Iron Snow Clouds

Chapter 4864 (Four Thousand Eight Hundred and Sixty Four)

"I do feel more frightened," the man said, "but at the same time I feel that... I have to say it that way... so that I won't feel suffocated, and that way... I feel relieved."

The Gray Hand asked, "Did you say anything to him again?"

The man replied: "It seems that he is the one who is scared to death now... and he says that others are scared... This is funny."

The Gray Hand asked, "You will not admit your fear in front of him at this time?"

"Absolutely not." The man said, "I think that was too shameful. At that time, I felt that... I... I could never do that again."

"Don't you already know that he can understand what you are thinking?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I thought of this at that moment, but... I quickly thought that even if he... said what I was thinking, I could deny it... In this way... he couldn't prove what I was thinking."

The Gray Hand asked again: "How did he react?"

"He asked me what he was afraid of," said the man.

"Did you answer him?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I told him directly, but he asked me what I was thinking... This is really weird! He knows what he is afraid of... There is no point in asking others." said the man.

"What happened next?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Then he told me...the reason he asked me that was because...I was afraid myself, so I thought others were afraid too." said the man.

"How do you feel after hearing this?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"I knew he could understand that I was afraid...but...but he was not right. I was afraid, but...but I said he was afraid not because I really thought he was afraid, and I said he was afraid not because I was afraid myself." The man replied, "I am a little suspicious now whether he said that on purpose...or...or...or my inner thoughts are no longer as accurate as before."

The Gray Hand asked, "What did you tell him?"

"I said... he was so scared that his original ability was reduced to a small amount." The man said. "What did he do after hearing it?" asked the gray-handed man.

"He asked me what skill I was talking about," the man replied.

"Did you tell him?" asked the Gray Hand Man.

"Yes." The man said, "I also want to find out what's going on... If I can find out that his ability to understand other people's thoughts has decreased, then... that's not bad."

The Gray Hand asked, "What did you tell him?"

"I told him...his ability to understand other people's thoughts has diminished," the man said.

"What did he say?" asked the Gray Hand.

"He said... I was... arrogant." The man said, "Without any evidence... he just said that... He asked me if I really thought he didn't know what I was thinking."

The Gray Hand said, "Did you answer?"

"I answered." The man said, "I said if...if he really knew...he wouldn't be wrong."

"Actually, you just said that you were a little suspicious whether he said that on purpose. You also know that even if he really knew it, what he said might not be true, right?" asked the man with gray hands.

"Yes." said the man.

"So you actually said that on purpose." said the Gray Hand Man.

"That... you could say that..." the man said, "I want to hear how he responds."

The Gray Hand asked again: "What did the other party say?"
