How Dare You
“J-Jared!” Desmond had no idea when Jared had appeared behind him. The moment Colton heard
Jared’s name, he hastily whirled around. His expression turned icy when he spotted the man standing
at the hall entrance. “How dare you, Desmond?”
His eyes narrowing dangerously, Jared glowered at Desmond coldly. Every single word out of his
mouth carried infinite murderous intent.
Such fear struck Desmond at the man’s expression that he trembled violently and took several steps
back.
“M-Mr. Chance, I can explain.”
Quivering badly, Desmond attempted to justify things.
“What else is there to explain? Is Ms. Jingle here? Let her go!” Jared ordered chillingly.
Desmond stumbled back several steps before he finally turned his gaze to Colton.
He had no say there, so he could only look to Colton.
“So, you’re Jared Chance, the kid hunted down by Jadeborough’s Warriors Alliance?” Colton looked
Jared up and down. Then, he continued, “Cecilia Jingle is in my bed, and she’s already my woman.
There’s no way I’m allowing you to take her away.”
The instant Jared heard that Cecilia had been sullied by the man, his aura burst forth. The temperature
in the entire hall abruptly plummeted.
A terrifying murderous intent started pervading the air.
“If you’ve really touched Ms. Jingle, I’ll have the entire Rider family pay the price with their lives!”
Jared clenched his jaw, his unfathomable eyes exuding a sense of icy chilliness.
“You want the entire Rider family to pay the price with our lives? What a joke!”
The corners of Colton’s mouth turned up. On the heels of that, two men in robes swiftly charged out
from the back.
When Colton saw those two men, his confidence promptly skyrocketed.
“Finn, Yuvan, kill this impudent kid with me!” he cried out at the two men who rushed over.
“Understood!” The two men nodded.
As the three of them stepped forward and faced off against Jared, their auras intensified.
Jared, on the other hand, had disdain written clear in his eyes in the face of the trio before him. Even
with such trashy capabilities, they dare to challenge me, huh?
Glimpsing the scorn in Jared’s eyes, Colton felt utterly humiliated. His figure blurred, and he lunged at
the man.
“Sagacity Fist!”
In the blink of an eye, he punched out his fist. At once, immense martial energy shot toward Jared like
a cannonball.
“Ice Palm!”
At the same time, Finn made his move as well. A thick layer of ice blanketed his palm, emanating a
freezing chill that crept toward Jared and enveloped him.
Yuvan didn’t miss a beat. He lifted his leg and kicked forward, his toes glowing. As if they had been
turned into blades, the air beneath his feet was all ripped into pieces.
The three of them worked together like a well-oiled machine, attacking Jared from different directions
simultaneously and arriving before him at almost the same time.
At the side, Desmond’s expression inexorably changed when he witnessed that sight.
After beholding the trio’s attack, he knew that the Rider family’s capabilities were indeed not to be
underestimated.
However, Jared merely regarded them with a snicker, seemingly not planning to dodge or retaliate.
While Desmond was still wondering about his inaction, he noticed a golden light shimmering on the
man’s body.
As Golem Body was activated, layers of golden scales covered Jared’s entire body.
At that moment, he resembled a gold-armored warrior, facing off the three men of the Rider family
fearlessly.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Three deafening booms split the air, and the trio struck Jared without fail. The cosmic wave of martial
energy had everything in the main hall turning to dust.
However, Jared didn’t react in the slightest despite their simultaneous attacks, his expression
unchanged. Not a single hair on his head was harmed.
“H-How is this possible?”
Colton gaped at Jared, his eyes brimming with terror.
Finn and Yuvan exchanged a glance, the horror in their eyes evident.
