Timoty made his way to Jack, who started to get up from his seat.

- No, no. No Need to get up. I shall sit myself instead.

Jack listened to him, but didn’t care. With as much rage as he was feeling, staying sit when he told him to do so was but an offense!

Somewhere in his mind something about “reverse psychology” passed through as a thought, but he quickly rationalized that with an “what if he knew I would think of that?”.

In the end, being sincere was still the best strategy!

- Oh, fine then. Good evening Jack. And welcome to my Demon Kingdom!

A little bit of rage bubbled on Jack’s throat. He felt an immense desire to punch Timoty in the face right at that moment.

[- Where is she?]

- She is fine, we helped getting her out of prison and left her at home.

Jack was stunned. His imagination had created a whole scenario for what was happening. His daughter would have been held hostage by Timotys’ men, blinded and bind on some half-lit warehouse. They would threaten him with torturing her, and he would be forced to become their pawn! Worst even - some of the men would have lowly desires and…

Never would have he imagined that Timoty would instead have taken her out of prison!

What was happening?

His mind was in disarray!

As for Timoty, that is, Carlos… he was smiling on his mind, while on the game his avatar remained expressionless.

Of course, taking Christina out of prison was a bit too much to believe, but they had indeed taken her out of the police station - and she was more than happy for that!

On the real world, Dr.Hudderson showed a wry smile as well. Wouldn’t Carlos have done something earlier if he wanted to?

Christina’s whereabouts were clear for anyone to see, given they searched a bit. In fact, she hadn’t even changed her surname. Anyone with a phone book could find her under the “Hooligan” surname!

In a sense, Jack was truly fortunate for Carlos to have been the one managing the entrance and exit of people from Another World for all these years.

Had other, less scrupulous organizations, found about Jack’s position in that world and managed to lay roots in there, and he might be on a though situation indeed!

- Don’t worry, we are helping her on other ways as well. She has been very different after her husband left her and her grandmother passed away. My condolences, by the way.

Jack’s mind took another blow.

His mother had passed away? Christina had been married, and her husband left her?!

To this moment, he didn’t know if his mother was still alive or not. What about Elicia’s?

It was a fact that, somewhere deep on his mind, he expected for his mother to die at a certain point. He and Elicia were aware that these kinds of things would happen to people from the outside world.

But now he had news. Concrete news. A deep desire for knowing what was happening outside of Another World was suddenly ignited on him, and, for a moment, he indeed danced on Carlos’ palm.

Fortunately for him, his many mental resistances were able to affect even this kind of non-standard psychological attack - one that wasn’t from a skill, but used some of the neural pathways a mind attack skill would.

He took a deep breath and calmed himself.

On the real world, dr.Hudderson excused himself and left the room. No one stopped him, for that was not needed - Jack was already on the state of mind he had accorded to help Carlos achieve with him.
