Chapter 241 Hale's Surprise



Charles felt a bit bewildered. He had been in the trial tower all day and hadn\'t looked at any online information.

What on earth had happened?

He pulled out his phone and carefully checked the notifications. After a while, he finally figured out what was going on.

It seemed that some people felt the previous slanders were too mild and now wanted to bring in the families of the missing children to publicly accuse him during a live broadcast.

Charles took a deep breath. He knew very well that there was a good chance that those people pointing fingers at him were being threatened.

"Charles, aren\'t you worried?" the staff at the trial tower front desk asked, puzzled.

If it were anyone else in such a situation, they would definitely have lost it on the spot, their emotions in a frenzy. Yet, Charles\'s face remained calm.

As if everything were none of his business.

"It\'s nothing, just some minor issues. The innocent will clear their names." Charles replied.

In truth, he didn\'t care about what those people said because from the very beginning, his only aim was to save the missing children, everything else was irrelevant to him.

"Thank you for the reminder. I\'ll be leaving now." Charles said nonchalantly as he turned to walk away.

He hadn\'t had dinner yet, and after eating in the cafeteria, he would check out the so-called live broadcast to see what it was all about.

He was also curious about who would be slandering him in the live chat.

As a result, the students at Cyber Academy witnessed a strange scene.

While everyone else was concerned about the trending topics online and the upcoming live event, Charles was having dinner in the cafeteria as usual.

Some students were discussing:

"Only Charles could stay calm in the face of such a situation. I would have lost my mind by now!"

"Of course! You can\'t compare yourself to him. The stuff online is clearly a deliberate smear against Charles."

"Not necessarily. After all, they say they want to live stream to expose Charles\'s hypocrisy. They wouldn\'t say that without some confidence, would they?"

"What confidence could they possibly have? Unless they\'re using some underhanded tactics. Damn it, who is targeting Charles?"

"Sigh, once the live stream starts, Charles\'s reputation will probably be ruined. No one cares about whether it\'s true, they just want to vent their emotions."

"That\'s true. Is there really nothing we can do?"

Charles slowly walked out of the private room on the second floor of the cafeteria, heading toward the dormitory. He had just planned to take a short break before heading to the training room.

Unexpectedly, someone was already waiting for him at the dormitory entrance.

"Mr. Hale, is there something wrong?" Charles asked, a bit puzzled. Hale\'s expression was not good, he looked heavy and sad.

"Do you know about the situation online?" Hale asked with concern.

He didn\'t want Charles to feel sad or hurt because of this. Betrayal is something hard to accept for anyone who values relationships.

Right now, Charles seemed completely unfazed, probably because he hadn\'t had time to check the online information and was unaware of the situation.

However, to Hale\'s surprise, Charles replied, "Yeah, I know. What\'s the matter?"

"What? You already know?" Hale\'s eyes widened as he stared at Charles\'s calm face.

In Hale\'s mind, Charles\'s reaction shouldn\'t be like this.

After all, Charles was someone who valued emotions deeply, both toward him and Colton.

Given the current "farmer and snake" situation, he should be furious.

"Yeah, I found out right after I left the trial tower. Mr. Hale, you didn\'t think I couldn\'t handle it, did you? It\'s just a minor issue." Charles said, scratching his head.

He opened the dormitory door and invited Hale in, and they both sat down on the chairs.

Hale\'s attention was fully on Charles. He hesitated a bit before saying, "I have some news about this matter. The ones targeting you are from the Taylor family."

"And during the upcoming live stream, there will be two people in the broadcast: one named Mark and the other named Sam. They are the ones who posted the bounty task."

When Charles heard the names Mark and Sam, he paused for a moment, then asked curiously, "Those two?"

"Yes, it\'s them. They accepted the Taylor family\'s request. I don\'t know what they will say in the live stream, but it will probably be slanders against you." Hale nodded.

Charles thought for a moment, recalling his encounters with Mark and Sam. He slowly said:

"It\'s fine. I\'ll check out that live stream later and see what they say."

Hale was a bit anxious. He quickly said, "Charles, there\'s no need to let this affect your mindset."

"Affect my mindset? Mr. Hale, I\'m just a little curious. Isn\'t this kind of thing somewhat common?" Charles expressed his thoughts.

