Agelt scoffed as he coldly glanced at Fane, mentally telling himself that Fane deserved the insults. This man really did not know his place and seemed capable of saying anything.
Fane, however, remained calm, as if everything they said was just nonsense that could not affect his composure at all.
Fane chuckled and said, "I know you don't believe me, but that's fine. I'll prove to you which one of us is the fool here."
After saying that, Fane took a step forward and said to Manson loudly, "Didn't you think you were stronger than me? Why don't we have a match to prove it?"
When Fane said that, he had an abnormally serious look on his face. He did not seem to be joking at all.
He only noticed after they arrived there that they had six opponents while there were only five on their side. Other than himself, Fane did not feel like anyone on his side would be able to defeat their opponents, so Fane devised a new plan.
Before the two of them fought, Fane wanted to try to eliminate the strongest one before dealing with the rest. For the sake of the bigger picture, he had to take every step carefully.
No one else knew what Fane was thinking.
Fane bemused Agelt. He did not think that Fane would be able to kill Manson and instead felt like he himself would be the one to clean up after everyone, being the determinant of this whole battle.
That had been Agelt's thoughts the whole time, so when he heard what Fane had said, it provoked him enough to stand out and voiced his complaints. However, the others did not know what Agelt was thinking at all. Even if Fane knew, he would just think that Agelt was dreaming.
Manson's smile disappeared as he narrowed his eyes, glaring right at Fane. "Brat! You're even more outrageous than I thought. Do you think you can really beat me?"
Fane nodded emphatically and added, his tone serious, "If I didn't think I could face you, I wouldn't have asked for it. If you don't think you can beat me alone, you can always get another team member. I can deal with two of you at once."
Manson was red with fury. "How dare you?! You're unbelievably arrogant. Who do you think you are, taking on two of us at once? Are you done bragging? There really are miracles everywhere! You're the biggest idiot I've ever seen!"
As he said that, Manson's voice shook a little in his rage. He felt like everything Fane said was an insult to his dignity. There was no way Manson could stand it.
Other than Braum, everyone else thought that Fane was crazy.
He had to be crazy to have said this, possibly trying to anger them, which he succeeded in doing. Manson was quite angry, and he could no longer stand it as he rushed right at Fane.
In the air, his hands constantly formed white seals. Those seals distorted in the air, fusing into the surrounding space. A second later, snowflakes of various sizes started to appear as the surrounding temperature started to drop.
Every breath they took produced white clouds.
