Zeke remained skeptical. “Show me the recording.”
As requested by Zeke, Sole Wolf showed it to him.
Having watched the video, the stunned Zeke was equally confused.
In the video, Sherry was washing her clothes by the river. All of a sudden, when a bright flash appeared, she was
subsequently nowhere to be seen.
It was indeed as if she had vanished into thin air.
Sole Wolf continued, “Her disappearance scared the wits out of me. After searching everywhere, I found Sherry's
body in a river ten miles away. By the time I pulled her out, she was no longer breathing.”
Taking a deep breath, Zeke calmed himself down, for he realized Sole Wolf wasn't to blame.
Even if he had personally kept an eye on her, a different outcome wasn't guaranteed.
If my guess is correct, Yannick and Yoshua must be behind Sherry's disappearance. But how did they achieve
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtsomething like that? This is really strange. Considering small fries like Yannick and Yoshua wield such power, the
mysterious giant palm must be a lot more powerful than I imagine.
Zeke ordered Sole Wolf, “Get back on your feet. This isn't your fault.”
However, Sole Wolf refused, “Zeke, a failure is a failure; there's no room for excuses. Please punish me, as it will at
least make me feel better.”
“Get up and stop being so wishy-washy. We should gather Ares and the others for a surprise attack tonight.”
Sole Wolf asked curiously, “Surprise attack? Who are we going to ambush?”
“The brothers, Yannick and Yoshua, of course.”
“Understood!”
Soon, night had fallen.
With the moon shining brightly in the sky and a chilly breeze blowing in the air, a mysterious atmosphere descended
upon the entire cemetery.
The expansive cemetery had almost a hundred tombstones contained within its compound.
As for the one belonging to Sherry, it was located in a secluded corner.
Lying in wait nearby, Zeke and his men watched her grave closely.
If everything were to go according to plan, Yannick and Yoshua would arrive to take her body away.
Consequently, that was their only chance to capture the duo, one they couldn't afford to miss.
After waiting uneventfully till four in the morning, Sole Wolf's patience began to wear thin.
He used his energy to communicate telepathically with Zeke. “Zeke, do you think Yannick and Yoshua aren't coming
because they sensed our presence? Why don't I check the surrounding area? Perhaps I can spot Yannick's tracks.”
“Just be patient. It's unlikely Yannick has noticed us—”
All of a sudden, Zeke noticed a disturbance in his energy.
Hmm?
Even though it was minor, it didn't escape Zeke's vigilant senses.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe could feel an unknown force in the air, forcibly agitating his energy.
Whatever it was, it had to be extremely powerful to be capable of disrupting the energy of a Celestial Class warrior.
In spite of that, Zeke couldn't see anything that was physically doing it.
Consequently, there could only be one explanation—the space which his energy covered must have been distorted.
The distortion of space... The idea reminded Zeke of how Sherry “teleported” in an instant to a river that was ten
miles away.
Zeke used his energy to order immediately, “Stay sharp, everyone. The enemy might be upon us.”
The next second, Zeke could clearly see—at the spot where his energy was agitated—a hole being torn apart in the
air. Subsequently, a figure dropped out of it.
He was none other than Yannick.
Upon landing on the ground, Yannick stared at Sherry's grave, his gaze fired up with emotion.
“Sherry, I'm here to save you. Soon, I'll take you someplace far away from here, where both of us will grow old
together and never be apart.”
