The Pre-eminent Jason Spectre

Chapter Eight

Jason's eyebrows raised, George was telling the truth, strange things were happening, and his body seemed to be packed with a lot of energy.

“What is happening to me, does it have something to do with this ring”

George examined the ring and his eyebrows raised, it's growing really fast, the master is evolving at a fast rate.

At this rate, it will take only a month for the master to fully have access to all the powers that have been cultivated into the ring.

This is remarkable.

He faces Jason.

“It has something to do with the ring, that ring is the ring of supremacy, and it's only given to the next successor of the Spectre family.

“It houses all the strength and abilities of the former predecessor”

Jason's heart was starting to pound heavily, this is serious, this ring is truly something else, he was scared for some unknown reason.

“Why is it happening now, I have been putting it on since I was five”

George stepped closer to Jason.

“You are up to the age now, and your blood came in contact with the ring”

The scene flashes on Jason's head, this is real, this is really happening, this ring is what is causing the sudden burst of energy inside him, and George Winston, the Mayor of Ocean Berry is his disciple.

Is this even possible.

Jason faced George.

“What do you mean, I am the last surviving heir, where is my family”

George's eyes moved to the ground, he was silent for a while before he said.

“They are dead, they were killed”

He faced Jason.

“Your family abandoned you so they could protect you, none of us knew about you, we thought everybody perished, that is why we failed to find you”

“What do you mean, We”

Jason was finding his words confusing.

“I am not your only disciple, you have others, while you were in danger a while ago, the ring was sending out warning signals to all of us. That is how I located you”

Jason paused, staring at George, he has other disciples, who are they and what is their status in the society, those thoughts vanished quickly.

“Who is responsible for my family's death”

Having the Winston family as one of his disciples, then his family is powerful, who then is capable of destroying such a powerful family.

“The Amaranthine. An association that is being governed by darkness. The devil himself”

George kneels close to Jason, he already admires the master's courage, he will put his life on the line to ensure the master's safety.

“Master, you don't need to worry about that. Right now, you must keep your identity a secret, your power is growing, it's the fastest ever recorded in your family history.

“A month from now, you will have full control of your power, then the Amaranthine won't dare to stand in your way, and you can seek revenge if you please”

“I will avenge my family”

Jason sounded immediately. His fist was tightly squeezed, all this while, he thought his parents were poor so they abandoned him because they couldn't cater for him. He was wondering why they decided to have him when they knew they cannot take care of him.

His fist hardened more, he didn't know that they sacrificed their lives just to ensure his safety, and they gave him their most valuable treasure, giving this ring away is probably one of the reasons they failed to protect themselves.

He will avenge them, he must avenge them.

George's cheeks moved, he bowed his head on the floor.

“Until the master obtains his full strength, I will protect you, and I will fight alongside you when the time comes”

Jason takes a deep breath.

“Stand up, all of you”

All the men stand up, including George, Junior hands George his contact card.

George bows 90 degrees and hands the card to Jason.

“This is my contact card master, feel free to call any time you please”

Jason accepted the card from George's hands. George's cheeks raised seeing the master accepted his card.

He kneels on the floor again.

Jason's place the card in his pocket.

“George, I want a meeting with all my disciples, and I want you to set the date and time. I need to know my people, those that are following me”

George stands to his feet and bows 90 degrees again.

“Yes master”

Jason turned facing the exit.

“I need to head back to my dormitory, I will call you if I need anything”

George bows 90 degrees.

“Absolutely, master.

“Should I escort you back”

He was excited that he was the first among the disciples to see the master. It's such an honor to enlighten the master about his past. He wished he could stay with the master all day.

“That won't be appropriate, I have to leave”

“I understand, master”

George's eyes remained on the floor.

Landon bash his front door open, he walked straight to the wine rack in the living room, he brought out a wine and poured himself a full glass.

He drank the whole glass in one go, then he poured himself another full glass, he raised the glass to his mouth but the pleasure to continue was suddenly disconnected inside him.

“Dammit!!”

He threw the glass away, then he smashed the wine on the floor.

“That fucking bastard!!, That fucking prick!”

Landon tried to calm his pressure, but his breath kept increasing.

“I have to kill him”

He nods repeatedly to his words.

“I have to kill him!!!”

Landon's rush to the telephone close to the wine rack. He dialed the numbers swiftly.

“Yes, Bobby Emmett. I have a job for you, and I want it done immediately”

The man on the other side sounded from a nightclub.

“Who do you want to kill this time”

Landon grips tighten on the telephone.

“It's just a university student, he should be on his way to his dormitory now, I want you to kill him. I will send you the necessary information, and the money”

The man on the other side stands up from his seat.

“Okay boss”

Landon dropped the telephone back, his facial expression remain deadly, the kid is good at martial art, but he is not up to the level of a one-star warrior, all Bobby men are one-star warriors, and Bobby himself is at the edge of breaking into a two-star warrior, killing the kid should be as easy as breathing for him.

His fingers drummed on the table. That bastard must die!
