A Journey from Bitterness to Truth (Matilda and Yvan) novel Chapter 597

Orson's statement sent shockwaves through the room, causing both R7CKY and Ventus to snap their heads in surprise.

Yvan and Logan were equally stunned, their jaws practically hitting the floor. Logan, backing up a few steps, suddenly connected the dots. He remembered R7CKY mentioning a mysterious friend who had gone undercover in the Jungle Union, only to vanish without a trace some weeks ago. It all made sense now; that friend was Orson.

R7CKY's eyes went wide as saucers, his voice trembling, "You... you..."

"Are you Sloth?"

Sloth, also known as the sin of laziness, was a label R7CKY never imagined fitting their elusive friend who had disappeared without leaving a trace. And now, here he was, the elusive Orson, heir to the Jungle Union...

Even Logan couldn't hide his disbelief, "Uncle Orson, you're one of the Seven Sins?!"

Recalling Orson's legendary ability to fall asleep at the drop of a hat, his reserved nature, and his icy demeanor, Logan couldn't help but think the title of Sloth was well-earned.

Orson fell silent for a moment before R7CKY, unable to contain himself, dashed up and poked his face, "Man, Sloth, why keep your identity a secret for so long? We've been looking everywhere for you..."

"I was trapped and injured, couldn't get in touch," Orson replied, sinking back onto the couch as Yvan and Logan looked on, their expressions a mix of shock and awe - like meeting an online friend in real life for the first time.

This was... an unexpected twist of fate.

"I thought you infiltrated the Jungle Union because of Hadrian's death, not because you were one of them," R7CKY mused.
