Aldrian only smiled in response to Gerald’s question. This only made Gerald even more confused, yet he did not need to ask further. Aldrian’s purpose was indeed sothing inside that mountain with that kind of response.
However, how was that possible?
How could Aldrian know that there was sothing within the mountain when this place was supposed to be undiscoverable by anyone until he had been stranded here?
If they pushed the thought further, another question erged.
How could Aldrian even reach this place in the first place?
Aldrian’s answer made Gerald want to pull his hair. What did he an by just passing through?
If it were that easy to reach this place, then it would not be known as the most mysterious location in the Blue Pearl World.
If it truly were easy, Gerald would not have had to rely on sheer luck to reach this place, nor would he still be unable to leave it.
He had tried repeatedly to leave this place in the past. He had created a small ship using wood from the forest and attempted to sail away.
Yet every ti he entered the region of darkness, where overcast clouds covered the sea, his ship would be forced back toward the island, even though he continued sailing forward. It was as if he had entered so kind of illusion. No matter how many tis he tried, the result was always the sa.
This made him worry.
He wondered whether he would be trapped here until the day he died. That was why, when he sensed movent in the distance and saw another human for the first ti, he was deeply shocked.
Judging by Aldrian’s good condition, Gerald did not believe that Aldrian had entered this space the sa way he had. He must have used proper ans. That ant he knew how to deal with all those dangerous natural phenona.
But how was that possible when Aldrian was only at the middle pseudo-immortal establishnt stage?
The only explanation Gerald could think of was that Aldrian knew this place and understood its secrets.
Once again, the sa question surfaced in his mind.
How was that possible?
Who was this person, really?
"Don’t think too much, Sir Gerald. It would not be good for you to know too much. The most important thing is that you are safe here, and luckily, I t you here. Klein would be very happy to see his father again," Aldrian said, which made Gerald widen his eyes.
"Klein?! Ah, yes, that’s right. How is he?! Is he alright? How is the war? Before I was trapped here, I heard that the situation was not very promising on the frontline," he asked hurriedly.
Seeing Gerald’s reaction, Aldrian thought that his guess was correct. Gerald was indeed Klein’s father.
"He is fine. In fact, he is with . He guided toward this sea region, but he stayed in a safe place, so don’t worry," Aldrian said.
Hearing that, Gerald was stunned.
Klein was with Aldrian? He had followed him into this dangerous sea? He could not help but worry about his son.
"As for the war, it is already over. The Blue Pearl World won, and the devils are no longer in this world," Aldrian continued.
Once again, Gerald was shocked, but then he released a sigh of relief.
"Is that so? Thank heavens. The last ti I heard, the situation was really bad, and there were already many people who thought about escaping to other worlds."
"Yes, the situation was indeed bad. Luckily, the alliance forces were able to turn things around and win the war, and life has started to return to normal," Aldrian said.
Gerald nodded in understanding. There was a mont of silence as Aldrian then glanced at Gerald’s arms and legs.
"Do you want to recover your body’s condition to how it used to be? Complete and healthy?"
Gerald was stunned. His eyes glimred, but he released a slow breath.
"Can you heal and restore my body’s condition?" he asked.
Of course, he wanted his body to return to how it used to be. He wanted to move freely and touch things with both of his hands.
At this mont, even walking felt stiff and weak because of the aftereffects of passing through chaotic space. Even when he tried to circulate his energy to support so of his activities on the island, he felt slight pain.
The mont he used a movent technique for the first ti after reaching this place was when Aldrian had approached his direction. He felt more pain and could not properly control his movent. When he tried to attack Aldrian, another wave of pain followed.
He truly felt tornted, as he could not do anything properly without feeling discomfort during these past three years.
Aldrian nodded in response to Gerald’s question, which made him sigh.
"I see. If you could restore to my past healthy state, I would truly appreciate it. But I am afraid I cannot repay you, as I have nothing. Even so, do you still want to heal ?"
"You don’t have to worry about that. Just consider it my way of thanking your son for guiding to the Divine Wrath Sea. He is already waiting for you. He is truly brave to dare face the Divine Wrath Sea’s reputation and voluntarily guide my group. It would be better for him to see you in much better condition than now," Aldrian replied.
"I can see my son again? So you can bring out of here?" Gerald could not help but ask in a trembling voice.
Aldrian nodded with a smile. "Of course. Why wouldn’t I? I was able to enter this place, so naturally I can leave it and bring you with as well. You can finally rejoice, Sir Gerald."
Hearing that he could et his son again, relief washed over him, and he felt like crying. His eyes watered, and he unconsciously dropped to his knees and kowtowed to Aldrian.
"Thank you, truly thank you," he said. "And I am sorry for trying to attack you. I did not know your intentions and acted in panic."
All this ti, he had been confused about how he could ever return to the outside world. Although he was passionate about the Divine Wrath Sea, he was still a human with a family.
When he saw signs coming from the direction of the Divine Wrath Sea, he felt both surprised and ecstatic, as there was sothing new for him to observe and research. He steeled himself and ventured much deeper into the Divine Wrath Sea than he ever had before.
But his recklessness had almost taken his life, and only through luck was he able to reach deep inside the Divine Wrath Sea.
He felt ecstatic when he realized that he was stranded within the Divine Wrath Sea region and had entered an undiscoverable place. It was like a dream co true for him, entering a region that he had spent much of his life researching and trying to unravel its mysteries.
However, after observing the entire island and learning almost everything about it, the fact that he could not return gave him a sense of loss and confusion. He had family outside, and the war was still ongoing. With the situation of the war being far from optimistic, what if they truly lost? What would happen to his family?
He was trapped in the place he had most wanted to visit, yet his mind could not focus, as his family was still out there and a war was raging. He could do nothing, and he might remain trapped here in loneliness until his final day.
The only thing that beca his hope was the strange doors inside the mountain. He wondered whether whatever lay behind them could take him out of this place.
But those doors gave no reaction, no matter what thods he tried to open them. There were no hints on how to open them, which frustrated him deeply. That might have been the last mystery he had yet to solve in this place.
Now that Aldrian had appeared and claid that he could bring him out, Gerald felt relieved and deeply moved.
"Alright, alright, stop kowtowing. I understand your reason for attacking , so I don’t mind. Let heal you first before you show your happiness," Aldrian said.
Gerald straightened his body, and Aldrian finally released his energy. First, he needed to erase any remnants of chaotic space within Gerald’s body. This was sothing that would be tricky for others, but for Aldrian, it was much easier due to his mastery over energy and the existence of his golden energy, which could "subdue" the remnants of chaotic space.
He injected his golden energy and cleaned away all traces of chaotic space’s energy. It gave Gerald a warm sensation for the first ti in three years. At that mont, he truly wanted to sleep from how comfortable he felt.
He could sense all of his ridians opening, and his energy flowed smoothly again as the remnants of chaotic space’s energy disappeared.
The scabs on his wounds slowly peeled off and fell from his skin. His ugly scars vanished at a rapid pace, revealing healthy skin beneath.
After a few monts, Aldrian was finally done dealing with the wounds across Gerald’s body and all remaining traces of chaotic space’s energy.
Next ca the reshaping of Gerald’s arm.
Combined with his life laws, movent appeared at the place where the arm had once been.
Gerald felt a slight stinging sensation, but he endured it as his arm began to regrow. It happened quite quickly and took no longer than a minute.
After Aldrian finished, he retracted his energy and smiled.
"How is it?"
