The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor

Souza got more and more confused, feeling like there was something off about how Chris and Edward were looking at him.

It was hard to blame Souza for not understanding the situation. After all, he knew where he stood.

His skills were no threat to both men. Heck, they did not need to treat him with any sense of alarm. Yet, Souza felt like he could feel a touch of alertness in Chris and Edward's eyes, which somewhat baffled him.

Why was Chris cautious of him? What was there to be cautious of? He was the one who had to be careful about Chris, yet both men eyed him as though he posed an ominous threat. It caused Souza a great deal of confusion.

He took a step back as he looked at Chris and Edward in alarm.

Chris said lightly, "Do you think your petty tricks can fool us? You want to work with Edward to kill me before you kill Edward yourself, making you the victor!"

Souza frowned as his breathing quickened. He could not help but say, "What are you talking about? You speak as if I'm particularly strong..."

After hearing that, Chris let out a laugh of frustration. He coldly laughed as he said, "Cut the crap, why don't you. I've seen through you; there's no point in acting anymore!"

Souza was more and more confused. He said with a puzzled expression, "What kind of act am I putting up? I don't understand what you're both saying!"

Souza truly did not understand what they were saying, and the two of them had very strange expressions. He felt his heart beating quickly, feeling like he could not figure out the situation at all.

When the warriors at the viewing area heard their conversation, there were a lot of discussions.

"If I was Souza, I wouldn't understand what they're saying either. After all, he's probably thinking that Chris and Edward are acting way too strangely. "They're clearly so strong, but they're acting so cautious around him. They're even speaking with a hint of warning and alarm. It'd be so confusing!"

"I'm beginning to feel some pity for Souza. He's probably very afraid right now because he can already feel that Chris might attack him. However, he can't figure out Chris' actions."

A disciple from the Frenzied Blade Clan said, "I pity Souza. He doesn't know what's happening at all. If he knew, he'd definitely cry out that he was framed. If he really did have the skills, Souza would've let everyone know, considering how he is. Would he have hidden his powers?"

A warrior from White Marsh Continent said, "If I was Chris, that'd be my conclusion, too. I would've thought that Souza was the dark horse. After all, after eliminating everyone else, Souza and Fane are the only ones left.

"Without looking at Fane's actions through the massive scroll, I would never have guessed that Fane is this strong. Furthermore, Chris hates Fane so much. He's naturally proud, so even if he found some clues, there's no way he'd admit to how strong Fane is!"

"You're right. He had access to look at everything so we know that Fane is the secret genius t. Chris and the others only saw the corpses and don't know anything else. On top of that, they had a fixed opinion of Fane, so they automatically eliminated Fane from their consideration and were left with Souza!"

"That's right. No matter what Souza says, Chris and Edward would think that he's lying. The more confused Souza acts, the more the two of them will believe their judgment!"This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
