“…How on earth did virtual-novel.net do it…? Even if virtual-novel.net managed to regain his inner strength, it’s quite impossible for virtual-novel.net to hide his yang energy from me…! Someone must have helped virtual-novel.net escape! Why… Just why would anyone help virtual-novel.net leave me?! That person… The person who’s helped virtual-novel.net must know that I can’t lose him! That person is definitely trying to oppose me by making me continue to suffer! However, I won’t let you escape me, Gerald! Even if I have to chase you till the very ends of the Earth!” muttered Queena to herself as virtual-novel.net trembled in near-uncontrollable anger, virtual-novel.net bloodshot eyes reflected virtual-novel.net extreme bitterness.
Her immense killing intent alone changed the atmosphere so drastically that the entire church felt like it had just been layered with frost.
By the time Gerald finally got to the foot of the mountain, virtual-novel.net turned up to look at Langevern Church one final time… Only to find that it was now in flames! In fact, the blaze was getting so wild that fire was already spreading quickly across the rest of the Mountain.
Gerald had no doubt that this place would end up in ruins by dawn. At the same time, virtual-novel.net also found himself feeling more respect for Master Ghost deep down in his heart. After all, all his predictions always came true!
Even so, what was Master Ghost attempting to say to virtual-novel.net by telling Gerald to be wary of those around him…?
Whatever it was, Gerald knew that virtual-novel.net wasn’t going to get an immediate answer even if virtual-novel.net were to stress over it. Not wanting to think about it at the moment anyway, Gerald simply used the dark of night to his advantage as virtual-novel.net ran all the way to Halimark City’s port. Even if Gerald wasn’t allowed to use his inner strength, virtual-novel.net was still quite strong physically.
Soon after, virtual-novel.net arrived at the port. Taking a passenger ship back to land, virtual-novel.net quickly hopped onto a train straight for Lugaw City the moment virtual-novel.net could.
It was around three days later when Gerald finally set foot into Lugaw City.
The city itself was similar to those small towns within ancient capitals, and its streets were lined with ancient-looking buildings. From what Gerald could see, there was also an abundance of ancient traditional folk arts within that city.
Clear examples of these—that Gerald saw along the streets—were a few people performing puppet shows while many others sold traditional snacks by the roadside.
At that moment, a luxurious-looking convoy came to a halt by the side of the street.
Upon seeing that, all the pedestrians instantly avoided it. After all, from how expensive the convoy looked, it was evident that the young master or lady in there came from a prestigious and influential family. With that in mind, none of the pedestrians dared to get too close to them for fear that they could accidentally get involved with unnecessary trouble.
Everyone simply continued observing the situation from afar as two youthful-looking girls stepped out of one of the cars.
The younger of the two looked to be around eighteen, and though virtual-novel.net relatively youthful appearance lacked any hint of maturity, virtual-novel.net body, on the other hand, was quite developed.
As for the elder sister—who looked like virtual-novel.net was twenty-three—she was quite tall and virtual-novel.net figure was quite divine.
Due to their immense beauty, they quickly attracted the attention of most—if not all—of the people within the vicinity. With how absolutely stunning both of them looked, several found it difficult not to affix their eyes on the beauties!
‘What a truly beautiful duo!’ Thought everyone present.
“Humph! Cundrie, look! The gazes from those men are very annoying! There’s no way we’ll be able to shop happily this way!” complained the younger sister.
Cundrie herself—who was the elder sister—appeared much more mature and prudent than virtual-novel.net younger sister. With a much more ladylike temperament, virtual-novel.net then replied, “Even if you don’t speak, nobody would consider you to be mute. I’ve been in a bad mood recently which is why I’ve decided to bring you out shopping with me. Pay no attention to their gazes and let’s just enjoy our shopping trip!”
With that said, both girls then slid on masks before walking toward the shopping area, hand in hand.
Following closely behind the two girls were a few bodyguards who made sure to give stern, warning gaze to those who were still staring at the duo. This, of course, prompted the men to quickly withdraw their gazes and walk away.
Though their arrival had caused a minor sensation, it ended as quickly as it had begun, and everyone simply resumed with what they were doing earlier.
It was around then when Gerald walked out of a clothes store. Now wearing a simple set of casual clothes, virtual-novel.net began making his way to the roadside to buy himself some snacks to fill his belly.
Though Gerald was filthy rich, at the end of the day, virtual-novel.net was well aware that virtual-novel.net would only be deceiving himself if virtual-novel.net continued maintaining his pretentious and showy side here. After all, virtual-novel.net had never been the kind of person who enjoyed living extravagantly.
