Gazing at the man, Jared couldn't tell whether he was a soul remnant or a physical body. At that moment, he couldn't unleash his spiritual sense to ascertain that.
“We meant no offense, sir. Please forgive us,” he said, bowing at the man.
Regardless of the other person's identity, it was always wise to be polite first since it wasn't human nature to lash out at someone who was greeting the other with a smile.
Jared knew that he currently lacked power, so he had no choice but to humble himself. It was certainly not the time to show off then.
The man slowly turned around, his inscrutable eyes locking onto him.
Jared stared into his eyes fearlessly, ascertaining that he was nothing more than a soul remnant.
“You meant no offense?” The man slowly rose to his feet. “You two purposefully headed here, yet you claim to have meant no offense.”
Only then did Jared get a good look at him. He was cloaked in a long black robe that concealed his entire body. As he stood up, icy waves of lethal intent radiated off him.
Looking at his soul remnant, Jared wanted nothing more than to curse aloud. Cut the d*mn act!
If his strength hadn't been suppressed, he would have started doing so a long time ago.
But right then, he was at a disadvantage and had no choice but to act cowardly.
“Sir, we came here solely out of curiosity, with absolutely no other intentions,” Jared explained earnestly.
If the man were to make a move, he wasn't sure if he could handle it, so it was best not to provoke him.
“Yes, we were just curious. If it bothers you, we'll leave right away!”
Upon seeing that, Catalina quickly grabbed Jared, planning to leave immediately.
The man started, “You two want to leave? Without my permission, you won't be able to leave this place. And to be honest, you two being here is all my doing. Otherwise, why would others be unable to see this main hall?”