He wasn\'t an ordinary eighteen-year-old boy who would see the world as a wonderful place filled with sincere and kind people, idealizing everyone and everything.

That view belonged to the young, a talent as well as a flaw.

Although Charles was only eighteen, his soul came from another world, where he had long known that beneath the beautiful surface of reality lay countless dirty and rotten things.

"Do you really think that way?" Hale\'s mouth dropped open in surprise.

Charles nodded and explained, "I\'m just doing what I want to do. Saving those children is what I want, everything else doesn\'t concern me."

"But the families of those children you saved, they are ungrateful. Won\'t you feel betrayed?" Hale pressed.

Charles shook his head and answered earnestly:

"They haven\'t betrayed me, they\'ve betrayed themselves and the children. It doesn\'t really have much to do with me."

Hale was stunned. As a level six Beast Master and a teacher at Cyber Academy, he...

He found himself struggling to understand what Charles was saying.

What did it mean to betray oneself and the children?

After pondering a bit, Hale began to grasp the meaning behind Charles\'s words. He never expected that only eighteen-year-old Charles could articulate such thoughts.

It seemed he had underestimated Charles\'s mindset.

At that moment, Hale\'s phone suddenly rang, and he received a call.

"What! How could this happen? Is Jace okay? Wait for me, I\'m on my way." Hale said, standing up in shock.

Charles asked, "Mr. Hale, what\'s wrong?"

Hale looked at Charles with a complex expression. He paused for a moment before answering, "Jace is in a duel with a level four Beast Master and has been seriously injured. He\'s in the hospital receiving treatment."

"Jace? Dueling a level four Beast Master?" Charles said in disbelief.

If he remembered correctly, Jace was only a level three Beast Master right now.

Moreover, when faced with the ambush from [Constellation], Jace had given up resisting right away. How could he now have the courage to duel someone a level above him?

"Yes, Jace successfully challenged him two days ago and is now a student in Class A. You just haven\'t been to class, so you didn\'t know." Hale explained briefly.

He turned to leave immediately.

But Charles seemed to sense something. Remembering Hale\'s gaze from earlier, he followed him and continued to ask:

"What exactly is going on? Why did Jace choose to duel a level four Beast Master?"

Hale looked at the following Charles and sighed before explaining the situation.

It turned out that Jace was upset about people insulting and blaming Charles online.

He kept defending Charles and explaining things to those people, which led to a confrontation with an unreasonable level four Beast Master.

They ended up arguing and then directly arranged for an offline duel to prove that Charles wasn\'t as portrayed online.

If Jace won, the level four Beast Master would have to publicly admit his mistake and apologize online.

Upon hearing this, Charles slowed his pace. He didn\'t know why, but he felt an inexplicable emotion rising within him.

His impression of Jace was still from when he faced the ambush by the [Constellation] Beast Master. He never expected that Jace would now have the courage to duel a level four Beast Master for his sake!

The two of them rushed to the largest hospital in Genosha Calivia.

Outside a certain hospital room, Sadie anxiously paced back and forth in the corridor.

This was her first time encountering such a situation, and she had no choice but to call Mr. Hale, hoping he could come and help.

"How is it? Is Jace okay?" Hale\'s voice echoed from down the corridor.

Sadie looked like she had seen a savior and quickly replied, "Mr. Hale, please go in and check on him."

Charles and Hale hurried into the hospital room, only to see Jace wrapped in bandages, unconscious and unaware.

Hale carefully examined Jace\'s injuries and let out a slight sigh of relief, saying:

"It shouldn\'t be life-threatening, but he has severe injuries. His right arm is shattered, and he\'ll need to rest for a while."

Charles approached Jace\'s bedside and heard him mumbling something softly in his unconscious state.

Leaning in to listen closely, Charles froze in place.

"Win, won, apologize, apologize to Charles... I won."

He couldn\'t believe that even in a coma, Jace still wanted that level four Beast Master to apologize to him.

Just as Charles was in shock, a loud, arrogant voice echoed from the corridor:

"Damn it, where\'s that lunatic? He dares to ambush me, he\'s dead today!"

"That bastard, just a level three Beast Master, and he\'s willing to risk his life just to defeat me? I\'m going to teach him a lesson again!"
