Chapter 113: Seeking Knowledge Above All - Kai’s Vow!
Kai stood there with a horrified face as if he was seeing the Door for a second time.
Only men of science like him could fathom how grievous a blunder it was to assume something without considering all plausible explanations. It was a horror beyond the hideously patterned yellow door from his Blood Prophecy. It put a question mark on his very intelligence and cunningness.
Kai almost staggered to the bed, his mouth open.
Meg sat down beside him. "I have never heard of an Item influencing the outer world before unless it's out of the Inventory," she said, her sweet voice entering his ears. "If even the topmost Contestants were in your place, they would have made the same mistake, I am sure."
Her words meant nothing to him now.
Kai never compared himself to others like this. His ambition forbade him. He was the one who would stand at the Peak of Absolute Power alone.
Others could afford to make a mistake like that.
Not Blood Demon.
With every second, anger welled up in his heart. How could he not see it before? Not knowing what your Skills and Items could do was a rookie mistake. Was he some run-of-the-mill newbie? Had he fallen so low that he now lived on his momentary assumptions?
Kai's face became red with shame, blood rising to his eyes, aiming for his brain.
He closed his eyes and took several deep breaths.
