Chapter 1063
“The blessings of the dragon?” muttered Christopher as he immediately took a few steps back, his eyelids twitching rapidly. Seeing that the old man was momentarily stunned, Daryl shouted, “Gerald! Leave now!” The pilot himself took the cue to immediately start up the helicopter. While Gerald was extremely reluctant to leave, he was also well aware that his grandfather had used all his strength for his sake. If he remained here any longer, his grandfather’s efforts would all be for naught. With that in mind, he rushed into the helicopter. The moment Christopher attempted to pursue the youth, Daryl immediately clung on tightly to him, preventing the old man from proceeding any further. “You called me cruel earlier, but aren’t you even more so? To think that you’d actually use your blessings of the dragon to take the blow of my mysterious mirror’s power! While I know that I can’t kill you, you’ll still be terribly injured! There are still three more months till the pledge of t

Evidently, however, it didn’t just appear to be hot. This was confirmed when Christopher instantly began screaming in pain as he let go of the scalding-hot short blade. The moment he did so, the short blade instantly flew back into Gerald’s hand. “It’s… It’s a magic artifact?!” yelled Christopher, still recovering from the shock. Shortly after, his gaze went feral as he muttered, “So the picture of the sun wasn’t the only magic artifact that the Crawford family owned… How surprising… If I get my hands on that short blade and learn how to control it, my power will easily be doubled! I’ll be invincible! Once I obtain it, I’ll surely be able to further demonstrate my great skill and talents during the pledge of the holy water!” Seeing that the old man had started mumbling like a mad person, Gerald slowly began taking a few steps back. “The heavens have truly blessed me this time… Not only do I already have control over the mysterious mirror, but I’ll soon be able to get a hold o

Gerald was so immersed in his new discovery that he ended up training for days to master all four of the techniques made by the black figure. By the time he realized it, a week had already passed. Tossing the short blade again, an explosive sound was soon heard as a large stone crumbled to pieces. As the blade hovered in the air, Gerald used his mind to command the Dawnbreaker to return to his hand. Once it did, Gerald thought to himself, ‘The Dawnbreaker truly has immense attack potential… From what I can tell, it’s probably as strong as a great master! While I may still be a semi-great master, since I now know how to properly use this short blade, I should be able to even up the fight should I bump into Christopher again!’ Throughout that week, Gerald had mastered the other three methods as well. However, since he disliked using long swords as a whole, he didn’t really bother practicing too much on the other three moves. Regardless, he knew that he had delayed his search fo

After saying that, Gerald was about to turn around and leave when he suddenly heard one of the girls saying, “Ouch! My leg!” Turning back to look, he saw that girl who had yelped was currently holding on to her ankle. It was most probably hurt when she was struggling to free herself earlier. “Are you alright?” asked Gerald and the other girl simultaneously as they both squatted down. Momentarily surprised by their similar reactions, the girl then replied, “My ankle hurts pretty badly… I don’t think I can walk!” “Hmm… Well I’ll support you then!” said the charismatic bespectacled girl. Despite her friend’s help, the injured girl’s leg was too hurt for her to walk more than a few steps at a time. After watching them stop to rest a few times, Gerald simply said, “…This is taking far too long… Just let me have a look!” “Of course! But… Wouldn’t it be better if you had her ankle checked back at our place? I’m afraid that those hooligans will return!” replied the bespectacled g

“This man saved us, Mr. Lockhart!” said Giya as she slowly got off Gerald’s back. “I’ve told you time and again not to call me that, Giya… Just call me Wynn… Calling me Mr. Lockhart feels so strange!” replied Wynn. Choosing not to reply to that, she then turned to look at Gerald before saying, “…Anyway, we still don’t know your name, so… Could you please share it with us?” For some odd reason, Giya had felt extremely close to this person from the moment she first met him. She couldn’t tell why either. It almost felt unreal how close he felt to her. Aside from him, it had been the longest time since she had last felt such a way toward any guy. If she had to put the feeling into words, it felt somewhat similar to meeting a long-lost relative again. “She’s right, we still don’t know your name!” added the bespectacled girl with a smile on her face. “There’s no need for that, I just helped with a small matter!” replied Gerald as he further lowered his brim before heading upstair

Once everyone was ready, the tan man began leading all of them into the desert. It was only after they had left quite a distance when Gerald walked out of the hotel. He truly hadn’t expected to bump into Giya here of all places after an entire year. Regardless, she had started working and she had also become so much better. While Gerald had been tempted to reveal his identity to Giya, it had been over a year and he now knew that she still hadn’t truly forgotten about him back when he had tested her. He was well aware of how bad he had treated her back then, and knowing that them being together was going to be impossible anyway, Gerald decided not to delay her from moving on any longer. Regardless, Gerald had noticed that Wynn had been very nice to Giya earlier. While Gerald didn’t particularly like Wynn, he trusted that Wynn only wanted the best for Giya. It was the reason why Gerald hadn’t stayed back to treat her injured ankle back then. After all, he could see that there w

Though the journey through the desert was both long and hot, the researchers and the tourists did just fine with the help of the Master of the Desert. After two days of traveling, the group arrived at the center-point of the desert. As was expected, from where they currently were, not a soul could be seen within the sandy lands. At the time, dusk was setting in soon so they decided to make a stop at a shelter that was half-broken. Thankfully, it was still nice enough for them to stay the night. “I wonder how that man’s doing… Do you think he headed back to town…?” muttered Giya as she sat next to the fireplace, thinking about the man who had saved her. “I doubt it. He just doesn’t seem to be that kind of guy! The way he presents himself, he’s both mature and reliable! Actually, hold on… Why do you keep thinking about him anyway? Didn’t you say that you loved Gerald…? Could it be that you’re obsessing over him because he both looks like, and reminds you of Gerald…?” replied Mer

“It was a little after dusk back then… Just like how it is now! The sun had already set by then and it was getting increasingly dark… At the time, we came across a river and my father told me that we were going to set up camp there. Once everything was set up, we headed to the river to gather some water for the next day… Approaching the river together, it was then when we saw her!” As everyone stared wide-eyed at the Master of the Desert, he continued, “Capra Nanny was drinking water by the riverside, and though I wasn’t able to properly see her face under the moonlight, I remember clearly that she had an extremely long tongue and her hair was long and messy.” “Stopping in our tracks, the old woman raised her head and made eye contact with us. It was only a brief moment, but both her eyes were green! Thankfully, my father snapped me out of it in time as he shouted, ‘Don’t look at her, Billy! Turn around, right this instant!’” “Upon saying that, my father immediately turned around
