Chapter 88: Invade (1/2)

Before all those events with Michu's savior happened, Michu approached Zerze.

Both of them stared into each other in silence.

Since many things had happened between them in a short time, this silence was natural and understandable.

But just for them.

Many onlookers giggled and cheered Lil Monke who looked like someone who would want to challenge Zerze. After his words before the battle with Kaiser, such an impression of Michu was fine and on the spot too.

He wanted to try his skills against Zerze, but he also wanted to be his friend.

Zerze was the first one to break this silence, surprisingly, ”A beer has different tastes, depending on the company.”

”Oh... I see...” Michu awkwardly scratched his cheek.

”It tasted good with your company,” Zerze nodded and closed his eyes, but a smile was nowhere to be seen on his face.

His words made Michu smile, though. ”I know this is a game... But it means much more to both of us... That's why... I will stop you from stealing Venomous' skill... And afterward, we will become friends again!”

”That is highly unlikely... Because if I fall once, I will continue to stand up until I am utterly alone,” Zerze's reply stunned Michu.

The monke could understand his words, however. He looked down with many thoughts coursing through his mind, then raised his eyes, ”I hope everything will turn out well! You seem like a good guy!”

Michu turned heels and distanced himself from Zerze.

However, the cold voice stopped him just for a little more talk, ”Do you reach out to everyone like that?”

”No... You seemed genuinely lonely...” Michu replied.

”What if I had no family left in this world?” Zerze asked.

”That's...” It made it hard for Michu to answer as he didn't know the exact context behind those words.

Zerze helped him here, ”Let's say that I got disappointed and disappointed by them... What would you do if your family continued to hurt and disappoint you?”

This forced Michu to think for a good while.

But as he also took a good step into adult life and earned his first income, Michu knew the problems laying behind this kind of life. People were fated to change and he was also doing his best to change for the better.

This was a good change, but if his class were to suddenly disappear, Michu wouldn't be able to deal with it properly. Even he found no problem imagining his fear and dismay. At this point, his family would've helped him.

However, was his family exempt from that? Of course not!

”If someone from my family got lost in their life and stepped on a wrong path, I would do my best to help them. If they disappointed me, then I would endure. I would be able to endure because I know that deep inside them we are all good people who love each other.” Michu replied.

”How long would you endure for?”

”Until my heart wouldn't be able to go on,” Michu seriously answered.
