Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 2091

"What?"

Wilbur was astonished when he heard the old man's words. He said, "Sir, are you asking me to go down to Lake Gelsa and snatch Jenny back from the hands of the merfolk?"

"Exactly, that's what I mean."

Upon hearing this, Wilbur said with a hint of frustration, "But this matter has nothing to do with the eighth dragon cauldron. Aren't you making things difficult for me intentionally?"

The old man did not answer directly. Instead, after a moment of silence, he turned to look at the swirling snow outside and said, "If you feel troubled, you can leave. I won't stop you. Remember, no matter when you decide to leave, I won't stop you. Because I'm not begging you."

"Okay."

Wilbur did not argue back and just agreed to the old man's request. After all, after more than a month of contact, Wilbur had already understood the old man's character. The old man never went back on any decision he made and also proved that everything went just as he said it would.

"However, I have a question. Over this past month, you had me chop wood, grab fish, and strengthen my muscles. Is this all for this?"

"Yes. Otherwise, why would you come to Gelsa?"

"Yes, I've decided."

"Alright then, prepare yourself. You'll dive down into the lake tonight."

The old man took out a two-meter-long harpoon from the wooden house and said, "This is a harpoon of the merfolk. They are extremely cunning, preferring to attack from a distance with harpoons. And the merfolk's vision far exceeds that of humans. They can see very subtle things. Therefore, going down to the lake at night will be more advantageous for you."

The merfolk were extremely ferocious, so the old man instructed Wilbur that if he encountered any merfolk in Lake Gelsa, he must not hesitate and must kill them. Otherwise, they would surely hide and look for opportunities to ambush him.
