2024-05-21 14:48:08And he earned it only after two days trapped in Icalaterra. Even though he had to bet his own life to get that much money, his face looks so bright with an indescribable excitement.
He exchanges one gold coin for $893.64. And soon, a light occurs in front of him, and some dollar bills drop, along with a few pennies. Excited, he rushes back to the fast food outlet to order.
But again, he gets yelled at by the previous girl. “Why are you still here?”
“I just want to make an order,” says Jimmy.
“Making an order?” the girl squints.
Annoyed by the girl’s harsh treatment, Jimmy deliberately takes out a piece of $100 bill and shows it to the girl.
He expects the girl to be surprised and change her attitude. However…
“Whose money did you steal?” she inquires.
“Steal? It’s mine,” replies Jimmy.
“Bullshit!” the girl denies. “You just said you only had money to buy a bottle of mineral water.”
Jimmy ignores her argument, stepping forward, and putting the money on the table. “Just give me some food to eat! I’m dead hungry!”
“We don’t accept orders from a thief,” the girl shoves Jimmy’s money off the table.
Jimmy scrunches his face, before he picks the money back. “Okay, fine! It’s not my money. I’m just a beggar, and I got this from someone out there!”
“You are lying!” accuses the girl.
“Look! Why don’t you just give me something to eat, and then, you can take the rest,” Jimmy tries to bargain.
The girl glances at that one $100 bill. It is actually enough to buy more than 10 portions of the menu in her shop.
“Fine!” She takes the money. “Now, make your order quick! I still have so many works to do!”
Jimmy glances at the menu displayed. Just a moment, because he only needs something that can fill him up.
“That menu no. 4,” says Jimmy.
“A chicken wing with a rice plus coke?” the girl reaffirms as she picks a pen.
“Add another portion of rice, no coke, but one bottle of mineral water,” replies Jimmy.
He then looks for an empty table, while the girl goes to the kitchen to relay the note to her brother.
“Hey, Max! A new order,” says the girl as she leaves the note. “Ah, please put an extra chicken wing on the plate!”
“Is it your friend again?” asks the brother. “Come on, Laura! When will we get rich if you keep giving extra like this?”
“It’s just a beggar,” replies Laura in half shouting. “Stop whining! Helping the needy won’t make you poor!”
Soon, she gets back to Jimmy by bringing his order, with one extra chicken wing. It seems like she is not that bad at all.
But Jimmy doesn’t express any gratitude. He keeps glancing at her coldly, with a sour face. And so, the girl pays him back with a mean word.
“Make it quick, and leave! I bet you haven’t had any shower for days.”
After the girl leaves him, Jimmy sniffs at his armpit. He does look uncomfortable with his own body odor. But soon, before that girl getting too far away from him…
“Hold on, wait!” he calls. “Where can I get a bus to Summerfield?”
The girl shuts silent for a moment before giving an answer. “There’s no bus to Summerfield. Why don’t you beg someone for money and buy your own car?”
“What the?”
The girl just walks away by hiding her satisfied smile.
Irritated, Jimmy eats the food as fast as he can. The few customers in that shop watch him by hiding their silly chuckles.
“Look at how he eats!”
“Just like a hungry wolf that just managed to catch its prey.”
“He completely abandons all etiquette at the dinner table like an animal.”
Jimmy can hear them, but he doesn’t care. He admits how hungry he is, and continues devouring the rice and the chicken wing.
“You will know how delicious this food is after experiencing what I just experienced,” he grumbles in his heart.
Unlike those people, the girl who owns the food shop feels touched seeing how Jimmy enjoys the food so much
In just five minutes, Jimmy finishes everything and walks out by taking the bottled mineral water. He keeps whining about the girl, believing that she has lied to him.
He knows so sure there are buses from Drada to Summerfield. He just doesn’t know where to get them.
“She is cute, I admit it! But why is she so damn annoying?”
With a fallen shoulder, he walks along the road until he finds a bus. He lets the bus take him around the city until he reaches the terminal. But sadly, in the terminal…
“It just left a while ago,” says a terminal officer. “That’s the only bus to Summerfield today.”
“Ah, God,” Jimmy whines with a tired face.
“I’m afraid you have to wait for another two days,” the man continues. “Or maybe, you can rent a car. Anyway! What are you going to do in Summerfield?”
“I live there,” replies Jimmy before he walks away.
Jimmy starts checking the store inside that weird system again, and keeps scrolling. But nothing seems to be useful for his current situation. There’s not even a phone he can buy there.
“Oh, that’s right! I should just look for a phone booth!”
Well, it’s a big city indeed. But the phone booths have been abandoned by society since the age of mobile phones.
After looking for hours without any result, his attention is drawn to one motorbike dealer shop. He has the money. And usually, easy money is also easy to spend.
He doesn’t take too much time to think, and immediately crosses the street.
“That’s it! Let’s just buy a bike, and leave this shitty place!”

Upon entering the shop, he gets the same reaction as the girl at food outlet earlier. At least, the sales girl in this shop doesn't immediately cast him away.“Excuse me! Are you lost?” “No, I want to purchase a motorbike,” replies Jimmy.The girl looks so unenthusiastic, before she looks to another direction, to another sales girl with yellow hair, looking pretty like a flight attendance.“Amy! Could you come here for a moment and do something for this guy here?”That girl simply takes her leave, even without making sure that one sales girl named Amy really comes to Jimmy.In the meantime, Jimmy has to endure his annoyance for being ignored while that Amy girl is busy with her phone.

