Capítulo 617: Halmut Being Questioned

"JUST THROW AN ATTACK!!!"

"Your excellency--"

"NO EXCUSES!" Halmut roared. "Jack may be skilled, but that gives you no reason to flee from his presence!"

"Yet Jack managed to repel you."

Quieting his roar and sharpening his gaze, Halmut questioned, "What's the meaning of your statement?"

Perchet continued, "I believe that's what Tralbok is currently thinking. I'd bet money that Tralbok had such a thought in his head while facing Jack, deciding to play things defensively instead of going for a killing blow. Right, Tralbok?"

"Either way, that changes nothing…" Halmut replied with a shake of the head. "I was caught off guard because it was Jack's first time revealing his true strength. He used that surprise to his advantage and I backed off to ponder and reconsider the level of threat he presented. But you've all been warned and already know what he's capable of, so the one valid excuse for failure is nonexistent in Tralbok's case!"
