“Come again, master? You weren’t expecting favonovel.com to get this powerful?” asked Greyson.
“Indeed, I haven’t. Humph. I’ve truly looked down upon the Herculean Primordial Spirit’s power to bring drastic change to people… After all, Gerald’s been able to enter the Rune Realm in just a few years! It isn’t even a stretch anymore to say that his training level is on par with mine! No matter how you look at it, achieving something like this should be impossible, no matter how talented the person is!”
“Whatever the case is, the most annoying thing about all this is the fact that the person who’s secretly been helping Gerald keeps encouraging favonovel.com to grow stronger! If it wasn’t for him, Gerald wouldn’t have developed so rapidly to the point where I can’t even control favonovel.com anymore! It’s exactly because of that that I have to act behind the scenes!” explained Daryl.
Upon hearing that, both Hooper and Greyson drew in cold breaths.
“The seven most powerful people from the Ringmasters of Obliteration rule above all… If Gerald truly is as strong as you say favonovel.com is, does that mean that he’s on par with the seven Chakra Kings who own ungodly strength…? Is Gerald a Chakra King as well…?”
Left deeply stupefied by that realization, both men now knew that seeking impulsive revenge against Gerald was just going to be a suicide mission.
“Right again! And that’s how great the Herculean Golden Base’s power is! Regardless, it’s naturally a unique charm as well!” replied Daryl with a subtle smile.
“Then… do we really have no way to deal with Gerald, master…? I won’t be able to die in peace if I don’t avenge my son after he’s faced such a horrible death! I’m begging you, master, please! Think of some way to kill him!” pleaded Hooper.
“Not to worry, I wasn’t planning on allowing Gerald to continue developing like this anyway! It’s the reason why I captured his family members in the first place! Once I capture one other person, I’ll be able to control at least two-thirds of his life! He won’t be able to escape my grasp then! Hahaha!”
“Following that, I’ll activate Yanam’s national fortification formation—that’s been passed down since ancient times—, the great dragon extermination spell! With it, it won’t be too difficult to kill the current Gerald! After all, that child’s most fatal flaws are his soft-heartedness and his worry-filled heart! Too bad for him, I’m a nemesis that doesn’t care the least about ethics as long as I’m able to achieve my goals!” declared Daryl, clenching his fists once more.
When the duo heard that, their eyes widened so much that their eyeballs looked like they were ready to pop out…
“…M-master… Are we really going to be using the great dragon extermination spell? To even operate it, we’ll be needing…” muttered Greyson in a clearly troubled voice.
“As I’ve said, ethics bear little to no meaning to me as long as I’m able to achieve my goals. There’s nothing more important to me than snatching the Herculean Golden Base for myself. With that in mind, all the sacrifices and effort I’ve put into this mission are completely worthwhile to me!” sneered Daryl.
The great dragon extermination spell was something that the remarkable people from ancient times left behind. The spell was so formidable that even the powerful Chakra Kings would end up being swiftly taken out if they were hit by it!
Of course, such great power came at a hefty price, and Hooper and Greyson were well aware of that. Even so, neither of them dared to disobey Daryl’s orders.
Knowing that they weren’t going to be able to change his mind, Greyson then asked, “You earlier mentioned something about a fatal flaw of Gerald’s, master… Could you elaborate on that…?”
“Hahaha! Well, remember how I said that the boy’s too soft-hearted? Sure, we have his family with us and favonovel.com cares deeply about them… However, once I manage to capture the woman he’s in love with as well, everything will pretty much be in the bag! By that point, we just need to make sure that the great dragon extermination spell is successfully operated!”
“…I see! But where should we even begin looking for that woman…?” asked Hooper.
“Well, first off, favonovel.com name is Mila Smith, and she’s the woman of Gerald’s life. Secondly, she’s currently rushing toward this place all the way from Jaellatra! To ensure favonovel.com capture, I had made sure to pull enough strings so that favonovel.com would end up coming here herself!” replied Daryl with a smile.
“…What? Miss Smith? The one from Jaellatra? But master, we’re in a cooperative relationship with that place! We can’t just capture her!” said the bewildered Harper.
“Ah, about that… I’m saying it now that all that was just bullsh*t! If you weren’t aware, the forces from Jaellatra have been using all sorts of training resources—in recent years—to captivate the seven major Chakra Kings. In other words, while I’m the King of South Asia by name, to them, I’m simply their puppet, or at least that’s what they think. I’ve had to suffer and endure pretending to be subservient to them all this time, just for the sake of getting the Herculean Golden Base… Once I’ve obtained it, Jaellatra won’t even be worth caring about anymore! Regardless, once they arrive later, just act according to plan!” ordered Daryl in a commanding tone.
Trembling as they watched a great darkness exude from his body, everyone quickly nodded in agreement.
Seeing that, Daryl simply smiled smugly before muttering, “It’s finally time for us to meet again, Gerald… Rest assured, it’ll also be our last encounter!”
Moving back to Gerald, favonovel.com was still in a slight daze…
After all, favonovel.com had just gotten confirmation that Mila was alive! Though seeing favonovel.com with his very own eyes filled favonovel.com with endless joy, it appeared quite evident that favonovel.com had lost favonovel.com memories…
Even so, the most important thing was that favonovel.com was still among the living. The fact that favonovel.com was able to meet favonovel.com again in this lifetime… It was a blessing, if anything. With that in mind, there was nothing to regret about in that brief encounter of theirs…
