Chapter 2118
---- Chapter 2118 "Eric, what are you doing here?" Jerturned back, his face full of both surprise and
confusion. Eric clenched his jaw and stayed silent. Jersaid bitterly, "I know you resent me. Alll these years, |
failed to realize how deeply you buried the pain from your childhood. Go back now. I'm heading to Basoria to
investigate Hunter's death." Eric's tone was cold. "He's been dead for years. What's left to investigate? | cto
tell you that there's no point in going to Basoria. The Assassin's Guild is one of the strongest sects today.
You going alone will achieve nothing." Jersnorted. "Whether it's useless or not, | have to see for myself. They
killed my son back then. | may be powerless, but I'll at least make sure the Assassin's Guild pays in blood!" Eric
hesitated before asking, "Do you blme, Dad? Last t| ambushed you, | nearly cost you your life." Jerome
looked stunned. "Why would you even ask that? Of course, | don't blyou. | know you silently carried hatred
toward me, but it was my failure not to see it. The fault was mine, not yours." ---- Pain flickered across Eric's face
as he lowered his head.
"| didn't want to do it." Jerome's voice grew gentle. "Of course, | know you didn't. | raised you myself and know
exactly what kind of person you are." Eric shook his head. "No, if you really knew me, you'd understand the
torment I've carried all these years. Forget it. Just go. | only cto tell you to take care of yourself." Jerome's
heart was moved. "So, Eric... you forgive me?" Eric turned away without answering directly. "I'm leaving
Sunstrand too. That's all." Jerome's heart lifted with relief as he nodded again and again. " Good. Go with Andrew
to Gabo Creek.
| believe he'll soon return to Chetvine, his hometown. When that tcomes, you can follow him into a wider
world. Eric, don't think I'm nagging, but listen carefully. Stay by Andrew's side. "He's a once-in-a-century genius,
unmatched in talent. Even early on, his wisdom and skill in martial arts leftin awe. And now we know he's
Reginald's son, the royal heir of the Lloyd family. "Men like him appear only once in a century, maybe even a few
centuries. If you can be his friend, his brother, and stand with him, then that's your fortune. It's a chance heaven
itself has given you.

I'll rest easy knowing you're with him." ---- Eric muttered reluctantly, "Fine, | get it. I'm leaving now. Just... be
careful in Basoria." Jerblinked in surprise. He never expected his aloof adopted son to express concern for
him. In the past, Eric never would have said such words, especially after his betrayal. 'lt seems following Andrew
has changed you a lot... Perhaps in my later years, I've finally found a true leader worth following. Once | return
from Basoria, I'll devote myself to Andrew and help him build his legacy.
That will be my way of repaying his
kindness, Jerthought with a
smile, his heart full of emotion and
joy. With that resolution, he set off on

He teased, "So, what did you and Mr.
Thornton talk about? You two didn't
hug and cry, did you?" Eric snorted.
"You're insane." Andrew patted his
shoulder. “Insane or not, just tell me
straight." Eric's face flushed. "Can
you stop being so annoying?" Andrew
could tell by his reaction that he and
Jerhad reconciled. "Alright, let's
