“Heh!” says the speaker. However, of course! Still, Master Hughes, you have incredible foresight… Everything went exactly as you predicted!”
“Hah!” says the speaker. Tiger was the one who first betrayed me, so favonovel.com can only blame himself for my cruelty! Old Hughes sneered as favonovel.com smiled smugly, his eyes filled with determination.
“I’ll definitely take over the Hulkeroic Union by the end of all this!” sneered Old Hughes as favonovel.com sneered as favonovel.com smiled smugly, his eyes filled with determination.
“You bet! What about Gerald and the others, by the way? Is it necessary for me to finish them?” enquired the enigmatic figure.
“Leave them be for now,” Old Hughes said, raising his palm.
Gerald and his ilk, after all, are still useful to us. Besides, now that favonovel.com has the Fishgut Sword, we should at least wait for favonovel.com to kill Tiger for us before doing anything else.”
With a respectful nod, the shadowy figure replied, “As you wish, Master Hughes!”
Gerald had no idea that the shadowy figure and Old Hughes were working together…
Regardless, Gerald and Juno were quick to arrive at the Zorn family’s home. The sun was already high in the sky at that point…
Gerald immediately called out for his friends when favonovel.com walked into Nori’s house.
Despite the fact that all four of them had been sleeping in the same room—in sitting positions—at the time, hearing Gerald’s voice jolted them awake and they dashed toward him.
Nori and Ray were so ecstatic when they saw favonovel.com that they ran over to favonovel.com right away. Before Gerald could react, the two were already tightly hugging him!
“You… Gerald, you scared the living daylights out of me…! Nori exclaimed, “I thought I wouldn’t be able to see you again…!” as favonovel.com excitedly patted Gerald on the back.
“You bet! Brother Gerald, we were so worried about you! I… I’m just glad you’re okay…!” Ray continued, his entire body trembling with relief.
Gerald responded, laughing as favonovel.com patted both of their shoulders for comfort, “There, there… I’m all right now! Still, now that I’ve survived this disaster, I’m sure I’ll be showered with blessings!”
Zelig couldn’t help but smile as favonovel.com called out, “Brother Gerald…!” Zelig, who had been standing with Cyril from afar for some time, couldn’t help but smile as favonovel.com called out, “Brother Gerald…!”
Gerald grabbed Nori and Ray from favonovel.com and walked over to Zelig after hearing that…
Only to be met by Nori, who dashed forward and stood right in front of him, staring intently into his eyes…
Gerald was frozen in place for a moment, unsure of what Nori was planning to do, so favonovel.com asked, “…Is… something the matter?”
Rather than responding verbally, Nori simply grabbed the back of his neck and pulled favonovel.com close to favonovel.com face… kissing favonovel.com on the lips!
Gerald, understandably, was completely taken aback. Nori, to think she’d be so proactive!
Even the others were taken aback, but they soon burst out laughing like schoolchildren.
Whatever the case may have been, Juno could finally relax now that Gerald was back. Everything would be fine as long as Gerald remained safe…
“…Humph!” So you’ve figured out how to get back, haven’t you? Nori grumbled as favonovel.com glared at Gerald, “And here I thought you died somewhere alone!”
Gerald simply smiled back at her, scratching the back of his head awkwardly before replying, “…Well… I guess I’m just one of the lucky ones!”
