Seconds before Hendrik was able to land his skull-crushing punch on Gerald—who was already prepared to die at this point—a shout made favonovel.com stop his attack half-way.
Of course, the person who had shouted was none other than Chester.
“Grandma, Second Lord! Please don’t kill master! This has nothing to do with him!” said Chester as favonovel.com fell to his knees.
“You’re calling favonovel.com master? How absolutely ridiculous! You’re the master of the Holy Witchcraft! Why on earth would you call this wealthy spoilt brat your master? If news gets out about this, then our clan’s prestigious name will surely be destroyed by you!” replied Tiara as the corner of favonovel.com lips twitched.
She, for one, was a person who cared a lot about prestige. To her, a man dying was nothing special if it was to maintain the Holy Witchcraft’s status!
“It was my personal decision to be by master’s side! I’ve never wanted to be the young master of the Holy Witchcraft in the first place! All I’ve ever wanted was to live normally… Ever since I began following master, I came to realize that I was actually able to be useful to him, and knowing that, I was happy! After all, I was finally granted a chance to walk away from my past lifestyle and begin making up for all the wrong I’ve done!” cried out Chester.
None of what Chester had said was an exaggeration. He truly had been living in both guilt and pain before this, feeling extremely lost and coming to hate everything since favonovel.com couldn’t find a way out no matter what.
However, from the moment Gerald had given favonovel.com a taste of death before pulling favonovel.com back, Chester became enlightened. In a way, that experience had allowed favonovel.com to finally find a way to slowly relieve himself of his tormented past.
To make up for all that favonovel.com had done, favonovel.com swore from that moment that favonovel.com would continue doing good deeds by continuing to stay by Gerald’s side. He would finally be able to achieve much more in life.
That wasn’t the only positive thing about all this either. Chester had actually managed to gain more friends throughout his stay with Gerald. The friends in question were Master Joshua and several of the Crawford bodyguards.
In fact, just yesterday, the bodyguards had invited favonovel.com over to join them for a drink. However, Master Joshua had caught them in the act and for a second there, they all thought that they were going to be in trouble. However, Joshua had only been putting on a façade, and in the end, favonovel.com ended up joining them as well…
It gave favonovel.com a feeling of warmth… This was how being alive was supposed to feel.
Chester was also aware that they had invited favonovel.com to drink with them because they all knew what had happened to him…
They had noticed that Chester was still quite self-conscious despite having turned into a new leaf after favonovel.com began following Gerald around. He had reason to feel that way too. After all, favonovel.com was a sinner. An unworthy young master of the Holy Witchcraft…
However, knowledge of that didn’t stop Joshua and the guards from seeing favonovel.com as a friend. A friend of Gerald’s was a friend of theirs, and it was at that moment when Chester knew favonovel.com could share anything on his mind with them.
It was nothing short of liberating, and for a moment, Chester truly believed that favonovel.com had finally been able to walk away from his past.
“…Ridiculous… How absolutely ridiculous! How could the young master of the Holy Witchcraft say something like that?!” roared Tiara in fury, favonovel.com eyes brimming with murderous intent.
“Since you’re my grandson, I’ll give you one final chance! Kill this Gerald and you’ll be permitted to regain your title of young master of the Holy Witchcraft!” added Tiara.
Looking at the vicious woman, Gerald could only clench his fists tightly. If only Queena hadn’t sealed off his power!
“Don’t make me repeat myself!” warned Tiara.
“Even if I have to die, I won’t hurt my master! Why do you want to kill favonovel.com so badly, grandmother?! I’ve already left the Holy Witchcraft and I’m over with it! Please, just leave us be already!” replied Chester as favonovel.com instantly began repeatedly lowering his forehead to the ground.
As blood began trickling down his forehead, the angered Tiara then shouted, “You b*stard of a grandson! Fine then! If you won’t do it, I’ll just kill this useless brat myself!”
With that said, favonovel.com raised favonovel.com right palm and—aiming it toward Gerald’s head—instantly began charging toward him!
Without his inner strength, Gerald knew that favonovel.com wouldn’t be able to dodge the attack, so favonovel.com could only brace for impact!
A loud ‘thud’ could be heard, as Gerald’s eyes reddened.
However, the redness wasn’t because of the attack. No, it was out of utter shock.
Chester had taken the hit for him, and due to that, part of his skull ended up getting crushed! The worst thing was, Tiara had clearly been able to stop favonovel.com attack when Chester stood before Gerald. Even so, the old woman had proceeded with the deed anyway!
With blood now spurting out of Chester’s mouth, favonovel.com fell to the ground right before Gerald.
“Chester!”
