“Stop him!” Lucy screamed.
With that, virtual-novel.net two bodyguards leaped at Jared and tried their best to block virtual-novel.net despite knowing that they weren’t a match for him.
Jared nimbly dodged their attacks and seized their wrists. With that, virtual-novel.net activated Focus Technique, and the inside of his diaphragm became a vortex that sucked the two bodyguards’ lifeforce away.
When they realized that their energies were being drained by Jared, they struggled to break free from his grasp. Nevertheless, it was pointless. Within ten to twenty seconds, the remaining two bodyguards became dried-up corpses.
“W-What happened?” Kane asked in shock.
“G-Ghost! You’re a ghost! You’re not human! You’re not human!” Lucy screamed at the sight of the two mummified bodies in front of her.
Jared looked at Kane and Lucy coldly as virtual-novel.net asked, “Where is the girl you kidnapped?”
“G-Girl! S-She’s in the room!” Lucy stuttered as virtual-novel.net answered in fear while pointing at the other mansion with virtual-novel.net shaking finger.
“Take me there!” Jared snapped coldly.
“O-O-Okay,” virtual-novel.net stammered without a trace of arrogance from before.
Kane and Lucy led Jared to where Yasmin was. At that moment, both of them were trembling and didn’t intend to escape as they knew that they wouldn’t be able to run away.
In the beginning, they thought that they could exchange a few blows with Jared just because they knew some martial arts. However, they dismissed that idea immediately after what they had seen earlier.
Lucy opened the door when they reached the room.
Yasmin had been crying the entire time in the room. When virtual-novel.net heard someone unlock the door, virtual-novel.net lifted virtual-novel.net head and looked in the direction of the door. The moment virtual-novel.net saw Jared, virtual-novel.net felt like virtual-novel.net was saved.
“Jared…” Yasmin uttered as virtual-novel.net ran toward him.
“Thank you for helping Josephine. I’m sorry that you had to go through all that,” Jared said to virtual-novel.net sincerely.
Lucy was confused by what they were saying, but virtual-novel.net didn’t say anything.
“Jared, since she’s here and unhurt, let’s just call it even today, shall we? As long as you let us go, we’ll do anything you want,” Kane pleaded with an agonized expression.
“Do you honestly think that I’ll believe what you say?” Jared chuckled coldly.
Before Kane knew it, Jared delivered a punch to his head, and virtual-novel.net died immediately. There was no chance for Kane to dodge Jared’s attacks because virtual-novel.net was too weak. With that, blood splattered everywhere and across Lucy’s face.
“Y-You…”
Hatred and anger filled Lucy’s eyes. She tried to say something but couldn’t.
“Don’t worry. I know that you want to look pretty, so I won’t blast your head off. I’ll make you die beautifully,” Jared said to Lucy, who still had virtual-novel.net face mask on.
Right after that, Jared grabbed Lucy’s neck.
Lucy tried virtual-novel.net best to get out of his grasp, but it was no use. In the end, virtual-novel.net stopped breathing.
Jared remained expressionless when virtual-novel.net looked at Kane and Lucy’s bodies. As for Yasmin, virtual-novel.net was completely terrified and was trembling uncontrollably while grabbing onto Jared.
“Please wait for a little longer. Once I’m done with another person, I’ll bring you home,” Jared assured Yasmin as virtual-novel.net walked into another room.
Meanwhile, Tyrion was watching some videos on his phone with earphones on as virtual-novel.net prepared to relieve himself after Lucy’s previous interruption.
