Chapter 834 The Thought of Momentarily End the Bloody Trap

The night was quiet and peaceful.

When the sky had just glowed faintly, Jack who was still in deep slumber vaguely felt some movements

near him.

When he opened his eyes, he saw Amber burrowing herself into their blanket carefully.

This made Jack instantly freshened up.

“Why did you stick yourself in?”

His sudden question made Amber freeze on the spot.

Amber was gaping at Jack with astonishment, “D—Did I wake you up?”

Jack didn’t say anything as his gaze was fixed on Amber.

The next second, Amber suddenly smiled ruefully as she plastered herself on Jack’s chest. She began

to suck up to him with her eyes stretched wide, “I have been missing you a lot, so I want to sleep with

you.”

Jack furrowed his brows and said in a low bass voice, “Amber, how many times did I need to tell you

this? We need to sleep separately now. It’s taking into consideration your body.”

“But I still want to sleep with you, even without doing anything. Can’t I just idle by your side like this?”

Amber was looking very indignant, and some tears could be seen in her eyes.

However, Jack’s gaze was determined as he looked at Amber, “Are you sure that you’re just going to

chill by my side?”

Their eyes met.

In the face of Jack’s scorching gaze, Amber looked a little flustered as she quickly averted her gaze,

“Yes… maybe… that’s right.”

Jack could only let out a sigh.

Then he lightly pushed Amber away from clinging to him and he followed up with a pinching at her

nose.

“Hey, it hurts!”

Amber quickly removed Jack’s hand as she showed a lightly agonized expression.

Jack smiled nonchalantly, “How can I trust you while you are so unsure of yourself?”

As he said that, Jack put on his clothes and moved to his wheelchair.

He stole a glance at Amber who was looking pitiful and started to console her with a smile, “Enough.

After your confinement period is over, we will resume sleeping together again. I will try to control myself

during this period of time. Your health is my priority!”

Amber’s eyes flickered with some reflection.

In the end, she could only nod helplessly, “Alright, then.”

When the two of the left the room, they immediately sniffed the aroma of dishes.

Jack took in the aroma and laughed, “Daisy’s cooking is really getting better.”

“Then, you should eat more today as a sigh of approval!”

Daisy replied with a smile.

Very soon, Mysterious Man, Brent and Mr. Ward all woke up.

They shared the breakfast in an upbeat mood.

Nobody brought up the “Bloody Trap” during the whole time. It was as if today was nothing more than

an ordinary one, and nothing of interest had happened recently.

After they finished their breakfast, Amber and Daisy busied themselves on clearing the dishes while

Jack, Mysterious Man, Mr. Ward and Brent huddled around the living area to enjoy some tea.

The casual, light mood was no more.

“I guess that everything is going to start from today?”

After putting down his tea cup, Jack broke the silence.

“Roughly.”

Mysterious Man nodded and replied with a hoarse voice, “That massacre in South Maine could only do

so much in delaying time.”

“Actually, I thought of something that could maybe solve this Bloody Trap yesterday night.”

Jack rubbed his nose while producing a “Tao Te Ching” and started leafing through the pages.

Upon hearing that, Mysterious Man, Mr. Ward and Brent all looked at Jack, especially Mr. Ward and

Brent.

Their eyes were frantic and shocked.

Even Patrick chose to not act recklessly in this Bloody Trap, so what could the young master come up

with?

“Come out with it if you really have a plan.”

The Mysterious Man peeked at the injury on his body and said with a grave tone, “With our situation

now, although we are cluttered up in the headquarters which is relatively safer than South Maine, but

all the top combatants here are hurt in some way or other. We can’t go out with our full strength.”

Jack produced a smile as he closed the pages of “Tao Te Ching”. He looked at Mysterious Man with a

perplexed expression and said amusingly, “So you do feel fear sometimes?”

Upon hearing that, both Mr. Ward and Brent couldn’t stifle their chuckles.

Ever since Mysterious Man made his debut, he gave off the impression that he could fight off anything

like a tyrannical lord of war.

This held true especially in the war of South Maine.

After getting hurt in that war with the Iga, he never made an appearance. He just laid low to face waves

of assassins from all directions.

For Mysterious Man to say something so seriously, the situation now must have given him a lot of

pressure and stress!

Mysterious curled up his lips to form a wry smile. Although he was appearing to smile, he looked

forlorn.

He opened his mouth and a hoarse voice sounded, “This is the Bloody Trap. All of the top assassins

from all factions are coming altogether. I am not a god; I am just a man!”

Jack rubbed his nose and smiled again, but the glint of sharpness never faded from his eyes, “Perhaps,

if I leave by myself, I could temporarily end this Bloody Trap.”

What?

A very confusing expression appeared on the faces of Mysterious Man, Mr. Ward and Brent. They had

a drastic change of expression.

“Young master, don’t be so reckless!” Mr. Ward immediately warned.

Although perplexed, Mr. Ward could never agree with whatever Jack was going to propose.

At least, at first glance, they could know what Jack had come up with.

The Bloody Trap was concocted in the first place because of Jack solely.

If Jack went against it alone, he wouldn’t have just end the Bloody Trap… It would be just that he would

shoulder all the dangers alone in exchange for everyone’s safety.

In another words, he was going to snatch away all the clouds of fear hovering over everyone’s head

and accumulated them on himself!

When Jack decided to leave, the Bloody Trap would follow him. All those assassins would tail Jack.

They wouldn’t pay any attention to the others being left behind.novelbin

“Young master, if you do that, you are just sacrificing your life for our safety.”

Brent chipped in.

Only the Mysterious Man was gawking at Jack with a complicated expression. Something was playing

in his mind.

When faced with Mr. Ward and Brent’s objections, Jack simply smiled to dismiss their concerns. He

waved his hands to signal them to calm down then he began slowly, “I am not just throwing myself in

danger for your sake, but I am…”

After a pause, there was a weird smile on Jack’s face, “If I have gone to the Dragon Cavalry, do you

think all those assassins would still come to kill me in that place?”

His last sentence was like an atomic bomb detonating in their heads.

In an instant, Mr. Ward and Brent were completely ruffled.

Even the Mysterious Man couldn’t stay still anymore. He clenched his fists, which made the veins on

them bulge.

After three seconds of silence, Mr. Ward clapped his hands vigorously, “That’s right, what a great idea!

The Dragon Cavalry’s name reaches far and wide, and their name alone intimidates all the other clans

in the North, and nobody dares to come intruding. Zenith’s name was so big, as long as young master

can make it to the Dragon Cavalry, let alone Bloody Angel or Iga, even if the Hughes family wanted to

go there, they couldn’t have done anything!”

“Oh! How can I forget this? I forgot that Jack is already the Chief Guard of the Twelve Golden Guard.”

Brent’s eyes lit up as he quickly added his own opinion.
