Sam didn"t speak on his way back. Jack is even more nervous and he didn"t even dare to breathe.
Now only did he understand what kind of freaks he is accompanying. He kind of know what Sam is like.
But he never thought that Watt is this dangerous. He didn"t even flinch when his face is being flayed. Even though, Jack didn"t see the process, he saw the injuries after he came out.
He is like some kind of psycho.
This Boss and subordinate are both one of a kind.
Day by day, he is feeling more and more glad that he didn"t make Sam his enemy. But now that he knew a lot of his secrets, he is getting worried.
Even though, he knew that Sam trusts him, there is a small fear deep inside, if one day if he ever become suspicious and Sam decides to eliminate him, does he have a chance to escape?
Sam also guessed what he is thinking, but he didn"t have time to care about what is going on his mind.
He is currently thinking about his past life, he did see a character similar to Watt, in fact he is the same person he remembered when he saw the two escaping siblings in the six months isolation compet.i.tion.
He never thought, he would another person like this, he desperately needs to find a way to vent out his emotions otherwise, he wouldn"t be normal anytime soon.
After entering his mansion, Sam entered the tower and holed up for some time, he forged, started fighting the simulated battle, he only came out after he was completely exhausted.
Watt is sitting still in his room since he came back. He might have put up a strong front but he did take a lot of damage, he is completely exhausted both mentally and physically.
A lot has happened within a day.
When Sam came out, he went to the backyard near the lake, he didn"t wear his coat, his pants and even his vest.
He sat in his shorts while keeping as he placed his legs inside the lake.
His upper body is n.a.k.e.d as he felt the cold breeze on his scar filled skin. The scars from the battle with Cougar family are all there, which he deliberately left.
He started at the starry sky as he tried to blank his thoughts.
Inside the mansion, all the people are thinking on what happened to Sam, they knew that Sam got a call from the Marquis while Jack and Watt went to do something he instructed.
They went on with their daily routine and when they were wondering what happened to them, three of them came together but they were surprised to see their condition.
Sam"s expression is cold, Jack seemed to frightened completely as for Watt, he is completely exhausted, even the playful Philip didn"t dare to fool around.
After a long while, they rounded up Jack with a barrage of question, which he wasn"t able to answer at all, if their operation against black water is informed to them, he didn"t even know how they would react and he didn"t even want to tell them.
In actual fact, it is his revenge plan and now it almost became war between Sam and the Black Water.
At least he played a part in the Count cities, but now he didn"t even know what to make of today"s situation.
He is even thinking of asking Sam to stop this, but he didn"t know how to approach this topic.
After fending off all the members by evading their questions, but there is one concern, Sam is staying at the lake for long and he didn"t know if he should approach him.
So, since he didn"t dare to approach, there is one thing he can do and that is to inform Watt who is the centre of the situation.
Sam became like this after he saw how Watt suffered.
So, all he can do is let them solve this matter themselves.
When Watt heard that Sam is like this, he went towards the lake.
When Sam heard the footsteps, he didn"t even turnaround to look at who it is, because, he knew that only Watt can dare to meet him when he is in this condition.
Watt stopped a few steps away from him, Sam laid down on his back as he gestured Watt to sit.
He sat down and didn"t say anything, after a brief silence, Sam started speaking.
"Watt, have you ever wondered why I am like this?"
Watt didn"t answer at all, though he was confused what is his boss talking.
"Have you ever wondered why a fifteen-year-old country b.u.mpkin have these many abilities, who can forge, can fight, has these many trump cards? Didn"t you even have a single doubt at all?"
"Those are irrelevant to me." This time Watt answered. Even if the answer is short, Sam got the point.
What is the point of wondering and doubting where his boss got his abilities? He is still his boss no matter what. There is no use pondering things that are irrelevant to him.
"I don"t belong to this world." Sam suddenly said. He desperately wants to let this out, but he didn"t find a person who is worthy of this trust.
Watt was stunned for a second but didn"t know what to say. Sam continued.
"You may not believe me, but I am from a different world. There one"s financial strength, cunning mind, excellent intelligence, wit all of these trumps one"s physical strength, there is only one exception though, if your physical strength is the top of the world then only there would be a chance for that person.
Normal fighters are only for people"s entertainment, the more stronger fighters are for rich people"s beck and call.
In that world, a normal seventy year old man without any physical strength to walk on his own can acc.u.mulate the wealth with only his wit, a person like that rules over the commoners without them even knowing that he is playing with their lives and the most pitiful thing is, he can even order around a prideful soldier who can kill himself for sake of his country without batting an eye.
That world is a place where a normal person lives peacefully by trusting the laws.
And the ironic thing is that they don"t know that people who make the laws for them don"t even care about the very laws they make.
The world where a person is distinguished by a very fickle quality called wealth.
But in that same fickle world, there is no difference between the two extremes, the extreme point on the top with full of money and power and the lowest extreme point where people kill each other for a piece of bread."
Sam paused for a second and took a deep breath as he remembered his life on earth. Watt however, was stunned, because, he can never imagine that kind of place, how can there be a wealthy person without any physical strength.
In this world, he would be killed in a second for his wealth.
But Sam continued his story.
"In that world, I lived in all stages of society, I climbed my way through the ranks, I had many ident.i.ties, when I am at my peak, in the world of light my single thought was worth fortunes and in the dark world my single word is law.
But in both worlds, I lost two most important people, the first one in the dark world, he died protecting me, and the second one in the light world, because I was unable to protect her.
After taking revenge for them, I lost all the reason for living, you know, when I was about to die, I really don"t have any regrets, I am also quite happy that maybe just maybe if there was an afterlife, I could meet these two people.
But the reality slapped me in the face.
Just after I died, a bloke who I never saw, whose power is beyond my imagination, just placed me in this world without even giving me a reason.
At first, I just wanted to live this life just for the sake of living, but the thought that someone just put me here without even my consent almost killed me, that is the only reason that kept me moving forward.
To find out why I am here and if the reason is worth it or not, but today I found another reason to live."
He sat up and looked at horizons, before speaking.
"I don"t know if I am a person worth dying for, but I would consider I am not, however, you are ready to do that, so I think even if whatever reason I am here for is worth it or not I think you are worth living and accompanying for.
A man like you, who knows how to repay a drop of water with a spring, is worth more than any reason."
Sam stood up and Watt followed suit.
He took out a red coloured metallic card and pa.s.sed it to Watt, there is Watt"s W symbol on one side and Sam"s symbol on the other.
"I don"t know how you see me as, boss, friend, relative, whatever it is, remember that for me from now on you are irreplaceable. You will always be my side no matter how far I reach, no matter what I face I will face it with you."
