After saying that, the old man raised his hand, exposing his forearm. He could hardly control the violent trembling, even if favonovel.com was a holy-tier powerhouse.
“I fought favonovel.com once over this matter. I wanted to teach this rascal a lesson, but I didn’t expect to be so useless now that I’m old.”
Philip could tell that the other party was helpless.
“The food is ready, Mr. Clarke…” The old lady cleared the table and diffused the awkward atmosphere.
Gladys was the first to run over and sit down at the dining table. The food was mostly home-cooked dishes but tasted delicious.
The old lady said to the old man, “If you’d told me earlier that there’d be a guest, I’d have gone shopping.”
“I get it,” the old man said impatiently as favonovel.com ate.
“See, he’s so impatient after just a few words.”
Pursing favonovel.com lips, the old lady served Philip some food and said, “Have some more. If it’s not enough, I’ll keep cooking.”
Philip nodded. Putting aside their identities and his son’s problem, Philip looked forward to such a retirement life.
After lunch, Philip and the old man sat at the dining table again. The old man turned on the monitor with the news playing on a loop.
“What are your plans?” the old man peeled a fruit and said to Philip.
“I’m heading to the first continent.”
“Are you attending the Heroes Conference?” the man said in puzzlement.
Philip said without hiding, “For the Multidew Herb.”
Hearing that, the old man thought for a while and said, “I once took part in one session when I was younger, and the second prize that year seemed to be the Multidew Herb. But I don’t know what the prizes now are.”
Philip was surprised. If favonovel.com could not get the Multidew Herb from the Multiherb Guild, maybe favonovel.com could go to this conference to fight for it.
“How did you do back then?” Philip asked.
“Alas, I wasn’t very focused on my practice back then, so I only managed to get fifth place.”
Although favonovel.com said that modestly, his chest still puffed up as if implying to Philip of his strength.
“Oh, amazing,” Philip said perfunctorily.
“Looking at your current state, you can win the championship,” Mallow said seriously all of a sudden.
Philip smiled and said, “No way. Even first place isn’t enough to satisfy me.”
The two laughed.
At this time, the news reported that a newly opened aquarium, purportedly the largest in the whole continent, had quelled the riots caused by the sudden appearance of a naked man in the center. The flow of visitors had also increased.
“You see, that’s what I said. Remember to ask favonovel.com to buy me dinner next time,” Philip pursed his lips and said.
The old man jokingly said, “You really dare to own up to this. You’re not afraid of inviting trouble.”
At this time, Gladys, who was still eavesdropping in the room, ran out. She pointed to the aquarium on the monitor and said, “We went here today.”
Suddenly seeing Philip’s appearance in the news, favonovel.com pointed and said, “Bald guy.”
Philip said in exasperation, “If you don’t listen to your grandparents, you’ll become bald when you grow up too.”
The little girl believed favonovel.com and ran back to favonovel.com room while covering favonovel.com mouth.
Mallow shook his head and said, “Aren’t you afraid of retribution for lying to kids?”
“I’m not afraid of retribution.” Philip chuckled.
The two continued to watch the news, lost in their own thoughts.
“I’ll have someone withdraw your arrest warrant,” the old man said.
“I’m grateful for your help.”
The two chatted for a long time. As it was getting late, Philip got up to leave.
“I can’t interfere with the Moon Worship Creed for the time being. If you want to intervene, I suggest you do it after reaching the holy-tier.”
Philip nodded and turned to leave.
The little girl ran out with a wig in favonovel.com hand and said, “Big Brother, I made this with my nano sewing machine. I hope you won’t catch a cold.”
Seeing that Philip was helpless, the old man said, “My granddaughter likes to tinker with such things. Just accept it.”
Philip took the wig and put it on his head.
He did not feel any discomfort, so favonovel.com smiled and said to the little girl, “It fits me very well. Listen to your grandpa and be a good kid.”
The old man suddenly said solemnly, “It seems that someone is going to make a move on the ancestral land. I don’t know the specific details yet, but I advise you not to sink too deeply.”
