The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor



Case straightened himself and frowned, saying coldly, "What happened?! Stop beating around the bush and tell me everything!"

Jimmy's lips twitched as he tried to figure out what to say after that. He said helplessly, "After you entered Cloud Valley, that guy went to challenge the Killing Illusion Array. I was with him to see his results, but he asked me if I wanted to bet against him. The two of us would compete to see who needed less time."

Jimmy was only embarrassed by the things he said, but had to fess up. He did not want Case to find out from anyone else, so it was better for him to just explain everything.

Case said with an exasperated look, "What? That guy wanted to bet against you? Isn't he overestimating himself too much? Who does he think he is? The Killing Illusion Array isn't something that easy to pass. He even thought he was faster than you?! What a joke!"

Case was baffled by what Jimmy said, genuinely wondering if Fane was deluded. Everything the guy did just seemed to be crazier by the minute. It was one thing to brag, but he even bet against Jimmy.

It was like he thought he was a strong warrior that could breeze through everything! Case felt more amused as he listened. If that guy was in front of him at that moment, he would definitely be viciously mocked!

However, something felt...off to Case.

He noticed that Jimmy's expression was stiff. Should Jimmy not be laughing at that fool with him? Why did Jimmy look so troubled?

Case frowned. "And what happened? What's with that expression? Did that guy say some things to humiliate you again?"

That had to be it; that idiot's lips

spew nothing but poison. Even when Case argued against him, he himself nearly got run over. That guy's words were just so venomous! Had Jimmy ended up embarrassing himself in front of everyone?

Jimmy took a deep breath, looking like he had summoned up his resolve. "He did humiliate me, but he won in the end!"

"What?" Case practically shouted that. His eyes widened in disbelief, wondering if he had misheard it.

What did Jimmy say? That guy...won? How could that have happened?!

Case took a deep breath as he grabbed Jimmy's arm. "What do you mean, he won? Did he pass?"

Jimmy nodded. No matter how reluctant he was to say it, he had to. He pushed back the discontent in his heart.

"He won. He was faster than I was.

He passed the six stages and got the Valley Entrance Pass. I couldn't follow him in. You know this, too. In Cloud Valley, we'd be split up into separate spaces. Even if I enter, I won't be able to follow him. He's currently in Cloud Valley forming his world avatar."

Jimmy's every word felt like a strike of lighting to Case. He could not believe what he heard was true. That brat who only had a 20%ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

compatibility passed even faster than Jimmy did!
