The guy with the book aimed the blade towards Jack, and the half-human whispered, "Don't do it, they'll be upset."

"Do you think I gave a fuck if they got furious or not!" the guy roared at the half-human. They removed him from my presence! They fucking stole him away from me!" Then he aimed the blade at Jack again, yelling violently, "I have to destroy his existence to be free of all of this."

"I never believed you'd do this," the half-human remarked.

"What am I meant to do, huh?" shouted the guy.

"You told me you want to find peace and make the world a better place, and that's not the appropriate approach to this," the half-human stated.

"You think you can terrify me?" shouted Jack. "I believe I can take you both!"

The guy laughed before opening a blue gateway and saying, "You think?" "How stupid," he said, before proceeding to the blue gateway with the half-human.

"Hey wait, don't run from me, come here and fight me!" shouted Jack.

Then he heard Howard say from the window, "Jack hurry up."

"You think I'm weak?" Jack says as he packs his belongings. Just wait until I become older! And what's the deal with your unkempt hair?" He then descends the steps.

Jack would live with Howard for a bit after that. After a few days, Jack and Howard went to the store where Howard's mother instructed them to buy food for supper. The shopkeeper knew Howard and what he needed, but there was something the shopkeeper didn't have, so Howard instructed Jack to go buy it from the shop at the beginning of the bridge, "there." And Jack did what he was instructed.

"What are you looking for, boy?" The shopkeeper inquired.

He was completely white, with long black hair and a cat's face.

"You look strange," Jack observed. Laughing.

"Just call me Mr. big-cat," the owner responded.

"OK, Mr. big-weird-face," Jack replied. "I'd like three apples."

"What's your name, boy?" Mr. big-cat inquired.

"I sense a gloomy feeling emanating from your heart; are you okay, boy?"

"I'm Jack, just give me the goddamn apple," Jack said. Nervous.

Mr. Big Cat handed him the apples and said, " You're around fifteen, right?" I believe you have heard the legend of the four Arcana who protect the spirit realm from evil.

"How did you know my age?" Jack asked.

Then Jack remarked, "Never mind you are such a strange mister," and proceeded to catch up with Howard.

"Oh, it doesn't appear so. See you later, youngster."

"What's up, Jack?" Howard said. "That shopkeeper seems so strange," Jack responded.

“Look. There.” Jack made a gesture.

"There's no one there, Jack," Howard remarked. Jack appeared to be insane.

"What?" said Jack. "How come he was there only a second ago?"

"Let's just go home, come on, let's go home," Howard remarked.

While they were strolling through town, a man smacked his head on a wall; Howard approached him and asked, "Hey, sir, are you all right?"

The man had gone mad. He snatched Howard's t-shirt and shouted, "Don't go there, don't even think of going there!"

"Get off me, you lunatic!" shouted Howard.

Jack hit the crazed guy on the leg, and Jack and Howard rushed away from him.
