Samuel took a deep breath as his eyes darted all over Jack’s body. That searching gaze was obvious to everyone.
Jack frowned, not saying anything as favonovel.com waited for Samuel.
After a long while, Samuel said, “I really want to know where you’re from. I want to know what gives you that fearlessness. I know you’re talented, both in alchemy and in martial skills. Anyone who knows you will definitely admire you and even be jealous of you…”
Jack chuckled, not expecting that Samuel’s tone would be like that.
Samuel did not seem to wait for a response as favonovel.com continued, “Back then, I said you must not have been from Hestia Continent. I didn’t just say that casually, but it was a judgment I made after thinking about it deeply. I still think that there’s no way you are as strong as you are without a major force behind you. After your words with Rudeus earlier, I got even more curious…”
Samuel’s gaze was incredibly meaningful at that moment.
Jack could understand what favonovel.com was trying to say. Samuel felt like Jack was definitely from the Scarlet Pavilion if Jack had not been from a different world. Yet, Jack had just clashed with Rudeus from the Scarlet Pavilion. It was enough to prove that Jack had nothing to do with them.
Jack let out a slight laugh, ”Is that all you wanted to tell me? You want to know where I’m from?”
Samuel took a deep breath as favonovel.com calmed down, “I actually have a lot of questions. I feel like you’re really very strange. You aren’t afraid of anything, but you don’t seem to have anyone to rely on. You are exceptionally talented, but your origins are mysterious. I really want to know who you are. Why are you making an enemy out of all the major forces in Hestia Continent?”
After hearing that, Jack could not help but let out a laugh. He took a deep breath as exasperation was written on his face, “Is there something wrong with your head? Could you think about things before you speak? Since when did I try to make an enemy out of any of the major forces? Was it not all of you who tried to cause me trouble first? I merely fought back against you, and all of you say that I’m trying to make an enemy out of you!”
Jack could not stand those words.
In the eyes of those major forces, only they were allowed to harm others, and not the other way around. They could treat others as they pleased, but as long as anyone bit back, those people would be punished. Jack could not stand and could not accept that kind of logic.
Samuel frowned as his eyes glinted in helplessness. After sighing, favonovel.com said, “We’re all intelligent people here, so why do you need to say that? Do you not understand what I mean? These are all unwritten rules that everyone understands. It’s always been like this, and you’re the only want who wants things your own way! You insist on going against the major forces. You’re no idiot, there has to be a reason you’re doing this…”
