"These people should all die! We, regular warriors, did nothing to them, but they used such cruel methods to kill us!
We can't tolerate this!"
Suddenly, everyone was in an uproar. More and more similar things were being said as everyone loudly shouted,
venting their frustrations.
Jack stood behind them and quietly listened to them.
Lionel continued to say, "However, those warriors at the peak aren't easy to deal with. They come from notable
places, and their fellow disciples are there to protect them. It'll be very hard for us to make them pay!"
Right after Lionel said that, someone quickly said, "Dealing with them will be harder, but isn't there still Jack? He's
the same as those snakes, but he doesn't have a notable background and doesn't have any fellow disciples to
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtprotect him. Dealing with him would be much easier. Then, if we make Jack pay, it'll be a warning to the others!"
After that was said, a portion of the crowd there nodded, feeling like that was a good idea. The warriors at the peak
who had a good background would definitely have fellow disciples quietly supporting them. Getting revenge on
them would mean dealing with their fellow disciples first, which would be very
troublesome.
However, Jack would be much easier.
News about Jack was spreading like wildfire in recent times, and Jack's background was no longer a secret. Jack
came from Hestia Continent, a third-grade world. He could not be compared to warriors from second-grade worlds.
Furthermore, Jack enjoyed moving alone. Even if there was anyone with him, it would not be more than two people.
In that case, Jack was definitely much easier to deal with.
However, there were not many people who were being swayed by Lionel. Even though Lionel gave such an
emotional speech, the others were not being strung along by him.
Even though everyone was angry at Jack because of Lionel, it was not to the level of wanting to deal with Jack. After
all, Jack was not a mastermind or a participant in the matter. He just decided against helping at an important
moment and did not lead everyone's revolt.
Lionel saw that the people there were not that receptive, and his expression soured a bit.
He silently cursed that the warriors there were all stupid pigs, but he was forced to patiently continue, "If we don't
attack Jack, then those people will continue to see us as livestock that they can do whatever they want with! Then,
even more people will die at their hands. Only by letting them know pain, by letting them know that we're not going
to take it lying down, would they stop!"
Lionel was doing everything he could to stir the crowd and get them to attack Jack. He fanned everyone's anger for
Jack, and pushed Jack right to the front, framing Jack as a shameless and despicable person. Lourain could no

longer stand it after listening for so long. He felt that he would lose himself to his anger if he continued to listen.
He had seen many who were good at twisting the truth before but had never seen someone who crossed the line
so much.
Lionel was using his silver tongue to completely distort the truth. Lourain was so angry that he was about to curse,
but Jack grabbed his arm and stopped him.
Jack glanced at Lourain and said in a low voice, "Leave that man to me."
After entering the Whirling World, Jack had been constantly challenged. At the start, Jack would have gotten angry.
However, he slowly learned to control his emotions.
He was rarely angered, but this time, Lionel had successfully angered him. His mind was burning in rage, but his
expression was still calm on the surface.
