The Man’s Decree

CHAPTER 2002 ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE

“Mr. Watanabe, if Jared has come to Jetroina to take revenge, you'll be in danger. I heard that he's the most powerful person in Jadeborough, Chanaea. Furthermore, he eliminated the Warriors Alliance in Jadeborough and founded the Deragon Sect. It's grown to be the largest clan there! Now that the election is coming, there are already a lot of internal and external threats to deal with. If Jared intends to create mess things up here, we'd be in trouble,” said a worried subordinate to Ryosuke.

Naturally, Ryosuke knew that well. However, there was nothing that he could do.

“Asuka could've provoked anyone but Jared! Now, that man's probably going to settle the score with me!” Ryosuke cursed angrily at his younger brother.

If Asuka had not kept going to Chanaea to take revenge on Jared, Jared would not have come to Jetroina.

Didn't he only lose a son? Since he already has three, losing one doesn't make a huge difference at all!

“Mr. Watanabe, since Ms. Yuri knows Jared, why don't we ask her to explain everything to him? She can make it clear to him that we aren't the ones trying to kill him. If she can secure Jared's help, we'd have a decent shot at winning the election! I've already heard that Asuka's trying to contact Old Mr. Watanabe...” reported his subordinate in a low voice.

“What? Asuka has already contacted Grandpa? He is already over ninety years old! It's been a long time since he stopped caring about family affairs. Could it be that he managed to convince Grandpa otherwise?”

Ryosuke was filled with shock.

The “Grandpa” whom he was referring to was Masato Watanabe. He was actually not his and Asuka's real grandfather. Instead, he was their grandfather's brother.

Since Masato was already over ninety years old, he had stopped managing family affairs for a long time. However, as the eldest member of the Watanabe family with the highest seniority, he was considered an extremely important person in the family.

Hence, Masato's words held considerable power over the family. The branch family members of the Watanabe family would definitely obey his every sentence.

If Asuka managed to secure Masato's help, it would be impossible for Ryosuke to remain the head of the family.

More importantly, Masato was able to directly contact the Thousand Crane Shrine that was backing the Watanabe family.

Although the Watanabe family was considered to be the subordinate family of the Thousand Crane Shrine, it was almost impossible for Ryosuke to even step into the shrine despite being the head of the family.

On the other hand, Masato was different. He could pray at the shrine any time and even manage to get a few words in with the higher-ups there.

“No, I can't wait any longer. Prepare the car. I'm heading to the ancestral home...”

Attacked by a strong sense of threat, Ryosuke decided to meet Masato, hoping that the old man would not intervene in family affairs.
