When Hofklo began speaking, his gaze never left Jason.
This advisor to Sewock VII spoke while secretly observing Jason.
He hoped to see more emotions on Jason's face, using it as a breakthrough.
However, to the disappointnt of this advisor to Sewock VII, Jason remained calm throughout, showing no shock, not even a hint of surprise.
"I swear what I'm saying is true!"
This advisor to Sewock VII subconsciously emphasized.
He thought Jason didn't believe him.
Subsequently, the advisor added another sentence.
"I can swear to the True Spirit!"
Saying that, the other party gestured the ritual gesture of swearing to the True Spirit.
To this, Jason remained indifferent.
Jason was not surprised that the 'Shepherd' was in Tert.
Even though the other party was being hunted by his teacher 'Dan', it was not the first ti the other party escaped such a hunt; clearly, the other party had a way to temporarily shake off his teacher 'Dan'.
Having experienced the other party appearing before him, Jason was very certain of this point.
As for the other party knowing he ascended to a Level 5 'Night Watcher'?
That wasn't difficult either.
In this world filled with 'mystery', trying to hide so secrets is extrely difficult, and moreover, he didn't truly hide it, but demonstrated it directly in front of Morton, the four Ailin sisters, Sid, Elpa, and everyone else.
Perhaps at that ti, only Morton thought of sothing, but afterwards, others would think of this too.
Then, considering Sid and Elpa's personalities, under Morton's strict orders, they probably wouldn't speak near Tert.
But what about people far away from Tert?
Like his own friends?
Like his own teacher?
Write a letter informing them.
And remind them that it's a secret, not to tell others.
Then, these people would follow this rule, telling their friends while reminding them, 'This is a secret, do not tell others!'
Thus, this rule remains.
The secret, however, is no longer a secret.
But has beco sothing widely known.
And does the 'Shepherd' want to make a move on him?
That is even more obvious.
There is a grudge between them, that's undeniable.
Moreover, it seems the other party misunderstood so things about him, thinking he actually ingested the 'Herculean Potion'.
Of course, this result was what Jason always wanted.
With these two factors combined, it would be strange if the other party didn't make a move on him.
After all, being hunted by one Level 5 'Night Watcher', and being hunted by two Level 5 'Night Watchers', that is a completely different concept.
Understanding all this, Jason wasn't surprised at Hofklo's words before him.
Because, Jason understood even more why Hofklo said such things.
It was nothing more than to shock him, preferably make him fearful.
And then?
Of course, to seize the initiative in this conversation.
Jason would never allow such a thing to happen.
So, Jason remained unperturbed, calmly watching Hofklo, especially Hofklo's hairline.
Although the other party was well-grood, and his hair ticulously arranged.
But precisely because of such grooming, it made the other party's hairline appear even more receding.
It was evident that this advisor to Sewock VII was soone who valued his appearance, but the more such a person was, the more they would focus on their shortcomings. Ȑ𝐀ƝŏＢЁS̩
A receding hairline being one of them, naturally.
Quickly, under Jason's gaze, Hofklo felt uncomfortable.
If it were soone else, Hofklo would have broken the other person's leg.
But facing Jason?
He couldn't do that.
He could only twist his body slightly before speaking again.
"Sir Jason, let introduce myself."
"I am Hofklo, originally from that 'organization'—if you have truly inherited Tercon's heritage, then you must be familiar with this 'organization'."
"I, like Tercon, co from there."
"Of course, none of us can ntion its na."
Hofklo said.
Jason nodded, signaling for him to continue.
"This 'organization' was founded during the ti of Walker III, initially just a salon for gatherings and exchanges, but over ti, more people joined, changing its original purpose."
"It beca mysterious, powerful, and...with many rules."
"Therefore, I, Tercon, and others of the first wave of mbers couldn't stand these rules and chose to leave."
Saying this, Hofklo, who had maintained a calm facade, showed anger.
This advisor to Sewock VII, paused for a second, speaking as calmly as he could.
"However, we were deceived."
"These so-called rules were ant to target us!"
"They kicked us aside with one vigorous push, and then began their own plans."
"Similarly, we will not just let it rest; we ford a new 'organization' to take back everything that belonged to us."
"Tercon?"
"He wasn't a mber of the new 'organization'."
"In fact, many elders didn't want to turn against the 'organization' because they knew the strength of the 'organization', with Tercon being just one of them."
"But the new 'organization' was still ford, and contended openly and covertly with the old 'organization' for decades, not falling behind."
"Because we found that the old 'organization' was not a monolithic entity in the true sense."
"Many among them had their own agendas."
