Fane heard similar threats a few times a day, so he was numb to it all. The warriors from the Swelling Tide Continent had sworn to make him suffer as well, but all of them were dead!
"Is this guy crazy, or is he faking it? Doesn't he know he's practically committing suicide right now? The Star Continent has always been very particular about its honor. Anyone who offends a warrior that has a significant position from their Continent will be targeted by them.
"So many have given up on their goals and left the city they were in for somewhere else. This is common knowledge, so this guy must've known this. Why is he still doing this, then? Is he just bored of living?"
"Who knows?! He's just crazy. I feel good, though. All of these warriors from the Star Continent act however they please. They act like they can do whatever they want, from cutting the queue to stealing our seats.
"They think that we'll listen to everything they say, and that no one will ever go against them. I know you're inwardly complaining, too. Even though this guy is going to end up with a terrible fate, he's speaking up for all of us!"
The moment that person said that, his fellow disciple immediately shut his mouth. The man frowned and said, "Hey, are you crazy?! How could you say something like that now? All of the warriors from Star Continent are fuming now! The walls have ears. If they end up hating you too, don't you think you're dead meat?"
Fane did not care about what everyone else was saying at all. In truth, he did not even need to think about it to know that all of them probably thought he was crazy to have done what he did.
After thinking about it, Fane smiled and turned around, looking at those two who were burning with rage.
"Your threats are all empty to me. If you have the skills, come fight me. If you don't, get lost. I don't have any time to waste on you."
Fane sounded very calm when he said all of that as if he was talking about what he would have for lunch.
Everyone who heard what he said was too shocked for words.
Fane was crazy! Everything he said was just more impactful than the last. He was practically stabbing the hearts of the Star Continent's warriors.
Before this, many thought that Fane was just acting out of desperation because he felt his dignity was tarnished, but at this point… It seemed like Fane truly was insane. He did not care who the warriors from Star Continent were. He just acted as he pleased.
Rowan and Nymm froze. Their eyes were opened wide as if they were about to pop out of their sockets. Nymm's whole body quaked in anger. He glared at Fane viciously as he gritted his teeth, looking like an enraged beast that was about to lunge at Fane.
His eyes were filled with murderous intent. If it was anyone else, they would have been affected and would have stepped back. However, Fane felt like the glare he shot him was just one from a complete idiot. It was useless.
Marth and Lourain looked at Fane with stunned expressions. Both of them opened their mouths to speak but wisely swallowed their words. There was nothing they could say in this situation. It was better for them to act like they had nothing to do with Fane.
Fane had the ability to protect himself, but they did not. There was no guarantee that Fane would protect them either, so it was better to stay out of it.
