System In Another World - Chapter 144

Jin looked at everyone before taking out a paper bills. He said, “I’m betting a hundred bucks that she will die. So who’s gonna bet against me?”

He looked at the paper bill on his hand with hesitation. This was the only money he have right now. He was so poor that he couldn’t even bought a new house for his group.

‘I will gamble all my money here!’ Jin thought as he slowly place down the paper bill on the table.

Then, he recalled that they brought a bunch of gold from Danmachi.

‘Ah! I forgot the we still have gold but the gold were in possession of Jellal. Damn! Jellal, you should atleast leave some for me!’ Jin cursed Jellal in his mind.

“You!!” Katarea was infuriated at his attitude. Her energy fluctuations rose up to it’s peak.

Jin ignored her powerful energy and turned his head to her, he said, “I’m just saying the truth, you alone are no match for them.”

“You dare to mock me!!” Katarea said angrily. She took a stepped forward towards him.

Bikou and the rest of Team Vali braced theirself as they pose their battle stance.

Jin stood up and shrugged his shoulder. “Well, I don’t have anything else to do so I will watch your downfall at that time.” He said before turning around and exiting the room. He didn’t forget to take his paper bill.

As soon as he left, the room turned silent. Everyone thought that Jin was correct. If it was before Jin was correct but now that they received the ‘snake’ from Ophis they thought that they would succeed.

Only Jin know that the ‘snake’ they received from Ophis weren’t enough to match those people especially those who were sitting on the top 10 strongest.

Being in the top 10 strongest doesn’t mean that they could KOed the other faction easily. If a war between faction happen, it would create a great casualties on both side even if the other side has the top 10 strongest. It’s true that no one could match those beings in one on one, but if they fought a dozen at the same time it doesn’t guaranteed that they would escape unscathed.

But clearly the people from Khaos Brigade were underestimating them. They thought that they were already powerful enough with Ophis’ snake.

…

Jin left the headquarters and turned his head to looked back. This time he made the other members of the Khaos Brigade think badly of him.

In his group the only member who was interested in learning the usage of his equipments was Jellal. So he thought Jellal how to used Black Trigger – Organon and Black Trigger – Speiraskia. He was not that selfish to forbid Jellal from using the equipments. The equipments were also part of the strength of Thousand Abyss group. All the members of the group have the right to use the equipment but only Jellal was interested.

He should’ve let Jellal carry the Speiraskia with him so Jellal can go back easily and find everyone. Oh? So Jellal will become a transportation. No, Jellal was the only one he could count in as he was doing everything that Jin said. He should’ve let the job of transportation to Kuroka.

‘Hmm… Okay, I will teach her how to use Speiraskia later.’ Jin thought as he rubbed his chin. He activated the Black Trigger and opened a portal back to his house in Kuoh Town.

In just a seconds, he arrived inside the house.

Mercphobia and Ranye noticed his arrival.

Rayne opened her mouth and asked, “How is it?”

“Hmm… Not bad for entertainment.” Jin replied to her. He then asked, “Are they back?”

“Only Ur’s group. Aisha, Haruhime, and Jellal weren’t back yet.” Ranye said.

“I wouldn’t need to worry about Haruhime with Aisha there and Jellal that grandson of mine can handle his own.” Jin muttered. Aisha was strong plus Haruhime was powerful in support magic. The combo of this two were powerful enough. And Jellal was stronger than Springgan and weaker than Acnologia. His battle power was between them, that is if Jellal doesn’t use his Demon Form.

The only thing that he’s worried right now were the gold in Jellal. He doesn’t know when will Jellal return so he could only wait in the corner while thinking about those gold.

“Did Jellal leave anything?” He asked Ranye to make sure.

“Hmm…” Ranye out her finger on her lower lips. “I couldn’t think of anything that he leave…”

“Damn! That Jellal why didn’t he leave some for me!” Jin cursed.

“Eh? What’s wrong with Jellal?” Ranye asked.

“We didn’t have any money here and the gold we brought were all in Jellal’s pocket! I at least want to buy a decent house for us and bought a decent meal.” Jin said.

…

A blue haired young man was flying in the sky with a very fast speed. A group of people were following behind him.

“I shouldn’t have fly. I accidentally enter someone’s territory.” Jellal muttered as he continued to fly. He turned descend down and launched a magic attack at his pursuer.

Boom!

He just want to gathered information here and learned more about this world but he didn’t think that he would enter someone else territory. He got careless and those people started to chase after him. He entered many cities and tried to shook off his pursuer but those people keep coming at him and their numbers kept increasing. Even if he took them down reinforcement kept appearing.

He didn’t notice it but he travelled far away from Jin that he didn’t know the way back now.

He found a garden inside the castle and tried to hide inside. He noticed that his pursuer stopped following him. He was sure that he concealed himself when entering the castle so those people didn’t saw him. There’s also other possibilities and that’s he’s inside other forces territory that those people didn’t dare to enter here.

“Atleast, I shook them off.” Jellal muttered as he stood up. He looked around the garden. He doesn’t know where he was right now.

While he was looking around curiously, he saw the back of a woman. The woman was wearing an elegant dress.

The woman seem to noticed him so she turned around and looked at him.

Jellal saw her face clearly. She has a short blonde hair and crimson red pupils. She carries a noble demeanor.

He frowned while looking at this woman. He felt a different aura coming out of her, clearly different from his pursuer.

“Sir, why are those people following you?” She asked while holding a beautiful flower.

Jellal didn’t say anything. He didn’t feel any emotions from her voice, no, it has a hint of it but it’s very vague. Something has happened to her to made her like this. That’s the conclusion he made in his mind.

She saw that he didn’t answer. “I will start at the introduction. I’m Valerie Tepes and who are you, sir?”
