Chapter 1024 - Masked Man (1/2)

Translator: CKtalon

After the person came out of the grave, he looked no different from a living person. With Truth Listener’s ability, it was impossible to tell if he was human.

Crack!

The tombstone shattered. The mask embedded in the tombstone floated up and floated in front of the man.

The man glanced at the mask and muttered to himself, “Is it finally starting again?”

With that said, he picked up the mask and slowly placed it on his face. The strange mask stuck to his face as though it had fused with it.

It didn’t look like he was wearing a mask. Instead, it looked like the mask had grown on his face. It was an extremely strange feeling.

After the man put on the mask, Zhou Wen immediately felt his body regain its freedom. It was the same for Lance and the others.

“I’ll ask, and you answer. Now, you can speak. The rules here won’t kill you because you speak,” the masked man said calmly.

“Who… Who are you?” Lance stared at the masked man and asked.

Although he couldn’t move previously, he clearly had the ability to observe the masked man’s face. He was more puzzled than anyone else why the masked man’s appearance was identical to his.

The masked man didn’t answer his question and instead asked, “Are you a descendant of Frod?”

“That’s right. We are all Frod’s descendants. Who are you, Sir?” Gaiman asked the masked man.

“None of you are. Only he is.” The masked man slowly raised his hand and pointed at Lance with his index finger.

“Sir, what do you mean?” Lance stared intently at the masked man and asked.

“Frod has an agreement with me. He will give me his descendant, and you are his descendant,” the masked man said.

Although his words were odd, Zhou Wen believed them a little. This was because Lance shouldn’t have been part of this operation.

Lance had never contracted a Mythical Companion Beast before, and he had just been injured. Furthermore, with his special identity, he shouldn’t have come here to take the risk.

However, Frod had made Lance participate in this operation. For this, he had specially contracted a Mythical Companion Beast for him.

Zhou Wen originally imagined that it was because Frod wanted to train Lance and give him more experience that he was allowed to carry out this mission.

From the looks of it, it wasn’t that simple. Perhaps the masked man’s words were true.
