Curse The Mainframe - Chapter 466

Gareth leaned on the doorframe, looking at his friend being so hardworking even early in the morning.

When would this ghost ever rest? It seemed like the only things he ever saw Regis do was work, train, eat and sleep.

Besides that, it was taking care of his sister whom he had a bit of a complex over.

Gareth tutted with a tinge of glee in his tone. “Tsk, tsk.”

Regis ignored him.

Gareth tutted more loudly, shaking his head. “Tsk, tsk. It’s already become like this, yet you’re still so carefree. What a bad brother you are.”

This caught Regis’ attention. “Say what you want to say. Don’t dally around like this.”

Gareth rolled his eyes in both fondness and exasperation. He wondered how he ended up with this stiff person as his best friend. He must have been blind back then, but he couldn’t take it back now.

“Your sister has already been sandwiched by the two lovebirds in a pub, but you’re still here without a care.”

“What?” Regis finally looked up from his paperwork. He stood up abruptly, his face going completely cold. “Say it clearly!”

Gareth snickered. He could never keep his cool whenever it came to his sister. But he didn’t play around seeing as Regis was truly growing angry. “They somehow managed to stumble across Katherine while they were randomly making their way through the woods.”

Regis’ face darkened even further.

Don’t tell him that the two had truly found Katherine relying purely on luck?! Impossible!

The world was so wide, and with Katherine following that cousin of theirs that had popped out of nowhere around, it meant that they weren’t likely to stay in the same place for long, which was why he had taken the chance to get rid of the two with a flimsy and implausible excuse that they would have seen through had they been thinking about it harder.

But the two were lovesick, and it had apparently burned all their braincells out because they believed that if they were truly fated, then they could find Katherine without relying on external forces at all.

Regis immediately ditched all his work. “Go!”

Gareth couldn’t stop laughing along the way. “Go where? You don’t even know where they are right now.”

Regis didn’t stop his footsteps at all. He looked at Gareth from the corner of his eye, expressing his displeasure. “Don’t I have you?”

Gareth was speechless. Okay, he lost. He really did know where the three of them were right now.

The two of them got onto an avian creature, and Gareth controlled it, steering the way.

Suddenly, Gareth was struck with a though. Why did he just go along with the other person’s wishes? He had wanted to take the chance to tease him more, achieving satisfaction and gratification for all the bullying he had faced under Regis’ hands in the past, but he had actually listened like that without a brain.

He regretted it. What a loss!

Behind him, Regis was deep in thought.

How in the world had Jae and Brian managed to find Katherine even though they didn’t have any external help? Could it be that they were really fated?

But Regis had never believed in fate, so how could he believe it that easily?

There must have been something else. Perhaps someone had been guiding them to the destination? Or did they have a Magitype that helped them out in this aspect? He was quite sure, seeing the way they trained, that they didn’t, but he could never be one hundred percent certain.

In two hours, the creature descended outside a city, and the pair quickly entered.

The city wasn’t a large one. It could barely be considered one, a single step up from a town, but it wasn’t that poor either.

It looked decent enough to live in.

“Where are they?”

Gareth shrugged. “At the pub, most likely.”

“At… the pub… Katherine… in a pub…”

Gareth felt a chill from the cold air coming from this person beside him. He inwardly sweated for Jae and Brian. He hoped they knew what they were doing. Having to face this sis-con was truly… not for the weak-hearted.

Even chasing after Katherine needed Regis’ approval, let alone dating.

However, Gareth secretly smiled.

Regis had actually dug a pit for himself previously. He had told the two of them that if they managed to find Katherine without resorting to any external means, then he would approve of them chasing after her.

It wasn’t to the point of dating yet, but that meant that Regis couldn’t interfere with them chasing after his baby sister.

It looked like Regis had not yet remembered about the words that he said previously to get rid of the two who had become obsessed with his hellish training routine.

Since he couldn’t get rid of them, he had sent them on a wild goose chase, but they had actually managed to procure results!

Gareth didn’t know how they managed to do it, but he was thankful for the entertainment. And the fact that this idiot���s baby sister wouldn’t die alone because of his overprotectiveness in the future.

In the end, they found the three people inside a bar, chatting and drinking.

Jae and Brian were loud and rowdy while Katherine was drinking with a smirk on her face.

The sight of her smirk made Regis feel complicated. It had been a long time since he’d seen that supposedly arrogant-looking smirk look so soft.

Regis didn’t say anything. He just sat at the next table, maintaining his usual smile despite the chill in his eyes.

Gareth rolled his eyes. He went up to order some drinks before plonking it down on the table in front of Regis. “Why don’t you drink a bit? Loosen up. It’s not like you’re going to be able to control her forever. Let the girl have a life.”

Regis smiled brightly but Gareth only felt a chill. He didn’t make a move to take the drink in front of him.

Gareth sighed, tipping his mug back. “Even your sister is drinking…”

Regis had a reaction this time. He distastefully picked up the mug on the table and slammed it back, drinking it in one shot.

Gareth’s eyebrows shot up, then he whistled. He had never seen the other seemingly gentle man drink at all, but he started off so strong.

He was impressed despite himself.

At this time, Katherine had suddenly caught sight of Regis and Gareth, and her eyes widened in surprise before fading. They were still playing a role right now, and there were obviously people eavesdropping on them, so she couldn’t break character.

Gareth looked at Katherine and wriggled his eyebrows before turning his attention back to Regis.

But what he saw made his jaw drop.

Regis’ face had become flushed red, and he was obviously drunk. But he looked and acted very sober. He kept drinking, and even finished off Gareth’s beer when he obviously had mysophobia.

Gareth didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

It turned out that the reason why he had never seen him drinking was because he was a complete lightweight.

No wonder!

At this time, the trio next to them stood up wobbly and made their way out of the pub.

Gareth also pulled Regis with him, following after the trio who were acting like drunkards.

Three people acting like drunkards, but the really drunk one was the one who looked sober in Gareth’s hands.
