Chapter 93 - Threat Underground (2/2)

”So even after they put their life on the line just so you could figure a way to defeat the beast only for you to end up like this” said Jason as he wave his hand on them.

”You… you just pray I don't get my hands on your else I will make you regret the day you were born” yelled Adam in anger.

”Then what are you waiting for. I will be standing here so you don't have to stress yourself that much” said Jason with a smile on his face.

”I thought you said you needed protection from us so where did you get the strength to play with someone who could kill you within minutes,” asked one of the Triplett.

”Haha, that is because he won't want to waste his time on someone as useless as me” replied Jason with an awkward laugh.

The Triplett who asked Jason the question, couldn't help but shake his head before turning to Adam who was still angry as he asked.

”So where you people able to figure anything about the beast that will be useful to us”.

”We didn't even have the time to study it before they were all killed” replied Adam with a sigh.

”Meaning they all died in vain” said Jason.

”They did not die in vain for now we know that the beast is agile and has a powerful claw and it is small in size which is why we have not been able to kill it” replied Diana.

”I see, no wonder even Adam is having a hard time” commented the eldest of the Triplett.

”Hard time or not, we need to get rid of the beast before we ran out of time just standing still like a statue” said Jason.

”Since you are so eager to enter the ruin. Why don't you help us get rid of the beast than” replied Steven.

”I am beginning to wonder if you will die of heart attack if you don't pie me off” said Jason with a frown on his face.

”No offense man but since you are dying to get inside. While don't you just help us out” said another person.

”Come to think of it, weren't you the one that said why is it taking so long to get rid of the beast. Since you are already here, why don't you just help us out” added Adam with a cunning smile on his face.

”Oh please, am I the only one who is going to benefit from the ruin if the beast were to be slayed, and let's not forget that I might even lose my life there to one of you. So just man up let's go take that beast down already” replied Jason as he turn them down knowing full well that they are thinking of using him to learn more about the beast.

No one agree to take a step forward when Jason said those words making clear that they still cherished their lives even though they are here to hunt for treasure. And seeing that they were not making any moves, Jason let out a sigh as he said out loud for everyone to hear.

”Who would have thought that the so called genius of the families will be this scared when facing a beast even though they are much in number. What a joke you all turn out to be” he said as he spat to the side in disgust.

When the crowd heard his word, they begin to rage but still chose to stay still.

”Here you are saying those words like you are any different, ain't you also a member of the Fox family shame on you boy” said someone from the Platton family.

”Don't get me wrong man, I am only just residing in the Fox family since mine is no more so does that make me a member of the family” asked Jason with a smile on his face.

”If you are not a member of the Fox family, how were you able to get in here” asked the same person.

”Let us just say I was born lucky alright” replied Jason with a laugh.

”I wonder what the grand elder sees in him for he to give the slot out to him” said Steven with a frown.
