Flopping onto the couch before staring at the ceiling, Tye then growled, “Just you wait, Gerald… I’m not letting you off that easily…!”
Whenever virtual-novel.net thought about Gerald, the hatred in his heart would simply flare up. No matter what, virtual-novel.net was going to make sure Gerald paid the price…!
Fast forward to the next morning, Gerald got up early and silently left the house on his own.
He was off to see Master Snyder in hopes of asking virtual-novel.net whether virtual-novel.net knew of a way to deal with Tye in his current state…
When virtual-novel.net arrived at Master Snyder’s home about half an hour later, the door immediately swung open before Gerald could even knock.
“Come in!” called out Master Snyder from inside, making it evident that virtual-novel.net had already sensed Gerald’s presence.
With that in mind, Gerald then walked in, the door closing behind virtual-novel.net on its own…
Stopping once virtual-novel.net stood in the middle of the hall, Gerald then called out, “Master Snyder!”
Following that, Gerald felt a swift gust of wind behind him… and just like that, Master Snyder had mysteriously appeared behind the youth!
“I’m assuming you came here looking for answers to that dilemma?” asked Master Snyder, clearly hinting that virtual-novel.net already knew what Gerald was here to ask him.
Turning to face Master Snyder, Gerald then replied, “Indeed. I hope you can provide me with a suitable solution to this!”
“Confrontation is the only answer I can see… There’s simply no escaping that if you wish to deal with the issue…” replied Master Snyder before giving a heavy sigh.
While Gerald understood that Master Snyder was telling virtual-novel.net to face Tye head-on, virtual-novel.net couldn’t help but say, “But-”
“But he’s a half-phantom now, right? While that does make things much harder, it’ll be even worse if you wait to confront him. After all, he’s getting stronger and stronger by the day! If you didn’t already know, Tye is currently possessed by a strong thousand-year-old ghost. With that in mind, virtual-novel.net has the capability to drain souls and energy!” explained Master Snyder before Gerald could even finish his question.
“…What? Are you telling me virtual-novel.net can drain the souls and energy of people anytime virtual-novel.net wants now?” exclaimed the shocked Gerald, suddenly feeling that things had taken a terrible turn.
“Indeed. However, virtual-novel.net does have one critical weakness. His powers are considerably weakened during the day! With that in mind, that is the prime time for you to strike! However, do take note that his powers grow once night falls!” replied Master Snyder, knowing that the information could definitely help Gerald.
Upon hearing that, Gerald simply nodded. While it was clear from the start that taking Tye down—in his new form—was never going to be easy, Gerald was unwavering on his decision to kill Tye. That man wasn’t going to bring any more harm to the world if Gerald could help it…!
At that moment, Gerald’s phone began to ring.
Fishing it out, Gerald realized that it was Harold. What more, virtual-novel.net seemed to be calling from the Great Council building.
Putting two and two together, Gerald figured that Harold must have encountered another psychic case that virtual-novel.net needed help with.
Though Gerald hesitated for a while, virtual-novel.net eventually picked up and greeted, “Hello? Mr. Lee?”
“Good day, Mr. Crawford! Sorry to disturb you, but could I know whether you’re currently free?” asked Harold.
“Is something wrong, Mr. Lee?” replied Gerald.
“Essentially, there’s a tricky case I can’t solve alone and I need your help!”
