Chapter 1359
‘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

Nodding, Queena then replied, “Indeed. See, the Immortal Body is a realm that used to only exist in legends. It was said that if a person ever entered that realm, then they’d be able to exist alongside heaven and earth. In other words, nothing would be able to truly destroy them. Though it was said that there was one person who was able to attain that legendary realm during that civilization, it’s pretty much just a legend!” “…Assuming the legend is true, that should suggest that that exceptional person should still be alive, correct? But that couldn’t be, right? He should’ve still died along with his civilization!” said Gerald rather curiously. “Well, I, at least, believe that he died. My guess is that he never truly entered the realm of the Immortal Body. Even so, he was still an immensely exceptional person who had strength that clearly defied the natural order. Why else did so many people respect and admire him…” explained Queena. “I see… Speaking of Jaellatra, how much do yo

Watching as she gazed with gentler eyes than before, Gerald replied, “I still have some things I wish to learn about. I’ll meet up with you once I’m done settling those issues!” “Very well! I’ll be waiting then!” said Queena with a smile. Following that, her body momentarily swayed… And the next thing anyone knew, she had disappeared! Taking a step forward in surprise, Rosie then turned back to look at Gerald before saying, “Is… Is she human or a ghost…?” “Half of both, I’d say!” replied Gerald as he turned to look at the direction Queena had dashed off to while heaving a long sigh. With that, he then brought Rosie back to the shantytown to meet up with Leo and the others. Noticing that the other man was not present, Gerald then asked Monica where he was. After being told that the man had yet to return, Gerald found himself feeling slightly dissatisfied as he thought, ‘Where on earth has he gone to? What’s taking him so long…?’ It was a little while later when Queena fina

“…What? She’s gone missing…?!” growled Queena in rage. “P-please spare me, master…! She truly was still in her room earlier! While I did hear her talking to someone earlier, I didn’t pay much attention to it since I simply assumed that she was talking to Hattie! By the time I went in to check on her again, she was nowhere to be seen and Hattie was already in a coma!” As the servant had said before, Hattie was the personal maid that Queena had assigned for Jasmine, and true to the servant’s words, the second Queena entered the room for herself, she found that Jasmine really was absent and that Hattie was still lying in a coma! Following that, Queena closed her eyes slightly to concentrate on her surroundings. A little while later, she opened them again before coldly saying, “…From what I can tell, she was rescued by others earlier. I believe they haven’t escaped too far, so launch an immediate search party for them around the area!” Shuddering with fear, everyone immediately o

Adding that to what he had earlier said, Jasmine instantly began trembling all over as she asked, “…Could… Could it be that you’re my aunt’s missing husband…? The uncle me and Gerald share…?” Chuckling as he smiled, the man then replied, “You truly are as smart as your aunt, Jasmine...” “…So, it's really true…?!” exclaimed Jasmine as she covered her mouth in shock. “…Sir- No, uncle… Haven’t you gone missing for ages…? Why are you only showing yourself now….? Also, how did your appearance turn out this way…?” Based on what her aunt had once told her, Peter Crawford—her uncle—was quite a handsome and elegant man. With that in mind, his current hideous expression would shock just about anyone! “Let’s just say that I needed to end up this way in order to escape! Still, this appearance isn’t all that bad since it allows me to hide my true identity. In fact, it’s thanks to how I look that I’ve been able to easily investigate a few incidents!” replied Peter, his eyes returning to th
