Karsi and Mark, whose bodies were stiff, had long since been shocked to the extreme by the continuous changes before their eyes.
They knew who Lawless was.
In their minds, Lawless was a harmless, simple-minded person who loved to smoke and drink, similar to Rachel's follower.
But that was before the fight.
Now?
Facing Lawless, Karles and Mark felt like they were facing a formidable foe.
A follower wouldn't have the strength to intimidate two high-rankers.
As for Starbeck?
The cowardly Starbeck was quite famous in a certain aspect, Karles and Mark knew him too.
However, they never thought the rumored cowardly and harmless Starbeck would be this scary.
Karles and Mark's frozen body started to tremble when they saw Starbeck walking towards them step by step.
It was because of fear.
It was also because of their instincts.
They felt like they were being noticed by a monster at the top of the food chain.
What scared them more was …
This monster was a carnivorous monster.
"This is Rachel's room, have you thought about the consequences of attacking her in here?"
Mark screamed.
His tongue was grabbed by Lawless, his words were muffled and he could only express himself by screaming.
"So what?"
Lawless grumbled.
Starbeck let out a light chuckle.
Lawless clenched his fists tightly.
Just like what he said before, he was ready to pull their tongues out.
Starbeck was getting closer.
He was ready to feed the two of them to the dogs.
As for the threat they were talking about?
Would the system punish them accordingly?
Sorry, whether it was Lawless or Starbeck, both of them were drunk, they didn't care.
Lawless completely let go of his usual resistance and suppression under the influence of alcohol, releasing all his suppressed killer intents and killing intent.
Starbeck's personality even changed drastically.
It was also a change of extreme suppression.
It was also a flaw in his personality.
And …
It was powerful enough to make one doubt their own existence.
The two high-rankers were like a small boat in the middle of a storm in the middle of the sea, in danger of being destroyed at any moment.
Then …
Pak!
A beer bottle was smacked on the back of Lawless's head.
"Calm down."
"And you."
Rachel appeared in the middle of the group. She grabbed Lawless, who was already drunk and dizzy after being smashed by a bottle, and stuffed another bottle into Starbeck's mouth.
Gulp, gulp.
A bottle of liquor that wasn't inferior to [Flaming Ice Lake] was emptied by Starbeck just like that.
A moment ago, Starbeck was emanating a ferocious aura but a moment later, he wobbled and fell on the ground, snoring loudly.
"Both of them are troublesome fellows."
"You bastard, you're always attracting these strange fellows."
"I have to clean up your mess every time!"
"Let me tell you, the debt you owe me has doubled!"
Rachel grabbed Lawless by his collar and growled loudly.
"Hey, hey, R-Rachel."
In his drunken state, Lawless called out to Rachel, but it didn't make Rachel forgive him. The ice bucket that was used to mix drinks was locked on Lawless' head by Rachel.
"Wake up properly for me."
Grunting coldly, Rachel looked at Karles and Mark, who were standing on the spot.
Karles and Mark shivered when they saw Rachel's gaze.
As one of the members of the loose organization, Karles and Mark knew how powerful the woman before them was.
It was also because of that, the meeting place of their loose organization was Harvest Inn and not some other place.
As a matter of fact, the moment Rachel appeared, the two of them who were "freed" really wanted to run away. If they weren't in Harvest Inn and Rachel's room, they would have run away.
The system had always been fair.
While it granted certain restrictions, it also granted certain rights.
Similar to how they needed Rachel's permission to enter Harvest Inn and Rachel couldn't harm them since they entered, but she also needed Rachel's permission to leave.
"I didn't betray you or anyone else.
I'm just jealous of 2567. "
Karles said straightforwardly when he saw Rachel's gaze.
These seemingly straightforward words pushed Ma Ke to the front of the stage.
Mark threw a hateful gaze at Karles and raised his hands up high.
"Fine, I'll admit it.
I did betray everyone but my betrayal didn't cause any actual losses!
So I am willing to use my actions to make up for my mistakes. "
Mark said with a little sophistry.
"No actual losses?
Colluding with Broker and trying to catch us all in one fell swoop, isn't that considered as actual losses?
Or colluding with the Watchers and selling out information about our movements, isn't that considered as actual losses?
If all of these aren't counted, then Mark, what do you think the actual losses are? "
When the words escaped Rachel's mouth, Mark's blurry face changed drastically.
Mark never would have thought that the things he did, the things he thought he was hiding, were all seen by Rachel and the reason why she didn't say anything …
"You are using me?!"
Mark shouted angrily.
Rachel didn't answer, she just raised her hand.
Right away, Mark vanished from her sight.
He didn't die.
He was just banished.
He was banished from his room.
Then, Rachel turned around and looked at Karles.
"Is it wrong to be jealous?
It's a normal emotion, anyone in my position would feel the same. "
Karles explained again.
Rachel nodded in agreement but what she said next rendered Karles speechless.
"Of course it's not wrong to be jealous, anyone would be jealous, including me but I will control my jealousy, I won't let it control me to do something unforgivable.
"Or could it be that you've joined us with an ulterior motive?"
"Mr. Karles, one of the guardians of the Witch's Legacy."
Rachel's words were like thunder that echoed in Karles' ears.
"When did you notice?"
Karles looked at Rachel in astonishment.
"At the very beginning."
Rachel answered.
"Is it because of Wu?
It can only be Wu … Her abilities are unfathomable in certain aspects, no matter how careful I am, she will see through me with a single glance. "
Karles did not wait for Rachel's reply before he smiled bitterly.
Then, Karles fell into silence.
Karles knew he had been seen through.
It was useless to say anything at this point in time, instead, the more he said, the more he would expose and the more bargaining chips he would lose.
Rachel didn't say anything else, she crossed her arms and leaned on the bar counter, standing there quietly as if she was waiting for something.
The wait wasn't long though, two to three seconds at most.
When Rachel received the message, she smiled and gave her permission.
