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

“I appreciate that!” replied Yul as he sipped on the juice before starting to eat. It was evident that he was still being extremely wary with his actions and words… Noticing that, Gerald simply smiled before saying, “Still, didn’t you just receive three hundred thousand dollars…? Why are you still being so hard on yourself? By that, I’m referring to the fact that you were only eating steamed buns with pickles when Perla and I found you!” “I… don’t dare to use the money… Though, I don’t mind handing the money over to you, if that’s what you want!” replied Yul. Shaking his head with a smile, Gerald simply said, “We’re not here for your money, Yul. We’re here to ask you how you got your hands on the Heavenly Horsetail Whisk. From the looks of it, it doesn’t seem like you were the one who had made the plan to auction it off in the first place!” Pondering for a moment, Yul eventually raised his head before saying, “…I… I’m really sorry, but I can’t tell you that… Look, if it’s money

Upon hearing Zenny’s words, Gerald instantly replied, “…What? I’m going to become Master Ghost’s master? Could you elaborate on that?” “Indeed! Master Ghost had already mentioned it to me several times before, but he’s been waiting for the longest time for someone to take him under their wing. From the looks of how things have been progressing, it seems that it’s already been determined that you’re the person he’s been waiting for. What more, he’s even sent you a greeting and such a lavish gift upon your arrival in the Jenna Province! I have a suspicion that once you’re done with what happens during the underground festival, you’ll surely be able to take a massive step forward, Gerald! No, master!” said Zenny. “That’s nonsense! There are still many things I have to trouble Master Ghost with once I locate him. With that said, why would he even be talking about greeting me as a master?” replied Gerald. “What more, while it’s true that I’ve encountered a few miracles, I feel that th

“The underground festival has been around for a long time, and every time this festival is held, it’s usually in conjunction with the emergence of certain powerful resources!” explained Julian. “Powerful resources? Could you be referring to the training resources necessary for those who wish to train themselves to achieve spiritual enlightenment?” asked Gerald with a nod, seemingly understanding what Julian was getting at. “Indeed, but the reason the festival is held isn’t limited to the emergence of regular training resources either, sir! At times, the festival is also held when magic artifacts capable of destroying the world are found! While such items are certainly tempting for ordinary people to purchase and boast about, they’re invaluable treasures to those training to attain spiritual enlightenment!” “With that said, there’s always competition when it comes to such resources. It’s the reason why those training to attain spiritual enlightenment choose to ignore their agreeme

“At the Heartstone Manor in Jenna City! By this point in time, there should already be many people training to attain spiritual enlightenment there!” replied Julian. “I see. If that’s the case, I’ll be heading over there to check things out first!” said Gerald with a nod. “Allow me to accompany you, sir!” replied Julian. “There’s no need for that. You’re simply too big of a target, and I truly believe that you’ll easily be discovered by the others training to attain spiritual enlightenment. Unlike you, I’m capable of using my breath-holding technique and that’ll allow me to appear like an ordinary person. With that said, Perla can come with me instead,” said Gerald before turning to look at Terrance. “As for you, Mr. Sherwin, I’m afraid I’ll have to trouble you with something…” “Do state you wish, sir!” “Well, I’d like you to get me admission tickets to participate in the underground festival!” “That won’t be a problem at all, sir!” replied Terrance. By this point in ti

Hearing that, the trio then agreed to head to Heartstone Manor together first. Yul had come looking for Perla since the Sherwins had initially been quite a prestigious and influential family in Jenna City. However, due to the Dun family’s schemes, the fall of the Sherwin family came shortly after. With that in mind, though Perla had initially driven a luxury car worth at least seven hundred and fifty thousand dollars, she now only drove an ordinary BMW 7 Series. Of course, Gerald didn’t mind that at all. On their way there, Perla began telling Gerald about the Heartstone Manor. As it turned out, the manor had a history of over a thousand years, and the earliest depictions of it stated that the manor had first been established by a prince and nobleman from ancient times. Later on, the manor was eventually contracted by the Waddys who acted as the manor’s developer. Following that, they began conducting many large-scale tourism projects there. Aside from that, the manor was als

Following that, Jenny and the others covered their mouths as they laughed. While she hadn’t confirmed whether Gerald was truly a pathetic pauper, she simply assumed that that was the case since he didn’t actually look like someone who came from a good background. With that in mind, she simply ran her mouth without a care in the world. “Jenny! You can insult me all you want, but you aren’t allowed to insult my master!” retorted the enraged Perla. “…What? He’s your master?!” yelled Jenny as she and her group of friends roared out in laughter. “Speaking of masters… I heard from my mother that your grandfather doesn’t even seem to care about his business anymore. She mentioned something about him bringing you around to look for a famous master to teach you martial arts or something… Could it actually be that… That guy’s the famous master that your grandfather got for you?!” added Jenny who was still covering her mouth from laughing so much. Seconds after she said that, a strong-

“N-no…! Stop…!” cried out Jenny, her face filled with tears by this point as she rolled on the ground in pain. Finally realizing how much pain Jenny was in, Benson instantly released Gerald’s hand before running over to Jenny’s side. “What’s wrong?!” asked Benson as he stared at the pale-faced Jenny who was unable to even try hiding the immense pain she was currently feeling. “I-it hurts…! The pain alone makes me feel like dying…!” cried out Jenny. Seeing that they were no longer trying to stop him from leaving, Gerald simply shook his head with a wry smile on his face before leaving together with Perla and Yul. Meanwhile, Poppy found herself asking, “How could this have happened though? Why would you be in so much pain for no reason?” “Beats me! Actually, didn’t any of you notice that Jenny’s chest only started hurting when Benson started exerting his strength earlier?” “That sounds freaky! Speaking of which, hold on. Where even are they?” asked Benson—who was already dr
