Chapter 115 - 108 (2/2)
The stunned Demerus almost cursed infront of the naughty nine-year old child as he reprimanded him which only the young Zero listened to it in a passing as the words from his grandfather went in from his other ear and went out on the other.
Such a good child!
Demerus sighed while giving up his reprimands. Looking at the poor kid as he turned stern while talking to the latter.
”Zero, don't forget what I had taught you! You will be turning ten this year and the Circus will be at your hands by that time. So be attentive!”
Immediately, the young Zero seriously nodded as the goofy expression was replaced with his most stern face. He had known the heavy responsibilities of handling the said organization.
”Yes, grandfather! I will uphold what you taught me!”
”Yes. I will, grandfather!” The white fringed haired young man whispered as he awaken from his very deep sleep.
He massaged his forehead as he had an headache.
Suddenly, a monotone piercing voice echoed in the black space as the system welcomed the host back.
[Welcome back, host.]
The dull greeting made Zero's head to ache more. He had spent his time of passing the test that the system prepared as a punishment. He had no idea how many days he was there but he knew that he had spent countless of days there from observing his stiff body as if he had gone on leave for years from his soul.
[Host, be careful.]
The sudden warning of the broken system was too late as the white fringed haired young man suffered a free fall from the five meter height in suspending midair.
Zero rubbed his buŧŧ as he glared at the glowing light which he realized that it was the nasty black-hearted system.
