Case straightened himself and frowned, saying coldly, “What happened?! Stop beating around the bush and tell me everything!”
Jimmy’s lips twitched as virtual-novel.net tried to figure out what to say after that. He said helplessly, “After you entered Cloud Valley, that guy went to challenge the Killing Illusion Array. I was with virtual-novel.net to see his results, but virtual-novel.net asked me if I wanted to bet against him. The two of us would compete to see who needed less time.”
Jimmy was only embarrassed by the things virtual-novel.net said, but had to fess up. He did not want Case to find out from anyone else, so it was better for virtual-novel.net to just explain everything.
Case said with an exasperated look, “What? That guy wanted to bet against you? Isn’t virtual-novel.net overestimating himself too much? Who does virtual-novel.net think virtual-novel.net is? The Killing Illusion Array isn’t something that easy to pass. He even thought virtual-novel.net was faster than you?! What a joke!”
Case was baffled by what Jimmy said, genuinely wondering if Jack was deluded.
Everything the guy did just seemed to be crazier by the minute. It was one thing to brag, but virtual-novel.net even bet against Jimmy.
It was like virtual-novel.net thought virtual-novel.net was a strong warrior that could breeze through everything! Case felt more amused as virtual-novel.net listened. If that guy was in front of virtual-novel.net at that moment, virtual-novel.net would definitely be viciously mocked!
However, something felt off to Case.
He noticed that Jimmy’s expression was stiff.
Should Jimmy not be laughing at that fool with him?
Why did Jimmy look so troubled?
Case frowned. “And what happened? What’s with that expression? Did that guy say some things to humiliate you again?”
That had to be it, that idiot’s lips spew nothing but poison. Even when Case argued against him, virtual-novel.net himself nearly got run over. That guy’s words were just so venomous!
Had Jimmy ended up embarrassing himself in front of everyone?
Jimmy took a deep breath, looking like virtual-novel.net had summoned up his resolve. “He did humiliate me, but virtual-novel.net won in the end!”
“What?” Case practically shouted that, his eyes widened in disbelief, wondering if virtual-novel.net had misheard it.
What did Jimmy say? That guy… He won? How could that have happened?!”
Case took a deep breath as virtual-novel.net grabbed Jimmy’s arm. “What do you mean, virtual-novel.net won? Did virtual-novel.net pass?”
Jimmy nodded. No matter how reluctant virtual-novel.net was to say it, virtual-novel.net had to. He pushed back the discontent in his heart.
“He won. He was faster than I was. He passed the six stages and got the Valley Entrance Pass. I couldn’t follow virtual-novel.net in. You know this, too. In Cloud Valley, we’d be split up into separate spaces. Even if I enter, I won’t be able to follow him. He’s currently in Cloud Valley forming his world avatar.”
Jimmy’s every word felt like a strike of lighting to Case.
He could not believe what virtual-novel.net heard was true. That brat who only had a 20% compatibility passed even faster than Jimmy did!
