    Chapter 953 Gerald and Valery


    Solein Kingdom of Ries City!


    As the night crept in, a group of eight people in a posh hotel room in Ries City were anything but tired;


    their excitement was palpable.


    Carolyn could not help but express her envy as she gazed at Valery and eximed, “Wow, you’re so


    pretty,


    Valery.”


    At that moment, Valery was dressed in a pure white wedding gown.


    The wedding gown was personally designed by Carolyn and had some differencespared to the


    typical Earth wedding gown.


    At that moment, Valery looked like a true fairy in that wedding gown.


    Gerald could not help but acknowledge this world’s manufacturing skills and craftsmanship.


    Had they been on Earth, it would have been nearly impossible to make the wedding gown without a


    month’s


    worth of time.


    However, after Carolyn found the clothes manufacturer, they were able to produce not one but two


    dresses in a single afternoon, and they were made to match the blueprint perfectly.


    They had created one set of pure white wedding dresses and another set of clothes adorned with many


    gems. However, in this world, gems were not as valuable as on Earth.


    Gerald looked at the white cloth pieces on the table and asked, “What are these?”


    Carolyn exined, “These are what you’ll use for your wedding photoshoot. You’ll spread your wings


    and then use this to cover them, creating an angelic image. I checked and found a ce called Ether


    Lake near Ries City, in the midst of the mountains and forest, with stunning scenery. The pictures taken


    there look absolutely beautiful. That ce is only the first location for our photoshoot. We still have a


    few other ces to visit, and we’ll be shooting all day tomorrow. We might not be able to finish


    everything on time. Our final stop will be Mount Starry. Rumor has it that the starry sky there is the


    most breathtaking in the entire


    Havotune.”


    “I can’t believe there are so many sights in this little Ries City.” Triston remarked. straightening his


    groomsman attire in front of the mirror before nodding in approval.


    “They’re not exactly tourist spots; they’re all in dangerous areas, but I think we’ll manage,” Carolyn said


    with a


    smile.


    In the past few days, Carolyn had been gathering information on the best ces near Ries City for


    taking


    wedding photos for Gerald and the others. She was the primary organizer for the wedding photo shoot.


    “Did they say anything when you went to have the clothes made?” Jacob asked.


    Their jaws almost dropped, okay? They had never heard of such clothes before.” Carolyn boasted.


    Carolyn was the chief nner, and in addition to that, she also served as a bridesmaid alongside


    another


    bridesmaid named Rylee.


    The roles of the groomsmen were assigned to Triston and Jacob.


    Carolyn had intended to include Jacob and Rylee in the photo shoot, but Jacob turned down the offer


    temporarily as he wished to have his picture taken when he returned to Earth.


    They stayed upte discussing and only went back to their rooms to rest when they were done.

    After finishing his nighttime routine, Gerald was ready to go to sleep when someone knocked on his


    door. He opened it to find Valery standing there at the doorway.


    Gerald looked surprised as he asked, “You’re still up?”


    Valery shook her head and admitted, “I’m feeling a bit nervous, so I can’t sleep. It’s because I haven’t


    done this before, unlike you.”


    “I mean, I have no idea what to do!” eximed Gerald, flustered. “I’mpletely inexperienced. The


    thing with Irene doesn’t count!”


    Valery chuckled when she saw Gerald’s reaction and walked into his room, sitting on the bed. She


    looked up at him and said, “We’re getting married.”


    Upon hearing this, Gerald’s heart began to beat rapidly for some reason, even though he had been


    married


    before to Irene!


    Although Gerald had been married before to Irene, it did not really feel like a marriage to him. He was


    numb to the whole experience, but this time with Valery, he knew it was different. He believed they


    would walk down the path of life together forever.


    “Are you scared?” Valery raised her head and looked at Gerald with a smile.


    Gerald shook his head and asked Valery, “What about you? Are you scared?”


    Valery rose to her feet and walked toward the hotel balcony, gazing at Gerald.


    The hotel was grand in size, and their room on the 100th floor provided a stunning view, as if they could


    easily reach out and grab the stars.


    Valery turned to face Gerald. “I am scared. I don’t know how long we’ll be alive or if we’ll have children,


    and even if we do, I worry we won’t be around to see them grow up. I’m afraid they’ll end up like me,


    losing their parents when they’re young. We are the Watchman, walking the line between life and


    death. One wrong step.


    and we would pay with our lives. We have a lot on our shoulders. Since we left Earth, we have been


    carrying


    the world with us. Sometimes I get tired, and sometimes I feel tired for both of us.”


