For this person to just call out his name like that… Also, his tone suggested that he truly did know about Gerald’s past and background pretty well… “…Have we met before? I don’t think I know any masters who’ve trained to achieve spiritual enlightenment!” said Gerald in slight surprise. Upon hearing that, both the black-robed man and Federico instantly burst out laughing. “Again, you truly are as stupid as ever…! Regardless, I didn’t expect you to still be able to remain this calm even after I’ve exposed your clunky acting! Either way… Do you really wish to know who I am? I fear you’ll be overwhelmingly shocked once you know my true identity!” replied the black-robed man with a triumphant smile. After looking at the sneering Federico, Gerald then turned to face the black-robed man who was currently ridiculing him. He truly had no idea what was so funny. Regardless, while Gerald could’ve just used his divine vision to figure out who this person truly was—given how crude his bl

Choosing not to answer him verbally, Gerald simply mimicked what Yin Yang had done earlier—in order to use the sword tactic—before pointing in a random direction… All of a sudden, the room began trembling wildly, causing the surrounding walls to crack and even begin crumbling! Following that, a massive sword that glowed purple and black began manifesting! The sheer force of the summoning process alone caused strong winds to blow, and the next thing Terrance and Manager Waferer—who had been standing at the side—knew, the corners of their mouths were already bleeding due to how sharp the blades of wind were! However, they were far too preoccupied with staring wide-eyed at the powerful-looking sword of light before them to even notice that they were hurt! It looked so powerful that it wouldn’t be a stretch to say that it could easily topple the entire restaurant with a single swing! With a slight gesture, Gerald made the sword momentarily disappear… Once it reappeared, it was tiny

Watching as Yin Yang nodded repeatedly, Gerald then said, “Repeat what I asked then before you answer my question!” Gulping, Yin Yang then muttered, “Y-you asked me how I had obtained my title and why I had chosen to stay by Young Master Dun’s side…!” Wiping the sweat off his forehead, Yin Yang then added, “Truth be told, I only managed to figure all this out about half a year after training to attain spiritual enlightenment. Mr. Crawford, did you know that the world is more exciting and amazing than anything you could’ve ever imagined? For starters, there’s a realm- no, an entire world that can be assessed by those training to attain spiritual enlightenment! However, you should also know that many of them later choose to live and work alongside regular people! We refer to this as joining society!” “Speaking of which, while it’s true that those who have attained spiritual enlightenment have great power and influence that could easily be used to take control over planet’s order, i

Seeing that, Gerald instantly grabbed hold of the girl’s waist before helping her up! “My god! What the hell are you doing?! Are you actually taking advantage of Xyrielle right before our very eyes?!” yelled the enraged girls. To think that he was being so daring out in public, and in front of them, no less! “I-it isn’t what you think, Xaverie…!” said Xyrielle, hoping to stop her friends from saying anything unnecessary. “There’s no need to be afraid, Xyrielle! We’re here to defend you! Whatever the case is, I’m making a call now so that this kid pays for what he’s done!” said Xaverie as her angered friends united against their common enemy. “You’ve got it all wrong! He was simply preventing me from falling just now! There’s a pit hole there, see?” explained Xyrielle. “…Huh?” replied her friends, all startled to hear that. After realizing what had truly happened, their glares softened slightly. Xyrielle, on the other hand, found herself blushing slightly as she looked at

As those from within the crowd continued discussing the matter, Xyrielle and the others simply listened in to their conversations while glancing at Stetson. From what they could see, Stetson had a very cold personality. After all, he didn’t even seem to bother about all of the people who were treating him extremely courteously. Instead, he simply walked off with an indifferent expression on his face… Naturally, the discussions soon died out since Stetson was no longer there. As the crowd slowly dispersed, Xyrielle found herself thinking, ‘That couldn’t be the love of my life, right…?’ While it was true that Stetson satisfied all the conditions that the fortune-teller had mentioned, her heart wasn’t throbbing for him at all. Observing Xyrielle’s expression, Xaverie then grinned as she poked her arm while asking, “Well, Miss Xyrielle Waddys? What are you thinking about?” “I’m not thinking about anything!” “I can already guess what’s on your mind, so you don’t have to say a
