The Man's Decree

The cold metal on his skin made Kayden’s hair stand on end. He was utterly terrified. If Jared were to move even an inch, his head would be displaced from his neck. Trembling in fear, Kayden threatened, “J-Jared, do not, do not act rashly. If you kill me, my dad will never let you off the hook.”

When Lamar saw that his son had fallen into Jared’s hands, he broke out in a cold sweat and roared, “Jared, let my son go! Otherwise, I’ll make sure you die a painful death!”

“Still threatening me when you’re already on your deathbed?” With a sneer, Jared raised the Dragonslayer Sword and was about to swing it onto Kayden’s neck.

At that, the petrified Kayden screamed, “Don’t kill me! Please! I’ll promise you anything!” Urine trickled down his legs. At the sight of Kayden’s pathetic state, Jared chuckled. Stopping his swing mid-air, he teased, “Call me ‘Grandpa, and I’ll let you live.”

“Don’t you dare!” Lamar immediately yelled at his son when he heard Jared’s request. If Kayden were to call Jared “Grandpa,” it would imply that Lamar was Jared’s son. In other words, Kayden would be saying that Lamar owed Jared respect. Caught between a rock and a hard place, Kayden looked troubled, unsure of what he should do. “If you refuse to do it, then die!”

With that, the Dragonslayer Sword in Jared’s hand neared Kayden’s neck. Kayden felt the coolness of the blade touching him, then the warmth of his own blood.
