Chapter 1355
Rushing to the door, the second Seth opened it, he was instantly greeted by the tip of a pistol being pointed at his forehead! Upon recovering from his shock, he slowly backed off as several guards—dressed in suits—quickly began exiting the house together with Suri as well as Seth’s grandfather, both of them held at gunpoint. “Nobody moves or I’ll shoot!” yelled a middle-aged man—who seemed to be the leader of the group—as over a dozen more armed bodyguards rushed out from the woodshed behind the house. Currently, everyone—who wasn’t a guard—had at least a few guns aimed at them, though Gerald was by far the one being targeted the most. Following that, the middle-aged man excitedly said, “For you to predict that Gerald would be here, you truly have incredible foresight, eldest young lady! We’ve truly made a great achievement this time!” At that moment, a young woman and man—who looked rather handsome—walked out and stood side by side, smiling coldly as they looked at the scen

With that in mind, Gerald truly felt like laughing at their attempt at capturing him. “Humph! Boasting even when you’re about to die? How shameless! I hope you realize that I only lost that day since I was careless! Regardless, from the moment I lost, I knew that I’d never be able to forget how humiliating that moment was for the rest of my life! Knowing that, I swore that I’d kill you sooner or later to reclaim my glory, and now, you’re finally in my grasp!” declared Fernando before coughing slightly. From that, it was a clear sign that his injuries—that Gerald had inflicted upon him back then—hadn’t even properly healed yet. “He’s right! We need to settle this resentment between us, once and for all! I definitely won’t be letting you off that easily this time!” scoffed Matilda before laughing maliciously. In response, however, Gerald simply shook his head before saying, “What a pity…” Narrowing his eyes, Fernando then asked, “…What did you mean by that? And why are you shakin

“…How… is any of this even possible…?” muttered the flabbergasted Fernando under his breath. “I’ve already told you that those guns were nothing but toys to me. As for your guards, they only have as much presence as rag dolls! You truly shouldn’t have acted that rashly you know? Hurting my friend… You truly are courting death, aren’t you?” replied Gerald with a subtle smile. “…I… I don’t believe that you’re that almighty! Men! Let’s kill him together!” ordered Fernando while gritting his teeth in resentment. ‘We’re of the same age… How could he be so much more powerful than me…?!’ By that point, all of the guards were already greatly aware of how dangerous their current situation was. What they were currently feeling was akin to them falling into a frigid cave with no way out. With nerve-wracking chills running down their spines, the guards knew that death could greet them at any second. However, they weren’t willing to just go out like this! Wanting to live to see another da

Just as Gerald had said, Fernando was now pretty much as good as dead. The second Gerald pointed his finger at him, Fernando instantly vomited blood before flopping lifelessly to the ground. Matilda herself was already screaming in terror as she tugged at her hair. Falling to her knees before Gerald, she instantly began begging, “P-please spare my life…! I swear none of what I did was on purpose…! Please, please don’t kill me…!” “You’ve been given enough chances. Now cease!” replied Gerald as he pointed his finger at her as well, sending a hollow knife slashing across the devastated woman’s neck! Falling to the ground, it was only a second later when Matilda breathed her last breath. After witnessing all that had happened, Rosie found herself shivering as she said, “…How… How frightening… To think that you were able to kill so many people in such a short amount of time…!” “I only kill those who deserve to die,” replied Gerald casually. At that moment, he suddenly raised his

‘Back then, Gerald could hardly withstand a single blow from me… It isn’t even a stretch to say that he was nothing more than a puppet to me just a few days ago! Even so, to think that he’s become such an exceptional person in his short absence… I hate to admit it, but at his current strength, he isn’t too far off from what I’m capable of… No wonder he’s been so confident…!’ Queena thought to herself. ‘While it shouldn’t be too difficult for me to defeat him at his current strength, capturing and controlling him will be near-impossible now! After all, from what I can tell, he can easily evade me now, and extremely easily too!’ Watching as Queena continued pondering the situation, Gerald simply glared at her before saying, “While I’m incapable of killing you at the moment, I’ll have you know that capturing me won’t be an easy feat!” “…You… What did you say…? You wish to kill me…?” replied Queena in disbelief. ‘I’ve loved you for tens of thousands of years…! Tell me, are there an

“Go on…” “Well, I’m seeking union between the both of us. You see, by relying on the pure yang energy in your body, I’ll be able to be just like her and get the chance to practice Thunder Eruption as well. Once I’ve gotten the hang of it, I’ll be able to travel back and forth between earth and Jaellatra! In other words, I’ll be one step closer to achieving my dream of going through true rebirth!” Upon hearing that, Gerald deepened his voice as he replied, “…I see. From what I now understand, both of you wish to breach into Jaellatra again… If that’s the case, negotiation isn’t completely out of the question!” “A negotiation? What are your terms?” “Well, for now, I suggest we form an alliance in order to take down the King of Judgment Portal. I have two reasons to back that up. Firstly, I could die by his hands if I don’t get sufficient help. Secondly, from what I can understand, he’s probably not too keen on allowing you to have your way either, isn’t he?” proposed Gerald. “A

“But of course I’ll come along! After all, this is the first time you’ve even suggested for me to stay by your side!” replied Queena with a seductive smile. Hearing that, Gerald simply nodded at her with a faint smile. Naturally, he wasn’t about to tell her that he was going to save the woman in white at midnight. However, he was also well aware that if he wasn’t willing to make at least a slight compromise, then he’d surely end up suffering much greater losses should Queena ruin his efforts while he was summoning the woman in white’s soul… It was about an hour later when Gerald asked, “Seth, do you truly remember where the snake cave is…?” The trio who were currently following Seth—after all four of them entered the mountain—consisted of Rosie—who had been curious about the snake cave—Queena—who had agreed to come along since Gerald invited her to—and Gerald himself. “Of course I do! However, since this place is rather secluded, I still need to gather my bearings a bit bette

Aside from that, there were also several depictions of massive birds and beasts, and nobody could tell whether they were drawn that way deliberately. Continuing to scan through, Gerald soon saw a rather familiar image of a massive bat-like creature. Looking at it for a while, Gerald found himself thinking, ‘...I met something similar to that back in the mine where I saved Yume and obtained the water repellent stone, right…? A large bat with the head of a human… While I had first assumed that it was some bat demon that had undergone immense training, since it’s on this mural, it wouldn’t be out of the question for it to actually be some kind of ancient creature that survived till today… But… How could that even be possible…? There are simply too many peculiar things at play…’ Turning to look at Queena—who had been utterly fascinated by all the things in the cave for a while now—Gerald asked, “…Say, what kind of world is being depicted on the walls…? Could it actually be earth?” He
