Apocalypse After

Meeting Old Friends

Meanwhile, in the Golden Wheat bar.

“Why are you daydreaming, Gery?”

The people who were drinking looked at Gery with a confused expression on their faces. Since returning, that person had directly ordered a lot of wine then drank himself with an empty expression, eyes wide open, and looked a little confused.

Gery is one of those people they find amazing. There was no way such a person could be stunned because of such an ordinary matter. So the people started surrounding him and asked, seemingly thirsty for hot gossip.

“You guys are too noisy! Just go! I'm going to drink alone!”

Gery who had just regained his senses from his daydream immediately shouted to drive the people away. He was not at all satisfied with those who were in contact with him even though he was thinking so hard.

Looking at the angry Gery, they looked at each other and returned to their respective places knowing that the man was not in a good mood. Those people had no intention of bothering him because Gery was not a person who easily messed around.

After the men left, Gery pinched his chin with a serious expression on his face. The man recalled the fight between Alexander and Yona. He had not expected that such a friendly mysterious figure could fight so fiercely. It looked fierce and ruthless, even making a level 3 hunter a hassle.

‘Since when was the world filled with such people? Wasn't it normally that level 2 or so hunters were middle-aged men? Pretty lady? The mysterious young figure? It seems that all this time I've been living too casually.

The wind has changed direction. If it doesn't change, it seems that I'll really be crushed in the coming storm.’

While thinking about various possibilities in the future, Gery decided to further strengthen his relationship with Alexander, Yona, and the young people who have a bright future. At least ... have a chance to climb to higher ground.

About a week later.

BRUK!

Aster fell to the ground violently, the sword slipped out of its grip. He looked towards Daisy who was also lying on the grass not far from him. The woman's gaze then went towards Alexander who was standing quietly with no expression on his face.

“You are growing well during this one week. Do not relax your vigilance. At least try to have the ability to protect yourself and escape,” Alexander said.

“WELL!” reply the two in unison.

“Beraktur briefly, then you can breakfast.”

After saying that, Alexander immediately left.

Moments after Alexander left, Daisy and Aster sat in the backyard enjoying the morning sun.

“Is something wrong, Brother Daisy?” asked Aster with a confused expression on his face.

The woman felt something was wrong with Daisy for the past few days. Not only did Alexander act cooler and stern than usual, Aster also saw Daisy often daydreaming and looking sad. It obviously made him confused and curious.

“Nothing,” reply Daisy with a smile on her face.

“Stop dodging. I'm not an outsider, Daisy! Don't mind everything yourself. We depend on each other, okay?” aster said with a stern face.

“It ..” Daisy seemed to doubt. “Do you think I'm so useless?”

“Hah? Why are you suddenly asking such a strange question?”

“Jawab only!” daisy was not satisfied.

“Of course not. You are obviously a useful person. Not only helps a lot, but your fighting ability is also-“

“Stop comforting me Aster. I know what I really am. On that night, I could only be stunned at my place. Unlike you who are ready to fight at any time, I can only stay there. Even I feel scared!

It seems like whenever I can't take care of myself. I ... I'm just an ordinary person who has no fighting talent, can only do homework and bring stuff.”

Daisy interrupted Aster's speech. While explaining what she was thinking, the woman looked towards her cousin with a depressed expression as well as envy.

At that time, Aster who could not stand directly grabbed Daisy's wrist. He pulled his cousin to get up and followed her into the house.

When entering the house, Aster immediately brought the distressed-looking Daisy to Alexander who was drinking tea. Despite knowing that his master was not in a good mood, he still ventured to speak.

“Master! Do you think Daisy's useless? He seems to keep thinking that, so I want to know the answer right from your mouth.”

Seeing Aster acting so boldly, Daisy was terrified. He was afraid that Alexander would be angry. Not only did he treat them badly, but he also held grudges because they had disturbed him.

Meanwhile, Aster had another thought. Now he could be considered as the ‘property’ belonging to the young man in front of him. Either his life and death had nothing to do with him anymore. Whether it was poisoned, tortured, or sacrificed .. It was already in his head. So Aster doesn't really care.

Aster has given everything, and he is very sure that Alexander understands that. The young man would definitely not treat him or his cousin badly.

Whether it was hard combat training, so solid learning. But all of that was not only useful for Alexander himself, but also the two of them.

Alexander was stunned for a moment in his place. He looked towards Aster who had a serious expression, then towards Daisy who looked frightened.

“Do you think like that Daisy?” ask Alexander.

“It ... That is indeed true Mr.” Daisy nodded, not daring to lie in front of Alexander at all.

“Then I will remind you. Please remember this is Daisy.

You're actually very normal. For people who had not been used to fighting since childhood or plunging into battle, seeing scenes where powerful people or monstrous monsters fought frightened them. That's a normal thing.

Actually you yourself have a good talent in making potions and that helps me a lot. Moreover, your talent in fighting and learning things is already good, even surpassing many people.

Don't compare you to Aster because he's a little different. Aster isn't like you. Honestly speaking, he had good talent. But Aster is not without weaknesses. He was also very bad at distinguishing herbs and how to cultivate them.

Everyone has their own talents. But I have to remind you. Talent alone can determine the starting line where starting is easier compared to others, but can not determine the final limit.

Are all high-level hunters talented? Not necessarily. Some of them are people who fight for everything. Although it is longer and the road is also steep, they can get there (high level).

Conversely, there were also many talented people dying early because of their arrogance.

So I'll warn you both. Talent does not determine everything. Don't be discouraged if talent is bad, work harder. Do not be arrogant if talent is good, be careful and do not be lazy if you do not want to die.

Do you guys understand?”

Alexander's explanation made the two women ponder. Their expressions became more relaxed, then became serious and determined. They knew what Alexander meant, so they both nodded and replied in unison.

“Good Sir!”

Her night.

On a night with the moon and stars hanging in the sky, four people walked from circle 4 to circle 5. Since it wasn't too long ago back from the hunt, those people wanted to relax to spend their night.

Just past an alley, they saw a dark gray-robed figure leaning against a pole. Beneath the red lantern that illuminated the surrounding area.

Seeing that, the expressions of the four of them became even more solemn. They immediately pulled out their weapons and were ready to fight.

Just then, the dark gray-robed figure also felt their gazes. The person stared at them, then opened the hood that covered his head. His identity was a young man who looked handsome but was also quite cold.

The young man slightly raised his lips then said to the four people who were shocked.

“It's been quite a while, Claude.”
