Chapter 1884

Macon and Gregory exchanged looks once more. They were both stunned and in disbelief.

"How did Gilbert end up heavily injured then?" Macon asked.

Lord Voodoo took a deep breath. "This is where the Charm Master comes into the picture. At the time, Gilbert wanted to go after Billy, so he chased Billy to Eastcliff to finish him off. However, he ended up running into the Charm Master. She made her move, and Gilbert nearly lost his life at Eastcliff."

"What? I-Is that true?" Macon and Gregory exclaimed in shock.

"Of course!" Lord Voodoo snapped. "I was the one who planted the Larva of the Immortal Charm onto Billy when I snuck up on him! I knew very well what happened that day! The Charm Master's powers are far beyond either one of your imaginations! Let me put it this way—her Golden Cocoon Charm hasn't reached its final stage yet, but even so, she's on par with the Six Kings right now. Once her Golden Cocoon Bug manages to devour all other cursed bugs and becomes the strongest of them all…

Hah. I can't think of anyone in the world who would be able to defeat her then!"

Macon and Gregory's eyes bulged out of their sockets. "Lord Voodoo, d-don't be an alarmist! There are scores of powerful people in the world! Also, the Martial Emperor is in Bainbridge overseeing all of Cathay. I doubt that a little girl can compare to the Martial Emperor!"
