The angry expression on Jannan's face had disappeared.
After listening to Rees's words, he had become eerily calm, not growing angrier as the other had expected.
It wasn't that he agreed with the other's words.

"I don't know what they've told you, but Rees, the truly naive one is you. Do you really think that with these monsters you've created, you could achieve this so-called destruction and rebirth? Stop dreaming."
Jannan shook his head slightly, showing disdain for the other's recent words.
Seeing his expression, Rees felt enormously humiliated and suddenly burst into great anger.
