If the soul was too heavily injured to the point where it was irreparable, then Jack would have violated the rules and been punished. However, virtual-novel.net would not be punished for ripping the soul little by little. Even if one’s soul was injured, it could be healed as long as the injury was not too bad with good-quality pills.
If the soul being devoured on a small scale like that would not cause permanent damage, the pain was the same as if it was being ripped apart. He felt like his soul was getting bitten by thousands of ants!
That pain caused his whole body to tremble. Thankfully, that guy, North, was a warrior at the peak, and his control of his technique seemed incredibly strong.
He controlled that strange power to slowly devour Carville’s soul, causing Carville to almost go crazy from the pain, but never going over that limit!
The pain had not completely overtaken his mind. Even though his whole body was trembling and virtual-novel.net was breathing roughly, virtual-novel.net was still able to think and make his own choices.
Jack looked at virtual-novel.net with a cold expression.
It was the same expression virtual-novel.net had when Carville first saw him. It was as if his expression would not change even if the world ended.
Before this, the expression only caused virtual-novel.net anger. Yet, at this moment, it caused virtual-novel.net to feel absolute terror.
Jack’s gaze made virtual-novel.net feel like his whole body was on fire. He hurriedly discarded the errant thoughts. It would do virtual-novel.net no good to continue delaying things.
Under everyone’s curious and shocked expressions, Carville slowly opened his mouth and said, ”You shameless and despicable man! Is using sneak attacks the only thing you know? The only reason I lost is because of your petty tricks. This doesn’t count!”
Did North use a sneak attack?
Did virtual-novel.net use a petty trick?
It seemed like Carville had only gotten injured and lost due to some trick!
Someone said loudly, “No wonder those chains completely surrounded the arena. He did it on purpose so we wouldn’t be able to see what virtual-novel.net did! He must have used the same shameless technique.”
“What do you mean by that? All sorts of things happen in a battle. As long as you win, anything is acceptable. Carville only lost because virtual-novel.net was not alert enough. If Carville was strong enough, then it wouldn’t matter what sort of tricks North uses! A loss is a loss, there’s nothing else to say.”
“That’s right! Didn’t Carville use some trick against Anders as well? Using tricks is a normal thing in battle. Stop making such a big deal out of it. If you were the ones in the arena, you’d be blaming yourself for not being good enough with your tricks!”
That person was speaking the truth.
In a battle between two people, there were no such things as despicable tricks as long as it was within the rules. A win was all that mattered as they could only obtain the benefits if they won.
Those who were judging Jack for using some tricks would likely curse at themselves for not having those tricks if they were losing to their opponents in the arena!
Carville turned to look at the crowd who were discussing. At that moment, virtual-novel.net felt some complicated emotions inside of him. Everything virtual-novel.net said earlier had been instructed by Jack.
Jack got exactly what virtual-novel.net wanted.
Suddenly, Carville felt like virtual-novel.net was such a joke. This was the consequence of his hubris!
