Another World Mall -
Chapter 712 - 712: Six Months Later
Six months later.
*Tak!*
*Tak!*
*Tak!*
The clapping sound of high heels echoed across the hallway as a female doctor casually strolled in the hospital.
Yet, despite her familiar way of walking, the people couldn't help but have their gazes fixated on her, feeling unfamiliar but at the same time captivated by her beauty.
"Is there a doctor that beautiful in this hospital?"
"I don't know."
"This is the first time I see her…"
The doctor casually walked to the VIP room that had been reserved for a long time. In front of the rooms stood two men in black, each a Tier 6 fighter.
Yet, these two men didn't react when the female doctor entered the room, as though they didn't see her.
When she entered the room, she took out a candy and put it in her mouth, which wasn't the standard of a doctor. With just a glance, she checked all the necessary information she could find from the machine and the labels all around the bed.
"Nothing abnormal. That's good," she muttered before taking her leave again. "See you later, boy."
The two men remained unchanged, even though she abruptly came out.
She casually walked outside the building without anyone stopping her. On her ear, there was a device stuck on it, getting covered by her hair.
"You can't keep doing this, you know? If not for me hacking into the security system of that hospital, you would be found out," a man's voice echoed from it.
"Isn't it fine? I have you, darling." With a smug look on her face, she added, "Besides, can't I just go there right now? It's been a very long time. I miss him, I miss him, I miss him, I miss him."
"Do you think you're the only one missing him? However, no. We have agreed that we will wait until he reaches Tier 5. A promise is something that shouldn't be broken."
"Eh…" She pouted. "Fine. But it's been a few months since he has gone down. Is he alright? I have heard some pretty interesting rumors, you know?"
"Hoh? Such as?"
"There is a rumor that our son has a pet. That pet is actually a beast, Dire Wolf."
"A pet?" The man fell silent for a moment.
"Intriguing, isn't it? Should I check the rumor to see whether it's true or not?"
"No. Pet is pet, no entry is no entry." The man gritted his teeth. "My answer will remain the same no matter how many times you ask or how you ask it. There are only two things that can be held by a man. Everyone knows the first one, while the other is his words.
"If my words can't be held, I will become a worse person than a gigolo, so no."
"Hmph. Fine. I will wait just a bit longer. I don't think he is that far from reaching Tier 5."
"That's true. However, a lot of influences have been restless recently."
She snorted. "They just can't find him. As expected of my son, he knows how to hide. Those people just want to possess him so that they will gain us as well.
"Although I don't really like that he chooses to remain here, I don't plan to argue with him about this decision. He's not a person who makes a big decision without putting any thought into it, after all."
"Yeah. We have one problem, though. There are three top powerhouses searching for him. They are Berserker, Bald, and Fish."
"…" She halted her step for a moment as if she was stunned to hear all those names.
"Sir Ezekiel seems to be stopping the Sniper, while Father is taking care of the Spear Saint and the Prophet."
She couldn't help but squint her eyes. "We can probably ignore Bald and Fish for the time being, since they're not Tier 8, but their backers are rather annoying.
"However, Berserker… Father's ultimate rival, huh? He kept challenging Father even though Father had beaten him multiple times. Did he want to make his current children defeat our little darling?"
"Most likely, and the problem is when he loses…"
"We know Berserker is a dirty one… If he dares to touch Clovis, I swear…"
"I'm the same. For the time being, I'm keeping track of them. That little girl, Vina, has done a good job in spreading misinformation. I guess that's what we should expect from the Dark Moon Mercenary."
"Well, they're shady, but at least they're useful." She nodded. "What do you want me to do?"
"Stay quiet over there for a while. I'm afraid that these three are planning to enter the country very soon. The effect of the misinformation has been diminished quite a lot, so they might find him soon."
"Can't Father make a move?"
"You know the Prophet and the Spear Saint…"
"Spear Saint, huh? That Carrick definitely didn't know when to take the loss. He is annoying. But the Prophet is more annoying."
"Yeah. He is much more secretive than the Spear Saint, so Father needs his full attention to distract him. That means he won't be able to stop others from approaching Clovis."
"In that case, do you want me to stay close to him? If they end up finding him, I can make a move."
"Berserker is Tier 9, you won't be able to stop him. Meanwhile, that baldie will definitely come with at least two or three Tier 8s, so there's no way you can stop him with your Tier 7 strength. Fortunately, that man who loves fish isn't really hostile, so just stand by there."
"So, you're telling me not to stop them from taking my dear son away?"
"No. I'm telling you to stay because I'm going out by myself."
"!!!" She raised her eyebrows before sighing. "Fine."
"Fortunately, most competitors have been held back by that president. He's much more competent than Axolonia. And by the time his presidency is over, Clovis should have no problem in reaching Tier 6 or even Tier 7. When that happens, it might be Clovis who will protect us."
"In that case, I will monitor the situation for the time being. Once he reaches Tier 5, I'm going to him even if you stop me."
"Heh. I'm not going to stop you when that happens."
"That's more like it."
