SWNOVELS Chapter 8: The Basic Requirement of Being a Cripple
In the meantime, Jacob was strolling around Riverside University.
According to his observations, Riverside University was the place with the densest mana in the vicinity. Thanks to his perception of mana, Jacob found the place with the densest mana in Riverside University. He sat down and began to sense the mana on the Earth, absorbing it strand by strand.
He remained motionless, like a monk who was meditating.
Jacob didn't open his eyes until the next morning.
A hint of surprise and joy flashed through his eyes.
He had absorbed mana throughout the night, but the mana that he had absorbed into his body had all disappeared.
Only then did Jacob realize that all the mana he had inhaled had been absorbed by the Chaos Pearl.
Jacob was pleasantly surprised by this discovery.
He wasn't afraid that the Chaos Pearl would absorb his energy, but he was afraid that the Chaos Pearl wouldn't react.
After an entire night of hard work, the Chaos Pearl, which had absorbed much energy, finally reacted.
A strand of power of chaos was emitted from the Chaos Pearl and got into Jacob's body.
This strand of power of chaos made Jacob instantly rise from the Phase of Perception that could sense the mana on the Earth to the Gasification Phase that could refine the mana on the Earth. This was not that much of a surprise to Jacob.
The Chaos Pearl did live to its reputation as one of the most precious treasures of chaos.
A gleam flashed across Jacob's eyes. In this life, with the Chaos Pearl in his hand, he was destined to cultivate the power of chaos and once again dominate those planets, making the entire universe tremble. "However, this is too slow."
Jacob sighed.
The mana on the Earth was too thin.
It took an entire night for the Chaos Pearl to produce a strand of power of chaos.
Jacob thought of the dark mana in Aaron's body, and he had complicated feelings.
"Jacob."
Jacob suddenly heard someone calling him.
He looked in the direction of the sound.
Jacob was surprised when he saw the person.
It was Hayley.
Recalling how Hayley and her mother, Fiona, had worked together to drive him out of the house yesterday, Jacob sneered.
Among the three women of his family, he only had a good impression of his wife, Kaley.
"Did you offend Galip yesterday?"
Hayley ran all the way over. She was so tired that she panted heavily, and her chest moved up and down as she breathed.
Without waiting for Jacob to reply, she said, "Galip's younger brother, Sharif, is the chairman of the Boxing Club. Someone who saw you already told him that you were here. He was heading here with his people from the Boxing Club, saying that he wants to teach you a lesson for his brother."
"Jacob, run. Leave the university through the back door right now. Otherwise, it will be too late!"
Hayley said anxiously. Yesterday, Jacob had saved her father with his medical skills, which made her like him a little bit.
Of course, she wasn't worried about Jacob. Jacob's safety had nothing to do with her.
But Jacob was Kaley's husband. If those people beat the shit out of Jacob, it would affect the reputation of her sister, and even of her family.
"Is that so?"
Jacob smiled to show that he didn't care at all. And he didn't have the slightest intention of running away.
Seeing that he didn't care, Hayley was furious.
"Would you please don't humiliate our family? Are you trying to embarrass our family because my sister wants to divorce you?"
Hayley was enraged by Jacob.
Jacob glanced at her coldly. "Regardless of your intention, I am grateful to you for notifying me. However, if you continue to put on airs, don't blame me for being rude."
"You..."
Hayley regretted coming here. Jacob deserved to be beaten to death.
"Hayley, how dare you come here to tip him off?"
"Are you into this loser like your sister?"
"The women in your family have a special taste. I'll never understand why you would take a fancy to such trash."
A young man with a short hair-cut and a fierce look rushed over with a dozen sidekicks.
"Sharif, watch your mouth."
Hayley looked at Sharif angrily.
She blamed the trash Jacob. If he had run away, she wouldn't be standing here humiliated by Sharif.
Although Sharif wouldn't lay a hand on her, he was good at insulting people verbally. This was well known in the university.
The girls who offended him could be driven mad by his words.
All the boys who offended him would end up lying in hospital.
"You bark like a crazy dog."
Jacob said slowly.
As soon as he finished, everyone was silent.
Everyone, including Hayley, looked at Jacob in shock.
How dare Jacob say that to Sharif!
He was courting death!
"What did you just say?"
"If you have the balls, say it again."
A fierce look flashed across Sharif's face as he walked towards Jacob step by step, his eyes filled with violence.
"You want to hear it again? Fine."
"Listen carefully. You bark like a crazy dog. How is it? Do you feel good now?"
Jacob curled his lips.
"Good, very good."
Sharif stared at Jacob.
In his eyes, Jacob was already a disabled man.
He swore he would break Jacob's legs today.
On the other hand, Hayley's eyes widened in disbelief.
Was this still that cowardly Jacob?
When did he become so brave?
Was he courting death?
"Now, I'll give you two choices. First, kneel down and apologize to me, beg for my mercy. Then, go to apologize to my brother and beg for his mercy. Second, I break your legs." Sharif stared at Jacob with a ferocious gleam in his eyes, ready to beat this man at any second.
"I still have two choices?"
Jacob faked a surprised expression. Then, he smiled and said, "However, I only intend to give you one choice."
"Since you like to use force so much, you should be a cripple for the rest of your life."
Was Jacob crazy?
Everyone was once again shocked by Jacob.
This man was truly not afraid of death.
"You're courting death! I'll give you what you wish!"
Sharif's face turned cold as he threw a punch at Jacob.
He believed he could take down this kind of trash with one punch.
Seeing Sharif strike out, Hayley's face turned pale and she didn't dare to see what would happen to Jacob.
"Ouch..."
A miserable scream came.
Hayley could imagine Jacob's miserable ending. Her heart tightened. She hated Jacob very much, but Jacob was still a family, her sister's husband in name. What's more, he had saved her father. No matter how much she despised or disliked Jacob, she couldn't watch Jacob being crippled by Sharif.
She immediately turned around, ready to take action.
However, she was shocked by what she saw.
...
What did she see?
Jacob was standing unharmed on the spot.
On the other hand, Sharif was lying on the ground in front of Jacob. His body constantly twitched as he gritted his teeth in pain.
There was more than that.
"What are the requirements to be a cripple? You have to have disabled hands, right?"
With that, Jacob kicked Sharif on the arm.
The bone was cracked.
Sharif let out another miserable scream.
Sharif's hands were fractured.
"Having two broken hands doesn't make you a cripple yet. Your legs have to be crippled as well to meet the basic requirements of a cripple."
Jacob muttered to himself.
At the same time, his foot moved again.
Sharif's knee bones were shattered.
Only then did Jacob smile with satisfaction.
'Those who have picked on me already ended up either dead or crippled.'
He meant it when he said so.
Jacob looked up at the dozen or so people Sharif had brought here. They were all in a daze.
"You trash, why don't you come at me together? Anyway, I want to stretch my muscles." Jacob's words seemed to have come from the Abyss of Devils, causing one to tremble with fear. The people Sharif brought along trembled when they heard that.
Was he kidding?
Who was Sharif?
Not to mention his family background, he was the chairman of the Boxing Club in the school.
The champion of the University Boxing League of Riverside City.
The runner-up of the University Boxing Super League of North Riverside Province.
Usually, beating them was like trampling on ants to him.
But now, in front of Jacob, he was beaten like a dog.
What's more, Jacob was ruthless.
He had crippled Sharif's hands and legs.
Who would dare to get near him?☐☐
