Chapter 923 A Difficult Path Ahead

As a result of exposing his true power, more people would pay attention to him. On top of that, the

temptation posed by the draconic essence within him would further intensify.

After all, Jared’s power increased by leaps and bounds ever since he swallowed the draconic essence.

Given that many witnessed the fact, they wouldn’t attribute his success to his own efforts. Instead, they

believed it was all due to the essence.

“The path ahead has grown more difficult. Mom, I wonder how you are doing now?” Jared lamented

softly while staring at the sky.

“Mr. Chance, what’s wrong?”

Theodore came over after noticing Jared sitting alone.

“Nothing.” Jared chuckled. “Why aren’t you drinking and making merry with them?”

Sitting by Jared’s side, Theodore handed him a cigarette.

Despite hesitating briefly, Jared took it in the end.

After Theodore lit it for him, Jared took a puff and began to cough intensely.

Chuckling at Jared’s reaction, Theodore lit one for himself and took a long deep puff before exhaling

gradually.

“With regards to the team event three days later, I don’t know how many of us will be able to return,”

Theodore remarked after taking another puff.

His words elicited a momentary silence from Jared, who replied, “I’ll do my best to bring all of them

back.”

Theodore shook his head faintly, “Ichiro must have admitted defeat today with the team event in mind.

Remember, he is truly a crafty one.”

Jared didn’t say anything further as he continued to smoke quietly.

Half an hour later, Jared returned to the banquet together with Theodore. There he found both Lyanna

and Anne knocked out after many rounds of drinking.

Breaking into a helpless smile, he had no choice but to leave with Lyanna.

Meanwhile, inside a hotel near the Department of Justice, Ichiro watched the jubilant celebration with a

grim expression.

“Mr. Watanabe, we have received a message from back home that ordered us to explain what happened

today. What should I tell them?”

A man in a suit approached. He was the leader of the representatives from Jetroina. Even then, he didn’t

dare disrespect Ichiro in any way.

Although Ichiro was defeated and admitted his loss on his knees, no one dared to mock him for it.

Back in Jetroina, the Watanabe family was so influential that even the royal family accorded them due

respect.

“What’s there to explain? Explain how we lost? Just tell them that I lost on purpose so that none of the

members of Chanaea’s team would leave the team event alive,” Ichiro declared coldly while staring at

the leader.

“All right. I understand.”

The leader nodded before turning to leave.

“Wait!” Ichiro suddenly called out to him. “Did you prepare the thing I asked you to?”

Jolted by the question, the leader replied awkwardly, “Mr. Watanabe, we’re in Chanaea after all. If we get

caught preparing the item you asked of me, all of us will be executed here.”

Ichiro scowled, “Are you telling me that you don’t have it?”

“I…” The leader stumbled on his words and didn’t know what to say.

Slap!

All of a sudden, Ichiro slapped the leader on his face. “If you don’t prepare it, I’ll make sure that you won’t

be leaving this place alive!”

Terrified by the threat, the leader bowed in apology. “Mr. Watanabe, it was my mistake. I’ll prepare it at

once.”

After the leader left, Ichiro continued to watch the brightly lit building of the Department of Justice with a

murderous glint in his eye.
