He Became A Monstrous Genius After Obtaining A Time Dilation Artifact Chapter 381. Aftermath 4

The establishnt teed with liveliness.

Flashes of different lights reverberated everywhere.

Individuals from different races, in different kinds of clothes, jumped and danced in all sorts of ways to so electric pop music.

Sounds of glasses clanging and cheers — bellows of excitent — resonated in the nightclub.

🎶🎶🎶🎶

You gotta dance to the music.

Yeah, the sound is grooving 🎶🎶🎶

Grooving, grooving, grooving 🎶🎶🎶

In this establishnt, a youngster with a normal appearance that didn’t make him stand out in any way possible approached several individuals with different appearances than the one he recalled them having.

The four individuals — three gentlen and one lady — were seated in a round-table kind of couch, having a relaxing ti and conversing with one another, and another middle-aged fellow with a bald head.

The mont they noticed the youngster, smiles appeared on their faces.

This young man was naturally Kailen, who had changed his appearance on coming to this famous nightclub in the virtual universe because he didn’t want any unwanted attention — especially so fangirls telling him they wanted an autograph on their lons.

As for those he was eting, they had changed their appearances for similar reasons.

" You rotten bastard, co here!" Jackson bellowed — cheeks red from excitent and obviously alcohol.

" Thought you quit alcohol?" Kailen couldn’t help but tease him as he sat close to Bianca, where a seat had been reserved for him.

" Give a break, kid. We are here to celebrate you. A few rounds of whiskey won’t ruin my life."

Jackson raised the middle finger towards Kailen, then glanced at Bianca with a feigned hurt expression — one that made everyone laugh — after which he added,

" A pretty lady cos into the equation and you abandon your master? Sit there by her side. Arrie will hear of this."

Before Kailen could even prepare a shaless response, soone beat him to it.

" As if he even got the ti to ever play the role of a master, tsk! The kid trained himself. Stop using him to shine and have one-night stands. Vampire pervert."

Bianca couldn’t help but snort mockingly at Jackson.

Kailen made an ’oh’ expression in realization, then gave Jackson a ’disgusted’ glance.

Jackson raised his arms helplessly.

" Look, I’m not a pervert, okay? Just an old vampire trying to have the ti of his life. Anyway, if there’s a pervert here, it’s this old fellow."

Everyone turned to look at Old Ha, who had donned the appearance of a bald man.

The old bastard had just exchanged digits with so lady who had walked off, winking at him.

" Yeah, so what? Don’t give so crap about being so shitty role model for you kids. Yolo."

The old fellow hissed and banged the glass on the table after downing a shot of soju.

" Pfttt! This old fucker is too shaless," Cyco sighed.

" No wonder Jackson ended up like this," Nuel couldn’t help but slap the back of Jackson’s head.

" You n are really disgusting."

Bianca couldn’t help but chuckle at their playful antics.

" At least I did not take after the two of them, that’s a relief," Kailen added, ’relieved’.

" You little shit... So what am I, a bad role model?"

Jackson downed another glass of whiskey, staring at Kailen with a shaless smirk.

He added, " Well, then I take after this bald old bastard."

" And I’ve never been prouder," Old Ha replied shalessly — spittle flying all over.

" It was my bad manners imparted to you that led you to this, kid. Inasmuch as I lost my wife, and my children are far off sowhere exploring the universe without , not bothering to worry about whether or not I even exist... at least I have a grand disciple better than them."

He joked righteously, but everyone noticed the tone of lancholy — the tone of loneliness in his voice when he spoke of his children, and the love layered beneath his voice when he spoke of his wife.

Old Ha added, " I’m sorry I almost ruined the mood. Anyway, we’ve never been prouder, kid."

Everyone realized the old man had a complicated past with his children that he didn’t want to bring up, so he changed the topic.

Also, Old Ha knew they were here to celebrate Kailen, so he didn’t want to ruin the atmosphere with his personal matters.

They would have offered a listening ear, but since the old man didn’t want to talk, they respected him enough to not pry.

Kailen couldn’t help but squint his eyes slightly. Old Ha’s emotions when he ntioned his children — guilt and regret.

’What kind of history does he have with his children to make him feel this way?’ Kailen sighed inwardly.

’ I suppose I could find out about it from him later personally. Or I should wait for him to open up when he’s ready — yeah, that’s more mature.’

" Yeah, we have never been more prouder."

" Saul and Selena would be very proud of you."

" Especially after seeking retribution for them."

" Honestly, anything we hear about you is shocking, kid. Just when we feel like we are getting used to your absurdities, you do sothing to ss with our worldview again."

Kailen basked in the complints of his seniors.

Conversations went on and on.

Kailen even brought up the rumors of Jackson’s feats — of slaughtering rank 1 beginner-stage galactic-level Vimodial contractors — sothing Jackson brushed off, saying that compared to Kailen’s feat, what he had achieved was nothing.

" I heard you are also a Black Flask?" Kailen asked, curious.

Everyone turned to look at Jackson, waiting for a response.

If this was the case, then it would be very terrifying.

Having two Black Flasks in the circle would be really terrifying!

" I’m not a Black Flask."

Before anyone — apart from Kailen, who could tell he was telling the truth — could deny what he said, he replied with sothing unexpected.

" I have a second affinity, and it’s poison."

" Why did you never tell us?" Bianca asked the question on everyone’s mind.

Even Old Ha, Jackson’s master, was shocked.

From the expression on his face, it was obvious that he was in the dark about this as well.

With all eyes on him, Jackson replied,

" I just didn’t find the right ti to showcase it. Also, about not telling you, I just didn’t find the right ti to tell you guys, that’s all. There’s no special reason."

Everyone knew he was not lying here. Jackson was being sincere and was not hiding anything.

" I never intended to hide it from anyone though, else I would have never used it openly in the first place," he continued.

" So people just misunderstood my poison affinity and made a connection that I’m a Black Flask. They made a false connection between the use of my poison affinity recently in so situations on the battlefield and the fact that I’m an alchemist. That’s why there are rumors of being a Black Flask circulating around."
