The Soldier's Unsurpassable Honor

The armored man who mocked Fane for being suicidal earlier widened his eyes, unable to say anything. Before this, he was certain Fane was just unhinged because he could not understand Fane's thoughts and did not know why he did what he did. His fellow disciple even told him not to bother deciphering the actions of a fool. After all, anyone who could understand a crazy person was probably close to being just as insane as well. This sounded reasonable, so he decided against wasting his time. No one expected the situation to turn into something like this. That crazy man he could not understand was this talented all along. Even his fellow disciples all had their eyes widened in disbelief, unable to say anything, let alone him. The results stunned all of them.

After a long time, the man finally opened his mouth and said slowly, "He's not crazy. I was just ignorant."

No wonder he could not understand that person. From the very start, he was coming from the wrong ground. Lane was not suicidal but very confident instead. The gold difficulty was a death sentence for most of them, but it was just a challenge to Lane. They finally knew why Lane always had a calm expression on his face regardless of how others reacted to his actions. In Lane's eyes, the discussions around him were just nonsense.

They had just been talking based on their misconceptions; none of them ever thought that he would actually be able to do it. Thinking about that, the armored man pursed his lips and smiled deprecatingly. However, the disdain was not for Lane but himself.

At that moment, he finally

understood the true meaning of being ignorant. They were just pitiful flies who could not even see how vast the sky was, yet they tried to speculate based on their

understanding. It was a complete

joke.

The armored man's fellow disciple pursed his lips and said, "If he's so strong, we should've recognized him. If he had, I wouldn't have made such a bad judgment."

The armored man merely felt

amused by his fellow disciple trying

to save himself from

embarrassment, but he did not admonish him on that as he wanted to keep things amicable. He merely nodded with a smile, not saying anything.

Crash's lips stiffened as he suddenly remembered what Fane said.

The caretaker had allowed Fane to choose how he would approach the challenge. First was to do it himself, while the other was to do it while the other two were challenging theirs as well. At the time, Fane chose the first one without hesitation, and Crash had been surprised. He questioned Fane about it and the man answered him in annoyance.

Crash remembered how Fane only answered him with one thing, which was that he did not want to waste any time. The moment he heard that, he had been confused, but he quickly reacted. What Fane meant was that Crash and Monte would have wasted his time if they challenged it together.

Just thinking about it, Crash had felt like the man was completely absurd.
