The Man’s Decree

“Of course, I do! The Dragon Bell and Divine Bow are not what you think, though. Owning them is bound to attract a lot of unwanted attention, so you need to be prepared for people who will try to take them from you!” Arthur replied.

Jared had never told Arthur about the divine weapons that he got, so he couldn't help but wonder how Arthur found out about them.

“I can read you like an open book. You can't possibly keep secrets from me,” Arthur added when he saw the confused look on Jared's face.

Jared broke out in a cold sweat when he heard that.

Wait a minute... Does that mean he knows everything about me? What about the fact that I slept with Feenix and Hailey? Does he know about that too?

With that in mind, Jared asked, “What kind of person are you, Mr. Sanders? How do you know me so well? Do you also know about my personal affairs?”

Of course, Arthur knew exactly what Jared was trying to ask. “I couldn't care less about the women you sleep with.”

Jared felt so awkward that he didn't even know what to say in response to that.

“Next time, do not reveal your divine weapons unless absolutely necessary. You are still not strong enough to unleash their full potential, so using them will only draw more unwanted attention to yourself. Also, you fought Tanner of the Evil Heart Sect, didn't you?” Arthur asked.

Jared nodded. “We clashed once, but that was just a shadow clone of him. I'm no match for him at all.”

“If he wanted to kill you, he would've done so long ago. The fact that you're still alive means he didn't want you dead. He still has use for you, but he severely underestimates your potential. That is exactly what I want him to do,” Arthur said.

Jared felt a little frustrated. “Are you saying that I'm no match for him even if I use the Dragon Bell and Divine Bow?”

Arthur let out a chuckle. “As I said, you are still unable to unleash the full potential of the Dragon Bell and Divine Bow. How do you even plan on fighting him?”

“What about you, Mr. Sanders? Which one of you is stronger? You? Or Tanner?” Jared asked as he believed Arthur's power was beyond imagination.

“I'd say we're equals at best. The main difference between us is that I only have one month left to live,” Arthur replied.

His tone was so calm that it felt as though he did not fear death at all.

“Why is that? Do you have some kind of strange disease or something? How about I take a look at you, Mr. Sanders? I believe I might be able to find a cure!” Jared exclaimed anxiously.
