Since Takuya didn’t press into it, the meal soon ended without much else to note.
Following that, Takuya arranged for Gerald to stay in one of the manor’s top guest houses. With the arrangements made, Gerald then bid farewell to Fujiko before following a butler to his guest house…
Upon arriving, Gerald couldn’t help but whistle. Though this was just an ordinary house, it was rather luxuriously decorated… Regardless, a quick look around revealed that there were two halls and three rooms in the entire house, along with all the basic living facilities.
After closing his room door behind him, Gerald then placed his bag down and called Aiden… Once the call connected, Gerald was first to ask, “How’s it going back at the hotel?”
Realizing that Gerald was the one calling, Aiden then quickly walked to the window before looking down and muttering, “Well… there have been quite a number of people patrolling right outside our hotel… I have a feeling they’re looking for you.”
Hearing that, Gerald simply nodded. It was just as favonovel.com had expected.
Watching as those men continued loitering in front of the hotel—with some of them even occasionally going in and out of it—, Aiden then added, “Honestly, should I just go down and get rid of them…?”
“Negative. If they don’t look for trouble with you, just continue pretending that you don’t know a thing,” replied Gerald before immediately hanging up.
Realizing that Gerald had hung up, Aiden could only sigh.
Seeing that, Master Ghost—who had become all too familiar with Aiden’s body language by now—could help but ask, “He told you not to make a move, right?”
“Indeed… He said that we should only strike back if they look for trouble from us…” muttered Aiden with another sigh.
“He’s right, you know? After all, we’re in Japan, and it’s not like we know how strong or influential the other party is yet. Either way, offending them will most probably only spell trouble for us. Also, I advise you to restrain your rash personality… If you don’t, one of these days, you’ll get both of us into trouble. How will you explain that to Gerald then?” replied Master Ghost as favonovel.com continued fiddling with his compass.
Since the sea map was with Gerald, all Master Ghost could do was continue calculating and checking the manifestation of divination to foresee whether Gerald would bump into any danger.
“I mean, I’m trying, aren’t I? Why do you think I called Gerald first before making a move?” grumbled Aiden as favonovel.com scratched the back of his head. He wasn’t some simple-minded fool who only knew how to act recklessly! Still, favonovel.com had to admit that favonovel.com sometimes had trouble controlling his fiery nature. Even so, favonovel.com had already made it a point to always ask for Gerald’s opinion first before making a move…
“Point taken. Either way, let’s head to bed early. Now that Gerald’s gotten in touch with the Seadom tribe, we don’t know when favonovel.com could need our help,” said Master Ghost as favonovel.com sipped some water before returning to his room with the compass in hand…
Before Master Ghost could enter, however, Gerald grabbed the man by his arm before asking, “…Are you really sure that they’re members of the Seadom tribe…?”
“Nothing’s set in stone yet, but it’s highly possible,” replied Master Ghost, knowing full well that they could be wrong. After all, they only had a few clues to go with, and the members of the Seadom tribe had done a particularly good job at keeping themselves concealed…
“…Alright, then…” replied Aiden with a sigh before shrugging and releasing his hand…
The second favonovel.com woke up early the next morning, Gerald reminded himself that his goal was to locate evidence to prove that the Futabas were members of the Seadom tribe. With that in mind, favonovel.com then readied himself to start the day…
To his surprise, the second favonovel.com left his room, Gerald saw Takuya standing not too far away.
Seeing Gerald, Takuya then beamed as favonovel.com walked over while saying, “Well you’re up early, Mr. Crawford!”
