This reaction made Whiteness's gaze snap down and then slowly lift back to Jacob, as he knew better than anyone that the hexagon compass's orientation was unmistakable.
Now, it was pointing directly at Jacob, and the realization crystallized instantly.
"…So, it's you," Whiteness whispered with startle and murderous certainty intertwining, "the heretic!"
'Heretic?' Jacob was startled when Whiteness called him "heretic," and his eyes compressed into condensed beams as he couldn't help but think, 'Is he referring to the Cursed One? Could he be another one of Destin Saint's minions or related to Immortal Nimrod? How did he find me so quickly!?'
His eyes shifted incisively to the hexagonal compass, which was shaking violently in Whiteness's hand. 'Don't tell me it's because of that disk!'
Apparently, Jacob was very sensitive to this topic, and with how strange Whiteness was behaving and that peculiar white 'disk' in his hand, he couldn't help but connect Whiteness with his enemies.
