The Invincible Mercenary King (by Matt Watt) novel Chapter 191

Chapter 191 

“We haven’t seen each other for so many years. I wonder what Mia has become? 

“I didn’t see her clearly at the reunion 

time I wonder what she looks like without makeup” 

As Haylan Jaber walked, he circulated his cultivation technique to expel the alcohol from his body to restore his consciousness. Meanwhile, he was constantly carving arrays into the spirit stones and engraving protective gem. 

During this time, he couldn’t help but recall Mia’s image. 

In the past, they were good friends and even ate and shopped together. 

However, after Mia moved away, they lost contact 

Now that it had been eight years, he had experienced many things and had long forgotten Mia’s face. 

He racked his brain but could not remember what Mia his memory looked like, for the gathering was the only time he had seen her again 

He had focused on a conflict with Corey Lanton and Maxwell Rivers, so his attention had not been on Mia and her face. Besides, Mia was wearing makeup at that time, so Haylan didn’t pay much attention to it. 

memory. 

All he could remember was that she was very beautiful, but her face had long become blurry in his Since he couldn’t recall, he decided to stop dwelling on it and focused on carving formations to embed them into the spirit 

stones. 

The carving knife in his hand moved with great agility. As he worked, his vital energy infused the spirit stone, transforming it into a mysterious pattern 

The result looked quite magical and enigmatic 

Once the array formation was complete, the pattern slowly became transparent, blending seamlessly with the spirit stone. Even upon close inspection, it was nearly impossible to discern the intricate array within. The stone itself seemed to have evolved, emanating a cold and refreshing aura, lilled with an enigmatic charm. 

Most importantly, as the spirit formation merged with the spirit stone, the spirit stone seemed to have evolved. Its entire body was filled with a mysterious charm. It was cold to the touch and made him feel refreshed. 

‘It’s a pity that there’s only one decent spirit stone. The rest are all incomplete spirit stones” Haylan Jaber thought to herself. The most naturally formed spirit stone was the emerald pendant. Before leaving, he had already engraved the arrays on it and given it to lus mother. Felicia Jaber, to wear. 

While he walked, he continued carving arrays, and by the time he finished carving the five protective gem pieces, he had reached the barbecue stall 

It was already 7:30 p.m. when Haylan arrived at the barbecue stall, and while the lights had just been turned on, the business was not yet bustling. 

Though Noah Wrinkler had not arrived, there were many students in school uniforms passing by. 

Their faces were youthful, high-spirited, and full of life. Some students were even memorizing the class materials as they walked hurriedly toward school. 

Haylan looked at them and sighed, “Alas, those old days…” 

He had also been like them, wearing his school uniform and carrying his books from home to school. 

Things were the same now, but people had changed. After eight years of war, he was no longer young and frivolous, nor did he have the passionate motivation and vigor of his youth. 

Haylan looked at these students, wishing he could have been back to his teenage days again. 

Once upon a time, he had also been one of them. 

Haylan gazed at his own face on his phone, now in his twenties, then at the faces of the teenage students passing by, feeling 

more sentimental. 

“Time is a file that wears and makes no noise,” he thought 

Since Noah and Mia were not yet there, Haylan found a seat at the food stall and continued to strengthen the array formation in the spirit stone. 

While working, Lucy Zabel called and said in a friendly tone, “Haylan, I’m sorry, but my grandfather canceled the plan and instead decided to hold the banquet for you in our place. I’ll see you tomorrow at seven.” 

“Okay, I’ll see you there,” replied Haylan. 

After hanging up, he resumed carving spirit stones and strengthening the arrays. 

At this moment, a tall and curvaceous beauty in a high school uniform carrying a school bag approached Haylan and asked politely. “Excuse me, is this seat taken?” 

Haylan looked up and was taken aback. 

She was such a beauty! 

The female student was stunningly beautiful, with an oval face and willowy eyebrows. Moreover, her lively eyes seemed to speak. 

She had a ponytail and thick bangs that covered her forehead, giving her a quiet and elegant appearance. Despite her youthful looks and liveliness, she also wore a pair of pink glasses. 

Despite her thick bangs covering part of her face, her exquisite facial features and flawless skin showed that she was a beautiful woman 

The curvaceous figure of the woman sitting across from him was not hidden by the oversized school uniform. She had a graceful and slender body shape that was truly captivating 

Haylan couldn’t help but think that she was too beautiful to be true. 

“Excuse me. kid. I have someone with me. Can you please find another seat?” Haylan said calmly 

Although this student was very beautiful, he did not have any ill intentions or improper thoughts. He was not interested in 

this student. 

Noah and Mia were also expected to join him, and he did not want to cause any misunderstanding or jokes. How could he sit with this young girl? 

He did not want to cause any misunderstanding or awkward situations. 

The student smiled at him but did not leave. Instead, she sat across from him and rested her chin on her hands, gazing affectionately at Haylan. “Mr. you’re so handsome. Are you waiting for your girlfriend?” 

“You’d better go to study,” Haylan said. 

“No. I don’t see a man like you every day, so I am not leaving.”
