Chapter 2 Eye for an Eye

“J… Jacob, is that really you? You… You’re back!” Franklin was excited to see the young man. However, he still felt that it was very surreal.

Jacob looked up with remorse-filled eyes and said, “Dad, I’m back! I am a terrible son for letting you suffer all these years!”

After stabbing the official that tried to assault Naeve, Jacob escaped out of the outland to avoid dragging his family into trouble.

Life in the outland was not easy even though Jacob had the Secret Record of the War Deity. He had experienced numerous close brushes with death.

Thus, the stubborn will to live and the powers from the Secret Record of the War Deity enabled him to escape death time after time.

In that six years, Jacob made his mark in various regions of the outland. He defeated all his enemies no matter where he went. It did not matter whether they were from thousand-year-old prominent families or sects with a long history.

Jacob managed to defeat them and attain prestige.

Jacob looked guilty as he said, “Dad, I am sorry!”

In the first two years Jacob left, he had to constantly struggle to survive. Thus, he did not have the liberty to consider sending a message home.
