However, Kazuo''s change of expression merelysted for a brief second. In the next heartbeat, he


    chuckled helplessly.


    “What do you need me to do for you, Mr. Chance? Just say the word. But I hope you''ll keep your


    promise and give me the antidote at the end of the day,” he asserted.


    “Of course. So long as you obey me to the letter, I''ll give you the antidote. Now, tell me about the


    Watanabe family. I bumped into a girl named Yuri Watanabe today. She''s the heiress of the Watanabe


    family, yes?” Jared questioned.


    “You bumped into Yuri?” Kazuo was momentarily taken aback. Then, he started narrating the history of


    the Watanabe family.


    The Watanabe family was a rtively prominent family in Jetroina, especially in Xendale. They


    practically controlled the whole city, and even the authorities had to afford them some respect.


    Otherwise, Kazuo would not be at their mercy despite being a delegate.


    The Watanabes were proliferate and had many descendants, but the current head in control of the


    entire household was Ryosuke Watanabe. He was also none other than Yuri''s father.


    Ichiro, whom Jared had killed, was Asuka Watanabe''s son. Asuka had three sons, and Ichiro was one


    of them.


    Ryosuke and Asuka were biological brothers, but there had been countless conflicts between them


    both in the past as they fought for control over the Watanabe family.


    Right then, it was almost time for the transition of power and the reelection of the head of the


    Watanabe family. As such, strife was already brewing within the Watanabe family though everything


    appeared calm.


    Besides, Ryosuke only had a daughter, Yuri. For that reason, it was uncertain whether he could still


    retain control over the Watanabe family this time.


    Sheer surprise flooded Jared after he had heard all that. I really didn''t expect such a huge family to


    have infighting instead of being indivisible!


    “So, the one who ordered you to kill me was Asuka?” he queried.


    Kazuo nodded in affirmation. “Yeah. As Ryosuke''s daughter is studying in Chanaea, he would never


    give the order to make enemies of Chanaea''s authorities when doing so would endanger his daughter''s


    safety. He''d probably learned about the mess we kicked up in Chanaea and called Yuri back because


    he was afraid that the authorities in Chanaea would harm her. That''s why Yuri suddenly returned to the


    country in a hurry this time.”


    The man''s boration reminded Jared of the phone call Yuri impatiently took on the ne.

    Hmm, the caller was likely urging her to return to Jetroina as soon as possible. From the looks of this,


    there are factions within the Watanabe family. If so, I no longer need to destroy the entire family. As


    long as I eliminate Asuka and his line, no one will be picking trouble with me anymore. Perhaps I can


    even use the conflict between Ryosuke and Asuka to instigate a fight between them. Then, I''ll stand a


    greater chance of finishing Asuka off!


    At that thought, he decided to get in touch with Yuri and feel Ryosuke out.


    Subsequently, he threatened Kazuo.


    “You''d best keep my arrival in Jetroina a secret, Kazuo. If I need your help, I''ll naturally seek you out.


    Remember this—don''t think about ying tricks with me. Even if it''s in Jetroina, your own territory, it''ll


    still be a piece of cake for me if I want to kill you.”


    “No, I''ll never try ying any tricks!”


    Kazuo hastily shook his head profusely. He could sense that the man''s aura had grown significantly


    stronger than it was a few days ago.


    Therefore, he would never dare to pull a fast one on Jared even if he were tempted to do so.


    In his opinion, thetter''s capabilities were too formidable that nothing was impossible for him.


    Jared left Kazuo''s house with xseed, and thetter brought Jared to meet his long-time friend.
