Immortika suddenly stopped laughing upon hearing Jacob's words and scoffed, "Heh, as I've said before, every cause has an effect, and it's not my fault that Immortal-fellow is greedy. In fact, his current situation has nothing to do with me; he brought it upon himself."
Jacob was startled because Immortika might not have directly admitted it, but those ambiguous words clearly indicate that Jacob was right. It's just that there was more to the current situation than he knew.
Jacob asked with uncertainty, "What do you mean?"
"Hehe, that's for you to find out. At least until you retrieve the Longevity Path Glory Gem, I can't reveal these matters to you because I'm restricted. However, you have already gotten firsthand experience about the gist of it, and now it's on you how you'll use it to your advantage." Immortika curtly stated as if ending the topic without giving clear answers, as usual.
