Chapter 74 Why Did It Become Like That?
"Do you want some ice cream?"
To Nathan's question, Irish cheerfully replied, "Of course, I do! Who would refuse a cold delicious ice cream, right?"
Nathan smiled, placed the ice cream on the seat and said, "You're right, refusing ice cream is just wrong."
He took a seat and handed a plastic spoon that he bought for the ice cream to Irish.
After that, the two ate the ice cream with relish as they talked about some trivial things.
They also got to know each other more after this conversation and undeniably became closer.
A while later, Irish looked at the time on her watch and a surprise look appeared on her face.
"Oh! It's already late!" she got up from her seat saying, "I need to go back now. I had a wonderful time because of you, Nathan. Thanks for the ice cream, bye bye!"
An understanding look appeared on Nathan's face, he said, "I also had a great time. Take care, bye!"
Irish rode in her car and soon left.
Alone, Nathan sat there for a while doing nothing.
Staring mindlessly, he thought about the feelings that he felt before and smiled.
"I never thought that I would still feel this emotion after what happened in my last life." He melancholy said,
Some memories hidden deep within his mind seem to flash before him.
The betrayal that he experienced, the trust that they broke, the anger of suffering.
A sorrowful look appeared on Nathan's face.
He hurriedly shook his head and fixed his emotions.
Nathan stood up, left the park and walked to his car.
He decided to go back home and relax until the system is done with the upgrade.
The car soon disappeared from sight.
What he did not notice was that, on the second floor of an abandoned buildings in front of the Marikit Park, a few people were looking at him until he left.
A beautiful woman with cold eyes stares for a while before turning around and sitting on a chair.
She looked at the man following her like a dog and said, "Is that the man that you were talking about?"
The man is none other than the thug, Burnok.
After this cold female beauty ordered him to show him the person he was talking about, he immediately used his men as well as some people from the woman to search for Nathan.
And after a few hours of searching, one of his men successfully found Nathan hanging out in the park.
Once he got the news, he hurriedly told the woman and they immediately departed to take a look.
And now, here they are.
Hearing the cold tone from the woman's voice, Burnok shivered, "Y-yes, when I saw that man before, he was holding a book like that."
He looked at the reaction of the woman, hesitated before continuing, "But, to escape, he threw and I don't where it is now."
The woman closed her eyes and remained silent.
After a while, she opened her eyes and looked at Burnok with a cold look.
She said, "Do you know who that man is?"
Burnok shivered and hurriedly replied, "N-No, I don't know him. I-I just know him after…" he suddenly paused as he looked at the woman.
Seeing him dawdling, the look on the woman's face became colder.
Because of that, Burnok continued, "That, I only know of him after he… he saved you from us!"
He gritted his teeth just to successfully say those words.
Yes, that's right.
The cold woman in front of Burnok is the one they once thought of raping in an alley.
It was the same woman saved by Nathan on that fateful night.
Julia.
But now, the image of a frail woman before has been replaced by a cold and emotionless person.
Hearing Burnok's words, Julia paused for a second and raised her eyebrow.
"So the owner of this body has already has an encounter with that man. Then this will be easier." She murmured,
Because she lowered her voice, Burnok did not hear what she said. If he did, he will just be confused anyway.
Then she looked at Burnok, squinted her eyes and said, "Saved? Tell me what were you about to do to me that time, will you?"
Burnok's eyes contracted after hearing that and was about to run away.
However, he discovered that he was not able to move an inch!
It was as if something insivible has locked him on that spot!
Julia stood up and slowly walked towards him.
"Well, let's talk, shall we~"
Soon, tragic screams eachoed in that building.
…
Nathan arrived at his home.
Natalie seems to be back in her room with Issa.
Inside his room, Nathan dropped his body on the soft mattress.
He sighed, "Hais… now what should I do?"
Looking at the system, only a few hours passed and it was still long before it finished.
Closing his eyes, Nathan thinks for a while before remembering about his space.
"Didn't my space make huge improvements? I should go and check it out. I still haven't seen the other changes that occurred there."
The next second, Nathan appeared inside the space, in front of the Miracle Tree.
*Bam!*
Since he was laying on his bed before going inside the space, he fell down on the ground.
But since he has a high power level, the fall did not hurt him.
Casually getting up as if nothing happened, Nathan looked around.
His eyes then fell into the huge Miracle Tree and said, "Hello~"
But the tree did not respond.
"Hooo~ it seems like it really went into some sort of hibernation, huh." he said,
He observed it for a while after, before he started walking around.
"Hmm, since I planted the Miracle Tree near the house, it should just be near here." He murmured,
Then, a while later, he saw the house a few meters away.
"Oh, there it is."
Walking towards it, Nathan started to frown as he approached the house.
"Why does it look like that now?"
