A Man Like None Other (Jared Chance) novel Chapter 4125

Upon hearing a sound at the door, Viola didn’t turn around. Instead, she calmly asked, “Sigurd, have you asked when the Teleportation Array can be fixed?”

“Ms. Viola, I haven’t,” Sigurd said.

“Why haven’t you asked? Are we just going to wait here forever because the Teleportation Array can’t be fixed? Since when did you become so unreliable in handling matters?”

Viola seemed a bit upset.

“Ms. Viola, I ran into an acquaintance on the way, so I didn’t get to ask.”

“An acquaintance?” Viola briefly paused before continuing, “Since when did you have acquaintances in the central region?”

With a subtle smile, Sigurd said, “Ms. Viola, you know this acquaintance too.”

“I know them too? Who is it?” Viola, driven by curiosity, asked without even turning her head.

“It’s me…” Jared spoke.

Upon hearing Jared’s voice, Viola was taken aback, her body trembling in response. She tried to turn around, and when she indeed saw Jared in front of her, tears started to stream down her face.

Jared stepped forward, gently pulling Viola into his embrace.

Viola nestled into Jared’s arms, weeping incessantly. Neither of them spoke a single word.

Upon seeing the situation, Sigurd offered a slight smile. Then, he quietly stepped out, gently closing the door behind him.

Jared gently stroked Viola’s hair, wordlessly comforting her.

He then picked up Viola and gently placed her on the bed.

“Is this Alchemist Fair, essentially a gathering of alchemists from various regions in Ethereal Realm, for mutual learning and exchange of ideas?” Jared asked.

“Yes, the main idea is to learn from each other, to adopt the strengths of others, and to address our own weaknesses. However, there are also grand competitions among the alchemists, which could be considered a way of making friends through martial arts, I suppose. The Alchemist Fair isn’t like other gatherings hosted by cultivators, filled with constant fighting and killing. The competition at the Alchemist Fair is essentially a contest of alchemy techniques and tools. Actually, all these are about resources. After all, whether it’s about concocting elixirs or crafting tools, they all require a significant amount of resources.”

Of course, Jared knew that the competition among alchemists was merely a test of their alchemy skills, and it would never result in any violent incidents.

At that moment, Sigurd said, “Ms. Viola, I’ve checked it out. The Teleportation Array hasn’t been fixed yet, and the exact time of completion is uncertain!”
