Rise Of The Hoarder Chapter 91 Apology (Pt 2)

“Oh? You were speaking? I had no idea… your voice was too low for to hear, after all.” I replied to lissa’s rageful words.r

This made her deep scowl beco even more intense.r

“Could you repeat what you said? I truly couldn’t hear you.” I asked with an innocent tone.r

Of course, lissa already knew I was faking it. The disgrace she was experiencing was my fault, and I was taking pleasure in it.r

“Jeremy. There’s sothing you should know. I wanted lissa to go first, but maybe I should.” Daniel suddenly said, interrupting my little chat with his girlfriend.r

“What is it? You’ve co to bully again? lissa did say she was bringing you to visit next ti. I suppose the both of you have co to gang up on .” I smiled at him.r

I didn’t know whether it was him being foolish, or just as a pretense, but Daniel instantly beca flustered by my clever use of words and quickly shook his head.r

“N-no way! I didn’t co here for that at all. I just thought we could talk… to sort things out between us. A-about our past and all-“r

‘Pfft, this guy… has he really beco such a wuss?’ I grinned internally.r

Glancing at lissa, I saw her sickened and embarrassed expression. She was clearly despising how Daniel acted in front of . The sa person she had used to threaten was now acting like an overgrown baby.r.

“I don’t believe you. I don’t trust you. Your timing is convenient too, now that Ana and everyone else aren’t present, you’ve co to just ‘talk’? What kind of BS is that?” I asked, intentionally raising my voice.r

This drove both of them into a panic. After all, If both of them were to be found bullying , the golden egg of the Camp, who knew how everyone would react?r

“Stop, Jeremy. Daniel is being honest! I-if you can’t believe him, then check his Status… you’ll see that… he… he has changed…” lissa protested, attempting to calm down. r

Her voice faded slowly though, now looking away in sha.r

I did as she said, looking at Daniel’s Status information. As expected… he was weak.r

[SYSTEM INFORMATION]r

Na: Danielr

Race: Humanr

Sex: Maler

Level: 30r

Alignnt: Lawful Good (Penitent)r

[End Of Information]r

I knew more than the Status Introduction let on, though. Since Charles had shown everything, I was even aware of his Gift.r

“L-level 30! Whoah, that’s even stronger than Ana and the Camp Leader!” I bead, feigning shock.r

Daniel smiled sheepishly, looking away quickly.r

“W-well, I am the Camp’s Ace, after all.” He mumbled.r

He appeared a little curious about my own Status information as well, but Charles had already told them about my story with the Masked Man and how he made sure no one could check my info.r

Even if anyone beca cynical about my testimony, it wouldn’t be the dunce in front of .r

At this point, there was no point in pushing things with Daniel anymore. I hadn’t forgotten my revenge, and when the ti arrives, it would be amusing to see, but for now…r

“So, you’re good now. I see…” My voice trailed, looking at his pleading face.r

“Jeremy, I’m truly sorry for how I treated you in the past. I have changed, and I want you to know that. So, please… can you forgive ?” Daniel burst out.r

‘Ah, hearing such a sincere apology from soone like him…’ My mind trailed.r

Sure, his tone was kinder now, and his face didn’t have the angry scowl he always wore back then. His Alignnt states that he is kind, and everyone testified to this. r

Yet… no matter how much I mulled over these facts, there was no way I could separate this version of him from the old one I knew.r

‘Your face is still the sa, your sll, your voice, your height, your build… everything is! I was forced to morize every single detail about you because I was so frightened of your re presence. It doesn’t matter how much you change now, Daniel… I’m still going to make you pay!’r

Well, there was no way I was going to tell him that at the mont.r

“I-I… I don’t fully forgive you yet. But, Ana did tell a little about you, and Charles spoke of you. So, for now… I’m fine with us being Camp mbers.” I responded hesitantly.r

If I had been too eager to accept, it would have been be suspicious, and if I was too aggressive, that would be unreasonable.r

There had to be a balance.r

“Really? That’s enough for Jeremy!” Daniel bead, bickering about several things and gushing in front of .r

I endured and listened to his nonsense until he was finally done.r

The only one who remained was his dear girlfriend, lissa.r

“I’m sorry for assaulting you yesterday, it won’t happen again.” She stated flatly.r

It was a little unremarkable, compared to what I expected. Plus, she didn’t apologize for the past, but I decided to accept it anyway.r

‘It’s not like it changes anything.’r

lissa still appeared pissed, ad she seethed in silent rage, while Daniel was relieved and happy. I smiled and spoke with them a little, telling them how excited I was to be a mber of the family, asking if there were any other mbers of our class who were in the camp, and many others. r

After so minutes of a ntally exhausting conversation, both of them finally left alone.r

“Haaa, finally. That was tiring…” I sighed heavily, bringing out a half-finished soda from [Subspace].r

“Here’s to hoping I never run into them again!” I cheered at the impossible wish and downed the tasty liquid, feeling the sweetness go down my throat.r

It was refreshing.r

“Huu, now that’s the stuff!” I smiled, licking my lips.r

The conversation between Charles and Ana suddenly ca back to my mind, making bring out the Speaker once again to listen in. However, by the ti I was done, the conversation was over. I could only hear scribbling sounds, which was most likely Charles writing down so things.r

‘That ans… Ana is-‘r

The door suddenly creaked open and I saw Ana’s figure entering. The speaker was right beside , and I was still holding my soda.r

If she saw , it was going to be quite an awkward situation.r
