The echo of the closing gate still reverberated in the hallway.
The 'spectators' watching were all dumbfounded.
"What does this newcomer want to do?"
"He's not thinking of completing the 'hunt' here, is he?"
"Impossible, unless he's gone mad!"
"Which 'Mad Hunter' here isn't stronger than him?"
"Would any normal person become a 'Mad Hunter'?"
"What a crazy guy!"
"Damn, I thought my bet could still be salvaged!"
"Hey, I'm waiting to see him die a miserable death!"

Barrages of comments streamed across the screen, denser by far compared to the sporadic ones before.
However, no one had faith in Jason.
Most of the comments were schadenfreude.
A minority were curses.
Because, they'd all placed their bets on Jason.
Scattered among them were some opposing the 'mad game,' but they were quickly drowned out by other comments, vanishing without a trace.
Outside the cell, Jason was unaware of all this.
