With his hand raised up high, Donald countered by stabbing the center of Francesco's palm with two of his fingers.
"Argh!"
When Donald's fingers pierced through his palm, Francesco howled in excruciating pain as he recoiled from the attack.
The moment he got a clear glimpse of Donald's face, Francesco froze at his feet, as if he was struck by lightning. The look on his face gradually transitioned from bewilderment to panic.
Crab face. Why is he here?
As Donald pulled Reina back to her feet, he gave her a puzzled look as if the memory shards in his mind were raging turbulently.
Reina, too, stared at him through the hair that covered his face with an equally baffled expression. Despite the familiarity of his clean-cut face, she was unable to recognize him still.
When the shattered memories in Donald's mind gradually rearranged themselves, scenes from the past began to emerge.
That was the reason why he kept his distance earlier. And now, he had fully regained his memories of Reina.
"Good sir... please don't interfere!” Francesco called out.
Donald, who didn't even bother to give him a look, focused his attention on Reina. Sweeping his fringes aside to reveal his face completely, he whispered, "I'm sorry I'm late."
Jolted by his words, Reina stared at him in disbelief. The initial shock on her face was soon replaced by an ecstatic expression.
Subsequently, her eyes began to redden as she stared at Donald with a mix of smiles and tears.
He's alive! He's really back!
Looking at him longingly, Reina could feel the sorrow that had accumulated within her for the past year being washed away.
Arnaldo was briefly stunned before wild delight filled his eyes.
It looks like Reina is acquainted with Crabface!
As for Francesco, a sense of dread began to overwhelm him, for he was well aware that Crabface's power level was five million, similar to that of a humanized assault weapon.
After letting down his hair to cover his face, Donald gradually turned around to face Francesco.
