Chapter 1730 Daemonic Mount
Juan is indeed attracted to treasure, seeing as he’s refusing to give up on treasure-hunting. Evan stared intently at the boy with a serious expression. “The antidote for Faye’s poison is on Daemonic Mount, and so is the… treasure.”
“Daemonic Mount? What kind of place is that, Daddy?”
“You can look it up yourself,” Even curtly reply.
Juan grew silent upon hearing that. This Daemonic Mount sounds quite mysterious. Not only does it contain treasure but also the antidote. If I go there, I can obtain both those things. Wouldn’t that be killing two birds with one stone?
Evan could immediately tell from Juan’s twinkling eyes that the boy was tempted to go there.
As expected, Juan said just that. “Daddy, I’m willing to go there and find the antidote for Faye.”
I bet you’re willing to go there not only for the antidote but for the treasure as well. Seeing as you keep inquiring and longing for it, I should let you go and experience it for yourself so that you can give up on it soon.
“Do you really wish to go?”
Juan nodded earnestly. “Yes, I do. You know very well that Kyle can handle all the company matters, so I’m not needed there.”
As soon as those words left his lips, the boy glanced at his surroundings before drawing closer to Evan. “I seriously think that I’ll be of better use treasure-hunting than staying at the company. Finding the treasure would be a contribution to society. Now that’s what a true hero should be doing.”
Now, this brat even wants to become a hero? I must say, having the courage to speak out about such a heroic dream is commendable! No matter what, I should show my support as his daddy.
“All right, Juan. I’ll support you in pursuing your great ambition! Tomorrow, I’ll get Draven and the Hidden Masters to go with you.”
Is it really necessary to let them follow me? I can do it on my own!
“If you have faith in me, Daddy, let me go alone. I’m willing to go there and bring back the antidote by myself.”
Evan’s expression darkened when he heard Juan’s words. Daemonic Mount is a dangerous place, and yet, he’s still so enthusiastic about going there. I’m worried that with his arrogance, he’ll let his guard down. Nicole was right to worry about him.
“You wish to go on your own?”
“Yes. I wish to give it a try.”
“You know nothing about Daemonic Mount at the moment, so you shouldn’t be impulsive. Although your courage is commendable, relying blindly on confidence without any strategy will cause you to act rashly. I’ve made my decision. Draven and the others will accompany you on this trip.”
Juan mulled over his words momentarily before replying, “All right. I’ll do as you say and follow your advice.”
“Good!”
With that said, Evan took a look at the time and noticed that it was almost dinnertime. He was sure that Nicole was late because she was busy looking up a cure for the poison.
He drummed his fingers on the table several times before calling her on the phone.
“Hello?” A voice that sounded exhausted came from the other end.
Evan paused for a moment before speaking, “It’s almost dinnertime, Nicole. Come home!”
“Have dinner with the kids, Evan. I’m not coming back tonight.”
Does she intend to stay up the entire night to find the cure?
“There’s no need to continue searching. Come back quickly and pack your stuff after dinner. Tomorrow, we’ll follow Juan and the others to Daemonic Mount.”
Nicole was stunned by his reply. “You told Juan about it, Evan?”
“Juan volunteered to go there. Since I’m worried about him going alone, let’s go together.”
Hearing this, Nicole let out a sigh.
The information we found this afternoon all had to do with Daemonic Mount. I was hoping to find other methods of cure!
