It was Vasily, who was saved by Jared at the arena.
After spotting Jared, Vasily promptly kneeled before him. “Please accept my gratitude for saving me, my hero!”
Jared was stunned, and he gently lifted Vasily. “It was nothing, my good man. You don't need to thank me for saving your life like this.”
“I'm from the far north, my hero. There, the resources are scarce, and the people are poor. That's why I don't have anything valuable on me to thank you for. If you don't mind, please accept this emerald badge I have in my possession.” Vasily removed a chipped emerald badge from his pocket and handed it to Jared.
Jared shook his head and rejected hastily, “As I've said, you don't need to thank me. Saving you was no big deal. I can't accept this.”
Just as Jared's finger touched Vasily's emerald badge, a cold sensation jolted through his body.
Shock filled his eyes.
After all, within Jared's body lay the demonic fire, which prevented even Jerison's ice from freezing him.
That was why Jared was taken aback that the chipped emerald badge before him possessed such great power.
