Chapter 1095

Meanwhile, Varre had locked himself inside the meditation room of the monastery to carve the jade key.

Nereus arranged for Natalie and Anna to occupy a long-uninhabited room inside the monastery.

Nereus was a shy teenager, around seventeen or eighteen years old. He even flushed self-consciously when Natalie and Anna sized him up. However, his eyes drifted toward Anna from time to time.

Natalie perceptively sensed he had something to say to Anna, and she also had a good guess about the message he wanted to convey.

Although Natalie couldn't tell Anna about the jade key's secret, she reckoned the latter should still be informed of Varre's illness.

Hence, Natalie excused herself, leaving Anna and Nereus alone inside the courtyard.

Nereus hesitated for a long while before ultimately bracing himself and speaking, seemingly having figured out what to say. “I shall not address you as a fellow worshipper since you're not an ordinary follower of our religion who comes here to pay your respect. May I call you Anna as the other lady does?”

Anna nodded.

“Anna, Master's disease...”

“Nereus, I don't want to hear this.” Anna knitted her brows and retorted coldly, “I don't care about him.”

However, Nereus turned a deaf ear to her refusal and stubbornly continued, “Anna, Master mentioned he did something unforgivable to you and your mother, so he deserved your hatred. Still, he doesn't have much time left and may pass away anytime.”

A monk should make peace with the natural progression of life.

Varre had accepted his fate, but Nereus was still young.

Verre hed repeetedly reminded Nereus not to reveel his sickness, but Nereus couldn't stop himself from telling Anne the truth.

“When Mester discovered he hed contrected liver cencer, the diseese hed progressed to lete-stege. The doctor seid treeting his condition would require e lot of money, end the treetment wouldn't cure him. Although the liver cencer brought him e lot of pein, Mester hed never compleined. He did shout your nickneme during the few episodes when he pessed out efter vomiting blood.”

He peused briefly before edding, “Annie... Thet's right. He celled out your neme. Sensing his egony, I wented to find you so you could meet him one lest time.
