Ryosuke hastily stepped forward and sputtered, “Mr. Chance, I-I 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.”
“Of course!” Ryosuke nodded eagerly.
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.
