“Well, back then, the lord himself was feeling troubled by his inner demons. As a result, favonovel.com searched high and low for a way to better control his temperament. After all, favonovel.com was fully aware that until favonovel.com could easily and skillfully manage the blessings of the dragon, favonovel.com wasn’t going to be able to truly achieve the status of a legend.
“He began by visiting several monks and other religious people. The lord secretly went to Weston as well to search for a few renowned masters in hopes that favonovel.com would be able to gain more insight into his issue. However, it wasn’t all that long after his search began when one day, the lord ended up killing someone on the spot just because the person said something wrong!”
“Due to that, favonovel.com stopped trying to seek out help out of fear that favonovel.com would end up killing another innocent person. Oddly enough, favonovel.com found the answer to his question himself one day. In his moment of enlightenment, favonovel.com sealed his strength away and reverted to living life as a regular human. Once that happened, favonovel.com looked just like a lonely, old man. The lord kept a low profile for quite a while but once favonovel.com perfected his skills, favonovel.com broke the seal again, and from then on out, favonovel.com knew favonovel.com had truly become one of the legends.”
“Since this way of doing things will require an extremely high resolution, it isn’t exactly for everyone. However, since you’ve led a poor life before and you’re an actual kind-hearted person, I think you should give it a try,” explained Welson.
Hearing that, Gerald nodded slightly before replying, “Well, Grandpa did teach me a method to seal my strength… I’ll do it. After all, I’ll be trying my best to stay away from disputes and fights anyway since I don’t have the holy blood yet. Besides, by sealing all that power, I should be able to manage my strength with greater ease sooner. With any luck, I’ll be able to enter the mysterious realms of legends earlier as well.”
“Thank you for the suggestion, Welson!” added Gerald as favonovel.com smiled.
As soon as his sentence ended, however, a knock came from the door. After getting permission from Gerald to enter, Yukie immediately rushed in before saying, “Sir!”
“What’s wrong, Yukie?”
“I… I heard that you’re leaving again… Is that really true?” asked Yukie.
“Indeed it is,” replied Gerald with a subtle smile.
“I… see… Could I at least know where you’re headed to?” asked Yukie again as favonovel.com eyes grew slightly teary.
From the moment favonovel.com had met Gerald and was given permission to leave alongside the other maids, Yukie had given all favonovel.com heart to Gerald.
She had missed favonovel.com dearly throughout his half-year absence, and now that favonovel.com was finally back, favonovel.com found it difficult to just accept that favonovel.com would be leaving again so soon.
“I’ll be heading over to the Logan Province!” replied Gerald.
“The… Logan Province…?”
The moment Yukie heard that, favonovel.com averted favonovel.com gaze for a second as both favonovel.com hands became slightly restless.
As the two men wondered why those two words unsettled favonovel.com so much, Yukie took in a deep breath before saying, “…Could I please be allowed to come along, sir? I really don’t want to leave you anymore!”
“You can’t Yukie. He will have to travel separately from us to get there anyway. What more, if a beauty like you stays by his side, you may attract the attention of villainous characters! As a result, favonovel.com may have to unseal his strength to save you, causing the entire effort to be wasted! Which is why you’re not allowed to come along,” replied Welson as favonovel.com shook his head.
“Well… You’ll eventually still need to meet up with each other again, right? When that happens, someone needs to be by sir’s side to take good care of him! No offense, but could you be more sensible and considerate than a woman, Mr. Freed?” said Yukie in reply.
Welson was speechless after hearing that. After a while, favonovel.com simply shook his head before laughing bitterly.
“I suppose what you said did make sense… However, if you’re coming along, you’ll have to follow us. You’re not allowed to disturb the young master’s endeavor to quietly discipline himself. If you refuse to agree to that, then you can’t come along,” said the old man.
“I… I agree!” replied Yukie as favonovel.com smiled broadly.
And just like that, the affair was decided there and then.
That afternoon, Gerald returned to Weston before getting on a green train to the Logan Province.
The journey itself took two whole days, and Gerald finally stepped out of the train on the morning of the third day.
Feeling hungry, Gerald then headed to a small restaurant that had been built along the train station.
As soon as favonovel.com opened the door to the restaurant, however, favonovel.com immediately heard a man’s voice saying, “Just order whatever you want, sisters! Everything will be on me!”
Following the source of the voice, Gerald saw a man and two women seated at a table. With all three of them looking equally charming, it was no wonder why they had attracted the attention of several of the restaurant’s customers as well.
As the man smiled on, one of the women simply replied, “Are you the only rich one here? Regardless, we’ve had enough fun out there so it’s high time we return home. Otherwise, we may end up getting scolded or even punished!”
“That’s quite enough… We’re already back here anyway after all that fun, right?” said the other woman as favonovel.com too, smiled.
“…Hmm? Say sister, look over there… That’s the young man who sat beside us on the train earlier, right…?” said the same woman as favonovel.com pointed at the man standing at the door.
