“…Don’t tell me… You don’t remember anything at all?” replied Gerald. Shaking his head in his slight confusion, it truly appeared that he had no memory of what had just taken place. “…Tell me, why did you swallow the vampiric pearl?” asked Gerald. After all, had the old man not swallowed it, he wouldn’t have entered that maddened state. “I… What? I… swallowed it…?!” replied Old Flint, his eyes widened in disbelief as he stared at Gerald. “You did! After swallowing it, you turned into a madman and started attacking us!” explained Gerald. After hearing everything that had happened from Gerald, Old Flint couldn’t help but look at the pearl—that was still on the ground—as he muttered in his bewilderment, “…I… The last thing I remember was you giving the pearl to me… I had no idea I did all that after that!” Staring at the old man, Gerald had a feeling that he wasn’t lying. Call it a gut feeling, but Gerald chose to believe Old Flint’s point of view. However, if Old Flint trul

As the two glints came closer, it was slowly revealed that they were the eyes of a huge white bear!Since Gerald and the others were currently fast asleep, none of them knew how dangerous their current situation was! Regardless, after looking at the five people who had dozed off at the cave’s entrance, the bear seemed particularly interested in Ray. The fact that Ray was snoring only attracted the bear’s attention even more! Slowly moving toward Ray, the bear quickly began licking his face! “…Five more minutes… What is it Gerald…? Has the snow stopped…?” mumbled the sleepy Ray as he began patting the bear’s face… The second he felt how unnaturally furry ‘Gerald’ was, Ray instantly froze. This… This wasn’t Gerald, was it. By the time he opened his eyes, Gerald and the others were already staring vigilantly at the bear. To think that such a dangerous creature would be living in this cave! With how close the bear was, all of them could smell it and even feel the warmth its body

Of course, Gerald wasn’t about to grant it that opportunity. Dodge rolling till he was right under the white bear’s belly, Gerald then stabbed it right into the beast! With how loudly the bear had roared in response, Gerald knew that he had finally managed to deal substantial damage on the bear! Even so, that stab wasn’t enough to kill it. In fact, it only made the bear even more enraged! Now looking like it had gone mad, the bear began attacking Gerald with all that it had! If it wasn’t for the fact that this was a life-or-death situation, the sight of Gerald and the bear leaping all over the mountain was honestly quite amusing. Regardless, after realizing that it wasn’t going to be able to get its hands on Gerald, the bear suddenly switched targets to the others who were hiding! Realizing that the bear was running toward his friends, Gerald then yelled, “Careful! It’s coming!” Seeing the incoming bear, the rest of Gerald’s party quickly attempted to disperse from the tr

Juno trusted Gerald a lot, which was why she wasn’t against Gerald’s dare-devilish suggestion. What more, if they leaped together, they’d at least die together… Though needless to say, surviving together was definitely still Juno’s main goal. Regardless, after readying themselves, Gerald then looked at Juno before asking, “Ready?” Watching as she nodded firmly, Gerald then hugged her tight… before both of them plunged deep into the valley! Falling faster, and faster, it was only a few seconds later when both of them fell into a body of running water with a massive splash! As they had guessed, there really was a river at the bottom, and thank god they were right. The river saved their lives… Whatever the case was, now that they were still alive, Gerald—who hadn’t let go of Juno this entire time—quickly swam Juno to the river bank… Now soaking wet and freezing—since the river water consisted of freshly melted snow from the mountains—Juno couldn’t help but find herself shive

Naturally, Juno wasn’t against that idea. Regardless, Gerald then got to work processing and butchering the wolf. He made sure to properly skin the wolf since wolf fur could be sold for a pretty hefty price. Once that was done, he then sliced the wolf’s meat into manageable pieces. After washing the meat by the river, Gerald started another fire. Once that was up, grilled wolf meat was soon to come… It was never a good idea to travel with an empty stomach and both of them knew it. With that in mind, eating till they were full was their current best course of action. In less than half an hour, the wolf meat was already well-done and both of them could finally dig in. Using a large leaf he found as a plate, Gerald then tore off a few chunks of the cooked meat before handing them to Juno. After getting some for himself as well, both of them then sat under a tree to enjoy their meal. Taking the first bite, Gerald—who really hadn’t tasted wolf meat before this—couldn’t help bu

