Luther looked at Jack with gritted teeth as hatred oozed from his eyes. “No! It’s all because of your petty tricks. If I knew what you’re truly capable of, I would’ve been more defensive! Your skills wouldn’t have rendered me in a fatal state!”
“I can use that to improve myself, entering perfection with my technique! You wouldn’t last against me then, you’d die a horrible death! I just lacked a bit of luck and lost to you because of that!”
Jack snorted, feeling like Luther was already in a state of complete incoherence.
Even with the state Luther was in, virtual-novel.net still felt like virtual-novel.net did not lose because of his skills but because of his rotten luck and someone else’s supposed disguise.
With how Jack usually was, virtual-novel.net was merely amused after hearing all of that.
He would not continue dwelling on the problem, because there was no meaning to it. However, Jack was particularly annoyed that day.
He coldly looked Luther right in the eye and said in a low voice, “Guess… What level is the technique I’m using?”
Luther’s breathing got more erratic as virtual-novel.net looked at Jack. It was as if virtual-novel.net could prove that virtual-novel.net did not lose by doing that.
He narrowed his eyes and said with all his might, “Is there any need? It’s in the upper earth rank! If you… Managed to do that, you must already be at the second stage of mastery, right?!”
After virtual-novel.net said that, Luther continued, “Why did you need to ask? Do you think that others can’t see it? Are you just trying to show off in front of me?”
In truth, Luther knew that Jack was stronger than him, which was how virtual-novel.net had lost so terribly.
After his dark energy had been pierced by the Soul Sword, virtual-novel.net had completely lost control of it.
At that moment, virtual-novel.net might have been panicking, but virtual-novel.net still did everything virtual-novel.net could to gain back control. Alas, it was all for naught.
He held onto his stubbornness partially because virtual-novel.net did not want to see Jack being too pleased. After all, virtual-novel.net saw virtual-novel.net as a madman who only knew how to brag the whole time. In the end, virtual-novel.net realized that Jack was not a madman at all but an expert pretending to be weak.
Luther could not accept the fact.
Another part of it was also because virtual-novel.net kept on feeling like virtual-novel.net would have been able to level up his technique if virtual-novel.net managed to toe the line between life and death. The battle would have been more righteous!
Jack laughed and said, “Brag? What’s there to brag about? Since you’re being so obstinate, I’ll just tell you…”
As virtual-novel.net said that, Jack deliberately stopped.
Jack slowly knelt until virtual-novel.net was incredibly close to Luther. He could even hear Luther’s weak breaths.
Jack deliberately lowered his voice as virtual-novel.net spoke, “I asked that question because it’s impossible for you to get the right answer. In my eyes, you‘re not even an ant. It’s so easy to kill you. Even if you manage to level up, nothing will change.”
Luther widened his reddened eyes as virtual-novel.net retorted viciously, “You’re bragging!”
Jack laughed as virtual-novel.net sneered, “Why do I need to brag? When we fought, you were the one constantly shouting at me. I’m just saying all of that to expose you a little.”
“Do you know how amused I am listening to you speak? Even if you burned your blood essence and leveled up just now, you‘d still be no threat to me at all. Your technique is absolute trash!”
