Chapter 90 - The Savior And The Killer (3) (1/2)
”The thing is... I want to say thank you in place of everyone else.”
Mitchell said with a heartfelt expression on his face while Eddie also nodded his head in agreement.
”Nah, it's okay... You guys had said thank me several times already. I told you I just did what I could, didn't I?” Jeremy replied casually as he really thought it was not a big deal.
The real big deal would only be if he didn't receive enough SP to buy skills...
Even so, Mitchell still tried to express more gratitude,
”Well... you know. We have no casualties at all, only some lightly and moderately wounded ones in this horde. That's also...”
”Alright, alright... I don't think of it as a major concern or anything; that's for real. So, stop the gratitude things, okay? Besides, do you have anything else to say except for thanking and appreciating me?”
Of course, Jeremy interrupted Mitchell's speech in the middle.
*Sigh*
Mitchell let out a short sigh in helplessness before finally going into the topic of his actual purpose of coming to see Jeremy,
”Alright, I understood. In fact, I have had something nagging me for quite some time already, may I ask?”
”Sure, go ahead.” Jeremy replied concisely.
When Mitchell had heard Jeremy's consent, he spoke in mind,
”That time, when you told us the plan, why did you tell me not to disclose to everyone that it was your idea?”
Upon hearing Mitchell's question, Jeremy pondered for a bit before replying,
”Hmm... Not gonna lie; I hate nuisance. Well... Let's think of it this way... if you tell everyone that it is, in fact, my plan, what will happen next?”
After being asked back instead of answered, Mitchell fell into deep thought before responding with some uncertainty within his voice,
”If so... everyone will feel even more indebted towards you. Oh, so when you said that you hated nuisance, it means you don't want anyone to bother you?”
”That's right. Everyone is just like a fly to me.”
Jeremy replied with a light smile after hearing Mitchell's reply while there was also another notion within his head,
'Especially the two of you... two bigger flies...'
Well, Jeremy's thought was quite logical as the two buddies were indeed annoying, for they to appear before him 'too' often.
At last, upon seeing Mitchell didn't ask any further and Eddie didn't even open his mouth to talk, Jeremy said lightly,
”Anything else? I have got something to do.”
”No, I've finished my piece.”
After hearing Mitchell's reply, Jeremy turned his head towards the 'quiet' muscular man, Eddie, and said,
”And you, Eddie?”
When Eddie had heard a question suddenly directed at him, he shook his head left and right vehemently for fear of inducing another wrath of the 'lord'.
”Good then. Excuse me.”
After saying so, Jeremy strolled away from the two people in the toilet's direction, situated near the Crystal.
...
A short time later...
Mitchel and Eddie came back behind the defensive measures...
”Please listen!!”
Suddenly, when the atmosphere started heating up from the people's excitement, Mitchell, who had just arrived back from the talk with Jeremy, shouted for attention.
