Chapter 1845. The Essence of the Trial

Jack spent hours trying to hit Elder Maniac with his sword, but he failed every attempt. Tired and frustrated, he sat on the ground panting.

"You are missing the point," Elder Maniac said.

"Can you give me a clue, elder?" Jack asked. "Just a tiny itsy-bitsy clue will be appreciated."

Elder Maniac shook his head. "I must say, I am rather disappointed. I have high hopes after your first slash. I guess you will be another disappointment."

The elder stood up.

"Huh?" Jack was confused seeing the elder's action. This was the first time the elder moved. Did his request for a clue angered the elder? It was just a small request, Goddamnit!

"You won't succeed if you keep doing the same thing again and again. Let's change the game a little. Find me. If you can, we will resume the trial."

"Find you…?"

While Jack was still making sense of things, the elder took one step back and vanished.
