Chapter 823 Asking You To Help Me (1/2)
”Think of it this way. Barnes the Holy had the chance to kill the Inner Fiend at that time. But because of my mutation, he failed. His hatred for me is even stronger than the Inner Fiend's. He absolutely wants to kill me,” the monkey said. He smiled bitterly.
Darren pondered on this for a while before realizing that the monkey was correct.
Barnes the Holy had turned into a madman. With his fiendish nature unchecked, Barnes would not let the mutated monkey go.
”We'll figure it out after I get you out,” Darren reassured.
The monkey closed his eyes and nodded in silence.
Darren then went to Augustine's place.
”Come here, Darren, let's have some drink together.” Augustine had the alcohol prepared already as he waited for Darren.
Unable to resist the temptation of delicious alcohol, Darren drank several bowls in a row.
”Darren, I have to show you something funny after this,” Augustine said mysteriously.
A graceful figure suddenly sprung out, grabbing Augustine's ear.
”Brother, you're going to that place again? If you dare go there, I will tell Aunt Caroline,” Naomi said angrily.
”Ouch! Stop pinching my ear, my sister. I'll be with Darren, and he's strong. There's nothing to be afraid of.” Augustine cried out in pain, struggling to slip out of his sister's grasp.
”No. Aunt Caroline has already warned us not to mess with anyone there. We don't want to get in trouble, so no one is allowed to go there,” she insisted.
”All right, all right. I won't go.” Augustine shrugged her off.
Naomi was seemingly appeased by this. ”Good.”
Darren shook his head and picked up another bowl of alcohol. ”Come on, let's stop arguing and drink instead.”
Feeling quite down, Augustine drank ten bowls in a row.
Naomi noticed this immediately. ”Well, it seems that you are not convinced. I'll tell Aunt Caroline right away.”
”Please don't, Naomi. You're totally right. I promise I won't go,” Augustine pleaded.
”You better keep your promise then,” Naomi replied.
Hot air suddenly came blowing inside the cottage. It brought with it a fiery red figure who turned out to be Caroline.
”What are you two arguing about? Naomi, stop bullying your brother,” she said.
