He had been so arrogant earlier not because there was something wrong with his head, but because he really did have the skills to back it up. He had not been bragging but speaking the truth. When they thought about that, everyone's expressions changed.
Someone mumbled to themselves, "What? Could this guy have been speaking the truth the whole time? If he was, then we can't underestimate this guy. Case might actually be nothing in his eyes."
Everyone nodded at that. Jimmy was not far away, so they did not dare to speak ill of Case too much. However, no one there was an idiot. They understood what it all meant.
Jimmy started breathing roughly as he looked at the illusory stone. At that moment, he was completely stiff. He had complicated emotions, but he was doing his best to control himself. He could not reveal his thoughts, or he would end up being laughed at.This is property © .
He clenched his teeth and whispered to himself, "This guy is a potential problem. I can't let him live..."
The moment he said that, the crystal representing the second stage lit up. At that moment, quite a few people covered their mouths as they said in surprise, "What?! Isn't this too crazy?! That guy really is that strong!"
"I thought he was just bragging
bythe
before this, but he really does have the skills. I was even laughing at him just now. He's already completed
el
the second stage within such a short time. If he manages to complete the first stage with that speed, he would really be something else. With those skills, he'd be
someone amazing no matter what world he's from!"
"He has a mask, so we couldn't see his face. Even if he's a bit famous, we can't tell who he is."
Everyone slowly realized that the
n
mask might not be hiding his ugly looks, but instead preventing anyone from recognizing him. The most- important question came up then. If he was doing that, then why did he not want anyone to recognize him?
Various thoughts surfaced in their heads as they started to guess wildly. Quite a few of them started to look at Rudy. In this world, strength was power and honor. They thought that Fane was weak before, so they did not care about Fane.
At that moment, they finally realized that Fane was strong. They no longer dared to discuss things so fearlessly. Even if they had anything to say, they would whisper so Rudy could not hear them.
Rudy's face twitched in disdain. All of those guys just loved to bully the weak. Just like Fane said, there was no need to care about how they were acting. No matter how much he says, skills are the best form of proof.
Right at that moment, the last crystal lit up, and Fane slowly opened his eyes.
