With that in mind, Yume suddenly finds herself becoming very envious of the woman that made Gerald fall in love. Eliminating that thought, he then asked. “...So..You took a woman in white to have Gerald take the initiative come looking for us..?”.
"Indeed. After all, it was the safest way to lure Gerald to us! With any luck, we can finally catch him! After all, I really did not expect that he would actually manage to escape from us so many times! I was prepared to receive good news from Felton centuries ago, but to think that he managed to escape again! ”
“...Say, grandma....Hercules Primordial Spirit...Is it hidden inside his body…? Does that mean once you catch him, you have to injure or kill Gerald.?” ask Yume.
Shaking his head slightly, Yreth then replied, “As you said, we only need the Primordial Spirit of Hercules. Whether we kill him or not, depends entirely on him!”
When she heard that, Yume immediately knelt down with a 'thud' before saying, “Please, grandma, I beg you. Please don't kill Gerald! Not only is he a good person, but since there is no real reason to kill him, then there is no need for you to take his life, right.?”
Reflecting on Yume's statement for quite a while, Yreth finally said, “...I'll make the final decision on that. However, I can promise you that I will only kill him if he shows resistance or tries to fight! If not, then I will keep him alive!”
Hearing that, Yume could not help feeling like a heavy weight had just been lifted from her heart. Looking at his overjoyed grandson, Yreth could only smile bitterly while shaking his head before saying, “Now quickly stand up, my foolish grandson!”
“Looks like I didn't spoil you in vain. Now, wouldn't it be nice if Felton was half as smart as you. Whatever, your doubts are indeed, guaranteed. While it was true that he resembled an ancient god and was flawless, nothing in this world was perfect. With that in mind, even though he managed to hide the secret for tens of thousands of years, those who were determined enough to decode finally managed to obtain that information, and Gerald himself could only know many things because of this. As for our own family, we know the secret because some vile criminals shared information with us about forty years ago! Of course, he didn't do it for free, and the condition for getting that information was that our family had to hand the Dead Mother Annie over to him!”
“Finally, we learned that after obtaining the magic artifact, he had planned to exterminate the Gunters! To think that he almost wiped out our entire family with just a scam!”
“...So..Are these the same enemies who wanted to take revenge on us forty years ago…? The person you sent to all the society to hunt? So is the reason behind all that!”
“I'm glad you finally understand everything! Also, if that's not clear enough, some powers have figured out Gerald's true identity and started taking action. While we discuss this topic, you should know that Gerald's rapid training growth is not because he has some sort of special physique. Oh no, it's just because someone out there is helping him unlock a lot of his potential. Surprisingly, that person did not let go of everything at once, just little by little. To make it easier to understand, you can imagine people scooping water from the sea, one spoon after another spoon.”
“However, the knowledge of it only makes Gerald even scarier. After all, Gerald was already this strong even though he had yet to unlock his full potential! If there comes a time when he manages to regain all of his strength, then all of us will just be ants to him! Just being stepped on by him will kill us! At that time, not only will the Gunters not be able to rise again, but we will also continue to face disasters and tragedies! With that in mind, do you now understand why our family and the Portal of Judgment are so afraid of Gerald.?”.
“Omong-by the way, I want you to know that I secretly observed it in the past. Although he used to have a very weak temperament in the past and he was the weakest and fragile, I cannot determine when it started, but he ended up growing more and more cold-hearted, she said, be careful, and thorough. Worse, he is growing faster now than ever before! It is no exaggeration to say that you will see a clear difference in Gerald even after just a few days of not meeting him! Such changes can be so drastic that there is a chance that you will not even be able to know who he is at all!”
