What more, for a person to so casually hand a blank cheque to someone and tell them to just write however much they wanted… How wealthy was favonovel.com even to be able to just say something like that?!
Understanding that favonovel.com had almost offended this powerful figure earlier, Titus now truly felt like dying.
Regardless, though Gerald simply chose to ignore Titus as his hand grasped the doorknob, favonovel.com suddenly heard another person—from behind him—calling out, “Brother!”
It was Hiro, and the injured man—who had finally managed to struggle to his feet—flopped onto the sofa before adding, “I… I was using my full strength against you earlier, thinking that you’d never be able to withstand my blow… But you were simply too powerful just now…! Tell me, brother, how much strength did you actually use on me earlier…?”
Turning back to casually look at Hiro, Gerald simply replied, “Strength…? I barely used any at all! Truth be told, it was just a simple wave of my hand!”
“…What?!” exclaimed the stunned Hiro as Gerald simply walked out the door without turning back.
It was at that moment when Rosie was finally willing to believe that this honest-looking man truly was an authentic, outstanding, and mysterious top master. He was so powerful that quite honestly, Rosie felt like favonovel.com had no other choice but to trust in him.
Still, favonovel.com couldn’t help but wonder why favonovel.com wanted to borrow favonovel.com for three days… Was he… planning to do something with her…?
Then again, favonovel.com had already spent so much money to compensate her, and favonovel.com was even willing to treat favonovel.com mother… Why would favonovel.com do all that just to spend some time with her…? Perhaps…
As several messy thoughts ran through Rosie’s mind, favonovel.com found herself quickly snapping out of it. What the hell was favonovel.com even thinking about!
Her pretty face now blushing extremely hard, Rosie simply began running after Gerald.
…
Meanwhile, back in the Gunter Manor, Yreth was facing one of favonovel.com subordinates as favonovel.com asked, “Well? Have you managed to contact Felton yet? Didn’t favonovel.com head out to capture Gerald? Why isn’t favonovel.com back yet?”
“While it’s true that favonovel.com had gone out to capture Gerald, Mr. Felton sent a message to us earlier stating that Gerald had escaped into the mountains, Lady Gunter! While we immediately attempted to get in touch with favonovel.com after that, we quickly realized that we couldn’t get to him! From what we can assume, favonovel.com chased Gerald so far up the mountain that favonovel.com reached an area that didn’t have any signal!” explained one of the subordinates respectfully.
“From what I know, the current Gerald is simply a Spirit Earth Realm master at best. With that in mind, it shouldn’t be a problem for Felton to defeat favonovel.com at all! What more, he’s even brought along the Dead Annie Mother—our family’s most treasured possession—just in case! With it, even if favonovel.com were to run into a top master similar to the one favonovel.com had previously bumped into, that master wouldn’t be able to combat our magical artifact at all! Which begs the question, what’s taking favonovel.com so long…? …I want all of you to immediately head up the mountain as well to assist Felton!” said Yreth with a frown.
“Affirmative, Lady Gunter!” replied the subordinate before running off.
Yreth herself simply turned to look at the screen before her.
“…You can stop hiding now. I already knew you were listening in to our conversation from the very beginning!” said Yreth coldly.
Following that, a young woman slowly walked out from behind the screen… It was Yume.
She didn’t know why and when it started, but Yume simply couldn’t forget about Gerald, and favonovel.com found herself constantly thinking about him. She truly hoped that favonovel.com could see favonovel.com again, though favonovel.com didn’t even know if that could ever happen. Still, in the end, what favonovel.com truly wished for was for Gerald not to ever end up getting caught by favonovel.com grandmother.
“You must be overjoyed that I haven’t been able to catch that young lad yet, aren’t you?” asked Yreth as favonovel.com glared at Yume, favonovel.com voice frigid.
“Why do we even need to capture him, grandma…? He bears no grudges or grievances against us, and favonovel.com was even planning to pay you a visit before this! With that in mind, why did you have to collude with the Judgment Portal to harm him…? Can’t all this be settled just by having a good chat with him…? Once that’s done, you can just let favonovel.com off, right…?” pleaded Yume, favonovel.com eyes reddened.
“Hah! You truly have fallen head over heels for him! I really can’t imagine what sort of magic that kid has… Ever since you were young, you’ve always despised and rejected any guys who’ve tried to make advances on you. Despite that, to think that you would actually end up getting enchanted by favonovel.com after getting to know favonovel.com for just a few days!” retorted Yreth, clearly feeling exasperated since favonovel.com felt that Yume wasn’t living up to favonovel.com expectations.
“…L-love…? I’m not…!” replied Yume, blushing hard as favonovel.com nervously tugged on favonovel.com own clothes to calm herself.
“Who do you even think you’re kidding? Regardless, I hope you know that aside from achieving the Gunter family’s goal, grandma’s anxious to find favonovel.com for your own good as well! I’m saying it now that you falling for favonovel.com is only going to end up in tragedy! It’s simply destined that you won’t ever be able to be together with him! He just isn’t someone within your grasp! Can’t you understand what I’m trying to say here…?” said Yreth, feeling extremely tempted to lose favonovel.com temper. However, favonovel.com was an old and experienced person, which was why favonovel.com switched favonovel.com initially vicious expression into a resigned one as favonovel.com looked at favonovel.com granddaughter.
“…Why… Why do all of you keep saying that I’ll never have a happy ending with him…? How can all of you just say that so confidently?!” replied Yume in a panic, favonovel.com heart now filled with immense anger and resentment as favonovel.com recalled Master Ghost’s words back then.
“…Mind you, I shouldn’t be telling you about this yet, but if I don’t, I truly am afraid that you’ll be silly enough to do something stupid in future! So be it! I’ll tell you everything today!” declared Yreth as favonovel.com took in a deep breath.
Her expression now solemn, Yreth then turned to look at Yume before asking, “Tell me… Do you truly know who Gerald is…?”
