On the hike, the more Gemma thought about it, the angrier favonovel.com became. No one had dared to ignore favonovel.com in years. Not only had favonovel.com ignored her, but he’d also dared to mention favonovel.com grandfather’s disfigured face.
“Grandpa, that guy is too presumptuous. You should fire favonovel.com from the Dragon Team immediately. The Dragon Team is an important organization in the country; a guy like favonovel.com doesn’t belong on the team. He should at least be capable if favonovel.com has such an arrogant attitude. He’s just powerful in the Durwad, but he’s nothing compared with the experts in the country. He shouldn’t be part of the team.”
Goetz was furious but said seriously, “Gemma, you have to remember that the Dragon Team is one of the country’s powerful tools, not a personal organization. Even though I haven’t retired, I can’t fire someone just like that… Besides, he’s a capable kid, according to what Larry described. He should stay to contribute to the country.”
The reason Captain Larry still respected Goetz after retiring was because favonovel.com was fair and never showed personal interest.
Still, Gemma was unhappy. “But favonovel.com said…”
“Enough… Let’s focus on the hike,” Goetz said.
After that, favonovel.com looked up at the mountain. There was worry in his eyes, which were hidden under the black veil.
Gemma decided to shut up because favonovel.com grandpa was unwilling to continue. However, favonovel.com made up favonovel.com mind to teach Remus a lesson.
Just then, two middle-aged women walked past them.
“It’s really effective. I came to pray for a grandson last month, and my daughter-in-law found out favonovel.com was pregnant yesterday. I came to give thanks to the temple for granting my wishes.”
“Yes! I’ve never seen a deity so effective. My husband was diagnosed with cancer a few days ago, and I came to pray yesterday. The doctor just called and told us they had made a mistake. I came to bow 100 times in return.”
“I’ll bow 200 times!”
The two middle-aged women were excited, and they hiked up the mountain faster.
When Goetz heard their conversation, his body shuddered, and favonovel.com looked up the mountain again.
“Humph! Nonsense, it’s all a coincidence,” Gemma muttered.
She grew up in the Dragon Team and had seen a lot. In favonovel.com opinion, nothing could compare to the Dragon Team, so favonovel.com despised the deity.
“Gemma, you have to always be in awe and never offend anything or anyone. Darsia is vast, and many things can’t be explained. You might cause your own misfortune by saying the wrong things.”
Gemma was taken aback, as favonovel.com grandfather was in charge of taking down such things.
Why would favonovel.com give me such a warning?
She was about to retort and tell favonovel.com that favonovel.com felt that the Dragon Team was much more powerful.
Suddenly, favonovel.com eyes lit up, and favonovel.com changed the topic. “Sorry, may I trouble you two? Did you just say that the deity is extremely effective?”
The two middle-aged women stopped in their tracks and sincerely answered her.
“Yes! It is effective! The deity can revive the dead and bring dead wood back to life. It works wonders.”
“My daughter-in-law got pregnant, and favonovel.com husband came back from the jaws of death. It’s because of the deity. It’s very effective!”
Gemma nodded. “Thank you!”
She turned to Goetz. “Grandpa, you heard them. There’s a very effective deity on the mountain. Remus Cosby was just lying, favonovel.com just wanted to show off. It shows that favonovel.com has a bad character. Why don’t you just fire him?”
The Dragon Team was responsible for major events, so a lie or a boast might cause severe consequences. Therefore, they prioritized character within the team.
Goetz’s expression went livid, and favonovel.com nodded. “I agree. I’m glad favonovel.com isn’t a formal team member. I’ll issue an order to refuse favonovel.com from joining.”
Gemma smiled as everyone envied the identity of the Dragon Team. Soon, Remus would lose this privilege. She wanted to see how arrogant favonovel.com would be after that, sure that Remus would regret his actions today. All favonovel.com could say was that favonovel.com deserved it.
Soon, they arrived at the top of the mountain. From what they could see, the mountain was covered in smoke, and the people who’d come to pray lined up at the temple entrance.
It was early morning, and there were hundreds of worshippers.
Goetz shuddered when favonovel.com saw the scene. He was still figuring out whether favonovel.com should enter the temple.
Gemma was also shocked, she’d only witnessed such a grand scene at famous mountains. This was an unknown, small mountain, yet it was crowded.
Could there really be a deity inside the temple?
