CHAPTER 2029 LIST OF DEAD SUBORDINATES


    At that moment, Jared and his group stood out like a sore thumb because they were the only ones who


    weren''t kneeling.


    When Hiroichi turned to the awkward-looking group of people and saw Ryosuke, his expression shifted


    instantly. Why is Ryosuke here? Did Mieko fail her mission?


    Despite noticing them, he didn''t do anything because he had to ensure that the ritual concluded without


    issues.


    He would bemitting a great sin if he questioned or caused a ruckus with Ryosuke.


    “What kind of f*cking deity is this?” xseed cursed upon seeing the sculpture.


    That caused plenty of worshippers to face him.


    Hastily, Ryosuke exined, “Mr. xseed, that''s the statue of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the Martial Arts God


    from a few hundred years ago. He''s the deity that Thousand Crane Shrine worships!”


    “D*mn! Really? Only a few hundred years ago? He doesn''t deserve to be called a deity,” xseed


    sneered.


    Even though he didn''t speak loudly, everyone could hear him clearly.


    Promptly, the worshippers red at him with unbridled fury.


    Hiroichi narrowed his eyes, which were overflowing with murderous intent. They''re clearly causing a


    commotion here!


    However, xseed didn''t mind the attention because his group was there to look for trouble anyway.


    Smiling awkwardly, Ryosuke said, “I know a few hundred years isn''t as impressivepared to


    Chanaea''s culture that spanned thousands of years, but...” If Mr. xseed utters even one more word,


    those murderous worshippers won''t hesitate to attack us!


    Even Hiroichi almost couldn''t hold himself back anymore.


    Still, he suppressed his anger. He had no choice because the ritual was too crucial to Thousand Crane


    Shrine.


    Out of nowhere, a voice belonging to an ancient being traveled into his ears. “Bring them inside.”


    Upon hearing that, Hiroichi stood up and faced Ryosuke coldly. “Bring your people with you and follow


    me inside, Hiroichi.”


    Ryosuke turned to Jared to seek his approval, and Jared nodded in response.


    As the group entered the shrine, the grand ritual was temporarily paused.


    Thousands of worshippers watched Jared''s group enter the shrine with envy.


    After all, non-worshippers weren''t supposed to have the right to enter the shrine.


    Many had been worshippers for more than a decade to have a chance of stepping foot into the shrine.


    When Jared''s group entered the shrine, Hiroichi unbottled his rage and roared at Ryosuke, “You


    motherf*cker! How dare you bring these buffoons here and provoke us openly! On the day of the grand


    ritual, no less!”


    His fury instantly overwhelmed Ryosuke.


    Ryosuke''s expression shifted. In the past, it would have been difficult for him to even meet Hiroichi.


    Being reprimanded as such by Hiroichi genuinely frightened him.


    “I''m the one who wants us toe here so I can meet your deity. If you have any issues, bring them up


    with me,” stated Jared as his aura exploded from his body, which swiftly suppressed Hiroichi''s.


    “You?” It took a second for Hiroichi to recall who Jared was. “You''re the one who killed Kawano? Jared


    Chance?”


    “That''s right. You can add one more person to your list of dead subordinates because I also killed


    Maki.” Jared smiled.


    “What? You killed Maki? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!” Hiroichi refused to believe him.

    “What''s so impossible about that? Both Maki and Mieko are dead. Did you not wonder what happened


    to them when they didn''t show up?” Jared mocked.


    That enraged Hiroichi, causing murderous intent to swell around him.
