Chapter 170: Test for jack

Jack, who had already been expecting this question for a long time, felt his heart start to beat fast with excitement. Outwardly, he didn’t show anything and stayed silent for a few moments before saying,

"If that’s what my father-in-law wants, I will gladly accept their challenge."

Shigeru laughed to himself lightly. This young man is really a player, just like the information mentioned about him.

With his capability, he is the most suitable person to control those troublesome girls in the family. They are always causing trouble and headaches for me.

They have become really uncontrollable these years. If left alone, they will definitely follow the route of the retired old ladies in the family.

A large family like ours should always be under the control of the family head. If uncontrollable things like this exist in the clan, they must be dealt with soon.

But I will not give away our family women easily. Otherwise, it will look cheap and easily obtainable. What if the young man does not value them in the future and breaks their hearts?

Even though he disliked those troublesome girls in the family, he would not shortchange them in important matters like this. After all, he was their elder and the family head.

So he prepared a test for the young man. If he accepted and passed this difficult test, then he could take all those women under him.

Because of the preparation for this test, it was delayed to invite the young man to the family sooner.

Shigeru coughed lightly and said,

"Young man, it is not that easy to get our family women. If you want to get them, then you have to pass my challenge and test.

Only then will you be allowed to take them as your women."

Jack pondered for a moment and thought to himself, whatever the test is, I will pass it. I’m going to turn all these proud women into my personal breeding sluts.

He controlled his rising urge at that time and accepted the test issued by his father-in-law.

"I will accept it and pass it with my own ability."

Shigeru, when he heard the confident words of his son-in-law, said,

"Good, very good. Then you go and stay with my daughter. I will call upon you after I take care of some matters.

The test will take place in an abandoned mine. I will take you there with my people when the time comes."

Jack gave a nod, accepted the arrangements, and went to stay with Selena.

The matter of Isabella’s and Selena’s husband visiting the family residence and meeting the family head had already spread quickly among the family members in the residence.

Especially some enthusiastic female members had already become excited and decided to challenge the man and clear the doubts in their hearts, whether he was truly as skilled as the rumours said and able to defeat both sisters.

They started to pester the family head about challenging Jack to a duel.

After being continuously pestered by these women in the family for some time, Shigeru became irritated and annoyed.

He told them about the test and challenge he had arranged for Jack and that if he could pass the test, he would have the right to challenge all of them and make them his women.

When the female cousins and female relatives of both Isabella and Selena heard this news from the family head, everyone started itching to fight. But once again, they were calmed down by him and sent away.

He sat there silently for a while and lamented to himself.

"It felt like a storm had passed. Even the elderly ladies in the family started pestering me for information.

I should soon conduct the test and solve the problem of these unruly and troublesome people."

The preparation was carried out inside the abandoned mine. Shigeru really spent a good amount preparing this test, and he also invited many trap-setting experts to do the work inside the abandoned mine.

Soon everything was prepared. Shigeru invited Jack to the place where the old abandoned mine was located.

Shigeru and Jack travelled in the same vehicle, with secret guards of the Akechi family protecting them from all sides.

When they arrived at the location, Shigeru looked at Jack, who was sitting beside him quietly as if this whole matter happening before him was not related to him in the slightest.

"Young man, we have arrived at the location of your test."

He gave a scrutinising look at Jack’s face. He wanted to see any change of expression or panic appear.

But nothing happened. The calmness on his face never changed in the slightest.

Shigeru, seeing the young man like this, gave an approving nod and said,

"Even though you are skilled in martial arts, I am warning you now. This test will be extremely difficult, dangerous, and life-threatening. So if you want to stop taking it, we can return to the residence. Take it as if nothing happened. I will never mention your withdrawal in the future."

He pulled a remote from his pocket and pressed the button. Soon, the sound of arrows whistling and bombs exploding echoed in front of them in the distance at the place he had prepared to show him a sample of what would be inside the test.

"This was just a sample. Once you enter the cave, there will be all kinds of traps set up inside. Only a person proficient in all kinds of old and advanced weapons and also extremely skilled in martial arts can pass this test."

After Shigeru said everything he wanted, he looked at Jack intently and watched his every reaction carefully.

Because this was also a kind of test. If the young man accepted the challenge without going back on his word,

then in the future, he could place more trust in him and hand him some important family affairs to handle on his own.

Even if he faced life-threatening danger inside the mine, he had his ways to rescue him unscathed. The only matter was whether he was true to his word or not.

The bravery and upright character of this young man before him were being tested now.
