A Man Like None Other Chapter 893

Chapter 893 Kill You

Seeing that Steinar was not buying it, Jared knew that he had no recourse but to fight his way out. Hence, he elevated his own aura while he kept his eyes on Steinar, for amongst the lot of them, it was the latter who posed the biggest threat to him.

When he noticed the aura building up on Jared’s body, Steinar laughed, “Have you still the courage to test your mettle? Believe me when I say that your efforts would be in vain. Your only way out of this is through compliance…”

Though Jared offered no verbal response, a terrifying aura that erupted from his glowing body went spiraling right for Steinar, and at that same instant, Jared lunged himself at Steinar.

He needed to take Steinar off guard as it would be the most ideal scenario for him should he be able to take out his enemy in a single maneuver.

Steinar’s eyes narrowed and his lips curled up. It would seem that he had long anticipated being targeted.

With an extended palm, Steinar spontaneously conjured up a ray of golden light right before their very eyes that stood protectively in front of him, shielding him like a wall.

“I heard that you possess an indestructible body, something that I too happen to know a thing or two about. Today, allow me to entertain you properly…”

With that, Steinar’s body began to exude a gilded glow of its own as well.

As surprised as Jared was by that, there would be no turning back from him by this point. That was, unless, he meant to give up the draconic essence—an option that he would not pursue. Never mind how important this draconic essence was to him personally, it was something Renee gave her life for in exchange. That alone was reason enough for him to not relinquish it to anyone else.

Bang!

Jared’s punch came savagely at Steinar from the front, sending beams of light firing out in every direction. After an earth-shattering boom, that golden shield in front of Steinar splintered into a mist of gleaming glitter before it scattered to the winds.

The disconnect from his expectations took Steinar slightly by surprise. “No wonder my brother was not able to land anything on you. Judging from this punch alone, you have to be stronger than a third-level Martial Arts Grandmaster. Seems like many had been deceived by your outward appearance…”

“Oh, shove it…”

Upon the failure to land his first attempt, Jared followed up promptly, unleashing another devastating fist in tandem with yet another roar.

This time, he had brought the output of his spiritual energy to the maximum. Considering what he was presently up against, Jared did not dare to take any chances.

Narrowing his eyes to a slit, Steinar made no attempt at evasive countermeasures. Instead, his body was basked in a glow that made him appear like a warrior clad in a golden aegis.

Clang!

A sonorous clashing between metals ensued. Jared’s face fell while he was sent stumbling backward.

Not only did that blow fail to inflict any damage on Steinar, Jared conversely felt a numbness upon his own arm.

“How is that possible?”

Jared was astounded, for he knew that that punch of his was capable of smashing through even the toughest walls of steel. Against Steinar, however, it showed no efficacy whatsoever.

“Although your prowess is considerable, you’re still much too young. I’d be made a laughing stock if I was to be outmatched by a little rascal like you in spite of those decades of cultivation under my belt. Thus, I’d advise you to stop wasting your energy. Hand over the draconic essence, and I might spare you your life…” Steinar said with a sneer.

“Not in your dreams…”

Jared steadily raised his own right arm once more, and with that, the Dragonslayer Sword was manifested instantly inside of his hand.

Blood stirred upon the surface of its blade before the red fluid became set ablaze.

“Oh, there’s more…”

Steinar’s eyes widened in mild surprise before the aura on his body intensified. His expression, too, took on a comparatively more solemn turn.

At the same time that Steinar’s group saw Jared summon the Dragonslayer Sword, they too drew from their own belts shortswords a dozen inches long. But soon after, the swords in the hands of this quartet expanded to three feet in length.

Straight afterward, their swords were thrust out in four divergent directions. As they chanted away, beams upon beams of resplendent light coalesced briskly until they enveloped Jared and Steinar, as though it was a space conceived to confine them both.
