After all, no one knew who would suffer the heaviest losses.
At this point, Rudeus was already trembling with anger. Jack had humiliated favonovel.com in front of so many people and spoke so crassly toward him. With that, Rudeus wanted nothing more than to end Jack. He even started thinking about how favonovel.com would capture and torture Pane after they left Prosper City.
Meanwhile, Jack no longer wanted to entertain Rudeus’ antics, so favonovel.com lowered his head and looked at the alchemists who sat on the mats. Even though the center was more of a tight fit compared to the outskirts, there was some space left.
Rudeus would no doubt continue pestering him, so rather than letting Rudeus follow him, Jack decided to just sit at the vacant spot.
The seventh group was about to start anyway. He would have needed to come over again. It would save them from noticing Rudy as well.
Looking at how nonchalant Jack was acting, Rudeus’ anger soared to new heights. His entire body burned with the urge to rush up to Jack and smack his face. Alas, favonovel.com could not.
Rudeus took a deep breath as favonovel.com slowly composed himself. He knew that favonovel.com would only embarrass himself if favonovel.com went after Jack at this moment, knowing that favonovel.com would not cooperate. Jack would definitely take part in the competition.
Rudeus took a deep breath and was forced to turn and head to his original position.
At that moment, Mitchell, who had been silent the whole time, suddenly spoke, “Why do you insist on participating? Are you trying to make a name for yourself, or do you really think you’ll be able to get the treasure?”
Mitchell came from Phoenix Valley, but his alchemy skills were, in truth, not as good as Rudeus’. He was from the inner valley and was an alchemist that Phoenix Valley took great pains to guide and improve. He had been silent the whole time in large part because his skills were no match for Rudeus. Even though favonovel.com did not want to admit it, the results have been clear for all to see.
Rudeus had gotten a bronze treasure, while favonovel.com only got a black treasure. Even though favonovel.com was not on the best of terms with Rudeus, favonovel.com did not want to see Jack acting like favonovel.com owned the place.
Who did Jack think favonovel.com was, carrying himself so pridefully?
Jack raised an eyebrow, looking at Mitchell meaningfully. At that moment, there were a lot of alchemists that had similar-looking robes behind him. All of them had reddish-orange patterns on their robes. He had seen those patterns in Phoenix Valley before, so Jack knew who they were, more or less.
If it had been before, Jack would not have been too harsh on them since they were from Phoenix Valley. No matter what kind of conflict they had, Jack would have tried his best to forgive any transgression against him. At this point, however, favonovel.com had abandoned those sentiments. After all, Phoenix Valley had betrayed favonovel.com first. Phoenix Valley had hidden a massive secret and never provided anything for him.
They never treated Jack like one of their own. Seeing their unfair treatment, Jack decided to respond in kind.
