"I can't believe that there's a person as strong as you in this place! Which organization in the stronghold do you belong to?" The thin shouted as he questioned.

 

Jack and Denali frowned when they heard his words. Although it wasn't a surprise that he could perhaps be surprised by the fact that there was actually a stronger person than him in this place, but there was something that he had stated that didn't ring any bells in Jack's mind.

 

Jack himself had seen that, the thin man wasn't weak at all. If it came to comparison, he could currently be compared to three adult men. But that was all it was to him.

 

Although it could be said that he was weaker than either Jack or Denali, that didn't mean that he was a weak person. The thin man could currently be compared to Jonathan.

 

"What stronghold are you talking about?" Jack asked with narrowed eyes. He really wanted to get the information about this stronghold and organization things.

 

He actually wouldn't be surprised that there were several organizations that were hidden in the country. But, the word stronghold was something that aroused the curiosity in him.

 

When the word stronghold was mentioned, it would be related to a structure or city, that was built with the main aim of acting as a form of defense.

 

From his current perspective, there was no need for such strongholds in the fight where countries were involved. If it was true that there were several strongholds that were present, then there was supposed to be a secret that he didn't know about.

 

When the thin man had what Jack had asked, he was surprised that Jack actually didn't know what he considered as a basic knowledge.

 

Could he have mistaken? But how was that possible? Denali was far stronger than a person that was supposed to be found in such an area. Not just an area, even the continent where she was, has strength was unprecedented.

 

And since she said that he was too weak to face Jack, didn't that mean that at least, Jack was as strong as her. Just thinking of this, the thin man couldn't help but wonder how this was possible, to find a person not just one, but two of them at that, that were far stronger than him.

 

Upon seeing that the thin man was suddenly quiet, Jack frowned. Could it be that the information that he was just about to get, was going to be hidden from him again?

 

There was no way that Jack was going to let that happen. Since he had gotten a chance to get the information about something that was so hidden, he had to make sure that he got to the end of it.

 

"Are you going to talk or not?" Jack question as he looked at the thin man with a frown on his face. He was getting impatient.

 

"What does it matter? Since you don't know anything about the strongholds, then you are nothing than a frog in a well." The thin man sneered at Jack.

 

Denali's eyes turned cold when the thin man actually did to show contempt at her master. Jack was the person that she valued the most. And as a result, she wasn't going to let just anyone to dare or to devalue him.

 

Without uttering a word, she stepped forward and kicked the thin man on the jaw, sending him flying across the warehouse. She had made sure to limit her strength so that, the thin man wouldn't die of when he hadn't answered what Jack had questioned.

 

Although she wasn't talking, she too was actually curious about the stronghold that the thin man was mentioning.

 

"Gah!"

 

The thin man was forced to speed out some of his teeth. The kick that Denali had delivered on his jaw, although it wasn't using her maximum strength, it wasn't gentle at all.

 

The thin man glared at Denali. There was great hatred in his eyes. This was the first time that he was being humiliated in such a manner. Even though he was the weakest from where he came from, he wasn't treated in such a manner at all.

 

And when his eyes landed on Jack, the hatred in his eyes intensified further. Jack was Denali's master. And since that was the case, he should have easily stopped Denali from humiliating him. But all this while, he did nothing other than watching from the side.

 

"Let me ask again, are you going to talk or not? If you are willing to talk, then better spit out all that you know. And if you're not going to talk, it is better if you let me know as early as now so that I can deal with you as I please." Jack spoke again.

 

The thin man glared at Jack but he didn't say a word. He wasn't going to say what he knew simply because the Jack stated. That was something that he considered below his level. At the end of the day, he wasn't Jack's lackey.

 

Seeing the silent man, Jack looked at Denali before nodding at her. Since she was a professional combatant, she was good at torture as well.

 

While he left the thin man to the devices of Denali, he shifted his attention to Nathan who was standing there, completely lost.

 

The person that he had expected to save him, was easily beaten up. And he was beaten by a servant, in a one-sided fight. He had thought that since a strong person was sent over, he would be free.

 

But now, his hope so was completely shattered. What he hoped for the most was for that person to send over a person who was even stronger than the one that had appeared.

 

But, he thought that this was unlikely. After all, it wasn't that easy to get the strong people like the thin man to arrive here in Azima.

 

Even for the thin man, it was obvious that he was within the country when the elites that were sent over failed to rescue Nathan.

 

"Okay then, you have been here for a long time enough. I guess it's time for me to deal with you so that we can settle our scores." Jack's voice echoed in Nathan's ears, bringing a shiver down his spine.

 

Nathan slowly raised his head as he looked at Jack who was now standing in front of him. He knew that the chances of getting saved was now as low as it could be.

 

But, he wouldn't be a fool to allow Jack get the upper hand in the situation. Perhaps, if he managed to stall for enough time, he might actually be rescued. After all, what he had was far more important to that person. He was sure that, that person wouldn't give up on it.

 

"Jack, you should be careful. You should know that, that guy over there is the weakest amongst the troop that the person backing me up has." Nathan began.

 

"And since that is the case, there will be…." This time, Jack didn't allow him to continue blabbering nonsense. He immediately made his move, and began attacking Nathan.

 

Since he wasn't going for a direct kill, he went ahead and broke several of Nathan's limbs. He wasn't lenient with him at all. He made sure that Nathan passed through the greatest pain that he would have ever had in his life.

 

This was just away that Jack was going to make sure that, Nathan's death would be worth it. Although it was true that even if he killed Nathan off, his mother wouldn't come back, Jack didn't care.

 

Since Nathan was involved in the death of his mother, then he too didn't deserve to be alive. Even the crimes that he had committed wouldn't allow him to be alive. Who knew what he was going to do next when he was free?

 

Nathan laid on the ground, completely given up. The pain that he had gone through had made him give up on his life. What he wanted the most at the moment was for Jack to end his miserable life.

 

But no matter what he did, Jack didn't do as he wanted. Since nothing was no begging for death so that he could be relieved from the pain that he was experiencing, Jack was going to let him continue experiencing the pain for a while longer.

 

Completely ignoring Nathan who had already lost his voice due to the screaming that had been ongoing for more than half an hour, Jack headed for the thin man.

 

When he arrived in front of the thin man, Jack couldn't help but get stunned by what he saw. It seemed that Denali was too serious in getting the information from the thin man that he tortured that guy, even worse than he had done to Nathan.

 

The reason as to why he had not had the screaming, was simply because Denali had gagged his mouth.

 

Just looking at the thin man who was bleeding all over, Jack couldn't help but have a shiver running through his spine. For a moment, he couldn't help but give Denali a glance.

 

But when he saw the cute expression that was on Denali's face, Jack couldn't help but lament that, sometimes, women were just too good at acting and shifting in emotions. Women are dangerous.

 

It was just a good thing that he wasn't on Denali's bad side. For now, Jack was now curious about the organization that the system had mentioned before. The one that had actually trained Denali.

 

Although it is true that Denali was getting the skills that Jack wanted, the system had forged a background for her. And as of now, the system had forged that, all the skills that Denali had learned till this moment were the ones that were taught to her since she was young.

 

"Any information from him?" Jack asked as he looked at Denali.
