Chapter 559 A new start [1]

When Durden returned, he had a thoughtful look on his face, which surprised Adam and Jasmine.

"What are you thinking about, big brother? Also, what was that cry?" Adam couldn't hold back his curiosity.

Hearing his voice, Durned came to his senses and smiled, "Nothing. That guy had momentarily woken up and cried out due to pain before fainting again. Go on, continue condensing your mana."

Saying this, he sat down, closed his eyes, and started treating his injuries.

Adam looked at him and grumbled, "You didn't tell me what you were thinking about so deeply."

Seeing this, Jasmine revealed a faint smile, "If it's something we should know, senior brother will tell us. Since he didn't, we don't need to know." Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

Seeing Max's face turning paler bit by bit, Emily became increasingly anxious. But she couldn't do anything to make him feel better, and this made her feel helpless and useless. After a while, she could no longer restrain her emotions and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Please be alright, please." She muttered as pearl-like tears slid down her cheeks.

Meanwhile, Max, whose all senses to the outside world were cut off, was in a daze. He couldn't believe he 'lost' the system just like that. 'But why am I not feeling sad about it?' He wondered. Strangely, he wasn't feeling sad about losing the system. Instead, he felt as though some kind of restraints had lifted, making him feel lighter.

"Are they still here?" He asked about Durden's group.

Hearing this, Emily's expression turned uncertain as she slowly nodded, "Yeah. They are still here. Although that little guy and girl urged him to leave and not waste time waiting for you to wake up, Durden didn't leave. He would come here to check up on you a few times daily. I... don't know what he is planning."

"From what you told me about him, I doubt that he would have any ill intentions towards any of us. So, don't worry." Max smiled, not wanting her to worry about it anymore.

Step! Step!

Just then, they heard the sound of footsteps. When they turned to look, they saw Ella and Ellie coming. Ella had an anxious look on her face while Ellie was frowning, and looked a bit annoyed.

As they came closer and saw Max laying on Emily's lap, looking at them, the duo looked relieved before a hint of anger flashed in Ellie's eyes. As for Ella, her face blossomed into a happy smile before she rushed over and sat on her knees beside him.

"Sir Max, you are awake. I-It's great. I... we were very worried."

"Hm. Sorry, I made you worried." Max smiled at her, which made Ella smile in joy. Emily, however, softly snorted at this, but didn't say anything.

Ella then glanced at Elle and beckoned her over. "Ellie, come quick and greet sir Max."

Sighing inwardly, she walked over and slightly bowed her head at him. "Hello, sir Max. It's good you woke up. Everyone was worried about you."

Max could see she didn't have any good feelings toward him and also knew why. So, when he heard her, he asked with an amused smile on his face, "Were you also worried?"
