Chapter 651

Seeing Gilmore readily agree, the four women present, including Claire, nearly dropped their jaws in astonishment: Was Gilmore really planning to become sworn brothers with this foreigner, Rubus?

Rubus face lit up with joy upon hearing Gilmore’s words. “Mr. Reed, this is wonderful news.

“But I am older than you, would you mind being the younger brother?”

Gilmore smiled and replied. “According to our customs in Eldoria, the elder will be the older brother, so I don’t mind at all.”

They clinked glasses.

Gilmore and Rubus both finished their glasses of red wine.

“Mr. Vergil, we are now sworn brothers from different lands. From now on, you are my big brother, Ruben, Gilmore declared, placing his empty glass on the table and looking at Rubus.

Gilmore even went ahead and picked a nickname with a touch of Eldoria style, inspired by Rubus’s name.

Rubus nodded, “That’s right. From now on, we are sworn brothers from different lands. I’m your big brother, Ruben, and you are my good brother.”
