The Cause of the Fire

"Hanji, you know it very well. That all of this. All of this is actually your doing! I may be heartless but you're the criminal here not me!!"

"Shut up!!", Hanji yelled. Jin was surprised at Hanji's sudden yell at the owner. The man was still smiling.

"Okay now listen up! Everything that you did today!!", the man said.

"Shut up! You're a demon!!", Hanji yelled again. He clearly didn't like what the man was about to say.

"No that's wrong my boy. You're the demon here. You're the one who killed so many people in the most painful way!"

"I told you to shut up, didn't I!?", Hanji was furious as he tried attacking the owner.

He couldn't really do any damage to the huge and tall man with his frail and weak body. The owner kicked him in a flash. Hanji fell down at some distance. Jin was standing surprised at everything that's going on.

"No use my boy. You're too weak to even touch me", the man said looking at Hanji. It seemed like he was pitying him.

"Hey, what's going on!?", Jin interrupted this time.

"You don't worry. It's a matter between the two of us", the man replied Jin quite calmly.

"Okay, I understand. But I certainly think you shouldn't be physically abusing someone else especially when that person looks extremely weak."

"I wasn't planning on doing that. But that wimp also has a weak mind, not just a weak body", the man looked at Hanji. He was seen lying down crying. Jin felt somewhat bad for him, but he was also feeling like Hanji actually got what he deserved. He really was being a bit too arrogant.

"Anyway, it's a bit too late of me introducing myself, I hope you didn't mind anything. I'm Edward Col and I'm the owner of this shipyard or maybe I should say I used to be", the man introduced himself in a very polite manner.

"Okay and I'm Jin", Jin said calmly.

"So Jin it's very nice to meet you. Now tell me does your sorcery or...ahh I forgot the term..."

"Teleportation."

"Right! So tell me does that really work? Teleportation!"

"Of course it does work."

"So you can save me right? Using your technique."

"Yeah. It's not a problem", Jin started felling the conversation to be a little bit fishy from this point onward.

"Come on then. Let's get out together. I'll give you great rewards if you can do that."

"I don't mind doing that. But before that you tell me something."

"What is it?"

"The Cause of the Fire."
