Chapter 233: Chapter 233 - 233. Still Alive?

When Jack arrived at the outskirt of the Starlight Ruin, he could see several groups hanging around the place chatting among themselves. Some could also be seen departing away. It appeared the meeting had ended. The people who still hanged around reminded him of the socialization after a reception. Jack sighed to himself, it appeared there were still many guilds that would be cooperating with the three guilds. They would be a force to reckon with. He would need to hurry and strengthen himself if he were to survive. After that skirmish in the rock basin, he had officially become an enemy to all three guilds. He doubted it would only be a cold war from now on. He went into the innermost courtyard where the meeting was held. The guards stationed at the perimeter only looked at him without hindering his entrance. The courtyard was still full of people, but they were mostly from the three guilds. Jack could hear them discussing things quite heatedly amongst themselves. The situation appeared rather tense from the looks on their faces. He figured they had all learned about the failure of the main team who went to ambush John. Good then, save him the time from explaining. He saw Scarface amongst the crowd of Death Associates, he went towards him. He was hoping to probably still learn something from him about the last phase of the meeting. When he was a few meters from them, he stopped abruptly, because he recognized the person next to Scarface. Someone that shouldn't be here. Jack used his God-eye monocle for a scan, making sure he didn't recognize a different person. Apart from his level was sixteen which was one level lower than the previous, his name's description clearly stated Earmouth. He didn't recognize wrongly. But how could he still be alive? He clearly killed him out there in the wildnerness, yet the penalty he received was as if he was killed within a safe zone. Not to mention people who were killed in wilderness would be stuck in a place called Limbo for half an hour before they revived in the safe zone. He estimated the timing. The only safe zone nearby was capital Thereath. For Earmouth to arrive back here before him, meant he was immediately brought back to life after he died and directly came to this place without pause. Did he have something that allowed such a resurrection function similar to his Immortal Soul skill? While he was pondering, Earmouth noticed him and immediately pointed at him and screamed out, "you!" Earmouth seemed to be at a loss for a moment with his finger continued to be pointing at Jack. He finally managed to continue, "you left us! You completely deserted us to fend for ourselves. You are a disgrace to our guild! I demand him to be punished!" Though Jack was given a fright by his sudden hostility, he kept his calm and maintained his indifferent attitude. After Earmouth's ramblings stopped, Jack said nonchalantly, "Please take a breath, you will scare everyone. I have just got back here, please don't suddenly throw accusations at me."
