Chapter 1222


    Chapter 1222 Surreal


    Skyler stepped forward. Furrowing his brows, he asked, "Didn''t you say Matt is here? So, where is he?"


    "He is both far away and right in front of you."


    Veronica raised an eyebrow, gesturing for Skyler to look at the man behind him. With that, Skyler and


    Shirley turned around. Their gazes instantlynded on a tan-skinned man with an average look and a


    mole on his face, but they didn''t notice anything unusual.


    "What''s wrong? You guys don''t recognize me now?"


    With his hands in the pockets of his loose-fitting pants, Matthew raised an eyebrow slightly and had a


    faint smile on his face.


    "Matt?"


    "P-President Kings?"


    In addition to his changed appearance, since Matthew had been speaking with a fake voice and


    deliberately disguised himself after joining the hidden n, the two never suspected anything.


    But now that he spoke with his original voice, they immediately recognized his identity.


    "Oh my God! President Kings, so you are indeed alive?! I still didn''t believe Skyler when he told me


    about it."


    Finding the situation unbelievable, Shirley opened her mouth wide in astonishment.


    After a moment of daze, she walked up to Matthew and reached out to pinch his arm. "It actually is a


    live body. President Kings, is it truly you?"


    Because the image of Matthew''s funeral was vivid in her mind, everything felt like a dream now that


    she saw him appear before her.


    No, wait. Too surreal should best describe how Shirley felt at the moment.


    "No doubt about it." Matthew smiled lightly.


    "Tsk, tsk—Matt, it''s fine if you want to look ugly, but I can''t believe you''re going all out with this


    hideousness. If I were Roni, I would have had nightmares from looking at your iparably ugly face."


    Skyler couldn''t help but tease him.


    Upon hearing that, Matthew kicked him in the leg. "Get lost."


    The four exchanged a smile, and shortly after, their voices echoed in the VIP lounge.


    After taking their seats, Matthew served them tea while Shirley held Veronica''s hand. As if she had


    discovered a new world, she expressed in awe. "Ron, you are simply amazing. I have no idea you''re


    actually the leader of the hidden n! Also, do you know that I feel like I have traveled through time


    starting the moment I entered the hidden n? Everything here feels like a dream to me. After being so


    used to skyscrapers, the architectural structures of these buildings truly resemble ancient times. Oh,


    and another thing—when did you learn you are the leader of the hidden n? So, you were aware that


    President Kings was alive the whole time, weren''t you?"


    At this moment, Shirley had countless questions in her mind.


    She had been holding Veronica''s hand and constantly bombarded her with questions since they


    entered the room.


    Veronica patiently exined the situation to her, and only then did Shirley grasp a little.


    Even so, she still found it slightly difficult to adapt as she looked at Matthew dressed in the hidden


    n''s traditional attire.


    "You two just arrived today?" Veronica picked up a cup of the scented tea in front of her and took a sip.


    Acting casual, she added, "How many days did it take you to get here?"


    "It took us ten days from Castron to here." Skyler carefully calcted the time and gave Veronica an


    exact answer.


    Upon hearing his reply, she clenched the cup, slightly lifted her eyelids, and looked at Matthew. "Master


    Crayson lied to me."


    In truth, Veronica had asked Crayson before why she had to rush to the hidden n when the


    ascension ceremony for the leader of the hidden n was still two months away. At that time, he


    answered that she wouldn''t be able to get into the hidden n if she was a few dayste.


    Yet, Skyler and the others still managed to enter the hidden n smoothly.


    "Master Crayson has a strong desire for control. He would worry that you might change your mind even


    if you spent just one more day with Ada and n in Bloomstead, and asking you toe early was


    also his wish to let you adapt to the hidden n''s life. I suppose he really hopes that you can adapt to


    life here and stay."

    Indeed, to persuade a person to stay, one must have advantages that could convince them, and the


    hidden n''s picturesque scenery and simple folk customs were considered its most remarkable


    attractions.
