The Bodyguard System

Chapter 19: Plan Failed



Sylvia had already expected that Scarlet was not going to agree. So, she turned her atttion and looked at Jad. "Do you want to spar with me?" She asked with a hint of expectation in her eyes.

Jad was not expecting that Sylvia was going to ask to fight with him. To say the truth, he really did want to test out the full abilities of the beginner level combat skills. But right now, it was definitely not the time for that.

Additionally, just from the fact that Scarlet seemed to be afraid of this lady called Sylvia, she definitely wasn't easy to handle. Since that was the case, it was better for him not to gage her that much. Otherwise, he might d up embarrassing himself.

So in the d, he shook his head and responded, "I don't think that is good, right? I need to be in my full condition in order to carry out my duty starting tomorrow."

Jad had just looked for an excuse to use in order to refuse Sylvia. Of course, he had to go and adapt to his strgth, know his limits first, before gaging in any fight. Otherwise, he might d up blanching himself in a fight that he would not be able to win.

Wh Sylvia heard what Jad had said, he could not help but purse her lips. How could she not tell that Jad was simply trying to give an excuse here, so that he could not fight against her?

To say the truth, she had already be bored here, and was looking forward to a thrill, fighting someone like Jad. She had se that Jad possessed quite some skills, and it seemed that he was holding back by a good margin wh fighting against Scarlet.

She wanted to know the limits that this guy possessed, and for that reason, she was quite excited to fight against him.

But in any case, since the other party did not want to fight, th there was no need for her to force things. It was always good to fight against a person who wanted to fight against her, and only that way would she be able to gain something.

But before Sylvia could say anything, Scarlet who was still within the ring looked at Jad. Th, she thought of something and said, "What do you mean by being in a good condition tomorrow? You can just fight, and you'll be in good shape the momt that you wake up tomorrow morning. After all, how many hours are there until eving of today?"

Scarlet had already realized that it was impossible for her to be able to deal with Jad personally. And since there was an opportunity here, she had to take it. She understood the strgth that Sylvia possessed, and she believed that Sylvia was definitely capable of dealing with this guy.

If Sylvia actually managed to beat up this guy quite well, perhaps he would be embarrassed to stay here, and would decide to leave. That was something that she was looking forward to.

Moreover, she was definitely not happy about the fact that despite all the skills that she possessed, she was actually not capable of dealing with Jad. Although she had managed to hit him once, but that seemed to be out of luck, and due to the fact that Jad was not taking her seriously.

Wh Jad heard Scarlet, he could not help but curse in his heart siltly. This lady was always trying to look for trouble for him, and since she was not capable of dealing with him, she was actually trying to borrow a knife here.

"Leave it at that. Since he doesn't want to fight, it is definitely not going to be good if he fights under coercion. I guess we will fight next time that Scarlet will be free." Sylvia waved her hand as she said those words.

Completely differt from Scarlet, she did not want to fight against Jad simply because she wanted to teach him a lesson, but instead, she wanted to have a differt experice of fighting another person.

But since he was not willing, it was not like she was going to use her authority to force him to fight her. Moreover, what he had said kind of made sse. If she accidtally injured him, he would definitely not be in a good condition to be able to take care of Scarlet the following day.

Scarlett was of course not happy about the fact that Sylvia was also not willing to push for a fight betwe the two of them. But since Sylvia was not willing, there was nothing that she could do. She could only look at Jad restfully, before she left the ring, and the underg basemt.

Jad also did not stay here, and immediately left. He had to deal with the information that he had be giv the momt that the beginner combat skills were granted to him.

Sylvia looked at his departing back and thought to herself, 'I do wonder what kind of backg this guy possesses. To say the truth, it seems that he is quite more skillful as compared to many of the bodyguards that have be hired by the family. But ev th, he is quite young as compared to them.'

In the d, Sylvia shook her head and decided to continue training on her own. There was nothing that she could do for now, considering that she did not have a sparring partner. She could only depd on herself to improve.

After Jad left the gym that was located in the main mansion, he immediately wt back to his room. After that, he began going through the information that he had received.

The more he read the information, the more amazed he became. He had not expected that ev the beginner level combat skills would actually be so amazing.

Th what about the next levels that came after the beginning level? How awesome would he be if he managed to get those skills?

[The host doesn't have to worry much about the skills that he will be granted by the system. The categorization of the system is a level higher as compared to the categorization used by the humans in this world.]

[According to the system's calculations, the beginner level combat skills should be about the advanced level skills of this world.]

Jad was immediately amazed after hearing that. It seemed that wherever this system came from, it was definitely from a higher level as compared to the human race in this world. But this was to be expected considering how powerful the system was.

Having already expericed the befits of the system, Jad could not help but look forward to ev more befits. At this momt, he was wondering what kind of reward he was going to receive after completing the survival mission that was going to d after an tire week.

But in any case, he hoped that it was going to be good. At this rate, if he managed to get a mission on a daily basis, and managed to complete it and receive the rewards from the system, he was definitely going to be invincible in this world, right?

Just as Jad was getting excited about the future, another prompt appeared in front of him.

[The host should understand that despite the fact that he is going to be assisted by the system in order to get stronger, that does not imply that there are no dangers in this world.]

[Some dangers are hidd, and not everything that you see is all that this world possesses.]

Immediately after that final notification, the system did not say anything else and remained silt. But ev th, the excitemt that Jad was possessing before had dissipated. This was a warning from the system, implying that ev if he got stronger, that implied that there might be someone else that was stronger than he was.

For example, ev if he was good at fighting, if somebody came with a gun and shot him, he would definitely not be able to survive. And ev if he was capable of dodging the bullets, could he dodge a bomb that possessed a wide explosion magnitude?

Thinking of this, Jad could not help but feel a chill running down his spine. At this momt, he realized that no matter how strong he was, he had to play low-key.

Otherwise, if he attracted too much atttion, he might d up getting killed without ev knowing how he had died. After all, not every form of atttion was beficial to a person, considering that he might d up attracting the wrong kind of atttion.

Jad relaxed. Due to the injection or the beginner level combat skills into his body, he had sweat a little. And with that, Jad decided to go ahead and take another shower. After that, he changed into another pair of casual clothes, a blue jeans and a gre t-shirt.

Th, he relaxed in the room, hoping that another mission would suddly pop up in front of him. At the same time, he just hoped that Scarlet would not start looking for trouble with him. Otherwise, if he lost this job, he was definitely going to lose a good opportunity to be able to get stronger.

As Jad was relaxing, in the Williams mansion that was located in the very western part of the city, there was a meeting that was going on.

"We have to take care of the Johnsons as soon as possible. If they continue existing within this city, they will definitely hinder our expansion. Moreover, the mission that we have be giv will definitely not be able to succeed if there is another person that can compete with us." A middle aged man with long beards stated with a solemn expression.
