A few seconds after he said that, everyone watched the figure slowly walk towards them from afar... And once he got close enough, Leo's eyes sparkled as he declared, "So it's really you, Mr Crawford!" Upon realizing Gerald's arrival, Peter finds himself smiling subtly as well. Spreading his previously narrowed eyes, the surprised Peter found himself muttering, "...Gerald... What happened to your training...?" It had only been a few days since the last time he met Gerald.. How did Gerald gain such terrifying strength in such a short time…? 'As Miss Lockland said, could it be that Gerald was no longer an ordinary human being...?' bit.ly/bacanovelgerald "Indeed. I asked him all the way until I finally caught up with you all here, Sir! Zyla!” gerald replied as he nodded with a smile before turning around to see a vaguely visible world hovering above him. After a brief silence to recover from his shock, Gerald finally said, “…While I have found many holy artifacts on my way here, I never thought that I would find a place like this…. A space—consists of some other space—which resembles a new world.. How can you find such a nice place? Zilla..?” "Miss Lockland was the one who found it and brought us to this place... According to him, this place is related to you!" replied Monica who was also present all along. Hearing that, Gerald turns to face Zyla before realizing that she has finally left Rosie's body. Apparently, he managed to recover quickly after possessing Rosie's body. With that in mind, Zyla had been living as an independent existence for a while now. Regardless, Gerald then asked curiously, "This ... is related to me ...?" bit.ly/bacanovelgerald To be honest, he was still confused about a lot of things. After all, Zyla—and the others—have not had the luxury to sit and talk long since that night. Therefore, Gerald was still unable to fully understand what the Primordial Spirit of Hercules was. Nodding in response, Zyla then replied, “Indeed. You should be well aware by now that there are many secrets hidden within you, Gerald... Also, now that we finally have time to talk, I wonder if you realize that even though Liemis is a part of you, you are not a part of him!” "…Come back? How's what…?" ask Gerald in wonder. “This is a big secret that Liemis and I knew about thousands of years ago, but know that that is the main reason I came to Earth with Liemis!” answer Zilla. “...And the secret is also related to me...?” gerald asked as his eyes widened upon seeing Zyla nod in confirmation. "really. In fact, the secret is pretty much directly related to you. In fact, while it is true that both Liemis and I came looking for you back then, we did not take into account the exact time it took for us to find you. Because of this, we bit.ly/bacanovelgerald ran into some trouble in the middle of our trip, which resulted in us dying here! However, before dying, Liamis sacrificed herself to allow me to save a small part of my soul.” explains Zyla, her sadness is clearly visible in her tone. “It.... did not answer why you were looking for me in the first place.. Also, how did you know about my existence, thousands of years before I was even born?” answer the flabbergasted Gerald. “I'm not sure how to explain it to you in detail. But know that you never really disappear. All that changes is the way you appear during different time periods!” Zyla. “...That's a lot of information to take.. I've had enough questions after saving two of my friends in Gunter's manor, and that's basically how I woke up for the first time. During the accident, the term, 'Spirit Primordial Hercules' was also mentioned, a term I still lacked in knowledge of... Whatever the case, that's the reason why I've become so strong in the last three days. With my current strength, I'm not even sure what realm I am in anymore!”
