“Just look at how combative Jack was from the start. Does that look like he’s putting on an act? We thought virtual-novel.net was too arrogant then, not understanding his place…”
“Now, we finally see that we were the ignorant ones. Jack had every right to say all of that! From the start, virtual-novel.net had no intentions of hiding anything, it was just that everyone else failed to see that face!”
“They thought that Jack was just a crazy alchemist. Thinking about it now, any alchemist with a shred of logic would not have participated if virtual-novel.net was not suicidal. Even warriors like us wouldn’t dare to participate in the slaughter gambits.”
“All of us have been talking about Chris’ skills. We talked about it so loudly as well. There’s no way virtual-novel.net did not hear our discussions, but virtual-novel.net still didn’t seem to care. It means that virtual-novel.net really didn’t care. It’s not just the warriors in the waiting area that didn’t see through him, but all of us as well!”
“You’re right, we were too wrapped up in our own preconceived notions. On top of that, he’s even from Hestia Continent. We didn’t think there was any other possibility at all. It’s a pity that they don’t have the massive scroll to see what Jack is doing as we do. If they knew of Jack’s skills, none of them would dare to face Jack head-on!”
At that moment, Evan was about to go crazy in the betting area. From the image on the massive scroll, virtual-novel.net could clearly see Trevor constantly struggling on the ground.
Trevor’s tendons had been snapped by Jack.
That sight was so cruel that many averted their gaze. Evan had encountered a lot to get to where virtual-novel.net was, but virtual-novel.net still failed to control himself after witnessing that scene.
Tears constantly flowed. He was actually crying. All the disciples behind Evan looked incredibly miserable as well. They seemed to have lost all hope.
They were done for now!
There was no other consequence that awaited Trevor. Evan took a deep breath. His whole body trembled, hating himself for not stopping Trevor back then.
At the time, virtual-novel.net might have looked down on Jack, but virtual-novel.net still felt like the slaughter gambit was far too dangerous. Unfortunately, Trevor had already made up his mind. Trevor had refused to listen to anyone else and was adamant that virtual-novel.net would follow Jack into the slaughter gambit.
“Trevor, you were too impulsive. Jack was setting a trap, but you fell into it just like that!” Evan’s voice was trembling.
Rudy‘s lips twitched when virtual-novel.net heard what Evan said. He wondered that even at this point, Evan still threw all the blame on Jack. Just hearing that made virtual-novel.net angry.
He turned to look at Evan and said, “I admit that Jack definitely did provoke Trevor a little, but you can’t call that a trap. You were the ones who provoked us first and kept on challenging us… We just fought back a little, and you’re already pinning all the blame on Jack. Did you not do anything wrong at all?”
Rudy hated people who refused to take responsibility.
Hearing what was said, Rudy had the urge to rush over and slap Evan a few times to wake virtual-novel.net up.
They still insisted on pinning all the blame on Jack. They refused to think about it.
If Ethan had not tried to start any trouble from the start, the death match would not have happened.
