Chapters 1970.
After saying that, Christos sighed before moving his hair to the side, revealing his completely burnt face.
Except for the narrow slit of his eyes and his severely deformed nose and mouth, everything else was completely charred.
Of course, this took Gerald by surprise. After all, even such a powerful person like Christos ended up getting such terrible wounds in the Outremonde Realm. It seems like the place is really very dangerous.
Regardless, Christos then added in a serious tone,
"Once again, I advise you not to get more information about Alam Autremonde. Forget about the power of inheritance and live your life well. Otherwise, you'll end up like me!"
While Gerald knew Christos meant well, he naturally would not do what the old man said. With that, Gerald then knelt down in front of Christos before respectfully pleading, asking,
"I understand that you care about my well-being, senior Christos... However, I insist that I go there, and in order to do so, I hope you will help me unlock the stone monument so that I can head to the Autremonde Realm!"
Upon hearing that, Christos could only sigh helplessly.
"Even if you don't look like Daryl, I see you inherited his stubbornness. Well, since you are so determined to die, so be it! Just understand that you have to bear all the consequences of your actions!"
Christos said, it was very pleasant Gerald.
To be honest, Gerald only needed Christos' help to open a portal to the Autremonde Realm. Once he was there, he was already expecting to do everything himself.
While it was true that he thought so that Christos would not have to risk dying again by following him, Gerald was honestly more worried about having to deal with Christos' drinking problem along the way if the old man came.
Chapters 1971.
Whatever the case may be, just a few seconds later Gerald and Christos' expressions turned serious. Both of them sensed an enormous killing intent rapidly approaching them from the outside!
"..Looks like you've been followed, son! You have a lot of enemies or something?" Grunts Christos.
Since Christos had been hiding here for decades, there was no way the enemy would come for him. With that in mind, Gerald understood that it made sense for those assassins to go after him.
Still, to think that news of him arriving at Rico would spread so quickly. Gerald, for example, did not expect others would chase him this fast! Had his enemies been watching him all this time.?
After all, Gerald could only lower his head in embarrassment as he said,
"I'm sorry about this, senior Christos...! Allow me to deal with them first!"
Adding to the fact that not a single soul was seen walking on the streets, the scene was undoubtedly sinister. It almost feels like danger lurks around every corner.
A split second after Gerald thought that, a few blades started flying towards him! While Gerald could avoid everything - resulting in a knife stuck in the door behind him - it was too dark to see his attacker.
However, it didn't take long before some murderous-looking men - all wearing black suits - emerged from the shadows!
They all had long swords in hand, and they quickly surrounded the young man.
Chapters 1972.
While the gunmen were not entirely weak, to Gerald, they were by no means his opponent.
However, before anyone - including Gerald - could make a move, a blurry figure suddenly walked out of the grocery store!
Stopping right in front of Gerald, the figure then released a powerful shockwave from his palm, making all the men in black clothes fly! By the time they landed, they were all dead!
Of course, the one who did the deed was none other than Christos, and his strength naturally shocked Gerald. Then again, Gerald was more startled by the fact that Christos had helped him get those people out from the start.
Whatever the case may be, Christos then looked at Gerald somewhat disdainfully before saying,
"Hey, why are you even wasting time with those fools? You said you needed my help to head to Autremonde Realm, didn't you? Let's go then!"
After hearing that, Gerald felt ashamed. After all, while he could take those people out easily, he did not do it immediately like Christos did.
Regardless, since Christos had dealt with them, he had one thing to worry about. Still, Gerald had to hand it over to the old man. After all, he still maintained his strength after so many years.
After all, the two then went to Dragonott. As soon as they boarded their plane, Gerald inevitably asked,
"Magor Christos... According to the notebook, the stone monument leading to the Autremonde Realm is located on top of Mount Kenloux... Really it?"
"Bingo. Upon activation, it would open a portal to the Autremonde Realm!"
Christos replied, prompting Gerald to nod.
Once they reached Dragonott, the two then got into the car before heading straight for Mount Kenloux.
