pain that you will be undergoing." Lucas asked as he began approaching Jaden.
Jaden on the other hand simply ignored Lucas. Instead, he looked at the newcomer. The man went ahead and stood behind Lucas. At that moment, Jaden immediately understood that this person belonged to Lucas' camp.
That was kind of to be expected. At the end of the day, Lucas had just boasted about his background. It was clear that his background was quite huge. So, Jaden immediately believed what he had said before. It seemed that the capabilities of the background that this guy was coming from were something that nobody in this city could deal with.
Jaden was not sure if he was the strongest person within this city, but he understood that it was going to be difficult for him to be able to deal with this man.
And more than that, since the other side had the capability of sending a person with this kind of capabilities to guard a young master, then it implied that they definitely possessed more than just that. Discover content on NovelFire,em,pyr.
So at this moment, Jaden could not help but be a little cautious. He was not sure about the background of the other party, and neither did he care. In any case, he had decided that he would have to deal with Lucas.
But it was going to be a little trouble some for him to be able to deal with Lucas in the presence of this man. So, he began contemplating on what to do. No matter what, he had to make sure that the mission was completed first.
Perhaps the system would reward him with higher level combat skills, something that would enable him to deal with this man. But when he thought much about it, it was better for him to be rewarded with something that could strengthen his body instead.
At the end of it all, with his current physical capabilities, he was not capable of exhibiting the full power of the intermediate level combat skills. So, giving him advanced skills would just be useless.
Lucas was immediately infuriated after realizing that Jaden was not responding at all. He immediately approached Jaden and looked him directly in the eye once the distance between them was reduced to less than half a meter.
"Don't say that I didn't give you a chance. I have given you the chance again and again. But it seems that you are hell-bent on going against me. Since that is the case, then don't blame me." Lucas stated in a domineering tone.
Then without waiting for Jaden to say anything, he immediately turned around and looked at the man who always accompanied him. "I would like you to take care of him. Make sure that he doesn't have the capabilities of moving at all."
Immediately after giving the command, he turned around and looked at Jaden. At the same time, there was a cold expression on his face, with a sneer in the corner of his lips. He was already looking forward to the fate that Jaden was going to face.
Even though it was a pity that he did not manage to convince Jaden to join him, still, as long as he managed to get what had brought him to this city, he did not care. All in all, he was going to be rewarded after going back home.
Lucas waited for a few seconds, before he suddenly realized that there was something wrong. He had already given a command, but he had not heard any movements coming from behind him.
He turned around, only to be greeted by the sight of the man whom he had asked to deal with Jaden, standing in the same position as if he had not heard what was said before.
Lucas blinked his eyes for a moment, as he did not know how to react. And a few seconds later, an expression of anger immediately appeared on his face.
Looking at the man who seemed to be completely ignoring him, Lucas immediately shouted. "I am f*cking talking to you! I have already told you that you should f*cking deal with the brat here. Why are you still standing there? Did you not hear me?"
Despite his shouts, the man continued standing in the same position. In fact, he even went ahead and closed his eyes. With him closing his eyes, it was a clear indication that he was not going to take action at all.
Lucas could not help but feel exasperated. He was already used to ordering around his subordinates. Right now, all the bodyguards that he had come with had already been dealt with.
So, the only hope for him to be able to deal with Jaden was in this man. But it seemed that this person was not going to listen to him no matter how many times he ordered him.
Jaden on the other hand was surprised by this scene. He had already prepared himself to take action in case the other party decided to act against him. But looking at the way that the other party was, it was clear that he did not intend to take action at all.
But by standing behind Lucas, his stance was clear. In case Jaden decided to attack Lucas, this person would definitely take action. Even though Jaden was not willing, he had no choice in this situation.
It could be said that he was currently at a great disadvantage. Not to mention the matter related to the background and connections, even his capabilities were not enough to be able to easily take care of the other party.
For that reason, he had no choice but to retreat. But of course, incase that man decided to take action and support Lucas in doing anything against Scarlet, Jaden would definitely not hesitate to take action.
Even though he had decided to retreat for the time being, that did not imply that he was going to give up on taking revenge on Lucas. He was simply going to postpone it. With the system, it was not impossible for him to be able to reach a greater level.
The time that he would have enough capabilities, he would definitely make sure to deal with this young man. That was something that he had already sworn in his heart.
While Lucas was trying to think of a way that he was going to use in order to make this man take action against Jaden, the other party finally opened his eyes. Then, with the indifferent expression on his face, he stated, "I don't follow any orders, not even from your father. So, you better behave yourself.
This time, I'm only here to ensure your security while you are here. Other than that, you better not think that I am your lackey that you can simply order around. Make sure to keep that in mind. Otherwise, if you try this again the next time, I will definitely not be lenient with you."
Lucas was completely dumbfounded after hearing those words. This guy would not listen to any command, not even from his father? How was that even possible? From the way that he understood his father's character, it was clear that his father was an arrogant and prideful person.
So, how was it possible for him to allow a person like this, who could not listen to his commands, to be near his son? That was an impossibility, right?
Just as Lucas was finding it hard to believe, the man did not care. Instead, he continued speaking, "We are leaving right now. It is clear that you don't have enough capabilities to handle the matter that you had been sent over to deal with. So, it is time for you to go back."