    Before she could finish, Gerald reached out and took her hand, looking at Valery with a solemn


    expression. “Valery, I promise to protect you, to protect the Earth. And if we have a child, we’ll make


    sure that they grow up healthy.” He dered.


    Gerald then muttered, “I will get stronger, so strong that nobody can ever harm you, even stronger than


    the dirty old man we met yesterday.”


    “And…” Gerald gazed at Abbie intently. “As long as you’re with me, I’m not afraid of anything, not even


    death!”


    Valery was surprised, and her heart fluttered. She instinctively rose on her toes and kissed Gerald from


    the balcony to the bed! Gerald’s breathing became more and more rapid.


    After a while.


    “Let’s not go to the final base,” a blushing Valery said. “I want to save it for our wedding night; is that


    okay?”


    “I…” Gerald was rendered speechless as he felt terrible.


    The night passed quietly and uneventfully.


    At daybreak the next morning, Gerald and the others donned their suits and took a hover car out.


    They split into two teams. Gerald and the others went to take wedding photos, while Hector transported


    the purchased items to the spacecraft ahead of time.


    They purchased several hover cars and a lot of misceneous items.


    The whole filming process went smoothly, using some equipment from this world that captured crystal-


    clear


    images.


    While Gerald and the others were busy with the shoot, things were unfolding at the conference hall of


    the


    Guerrero family in the City of Phoenix.


    It had been three days, but they had not made any progress.


    They could not find any clues whatsoever, as Gerald and the others had left the City of Phoenix.


    The Herman family had yet to find a single person, as if they had vanished into thin air.


    As the meeting took ce in the conference room of the Guerrero family, all Four Ancient Families and


    all the me Decayers gathered there, except for those who had to leave for urgent reasons.


    The conference room is usually packed during such meetings involving the Four Ancient Families.


    However,


    today it feels empty.


    The Four Ancient Families had suffered devastating losses in the past few months.


    Starting with Rafael, they have lost thirteen me Decayers so far, including elevenmon me


    Decayers


    and two supreme me Decayers. The number of me Decayers below that could not be estimated


    was


    even higher.


    The sight of the mostly empty meeting room made Sauven grind his teeth in anger.


    As his gaze fell on the three me Decayers of the Quintin family, Sauven’s expression became


    somewhat


    Nevertheless, the Quintin family persisted as part of the Four Ancient Families without being


    disentangled or


    taken over by the other three.


    That deviated somewhat from Gerald’s thinking.


    Sauven sighed and said, “In this meeting, we will discuss two things. Firstly, the attacker in the recent


    incident was unknown, and there’s a high possibility that it was done by the Pierce family of Rime City,”


    Nathanial mmed his hand down and said, “The Pierce family from Rime City has gone too far!”


    Sauven shook his head and said, “No matter what, we still can’t match them at the moment. We have


    to bear


    with it for now.”


    Sauven sighed and said, “The losses we’ve suffered over the past few months have been devastating.


    Our four families are gathered here today with the intention of leaving this and the war behind by


    traveling to the Havotune above. We had set a target of having 100 me Decayers, but we have


    already lost nearly half of them in thest few months. Our main purpose in gathering here is to discuss


    a n to escape the ongoing conflict on this by migrating to the satellite. However, we haven’t


    received any news or updates regarding the battle on that. Our reinforcements, whom we sent,


    have vanished into thin air. I suspect that the world we intended to migrate to might be undergoing


    significant changes, and this makes our situation more challenging.”


    Everyone went quiet as they heard what Sauven had exined.


    Sauven continued, “In order to obtain the Bone of Eternity and continue our ascent, we must conquer


    that. And so, I have an announcement to make.”


    “Nathanial, I need your attention,” said Sauven with determination. “I’m entrusting you with the


    leadership of the Lightchaser and ten Purple Pioneers. Can you assure me of sess?”


    “I will return within six months with the Bone of Eternity and plenty of beautiful women from that world


    for us to rise again,” said Nathanial as he stood up, full of pride. “It’s just a primitive, and those


    fools are a


    bunch of freeloaders.”
