Chapitre 1046: Self-deprecating Sense of Humor

"Yeah. About that. I got held up by some work."

Eren said as he looked Jason in the eyes. The latter was staring daggers at him. So the butcher chuckled before throwing his words back at him.

"Don't look at me like that. I know it is unfair to you. I really do.

But you'd have to forgive me for being cautious. I'm only doing this for my own survival. I hope you can understand."

Lightning struck and Eren got behind Jason. His kick caused Jason to fly straight toward Ivor. The Duke's son ended up lying with his face flat on the ground in front of a kneeling Ivor.

"Here. Finish him."

Eren knew that Arthur would try to investigate his son's death when the word got out. Therefore, Jason needed to be killed at Ivor's hands.

Ivor took out his dagger from storage and looked at the stunned-looking Jason who was suffering from Eren's mana invasion as well as the debuff placed on him through fatal injuries.
