Thiago piped up, “What do you know, you newbie? There’s no one else capable of pulling this off except Carla!”
Thiago was quick to pin the blame on Carla so he wouldn’t have to bear any responsibility himself.
Jared retorted, “Why would you think that only Carla could do this?”
“It’s simple! She’s the only one powerful enough to cause the fire source at the test site to surge and cause an explosion. No one else has that kind of skill,” Thiago replied with a cold snort.
Jared glared coolly at Thiago and returned, “Even without her capabilities, it’s not impossible to trigger an explosion from a fire aura. For example, if someone were to bring in an artifact imbued with a fire source and then release it into the air, couldn’t that also cause an aura surge that would lead to an explosion?”
Upon hearing this, Thiago instantly furrowed his brows. A hint of alarm flitted through his gaze.
Meanwhile, a wide-eyed Adan stared at Jared in utter disbelief.
No one saw me when I was acting. But how on earth does Jared know about this?
Rohan nodded and muttered, “Indeed, that could be a possibility.”
“Mr. Cunningham, don’t listen to these newbies’ nonsense. They’re all outer circle disciples; how could they possibly possess a magical time imbued with a fire source?” Thiago hurried to dissuade Rohan.
Jared pointed at Adan and suggested, “A quick search will reveal the truth. I suspect that Adan is carrying the magical item imbued with a fire source.”
“I d-d-don’t have it.”
A sputtering Adan hastily shook his head, his expression becoming incredibly flustered.
“You don’t have it? Really?” Jared asked with a mocking glint in his eyes. He stared at Adan and continued, “If you insist there’s nothing, why not let us search you to be sure-”
Thiago interjected to reprimand Jared, “You good-for-nothing! Just who do you think you are? Adan is the most senior outer circle disciple! How do you have the right to order a frisk on him?”
If they search Adan and find that bronze mirror, we’ll be in hot soup!
