Chapter 338. Youre Still You (1)
Halo could only keep downing his drink after hearing the shocking words that spilled from Caron's mouth.
Seeing him like that, Caron burst out laughing as if he found the whole thing hilarious.
"Wow, your face still looks like it's about to explode when you're angry," he teased. "Be careful, at your age, if your veins pop, you'll keel over."
"How could I not be furious?" Halo barked. "Finding out my old friend got reincarnated as my grandson is already insane, but what? Do you realize how insane that sounds? I refuse to accept it!"
"I wasn't telling you this to convince you," Caron said, swirling the ice in his glass. "It was just something buried in the Demon King of Sloth's memories."
"I haven't completely absorbed those memories yet, so it could be wrong. Don't stress over it too much," he added with a shrug.
To summarize what Caron had told him...
"I am the reincarnation of Rael Leston."
The story was complicated, but that was the gist of it. Halo's furious reaction was only natural.
"You don't have a shred of proof!" Halo snapped.
His friend—his grandson—was apparently the Founder. That wasn't just a tangled family tree; it was utter chaos. Even for Halo, who prided himself on his open mind, this was too much.
But Caron simply waved his hand with a smirk and said, "Relax. I'm not asking you to treat me like the Founder."
