Chapter 1147
From how pained his voice had sounded as the young lord continued lying on the ground, it was almost as though he was thinking about some unspeakable grief. “…You… hate women?” inquired Gerald as he couldn’t help but stare coldly at the young lord. “You probably wouldn’t believe me even if I explained it to you… After all, from the moment I was born, I’ve always only been known as the high and mighty young lord of the Holy Witchcraft… While everyone tends to get jealous of me, I can safely say that throughout the years, I’ve never truly been happy… You know, I’ve hated that woman ever since I was young… Because of her, I ended up hating all other women! The woman in question… She was my mother!” explained the young lord. Upon hearing that, Gerald felt his eyelids twitch slightly. He had never heard of anyone claiming to resent their mother as strongly as the young lord had… After all, who on this planet wouldn’t love the one who had birthed them? However, Gerald could sense tha

“Throughout the years, I’ve hurt a total of seven women… Before I die, I wish to beg for their forgiveness… Only then will I be able to rest in peace… Perhaps I may still be able to meet Lola after doing so…” said Chester extremely sincerely. Hearing that, Gerald simply nodded slightly without saying another word, a clear sign of his approval. Gerald was fine with granting him his request since it truly seemed like Chester wished for repentance. The fact that Chester remembered where every single one of the seven women he had hurt lived made Gerald even more sure that Chester was serious about his request. Soon enough, Chester and Gerald made their way over to a farmer’s house. Once the door was opened, the pale-faced Chester kneeled before the family of three which consisted of the daughter he had hurt alongside her parents. “Y-young lord?! T-to what do we owe the pleasure…?” stuttered the father, as all three of them trembled in fear. “I have come to beg for your forgivenes

Hearing that, Jasmine turned to look at Gerald rather doubtfully. It was only a little while later when she realized that the one ruthless and arrogant young lord had now truly surrendered to Gerald. “I apologize for all the mistakes I’ve made! I truly am sorry!” said Chester as he repeatedly lowered his head till his forehead touched the ground. While she had initially wanted to kill him, after seeing how miserable he was, Jasmine simply replied, “…There’s no need to apologize any further to me… Instead, you should be apologizing to those who you’ve hurt. After all, while my family has made it through this daunting experience without mishap, that isn’t the case for the other families… Regardless, if it’s punishment you seek, then I’ll let Gerald make the final say! His words will be as good as mine!” After saying that, Jasmine then turned to look at Gerald. Women were sometimes like this. While Jasmine had first been uncertain whether she really had fallen for Gerald, when s
Chapter 1150
It was at that moment when Yume led a middle-aged man into the room where Gerald and the other two currently were. The moment Yume saw that Jasmine—who seemed to be as charming and attractive as Yume was—was standing quite close to Gerald, for some unknown reason, she couldn’t help but feel slightly uncomfortable. Due to that discomfort, however, her tone was slightly harsher as she coldly said, “Here’s the person you were looking for, Gerald! Mr. Yarrow here had brought along all the island’s relevant information on that year!” With that, she moved to stand on Gerald’s other side. Seeing that, Jasmine herself began carefully sizing up the beauty who was now standing as close to Gerald as she was. As sparks flew between the two women, the middle-aged man—who was holding onto the information in his hands—greeted, “Mr. Crawford!” “A pleasure to have you here, Mr. Yarrow. Please, have a seat.” Tim Yarrow was someone from the cultural affairs bureau in Montholm City. Accordi

‘They seemed to have come with a purpose in mind… The master seems to know who they are as well.’ ‘The master flew up and entered the flying house to discuss something with them… But none of us know what they’re talking about…’ ‘They’ve negotiated for quite some time… Some time while they were negotiating, the flying house submerged below the waves, bringing master along with it…’ ‘Night has come… We’re all tossing and turning, barely able to sleep… All we can do now is guard the fairy’s corpse…’ ‘It’s late at night now, and it’s my turn to stand guard… Including me, my group had nine people…’ ‘…I’m writing this after that terrifying event… The incident that changed my fate forever…’ ‘While we were standing guard, the fairy suddenly came alive! Standing in front of us, her expression was livid as she coldly asked us where we were taking her to…’ ‘Not daring to play any games, we truthfully told her all that we knew… Upon hearing our explanation, she was infuriated! I stil
Chapter 1152
Yume herself remained stunned on the spot for quite a while. It was late at night when Gerald could be seen meditating on his bed, listening to the ocean breeze as he thought about the new discoveries he had made tonight. According to what the survivor had said, a particularly powerful and wrathful woman had appeared that night, resulting in the death of the other eight people who had been standing guard over the coffin with him. Who was she? And what did she mean when she said that she had awoken in time? Whatever the case was, the woman seemed to be filled with immense resentment. Aside from the woman, the terrible wailing from within the flying house was also something that couldn’t easily be forgotten. Could all those who had been captured by the Sun League be in there? Were Mila and his uncle in there? The mention of all those wretched wails from within the house had definitely shocked Gerald earlier. As for the woman in white, she had probably surrendered to the mys

While both Chester and Yume had already been stunned, their jaws truly dropped the moment they saw Gerald leap toward the other ship! The moment Gerald’s foot touched the wooden ship’s surface, it instantly caused a huge wave to form as the ship bobbed up and down due to the impact of Gerald’s landing! Eventually, the ripples slowed down and Gerald took the chance to begin looking around. From what he could see, it seemed to be an average-sized wooden ship that could accommodate about forty to fifty people. It also seemed to have a bit of history to it. Stepping into the cabin, there seemed to be an old and torn curtain hanging outside the cabin’s windows. As a result, though it was quite sunny outside, the inside of the cabin remained quite dark. After looking around for a while, Gerald began trying to feel his surroundings. The force he had sensed surrounding the ship earlier was now nowhere to be found… It was odd, to say the least. With that, Gerald slowly drew the curt

After shouting in astonishment, Gerald immediately turned back to look at the old woman, prepared to launch an attack. However, before he was even able to take a step forward, Gerald suddenly felt all four of his limbs weaken as a dizzy spell simultaneously swept through him. ‘What? But how is this possible?! I’ve long been immune to all poisons!’ Gerald thought to himself as he slowly kneeled to the floor with one knee, his dizziness intensifying. Seeing that, the old woman smiled wickedly as she slowly began walking toward him while saying, “I can see that your physique is quite different compared to ordinary people… However, do know that the Dead Annies here were initially something different! Let’s just say that they’re a near-perfect counter against you!” Feeling that he was going to pass out soon if he didn’t do anything quickly, Gerald placed all his remaining focus on using his divine thought to call out, ‘Dawnbreaker!’ Following that, the Dawnbreaker instantly shot o
