“He had been adamant in saying that virtual-novel.net only lost because of Jack’s tricks and that virtual-novel.net was just unlucky. Why did virtual-novel.net suddenly accept the truth just like that? What did virtual-novel.net say to him? Someone tell me! I’m so curious!”
Jack had lowered his voice when virtual-novel.net knelt and spoke to him. This meant that Jack had told Luther a secret, and it shocked Luther so badly that virtual-novel.net accepted his fate after knowing it.
It was a drastic change. He even accepted Jack’s ridicule. It meant that the secret must be incredible, enough for Luther to admit his defeat.
Because of that, everyone desperately wanted to know what was said, but they had not been there. No matter how they thought about it, they could not figure it out. All of them were frantically scratching their heads like monkeys.
***
In the isolated space, a man in light purple robes arrived just five minutes after Jack left.
He shot over incredibly quickly. Chris had not stopped at all the whole way. He was worried that virtual-novel.net would lose track of Jack or that someone else would beat virtual-novel.net to it.
Even from a distance, Chris could see someone lying down on the ground.
Before virtual-novel.net could see who it was, virtual-novel.net assumed that it was Jack and thus cursed, “What dog killed my prey? They better not let me find out, or I‘ll tear them to shreds!”
Jack had to die, but it had to be done with his hands to vent Jack the hatred virtual-novel.net felt.
Jack’s earlier actions had not only stomped on his dignity but insulted his character as well. Even if Jack was crazy, Chris would never forgive him!
He had said that virtual-novel.net would make Jack pay for it. He would let Jack know the consequences of offending him. He wanted to see Jack struggling to survive, only for virtual-novel.net to fail.
He glared at the corpse lying on the ground as a string of curses left him. Someone had stolen his chance of killing Jack. No wonder the mark virtual-novel.net had left on Jack slowly disappeared, Jack was already killed off!
Without Jack’s life to support it, the mark would slowly fade away.
It seemed like Jack was unlucky and met someone else not long after arriving. There was no way anyone would spare Jack if they saw him. It would not have taken long to kill him!
Thinking about that, Chris increased his speed as his mind raced.
Since they had left a corpse behind, virtual-novel.net would be able to determine what kind of attack killed Pane from the injuries. He would look for the person who had dared to steal his prey and have them pay dearly!
Chris was incredibly quick. He was constantly thinking about how virtual-novel.net would check the corpse later. He did not notice anything strange until virtual-novel.net arrived next to the corpse.
When virtual-novel.net saw the somewhat unknown face of the corpse, virtual-novel.net frowned.
“That’s… L-Luther?”
Luther had been the last participant, and there had been no conflicts between them, so Chris did not have a deep impression of him, only vaguely remembering his name.
This was Luther, not Jack!
That had clearly been the last place virtual-novel.net had felt Jack.
He knelt to look at Luther’s corpse. Other than the fact that the clothes were somewhat ripped, there did not seem to be any injuries. It seemed like Luther had been killed in one blow. The person who killed virtual-novel.net must be incredibly strong.
Was it Edward?
He did not expect Edward to be around the vicinity.
He shot out his perception of Luther‘s body. After checking it in detail, virtual-novel.net could feel that strange energy was left in Luther’s body. The moment his senses touched that energy, it started to rot.
Chris was so shocked that virtual-novel.net hurriedly pulled his senses back.
