Chapter 257 Reunion

‘Huh?’

The young servant was surprised a bit before leaving the room quietly after getting her orders.

As for Jayden, he went back to the breakthrough process as the red-coloured energy around him started becoming more and more powerful at a slow and steady pace.

…..

In Phirie City,

“I want to tell you something.”

Leo hesitated a little before looking at Ryan and Julia, saying, “Little Rebel, it’s me, you brother Toby.”

Finally, Leo said the words he wanted to tell Ryan and nervously waited for what kind of response he would get in return.

The mighty Talent Swallowing Hero who destroyed the evil families in every city and even got the nickname of Evil Family Exterminator was nervous in front of a young man and a woman in their early twenties.

If word got spread about this, it would cause a huge shock in the entire world because just the name ‘Talent Swallowing Hero’ would make everyone shiver and have sleepless nights.

As for the name Little Rebel, it is the nickname that Toby used to call Ryan when they were little because Ryan always acts like a rebel in their home.

Of course, it was within limits, and since he was small, Ryan’s actions were a kind of entertainment in their house.

“You must have suffered a lot in the outside world.”

Ryan walked forward and hugged his big brother, and said in a low voice, “We are waiting for you to reveal your identity, big brother.”

‘What?’

Leo was shocked by Ryan’s words as he didn’t expect Ryan to say those words.

“So, you know about me already?”

Leo looked at his brother and Julia with mixed emotions and asked as he looked at the twins peeking from their room.

‘It must be them.’

Soon, Leo realized how Ryan and Julia knew about it and shook his head.

“I have my doubts from the beginning; however, after coming out of the [Treasure Land], I was completely sure who you are, Brother Toby.”

Julia’s eyes had tears as she slowly walked toward Leo and replied.

‘It looks like I was not careful in hiding my identity properly.’

?[0)??? Leo knew that if he kept helping them, they would sooner or later find his identity; however, he didn’t expect his identity to be exposed so soon.

As the Talent Swallowing Hero, Leo was an expert in disguises; however, his identity was exposed by a young lady who was only a rank 7 healing hero.

Nevertheless, Leo was not shocked and didn’t think much about it.

“I am not the only one who suffered, you were also struggling for the whole time.”

Leo looked at Ryan and shook his head with a smile and tears.

Even though Leo suffered a lot during the last 10 years, Ryan did not have an easy time either.

He had to look after his twin siblings, suffering from weak body conditions and became a slave to the City Leader Theodore and his children so that they would let him and his siblings live in the city.

Basically, Ryan was an unofficial slave for the City Leader for the whole time, and Leo already knew about this.

So, he was adamant about killing the city leader even more and didn’t show any mercy while killing him.

“Brother, since you revealed your identity, it means you finished whatever that was stopping you from revealing your identity, right?”

After talking for a while, Ryan asked Leo.

“Right! The city leader is dead and you don’t have to fear him anymore.”

Soon, Leo briefly explained a few things that shocked both Ryan and Julia.

“What? You are friends with the Talent Swallowing Hero?”

“He helped you in killing the City Leader Theodore?”

Ryan and Julia asked with shocked looks on their faces as they couldn’t believe what they had just heard.

“Not friends. It’s just I got to know and he already has some vengeance against the city leader Theodore.”

Leo didn’t say he was the Talent Swallowing Hero or his past as he didn’t want his siblings to know all the things he had done in the past that he was not proud of.

“Brother, I want to meet the Talent Swallowing Hero and thank him properly for taking revenge for killing our parents.”

Ryan’s shocked expression disappeared and was replaced with a grateful expression towards the Talent Swallowing Hero.

“I will let him know when I meet him.”

Leo nodded with a slight smile and silently thought, ‘They should think that the revenge is complete. At least they could live peacefully.’

‘Those who seek revenge should dig two graves. One for the target and the other himself. I have already dug my grave long back and could not back off from it.’

Before he got adopted by Ryan’s parents, there was not a single day where he had lived without getting beaten up, and no one spoke kind words to him until he met Ryan’s parents.

Not only was he given nice food, clothes, and a good home, he became the big brother of the house.

‘Even when I didn’t awaken my talent in the ‘Hall of the Gods’, everyone looked down on me and asked my adoptive parents to disown me. However, my parents not only didn’t disown me but said I was a special one who was born to do great things in the future.’

Remembering the short but sweet seven years he spent with his parents, Leo’s heart could not help but ache.

That’s why the inner demon formed in his heart to kill the one who killed them.

Even though it was cleared after killing the city leader, Leo wanted to kill the main mastermind; only then could he live peacefully.

‘Moreover, it is better for them to not know about the Slave Maker and my plans for that b*stard; otherwise, with Ryan’s behavior, he would definitely want to join me in taking revenge which was risky for them.’

Leo didn’t want to put them in risky situations. So, he hid almost everything except that he was their brother.
