"Just shut your mouths," hissed Jack, his tone mature.
His single command immediately ceased the argument.
Lourain looked at Jack apprehensively, worried that Jack would bring up what happened before. After all, he had
been rude to him before they entered the array. He did not even dare to think about what he had said before.
He could say everything he did with conviction in front of regular warriors from third-grade worlds without any
worry. However, the situation was different.
Jack was no ordinary warrior; he stood at the top of the food chain.
Not only at the peak of third-grade worlds, but the absolute one, including second-grade worlds. Jack was probably
one of the five or three strongest warriors in the Whirling World.
Someone as horrifyingly strong as that was someone he would not even dare to say anything in front of, let alone
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtoffend. Not only had he run his mouth, but he was harsh with his words as well. Lourain had offended Jack, and
knowing this, he felt like dying.
Jack turned to look at Lourain. "Do you think everything will resolve on its own when you're hiding?"
Lourain trembled in terror and looked down at his feet. At that moment, his whole body was tense. He shrunk
backward, but he did not dare to move too much.
He was like a tortoise hiding in its shell, and the mere sight was amusing. Jack remembered how arrogant he was
before they entered the Seven Deaths Array.
He complained that the warriors from third-grade worlds were dragging him down and mocking him and Marth.
He held no reservations about his word choice back then, but at this moment, not a shred of his arrogance
remained.
Jack had been forced to provoke Lourain just for the sake of stopping Lourain from wasting time. Yet, that earlier
aura of his was completely gone.
Lourain knew that things would go the opposite way of where he wanted them if he acted the fool. He could not
even muster up the courage to fight back at that moment.
Thus, he muttered, "Sir, please show some mercy. Just think of me as a crazy person. I didn't mean what I said
earlier! If I had known you were so strong, I wouldn't run my mouth so foolishly. You're probably wearing the mask
because you don't want anyone to recognize you. You must be someone incredibly strong and well-known. If you
hadn't had the mask on, I would've never dared..."
Lourain was quite choked up as he said that, looking like he was about to cry at any moment.
Marth's quirked lips twitched wordlessly.
He laughed and said, "You're an amazing actor, Lourain! I have to admit that I underestimated you before this. Not
only is your mouth quite smooth, but you can act quite well. I really admire you!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLourain suddenly looked up and glared at Marth like a mad dog. He looked like he was about to bite Marth's throat
at any moment.
Jack's lips curled up at the sight. Nonetheless, he did not plan on wasting any more time.
He wasted so much energy to silence Lourain and have that fool follow him into the Seven Deaths Array, so he
would not let Lourain cause him trouble inside. After all, he did not know if he would break any rules if he attacked
Lourain.
He would need to wait until everything was done before he made a move.
He told Lourain before that he would remember everything Lourain said. He had not been joking.
Jack smirked calmly. "Enough... I don't want to waste any more time. We'll talk after we get out."
After he said that, the three of them advanced.
The earlier battle had moved them around quite a lot, so he did not know how many steps they had taken. He
would have to take things one step at a time.
