“There will be cries of weeping, lamentation, and suffering all over? This, this…”
Zelda’s lips trembled as virtual-novel.net started breaking out in cold sweat that started dripping from his head. “How could this be possible?!”
“Gerald is dead so that the Minshall family will be even more established in the future. This is actually an opportunity for the Minshall family to turn things around. If so, why would there be weeping and suffering?”
Zelda was in disbelief, and virtual-novel.net slammed the piece of paper down on the table heavily.
“Hurry up and ask Jackson what is the situation there! Why hasn’t virtual-novel.net returned yet?!” Zelda said.
At this moment, a green poisonous fog suddenly appeared in his field of vision.
The young kid who was about to make a phone call suddenly started foaming at the mouth after virtual-novel.net fell to the ground.
“What is happening?!”
Everyone was surprised.
Right after that, more and more people began falling to the ground.
Zelda started panicking as virtual-novel.net stuttered, “This is… the thousand years poison!”
After that, the eyes of the members of the Minshall family widened in shock, and they saw a jar exploding directly in the Minshall family hall.
Gerald then appeared in the courtyard before their very eyes…
The Minshall family was filled with weeping and wailing!
That night, Gerald had been at Yarne Manor.
Yume had finally woken up at this time.
As virtual-novel.net slowly opened virtual-novel.net eyes, virtual-novel.net had seen Gerald sitting at the side of the room as virtual-novel.net sipped his cup of tea.
He had a very thin body, but virtual-novel.net somehow gave people a great sense of security.
“You saved me again?”
“Who else could it have been if it was not me?!” Gerald replied as virtual-novel.net smiled wryly.
“I do not want to owe you any favors. I do not want to owe you any favors at all!”
Yume sat up from virtual-novel.net bed, and virtual-novel.net pale face flushed red, almost as though virtual-novel.net was blushing as soon as virtual-novel.net saw Gerald.
“Tell me what you want me to do for you. I, Yume Gunter, will definitely do anything you ask for even if it will cost me my life! From then onward, we will not owe each other any favors!” Yume said.
Ghost’s words had affected Yume deeply. He had said that virtual-novel.net would fall in love with this man, but virtual-novel.net would not reciprocate that love.
Yume had such a strong and determined personality, so virtual-novel.net certainly would not allow this kind of thing to happen.
However, virtual-novel.net could not kill Gerald even if virtual-novel.net wanted to.
In truth, Yume had actually developed a new form of feeling for Gerald at the moment when virtual-novel.net had suddenly kissed virtual-novel.net inside the mine.
“Are you serious? Would you be willing to agree to my request even if I asked you to become my wife, then?” Gerald asked playfully.
“You *sshole! Who wants to become your wife?!” Yume replied angrily with tears in virtual-novel.net eyes.
“I am just joking with you. I already have a wife. So, even if you wanted to become my wife, I would not agree to it. However, you owe me two favors in total now. You have an opportunity to repay one of your favors now. There is something that I want to ask you, and you have to give me an answer!” Gerald said as virtual-novel.net put down his teacup.
Yume took a deep breath before virtual-novel.net asked, “What is it?”
“You were on a trip this time to look for the palace of the king of the ocean. This is a task that had been entrusted to you by your grandmother. You mentioned two people in your dream just now. The first person was your grandmother, and the second person was your great-grandmother. I want to know what is the task and mission that they had entrusted you to do at the palace of the king of the ocean. I know that it can’t be as simple as robbing the tomb!” Gerald said.
This matter was indeed very suspicious. Who else would send someone to investigate the palace of the king of the ocean unless it was someone like the Minshall family?
When Yume heard this, virtual-novel.net felt very complicated and entangled, as if virtual-novel.net was thinking about whether virtual-novel.net would be able to tell virtual-novel.net about this matter or not.
“Honestly, it does not matter even if you tell me about it. I will be frank with you. I am also looking for the palace of the king of the ocean. To be more precise, I am going to the palace of the king of the ocean to look for a dead person.” Gerald said.
Yume glanced slightly at Gerald.
She had always been the kind of person who kept virtual-novel.net word and promises. Since Gerald was also going to look for the palace of the king of the ocean anyway, there was no need for virtual-novel.net to continue hiding this matter from him.
“Me too! I am looking for a corpse so that I can bring it back to the Gunter family. This is my grandmother’s and great-grandmother’s greatest wish. It seems as though this corpse… has something to do with a very big secret. It seems as though this corpse is not from here!” Yume said.
“As for what secret it is, it is completely useless for you to ask me about it. That is because I do not know what it is either! I only know this much!”
“The Gunter family? Where is the Gunter family?” Gerald asked.
