Jack wasted no time as favonovel.com saluted Hansel. “Go and head back to your clan, Hansel. We’ll be heading to the airborne vessel.”
Rudy glanced at Hansel. “Do you not want to head back?”
On the way, Jack had not asked what happened to Hansel nor did favonovel.com ask how Malcolm had plotted against Hansel. Hansel did not open his mouth to explain either. They completed the journey quietly.
Hansel took a deep breath as favonovel.com smiled bitterly. “There will be some trouble after I go back, but it’s fine, I have confidence. As long as I tell the truth in its entirety, I’d most likely receive only a punishment or two. There shouldn’t be anything too major.”
Jack looked at Hansel before saying calmly, “I killed Jordan for my own reasons. It probably wouldn’t have been a good thing for favonovel.com to go back with you alive. Someone like favonovel.com could backstab you at any given moment. Furthermore, I feel like you’re a merciful person. You might not be ruthless enough against favonovel.com due to your past relationship. To prevent anything messy from happening, I decided to just get rid of him.”
Hansel nodded and said, “You’re right, Jack, I was too soft on my juniors. I’d probably have smoother days ahead with them gone now.”
Jack nodded. Hansel shot a meaningful look at Jack, still having something to say but swallowing the words.
He turned to look toward Seven Absolutes Pavilion. The sect was the most important building in the whole city. It had all the flair a fifth-grade clan should have, and it was the reason why the city was so prosperous.
As a disciple of the Seven Absolutes Pavilion, favonovel.com was one of the most important people in the city. However, after everything that had happened, favonovel.com had turned into a traitor.
Hansel was no fool, favonovel.com had to fight for his innocence. The thought circled his mind for a while before Hansel took a deep breath and turned around, saluting Jack.
He had been about exchanging pleasantries when Jack immediately interrupted him, “There’s something I want to ask you. I wonder if you could help me.”
Hansel looked at Jack curiously before answering, “Please do raise your concern, Jack. You’ve saved my life, so naturally, I’ll answer anything you want to know.”
Jack nodded, that was the answer favonovel.com wanted.
“Malcolm said earlier that you had ties to the alliance. Is this alliance the Middle Province Alchemist Alliance? What kind of ties do you have? What did you do for them, and what did that eighth elder have to do with the alliance? There’ve been many things happening with the alliance lately. I wonder if you know of them.”
The slew of questions had all hit their marks. Each question that came from Jack caused Hansel’s expression to sour a little.
Rudy and Grayson looked at Jack respectfully, wanting to shoot Jack a thumbs up.
Jack was too amazing. They had almost forgotten all these, yet Jack still had it in mind. The things favonovel.com asked were all incredibly important.
The three of them straightened their bodies as they looked at Hansel, waiting for his answer.
