Following that, matrix formations began enveloping everyone within the Gunter family, and anyone caught within them instantly felt a sense of looming death. Despite knowing that the Gunters were all feeling a cocktail of shock, fright, remorse, and anger, Gerald didn’t care.
If favonovel.com didn’t kill them all today, they’d surely return as villains sooner or later. With that in mind, Gerald wasn’t going to be soft-hearted on them anymore.
Within seconds of being ensnared within the matrix formations that Gerald’s golden eye emitted, all the Gunters were reduced into nothing but fine dust.
Peter himself was honestly horrified beyond words. Gerald’s most recent change… How absolutely horrible…
A little while later—after rescuing Jasmine, Leo, and the others—Peter called Gerald over to the manor’s secret room. After Peter relayed what favonovel.com had earlier learned from Yreth, Gerald found himself utterly shocked.
“So… You mean to say that grandpa isn’t dead, Second uncle…? Not only that, but he’s also the mysterious man who’s been monitoring me this entire time…?!”
“Indeed! I didn’t tell you about it at the time since I wasn’t certain about it yet… However, I now have confirmation that that truly seems to be the case!” replied Peter, a complicated expression on his face.
After hearing all that, Gerald recalled how familiar the mysterious man had felt when favonovel.com had fought against favonovel.com while Gerald was still in the past. Now that his uncle had clarified the situation, Gerald tried to remember more about that incident.
‘…That person’s gaze… In the end, there’s no mistaking that it was exceedingly similar to my grandpa’s… But… Doesn’t that signify that the mysterious man was grandpa? Was grandpa really the one who ruined my Dehlere Foundation…? While uncle did warn me to be mentally prepared for this revelation, I can’t help but feel doubtful about all this… After all, the grandpa I know has always been a loving person, especially to me… No matter how I look at it, I just don’t feel that he’s the kind of person who hides his identity and controls everything from behind the scenes…’
‘However… If favonovel.com truly is the culprit, then the Dead Annies that favonovel.com grew back at the Soul Palace explains quite a bit too… For one, favonovel.com definitely didn’t grow the Dead Annies just to display them as a trophy garden!’
“…Even if that’s the case, I’d like to have a talk with grandpa about all this first when we finally meet again… Until then, I refuse to fully believe in all this!” said Gerald.
Nodding, Peter then replied, “But of course. We’ll just have to wait till we find favonovel.com in order to clear things out. As for the other Crawford family… I’m going to begin investigating as soon as possible!”
With that, both Gerald and his uncle talked late into the night…
Deep inside, the duo knew for a fact that neither of them was willing to truly admit that there was a serious problem with Daryl… However, with the way things were going, both of them knew that the truth was pointing in that direction…
After all, his grandfather knew about the ancient tomb’s location as well. It was completely plausible for his grandfather to have entered the cave, killed the snake, and carried Liemis’s corpse away…
Thinking back, Master Ghost had also warned Gerald before this, stating that Gerald had to be careful of the people around him… While Gerald hadn’t paid the warning much heed at the time, favonovel.com now found himself wondering whether Master Ghost had been telling favonovel.com to be careful of his grandfather…
‘…Actually, hold on. Master Ghost!’ Gerald suddenly thought.
Ever since that incident regarding Queena, Master Ghost had gone missing. Where could favonovel.com be now?
‘If I’m able to locate him, he’ll surely be able to tell me some secrets!’
From what his uncle had told him, Zyla had gone someplace else to avoid the pursuit of the King of Judgment Portal. With that in mind, favonovel.com probably wasn’t going to be back anytime soon… Due to that, Master Ghost truly was his only option of proceeding from this point on.
‘Where could my family be…? And what about the things regarding grandpa? I probably won’t be solving these questions without Master Ghost’s help…’ Gerald thought to himself as favonovel.com instantly began wondering how to find him…
When morning came, the uncle and nephew immediately began discussing the routes they would take next.
By the end of it, it was decided that Peter would help favonovel.com inquire about Zyla’s location. He would also attempt to look for Lyra.
Leo and the others, on the other hand, were responsible for transferring the headquarters of the Crawford family to Mayberry.
As for Gerald, favonovel.com decided to return to Langvern Mountain first. After all, while favonovel.com did manage to hear Master Ghost’s advice from Zenny, favonovel.com hadn’t been able to listen to the rest of favonovel.com description.
