The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor

Emilio took a deep breath as he paled slightly, "So you were actually very confident. That's why you made the bet against Ethan. That was why you looked down on all of us."

Fane raised an eyebrow and merely let out a faint smile. After everyone heard Emilio's words, they let out looks of realization. No wonder Fane's actions had been so hard to understand.

Insulting Ethan and betting against Ethan. No matter what anyone else said, Fane had been unfazed. At that moment, everyone had been wondering if Fane had some sort of goal in mind. It was then they realized that Fane had not regarded them as anything at all. Fane had just been incredibly confident.

Fane frowned, saying in exasperation, "I already made things very clear earlier, it's just that none of you wanted to listen. You thought I was spewing nonsense. There's nothing I could do about that."

It was then did everyone realize that Fane had definitely said that he would not have done the bet if he did not have the skills. At the time, no one believed in Fane.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

They even thought that Fane must have been crazy to say that. Now, they know that Fane was not crazy, it was them who was being ignorant. Emilio's lips twitched as his expression soured. At that moment, he did not know what to say. He felt like he was a complete clown in front of Fane. Emilio took a deep breath as his lips twitched slightly, "I'm such a joke."

When it was announced that he got third place, Emilio was actually full of disbelief. He had felt that, even if he could not get the golden treasure, he was not that bad to only get a black treasure. Now it seemed like he was not just bad in terms of skill, but in terms of evaluating others as well.

Emilio sighed as he composed himself. He turned around as he returned to his original spot somewhat despondently.

If he had lost, then he could only

accept the results as it is. He was not as much of a sore loser

compared to Ethan. No matter what, he still managed to obtain a treasure. Even if it was just a black treasure, he would at least have something to bring back with him.

Furthermore, things happened unexpectedly this time, so he would

be able to explain things if the higher-ups asked. Fane raised an eyebrow, suddenly feeling like there was a gaze on him. Fane looked up to see Nash looking at him with a complicated expression.

He was actually in a similar state as Ethan. His lips twitched and the muscles on his face were stiff. He was filled with disbelief, frustration, and anger. Nash had never expected that things would end up like that.

Fane had gotten a golden treasure, while he had gotten nothing. Compared to Fane, he was nothing. He had actually been the one to suffer a complete loss. There was no way Nash could accept that.

Nash took a deep breath as he asked with a trembling voice, "You were always just pretending. Who are you? Why..."

Nash suddenly stopped as he said that. He still had a load of questions to ask, but his reason told him that the situation would go out of control if he asked the questions out loud.

The alchemists from the other worlds were still staring right at their direction. Even if he hated Fane, he could not deny Fane's value. Just with Fane's skills, Scarlet Pavilion would happily accept Fane.

If Scarlet Pavilion's higher-ups really did so, then he would be in a difficult spot. So he forced down the anger and doubt in his heart as he stared at Fane.

Fane raised an eyebrow as he said calmly, "I'm just more talented than all of you. There's nothing else to it.
