Chapter 2011 A Deity
Ryosuke hastily stepped forward and sputtered, “Mr. Chance, l-l didn't realize you were a deity! I have been a fool. I
should not have taken you lightly!”
He would have worshiped Jared on an altar had he known the latter was a deity earlier.
"A deity?” Jared was baffled by Ryosuke's words.
Flaxseed noticed his confusion and briefly explained the situation to him. Only then did Jared realize that this was
one of Fandor's tricks.
Jetroinians were well-known for their superstitious beliefs in deities.
In any case, Jared had just experienced a breakthrough and was eager to test out his improved abilities. He did not
bother correcting Ryosuke's misconception and declared, “Please bring me to meet Asuka, Mr. Ryosuke.”

Ryosuke's mansion was barely a mile away from Asuka's, and the group soon arrived at their destination.
Asuka and his son, Haruto, happened to be staring in the direction of Ryosuke's mansion.
A perplexed Haruto asked his father, “What's going on, Father? We barely arrived, and it looks as if a heavy
thunderstorm is imminent.”
Asuka frowned slightly and replied, “That can't be right. I didn't hear of any incoming thunderstorms on our way
here. How can the weather change in an instant? Let's not worry about that for now. Get everything in order and
head to your great-grandfather's. The elections are starting soon, and I must secure my position as the next head
of the Watanabe family.”
Then, Asuka returned to his room.
Not long after that, Ryosuke arrived at his mansion with Jared in tow.
Jared glanced at the front door. With a single kick, he smashed the pure bronze door into debris.
The commotion alerted the guards in Asuka's household. More than ten men armed with katanas rushed toward
the front door, surrounding Jared in seconds.
Asuka stomped out of his room furiously, though anger quickly turned to confusion when he spotted his elder
brother with an unknown young man in the center of the crowd.
He asked, “Ryosuke, what is the meaning of this? Did you bring someone here to smash down my door?”
“I'm not here to destroy your door; I'm here to see you. Haven't you always wished to avenge your son? This man
here is your enemy,” Ryosuke explained and pointed at Jared.
Asuka stiffened in surprise. He looked at Jared and frowned. “This man is Jared Chance?”
Jared nodded in affirmation. “In flesh and blood. I was the one who killed Ichiro Watanabe.”
“That's impossible!” Asuka's disbelief was palpable as he continued, “Kazuo killed Jared a long time ago. How can

Jared merely smirked and drawled, “Don't believe me? Why don't you call Kazuo and ask the man himself? Do you
really think someone like him could actually kill me?”
Asuka's expression darkened at Jared's words. With a knowing glance, he sent Haruto off to call Kazuo and confirm
Jared's allegations.
Alas, none of Haruto's calls went through. Asuka's eyes narrowed thoughtfully. He was beginning to believe Jared's
claims.
He shot Ryosuke an accusatory glare and demanded, “You're the head of the Watanabe family, Ryosuke, yet here
you are colluding with the enemy. What is the meaning of this? Don't you know he killed Ichiro?”
To his surprise, Ryosuke replied sneeringly, “Don't say anything else, Asuka. What haven't you done to fight for the
position of the family head? I haven't seen you as a brother for a long time! I already know you and Masato
conspired to send Yuri to the shrine. I will never agree to it.”
Asuka scoffed and retorted, “Did you truly think working with Jared would allow you to defy Grandpa's wishes,
Ryosuke? Still, I suppose I must thank you for your little stunt today. It sure will save me plenty of trouble.”
He waved his hand and summoned his guards. "Get them! Kill that man!”
