Chapter 5300 (Five Thousand Three Hundred) Approaching
The Gray Hand said, “When they asked you if you really thought they were afraid of you, you must have said yes, right?”

“Yes,” the man said, “I just said yes.”

The Gray Hand Man said again: “What was the next reaction of the voice?”

“Next… that voice told me that they are not afraid.” said the man.

“What did you do after hearing this?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I…I just told them they were afraid.” the man replied.

The Gray Hand asked again: “Is the other party angry?”

“From the sound of it, it seems… he’s not angry.” said the man.

“So what did you say?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

The man said, “The other party… said to me in this tone: ‘How could I be afraid of you?’ I didn’t hear any anger, but… but the tone seemed to be mocking me. This made me even more… angry.”

The Gray Hand Man said, “Are you showing that you are even angrier?”

“It showed.” The man said, “I said in a very arrogant tone…that they…of course they were afraid of me.”

The man said: “What is the other party’s reaction at this time?”

“It seems like… he laughed.” The man said, “I seemed to hear the other party’s laughter, but… I’m not sure. The sound… was quite strange.”

“Didn’t the other party speak to you at this time?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“No.” The man said, “That’s why I’m even angrier.”

The Gray Hand asked again, “What did you say?”

“I said… they only dared to look at me secretly, and they… didn’t dare… to come out.” said the man.

“Did you hear a response from the other party?” the Gray Hand asked. “The other party didn’t respond to me by speaking.” The man said, “but I seemed to hear a sound.”

The Gray Hand Man said, “What’s that sound?”

“It sounds like laughter.” said the man.

“Is it the same as before?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“Not… exactly the same.” The man said, “This time… it’s not as much like laughter as last time. But… apart from explaining it as laughter, I… don’t know how to explain it. Apart from being close to laughter, I… can’t think of any other sound it’s close to, but… but it’s definitely not as close to laughter as last time.”

The Gray Hand Man asked again, “What did you say?”

“I said they are just… this kind of people.” said the man.

The Gray Hand asked, “What kind of people are you talking about?”

“That’s right… they just said that I can’t control my own people.” said the man.

“Do you think the other party can understand what you mean?” asked the Gray Hand Man.

“I think… the other party should be able to hear what I said next.” The man said, “Before I said the next sentence, the other party didn’t react. Since I couldn’t even hear the sound that sounded like laughter this time… I… I was a little worried that the other party would no longer pay attention to me.”

The Gray Hand asked again: “What did you say at this time?”

That person said: “I said they are the ones who can’t control themselves.”

The Gray Hand asked, “Did the other party speak again this time?”

“No sound.” The man said, “So I’m even more worried. I’m worried that it will be silent next time… I’m worried that it will be like before… No one will pay attention to me and it will make me feel even more tortured. So… I decided to speak in a more intense tone.”

The Gray Hand asked, “What did you say in a more intense tone?”
