Wales, England, England,

‘Choose an opponent who suits yourself and your abilities, then if you want to fight him, there is a chance that victory will be on your side.'

A wise sentence commonly used as a benchmark, written as such. I don't know who the originator is, but whoever it is - if what the originator of the wise sentence says is true.

But not everyone who can remember the wise sentence when the arrogance followed by greed has stuck in themselves.

That is the correct way to describe a Jaeden Zepeto.

His arrogance and greed made Jaeden not remember the wise words at all, or maybe the man never knew.

But whatever it is, his arrogance and greed that makes him a person who justifies all means to achieve his goals, ultimately makes Jaeden have to face his grudge of an Adjieran Son Vinson-or Patrick Vinson Junior's Son.

The revenge of the Son that made Jaeden had to swallow a very bitter pill in his life, due not to think about the Son who would do the thing that the man had done to him.

And yet it has been made as ruined now by the Son, but Jaeden seems to forget his bad luck, which now challenges the Son to a duel. On the basis of him who feels he can intimidate the Son, in addition to being proud of his physical strength.

“FIGHT ME ONE BY ONE IF YOU DARE (FACE ME ONE ON ONE IF YOU DARE )!”

Jaeden who speaks and challenges the Son.

“Sure, why not ( Sure, why not )?”

Where Jaeden's challenge was immediately answered quickly by the Son.

Which Jaeden thought earlier, he would see doubt on the Son's face.

But in fact Putra responded quickly to the challenge, making Jaeden feel anxious for a moment.

But only for a moment, because of the arrogance then control Jaeden again over himself who was too confident and even dared to ask the Son a reward if he won.

“If I win, you have to let me go (If I win, you have to let me go )”

As well as,

“And I want black on white for that (And I want there to be black over white for that )”

Which Jaeden's challenge and request was responded cynically by those who were with the Son. But the Son himself, seemed relaxed.

“Just give what he wants (Just give him what he wants ), Edgard,” said Putra after he could be guessed if Jaeden had finished with his request on the basis of the man's confidence which was so great, and Putra could catch Jaeden's arrogance.

Smiling obliquely faced with the challenge and confident attitude Jaeden who can still feel arrogant even though he is soon going to be right – completely destroyed, but Putra salut also on Jaeden whose scheming brain still runs despite having a lot of loss outside the property of the family of the deceased Rery that he seized in a very dirty way.

“Anything else? (There's more? )” asked the Son to Jaeden after the man also asked for a stamp from Holmes on the letter of agreement which he requested as an endorsement in case of victory, because indeed the stamp of Holmes can be his ticket to be free to remember the power that Holmes has.

“How about fight ‘till death? (How about fighting to the death? )” Jaeden replied with a grin.

“Heemm –“

“Dare? ( Dare? ) ...”

“It looks like he's sure as hell about to win from you.” It was Addison who spoke Indonesian that had started well, right after Jaeden issued an affirmation of his challenge to Putra.

“It looks like so.”

The son replied to Addison's speech also in Indonesian, where Jaeden frowned because he did not understand.

While Putra chuckled lightly after answering the same Addison chuckled lightly then with Danny and Devoss who also already understand Indonesian.

The rest who did not understand the language used by Addison and the Son of their stronghold were silent, damian whispers to ask Danny, who is standing nearby, about Addison and Putra's brief conversation.

“Just read (Just read )”

Devoss is talking, though, when he showed the covenant letter which had been affixed with Holmes's official seal when Devoss showed it from outside the bars where Jaeden was still in his brackets - Jaeden was about to seize it and Devoss immediately brushed aside to keep the letter out of Jaeden's reach.

“Let us know if you suffer of a myopic. We’ll send our men to buy an eyewear for you (Tell us if you are myopic. We'll have our men buy you glasses ) ..” Damian taunts Jaeden who is starting to take his face seriously when he reads the letter of agreement Devoss showed him from outside the bars.

And Damian's taunts on Jaeden were of course greeted with naughtiness from his – people. Making Jaeden momentarily glance cynically at Damian.

“After I killed your Boss, how about you the next?! (After I kill your boss, how about you be next?! ) –“

Damian immediately laughed amusedly after hearing Jaeden's words that looked furious also at him.

The rest chuckled. Except Jaeden.

“Finish reading? (Have you finished reading it? )”

The voice of the Son was heard later.

“’Cause if you found a difficulties, my brother won’t mind to read that for you ( Because if you find trouble, my brother doesn't mind reading it to you )”

He said a small word to Jaeden afterwards, where Jaeden immediately screeched cynically after hearing the Son's speech.

“And I’m not wasting my time here (And I did not spend – time here )” continued Putra.

Jaeden smiled obliquely then.

“So proud (Brag about once ), huh?”

Jaeden sneered later.

“A servant who act like a master.”

(A servant acting like a master)

♦♦

“Now I’m very ready to send you to hell (Now I am very ready to send you to hell )”

Jaeden stared intently at the Son from behind the bars he clutched again his two pillars. And the Son just cheered lazily just respond to it.

♦♦

“Take him out, Edgard. Let’s see what he got.”

(Get him out, Edgard. We see his ability )

The son, tired of hearing Jaeden's ravings, spoke to his son Holmes.

“Cih!”

Jaeden was heard immediately grieving after Putra spoke to the man named Edgard.

“I’ll destroy your arrogancy right away (I'll destroy your arrogance as soon as possible )” said Jaeden sharply.

♦♦

“Ten minutes ( Ten minutes )?”

Damian spoke to Son when a Holmes man opened the lock of the bars that locked Jaeden.

The son snorted amusedly after hearing Damian's words just now. “I’m not an old man (I am not a grandfather - grandfather )”

The son answered Damian's mouthfuls while opening his coat, and Damian chuckled as he took over the man's coat to hold it.

“He was a street fighter, remember (He's a former street fighter, remember )?”

“We’ll see about it (We'll see )” Putra's response to Damian's speech that is just a fad.

♦♦

The son and Jaeden were now standing face to face in the room where the iron bars that locked Jaeden were located.

And both of them have been given enough space to fight one-on-one by using only their physiques.

“Are you ready to die (Are you ready to die )?” triv Jaeden on the Son.

“You talk too much. Totally wasting my time (You talk too much. Too wasting my time ) –“

“*F*k you!” geram Jaeden who has positioned his fist and has moved to attack the Son.