A few vampires stared closely at Gerald and Juno, making sounds with their mouths incessantly. The two of them had been entirely targeted by the few vampires. During the next second, the few vampires launched an attack at the two of them one after another. They rushed at the two of them by baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. Gerald decisively drew out his Astrabyss Sword and made a slash swiftly. Soon a vampire who rushed up to them first was slashed in two by the Astrabyss Sword in Gerald’s hand directly. Blood gushed out everywhere. Witnessing that scene, the other three vampires retreated one after another, not daring to step forward. As their companion was slashed in half, they certainly knew how powerful that Astrabyss Sword in Gerald’s hand was. “Come on! Come at me if you’re not afraid of death!” Gerald stared at the remaining three vampires in front of him and said coldly. The three vampires seemed to understand Gerald’s words. They immediately tur

The very next morning, Gerald took Rey with him and set off. “Where are we headed to this early in the morning, Gerald?” asked the puzzled Rey. He hadn’t been able to get a good night’s sleep in the past few days, and when he was finally able to sleep in his own bed, Gerald had come early in the morning to drag him out! It truly made him feel helpless. “We’re going to the Dark Sect of Ghost City!” replied Gerald. As they talked on, they soon arrived at the tower of the Dark Sect of Ghost City… Since the manhunt for the Ember Lord was still on, the construction of the Dark Sect had been put to a halt, leaving the entire tower sealed. Due to that sudden halt, however, many people ended up losing their jobs. Just as the saying went, ‘Karma would always come back to bite’. Regardless, upon stepping before the tower’s entrance, both of them found that the door had been locked with chains. There was even a strip seal attached to it! “How do you propose we get in, brother Gera

Realizing that it was only Old Flint, Gerald and Rey breathed a sigh of relief. Old Flint, on the hand, couldn’t help but raise a slight brow as he puzzledly asked, “…It’s you two? What are you doing here? And how did you get in?” The chief inspector had already ordered him not to have any contact with Gerald anymore. What more, he had also been told that Gerald wasn’t allowed to help them in the investigation any longer. With that in mind, Old Flint could only obey his superiors. “We’re here looking for clues!” replied Gerald. “Look, I’m sorry, but you two aren’t allowed to get involved with this case anymore. With that in mind, please leave! If you return here again our only option will be to take you back with us!” warned Old Flint. Hearing that, Gerald simply nodded. Not wanting to make things difficult for the old man, Gerald then replied, “Copy that!” Just as he was about to leave with Rey, however, he heard Old Flint yelling, “Hold on a minute! Did you find any clu

“Hello? What is it, Gerald?” asked Old Flint from the other side of the line. “Old Flint, while I know you can’t let us join the investigation, I hope you can still help us out. Essentially, if you want to solve the case and capture the Ember Lord, listen closely and believe me when I say that everything that I’m about to tell you is going to be extremely important!” replied Gerald in a serious tone. Hearing that, Old Flint paused for a moment. Eventually, however, he knew he could trust Gerald, so he was willing to risk it. After all, both of them wanted the case to be solved and have the Ember Lord be captured. “…Alright, tell me how I can help!” “Head to the Census Bureau now. I’m currently heading over as well, and I’ll tell you more about it when we meet!” replied Gerald before hanging the call up. Half an hour later, Rey and Gerald met up with Old Flint at the assigned venue. “What are we even here for, Gerald…?” asked the confused old man. “Look, I need you to do a

There was no way in hell that those two facts could be coincidences. With that in mind, that could only mean that the Ember Lord was hiding there. However, since the Ember Lord had left that hint for them, it was possible that instead of finding him there, they would instead find the location of his next victim. After thinking about it for a while, Old Flint then started the car and immediately stepped on the gas! They needed to head to Yamilet Fae’s home right now! “Are you really sure that the Ember Lord will be hiding there, Gerald…?” asked Rey on their way there. Shaking his head, Gerald then replied with a serious expression, “To be quite honest, I’m not too sure. After all, the Ember Lord is a meticulous person who never plays by the rules. My guess is that the numbers will lead us to the next victim, but in finding that victim, we’ll surely get one step closer to where the Ember Lord is hiding!” Hearing that, Rey then nodded in understanding… After about forty minute
