Chapter 2996
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…”
Jackie raised an eyebrow and merely let out a faint smile.
After everyone heard Emilio’s words, they let out looks of realization. No wonder Jackie’s actions had been so hard to
understand. Insulting Ethan and betting against Ethan. No matter what anyone else said, Jackie had been unfazed. At that
moment, everyone had been wondering if Jackie had some sort of goal in mind. It was then they realized that Jackie had not
regarded them as anything at all. Jackie had just been incredibly confident.
Jackie 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 Jackie had definitely said that he would not have done the bet ifhe did not have the skills. At the time, no one believed in him. They even thought that he must havebeen crazy to say that. Now, they know that he 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 feltlike he was a complete clown in front of Jackie.
He 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 itseemed 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 spotsomewhat 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. Evenif 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-upsasked.
Jackie raised an eyebrow, suddenly feeling like there was a gaze on him. He then looked up tosee 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 endup like that.novelbin
Jackie had gotten a golden treasure, while he had gotten nothing. Compared to Jackie, 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? And…
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 Jackie, he could not deny
Jackie’s value. Just with Jackie’s skills, Scarlet Pavilion would happily accept Jackie. 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 Jackie.
Jackie raised an eyebrow as he said calmly, “I’m just more talented than all of you. There’s nothing else to it.”
