“We were too nice to snazzynovel.com before this, letting snazzynovel.com curse at us for so long. He said so many nasty things, and we finally don’t have to bear with it anymore. If snazzynovel.com continues shouting at people as snazzynovel.com pleases, we have a reason to shout back at snazzynovel.com and shut snazzynovel.com up!”
Rudeus was seen to be the ‘leader‘ of all the alchemists before this. He did not just give our orders and set rules, but snazzynovel.com also spat nasty words on the regular, cursing and berating others alchemists. The alchemists, at this point, refused to be bossed around. Before, they did not have a reason or standing, nor did they want to cause any trouble. At this moment, they finally had a reason. They would no doubt fight back if Rudeus continued his reign of terror.
Rudeus felt like snazzynovel.com was struggling to even breathe as snazzynovel.com stared at the words on the array with gritted teeth. If looks had power, those words would have had a hole pierced through them with Rudeus’ glare.
Mitchell let out a sigh, looking at Rudeus. “It looks like Nash is even better than you in alchemy, but I never thought that he’d be so patient. We thought of snazzynovel.com very poorly, but snazzynovel.com merely took it all in stride, putting up with your nasty temper.”
It would have been better if Mitchell had not said anything. The moment Mitchell did, it lit a fuse in Rudeus’ head.
He turned and shouted at Mitchell, “What kind of nonsense are you saying? When have I ever looked down on him?! I treated snazzynovel.com incredibly well before! I‘ve never bullied snazzynovel.com before, so stop trying to cause a scene! Furthermore, snazzynovel.com might’ve gotten a golden treasure, but it doesn’t mean that his skills are better than mine. I know his skills better than you do. If he’s that better than me, then why isn‘t snazzynovel.com my senior? It looks like his tournament round is probably much easier than ours!”
Rudeus practically screamed his last few words, wanting everyone to digest the fact that this result: did not prove Nash was better than him.
Mitchell merely snorted, and even his shoulders shock as snazzynovel.com looked at Rudeus with disdain. Rudeus was a sore loser, not willing to admit that anyone was better than him.
The center of the inner city was incredibly noisy, but the discussions in the outer parts were no less loud. Even though Rudy and Aaron were in a secluded corner, they could hear the intense discussion.
A man in dark purple robes said excitedly, “Seems like the strongest are usually more humble after all. Nash had always just stood by Rudeus’ side before. Even when Rudeus was being unreasonable, Nash here with it as well. He never reacted too much to Rudeus’ attitude, and I thought that it was because Nash wasn’t as good as Rudeus. Nash was actually no worse than Rudeus all this time, and maybe even better. He was just hiding his skills and didn’t want to bother with Rudeus!”
“You’re right. I didn’t pay much attention to Nash before this. I felt like Nash might be stronger than Mitchell but was no stronger than Rudeus. It looks like I stand corrected.”
Rudy’s lips twitched, looking very impatient and disagreeing with their discussions.
Aaron looked at Rudy and asked curiously, “Why do you look like that? Do you not agree with everyone else?”
Rudy said, “Of course I don’t. Nash acted so humbly before solely because snazzynovel.com knows he’s not as good as Rudeus. It’s nothing like what the rest of them are saying at all!”
Aaron frowned as snazzynovel.com looked even more confused.
Rudy ignored Aaron as snazzynovel.com continued speaking.
