Chapter 575 Farewell Delta City I/II
Chapter 575 Farewell Delta City I/II
Inside their temporary mansion, Sophia and Katherine sat before Zed.
"So this is goodbye then?" Sophia asked sadly.
"Both yes and no," Zed answered with a smile. "We will meet soon... I promise."
"Really?" Sophia's eyes instantly brightened.
"Yes," Zed nodded while rising to his feet. "I plan to visit the State of Avalon in the future, and I would be relying on you to take care of me."
"You can rest assured of that!" Sophia said with confidence. "I will give you the tour of all the must-see locations and the best restaurants! You would have an amazing time!"
"Thanks!" Zed wrapped his arms around her back to hug her.
"!!" Sophia's heart raced, and blood pumped into her face, turning her cheeks into a darker shade of red.
Katherine suppressed a smile as her daughter blushed. She knew Sophia was both shocked and happy by the unexpected hug.
"You are an incredible friend," Zed said as he left the hug. "I'm glad we met."
"Me as well!" Sophia swiftly turned in another direction to make sure he didn't notice her blushing.
Zed smiled before shifting his eyes to Katherine.
"Lady Katherine, I owed you for what you did..." Zed said while taking out a metallic, triangular box from his storage ring. "And I hope this settles our debt."
Katherine was rather surprised. She had no intention of accepting his payment, but before she could refuse, he spoke.
"It is related to the True Life \u0026 Death Gate," Zed explained. "Something I acquired a long time ago."
"!!!!"
Katherine felt as if a bolt of lightning had slammed her.
True Life \u0026 Death Gate?!
The gate she and her daughter could summon was just the replica of the legendary gate! As for the true gate... the knowledge to summon it was only known to few!
In her family, it was restricted to their present patriarch and their great ancestor!
"It won't help you in summing the true gate..." Zed's words washed over her thoughts like water from hell. "But, it would help you more than the knowledge of the true gate!"
Katherine stared at him.
"You can check it when you are alone... really alone," Zed said while rising back to his feet. "And if I were you, I would never share the knowledge with anyone, especially those related by the bond known as family."
"!!"
Despite her powers, she felt a chill.
Sophia might not understand his meaning, but she did! And that made her heart jolt!
"Take care."
Zed left the hall, leaving behind the dumbstruck mother-daughter pair.
