“We’re just here for some minor business, mister!” replied Gerald with a subtle smile as favonovel.com stood up the second favonovel.com saw Juno signaling for favonovel.com to help.
In response, the Soul Hunter simply looked at Gerald with a bleak expression before arrogantly retorting, “And who the hell are you? Can’t you see that I’m talking to her? Do you think any of this concerns you?”
Upon hearing that, Gerald instantly frowned… and the next thing the Soul Hunter knew, favonovel.com was already flying backward from Gerald’s force palm attack!
Seeing that, the other Soul Hunters immediately got up, unsheathing their daggers at the same time as they glared at Gerald.
None of them had expected Gerald to make the first move. Naturally, they hadn’t anticipated favonovel.com to be this strong either.
“Those aren’t ordinary people! They definitely have a reason for being here! Get them!” declared one of the Soul Hunters.
Hearing that, the other Soul Hunters instantly bolted toward Gerald and his party!
Even so, Gerald wasn’t worried at all. With another force palm, Gerald sent a wave of energy toward the assailants, causing all of them to fall to the ground!
Now that there was room to escape, Gerald immediately grabbed onto Rey and Juno’s arms before yelling, “Run!”
With that, the trio dashed out of the restaurant, unable to even find the time to pay for their meal!
By the time the Soul Hunters got back to their feet and ran out of the restaurant, Gerald and his party were nowhere in sight… They had successfully driven away!
“Those b*stards! They really are extraordinary! Hurry and report this to the leader!” yelled the leader of the group.
So much for a stealthy approach… Gerald and his party had been found out before the adventure even began!
Whatever the case was, Rey—who had been frightened half to death earlier—was finally able to catch his breath after panting for so long. He truly hadn’t expected Gerald to just fight the other party right off the bat…
Still, now that favonovel.com had regained his calmness, Rey turned to face Gerald before admiringly saying, “You really are something else, Mr. Crawford! Sending so many of them flying in a single attack… It was just like watching an action movie scene!”
“While I appreciate the compliment, could you please be a bit calmer in the future…” grumbled Gerald as favonovel.com raised a slight eyebrow while looking at Rey.
Upon hearing that, the embarrassed and awkward Rey simply lowered his head, mumbling in agreement.
Regardless, Juno herself didn’t really blame Rey. With that in mind, favonovel.com tried to switch the topic by asking, “…Either way, what should we do now, Gerald? The Soul Hunters are definitely going to go after us now!”
With the mess they had just created, the alerted enemies would definitely start causing them trouble in the near future…
“Don’t worry, they still don’t have a good grasp on our identities for now! As long as we remain in the shadows while they’re doing things in public, I believe we can turn this situation into an advantageous one!” replied Gerald in a calm tone.
Gerald believed that the leader of the Soul Hunters wouldn’t waste too much effort on three nobodies. After all, their main target was still the token of Demonic Blood…
Not too long after, the cloaked man—whom Gerald had met the day before—could be seen sitting in his tent at a campsite.
A few Soul Hunters were now standing before him—after getting his permission to enter—as one of them reported, “We bumped into three peculiar individuals in a restaurant today, leader! We know that at least one of them has extraordinary strength, and we believe that the trio aren’t regular people!”
