Chapter 1017
Haven was utterly shocked to see him there. She naturally remembered him since he had been quite an interesting guy when they first met on the train. In her disbelief, she opened the main door in her attempt to confirm whether she had really seen him. However, she could only catch a glimpse of ‘Gerald’s’ back as he stepped into a car before her father closed the door behind him. “Gerald!” shouted Haven as the cars swiftly drove off, unable to hear her cries. Scratching the back of her head, she wondered if it really had just been her imagination. After all, why would he be in her house? What more, her father certainly wouldn’t personally open a car door for someone like him! “Is something wrong, Haven?” asked Xareni as she and Quentin walked over to her. “You’ll never guess who I saw, sis!” “Who?” “I saw Gerald!” “And who is this, Gerald person?” asked Xareni with a slight frown. “Have you already forgotten? He’s the guy we met inside the train!” “That disgusting gu

The voice belonged to Kaleb and the old man managed to block Damian’s critical blow just in time. “Would you look at that! He must’ve endlessly trained himself to launch such a perfected punch!” said Gerald as he continued observing the fight from the side-lines. Gerald had arrived at that conclusion since Damian’s skills weren’t all that different from all the other people he had previously killed. However, Damian was different from them since his execution of each of those skills was extremely powerful! If Gerald had to guess, Damian had probably become a champion much earlier than Kaleb. After all, a champion’s inner strength naturally grew stronger the longer they had that title. In a way, it was just like wine. The longer it was left underground, the more exquisite the taste. While both Kalen and Damian were akin to exquisite wine, Gerald knew that Kaleb wouldn’t be able to take Damian down. After all, Gerald’s keen eyes had registered that though Kaleb was definitely mo

“Deal!” replied Gerald with a smile. Gerald himself was done with doing favors for others. In order to get what he wanted, he knew that he had to become a selfish person. After all, at this point, there really wasn’t a reason for him to do things that didn’t benefit him anymore. The moment Gerald finally agreed to help, Kaleb and Theo were flung over to his direction and both of them landed at his feet. “Hahaha! Did you really bring these idiots over to defend you, Zander? Who else is there? Come on, now!” roared Damian before laughing hysterically. Upon hearing that, Gerald began walking calmly toward him. “…Hmm? What’s this then? A little boy? Is there truly nobody else from the Lovewell family? Who the hell even is this?” said Damian as he shook his head while looking at Gerald. “I’ve heard that you’ve been learning some skills that originated from Northeast Asia! Is that true?” asked Gerald as he looked back at Damian. Hearing that, Damian was temporarily stunned. Aft

Following that sound, a glimpse of something flying extremely quickly could be seen, and barely a second later, Damian’s screams of agony filled the air! Not even questioning the self-returning dagger, the moment Zander saw Damian’s body flop lifelessly to the ground, he immediately started excitedly shouting, “H-he’s dead! He’s finally dead!” Turning to look at Gerald, he then said, “Mr. Crawford, you’ve done a massive favor for the Lovewells! I must repay you properly on behalf of my family!” “As was promised, all I want is the Book of Beasts!” replied Gerald as he returned a subtle smile to Zander. Immediately after hearing that, Zander froze in place. As he began trying to change the topic, Haven herself—who had been hiding with her siblings in the forested area this entire time—covered her mouth as she said, “D-did you see that sis? That really is Gerald! And… And he’s amazing?!” Xareni herself had been focused on him for a while now. ‘To think that Gerald came over

“It’s me, Gerald!” Before Gerald could even say anything, the door to his room was pushed open and Haven popped her head in before entering. “Didn’t you head back to your room to rest, Haven? Why are you here again?” asked Gerald with a resigned smile on his face. Haven had immediately looked for him the moment he returned to the manor, intent on finding out how he was so powerful. Not seeing any reason to hide anything from her, Gerald had earlier chatted with her for a while before sending her off. He truly hadn’t expected to meet her again so soon. “Well, the more I thought about it back in my room, the more I felt that something just wasn’t right! Humph! You’re not being a very good friend at all! Have you already forgotten that we had agreed to be friends back when we were still on the train? It took me a moment to realize, but you never came looking for me in the end! How do you plan on explaining yourself?” said Haven as she took a seat. “Haha… Guilty as charged!”

Upon hearing Gerald say that, Xareni instantly retorted, “You!-” Before she could say anything rash, however, she simply nodded before remaining silent for a while to calm herself. A few seconds later, she smiled angrily before saying, “Well since you clearly look down on our small temple, then I guess the Lovewell family will just hand over the Book of Beasts to you tomorrow as our token of appreciation, sir!” The moment she was done speaking, Xareni instantly turned around and left his room. Upon closing the door behind her, she took in a deep breath before glaring daggers at the room. It was early the next morning when Haven pushed the door to Gerald’s room open before shouting, “Good morning, master!” “Master?” replied Gerald as he couldn’t help but shake his head while looking at the girl who had brought a cup of ginseng tea along with her. He didn’t even have a chance this time to remind her to knock first before entering this time. Despite her intrusion, Gerald still

“So I heard that you’ve successfully captured Gerald Crawford, Mr. Lovewell. On behalf of the Moldells, I really don’t know how to thank you enough,” said an elderly man—who was leading seven other members of the Moldell family—as he laughed out loud. “You’re being far too modest, Mr. Yaster. After all, the Lovewells and the Moldells may as well be considered to be one big family in the Logan Province by this point. Gerald himself is a mere outsider. Why would we ever favor an outsider to someone from our side?” replied Zander with a subtle smile. “Well I’ll be d*mned! That really is him! You have no idea how much effort we had to put in order to find him!” said Yaster, his voice overjoyed as he approached the unconscious Gerald. Yaster himself was a senior figure within the Moldell family in Logan. In fact, his job was to manage the entire family in the province. Therefore, successfully capturing Gerald would definitely be a great achievement on his part. He was already wonderin

However, his current opponents were from the Moldell family. Even so, he was ready to give it his all. After all, Gerald had saved his life during the decisive battle with Damian last night. His action alone had made Kaleb feel respected like never before. It truly touched Kaleb, and from that moment onward, the old man felt as though he no longer had to suffer through any more humiliation. As a result, Kaleb had pledged his loyalty and allegiance to Gerald back there and then. It was the reason why he was fighting so hard now for Gerald’s sake. Even after fighting for a while, it seemed as though the Moldell family’s subordinates weren’t really Kaleb’s opponents. Seeing that, Yaster shook his head with a bitter smile on his face as he said, “He truly is worthy of the title of a champion! I guess this guest of the Lovewells isn’t as simple as he looks!” “Well that’s probably because you haven’t made a move yet, Mr. Moldell. Who in the Logan Province doesn’t know that you’