By the way, thanks for the water,” says Jimmy as he walks away. “Hold on! Wait!” the girl calls. “Do you have a phone number?” Jimmy turns around. “A phone number?” “Um…, uh… It, it will be a long road. Something could just happen to you on the way, so…” “Oh, you are right! But, sorry! I don’t have a phone. You see, I lost everything because of the accident.” Jimmy smiles and takes his leave.

Without saying anything to Jimmy, she just raises her chin up and then walks away.But then…“Aunt Molly!” Jimmy calls.Molly turns around and only responds to Jimmy's call with a sour face.“I’m going to move out, and I’ll take Erick with me,” says Jimmy.Molly's eyebrows twitch. From that alone, Jimmy already can read the mood.“I'm old enough,” continues Jimmy. “You can’t stop me now! I already have a part-time job. I'm sure it's more than enough for…”“More than enough for what?” Molly interrupts coldly. “What do you think you can do with the meager salary you earn at Leonard’s farm?”“The salary isn't big in your eyes, but it's enough to cover our expenses,” Jimmy insists.“You may leave,” says Molly. “But Erick has to stay here with me.”Jimmy looks so annoyed. He clenches his hands so tightly. It's not to punch that 41 year old lady. He is enduring his frustration at the moment.“With Uncle Jackson's large income, you could have hired a maid.

Later, Jimmy stops at the gate of a housing complex called 'The Serenity Garden', a complex he never entered before.“So, this is the most beautiful housing in Summerfield, huh?”After taking a brief look at the map, he rides his bike inside the complex.There are a total of 37 two-story modern houses. The yards seem spacious because there are no fences between the houses, only garden full of flowers separating them.Several children are seen playing around in cheer. Jimmy stops by the side of the road, and soon a boy comes over to him.“Are you lost?” asks the boy.Jimmy shows the photo to the boy. “Well, I’m looking for this house!”“Oh, this must be The Vampire’s Den?” utters the boy, seeming to recognize it.Jimmy scrunches his face.

Before midday, Detective Dotson visits a tomato sauce factory owned by Morgan Mitchell. Previously he had visited Morgan's house, but no one welcomed him.At least, he was informed that Morgan would be here in this factory. Yet, the receptionist keeps denying him.“If that's the case, I'll wait here until he comes,” Dotson insists.“There is no guarantee Mr. Morgan would be coming today. He's a very busy person,” explains the receptionist guy.“I'll stay here at least until you guys close,” says Dotson before looking for a seat.He keeps starting around, examining his surroundings just like a genuine detective. Occasionally, he steals glances at the receptionist guy.And as he expected, the receptionist starts acting unnaturally, making a call secretly, while occasionally glancing at Detective Dotson.“I've tried to chase him away, sir!

What's wrong with him contacting us?”A woman's chattering which is not so foreign to him ruins his mood and comfort.Jimmy throws back the blanket and then gets up to sit on the nursing bed, waiting for the arrival of the annoying Aunt Molly.“Oh, you are awake?” says Molly as she enters the treatment room, welcoming Jimmy's morning with a sour face. “That's great!

“Hey, Tyler! Have you gone nuts?”“Woi! Let her go! If you are so hungry, we still have some meat left!”They pull Tyler away, but that friend of theirs isn’t letting Julia go. The bite is so strong that it pulls some part of Julia’s flesh off.The girl is kneeling, crying and screaming so wild. Tyler reaches out his hands at Dwayne, while opening his mouth wide. Dwayne feels so eerie, and can only push him away.“Hey, Tyler! Enough already!”On the other hand Peter is now holding his knees, looking so weak with rag breathing. It seems like the zombie poison in his body has also weakened him.Dwayne averts his attention to Peter. Now he is starting to worry about himself, believing that he must have also been inflicted by the same illness like his friends have.And indeed, he feels like he is gradually weaker and weaker.“What’s going on with me?”Meanwhile…“Kukukuu!

They drag Jimmy away from the swamp, until they meet with Julia who has only been watching from afar.The girl looks so excited. She intends to kick Jimmy’s head, but Peter just pushes her away harshly.“What was that?” She immediately gets up, looking so pissed off.“You are going to wake him up,” Peter reprimands. “Let’s take him back to the cave first. You can do whatever you please there.”Julia’s irritated face slowly changes. An evil satisfied grin adorns her face.Later, after taking Jimmy back to their hideout, in the cave behind a waterfall, they wait for Jimmy to wake up.Dwayne is ready with an unsheathed katana, while Peter is now engrossed with a gun he has snatched from Jimmy’s waist.“Hey, Peter! Keep pointing the gun at him! Don’t forget, he can summon weapons out of nowhere,” Dwayne reprimands.Peter stops playing with the gun and then points it at Jimmy. They then wait, wait, and wait, until at one moment….“That’s it! I can kick him now, right?” asks Julia.She doesn

The third day on the Leawel Isles, Jimmy still has to continue the hunt, in the grassy lowland, located between the forest and the coastline.As Marco speculated, this place is indeed the rheas' favorite habitat, something Jimmy has never thought of before.“You see! One of the most important things in hunting is to know the habits and habitat of your prey,” explains Marco in a whisper.Unlike before, they bring Cynthia and Zoe along, but don’t give the two girls bow guns. This is better than leaving the two of them in the cave.The grass around them is quite tall, making it easy for them to approach their prey quietly. Not to mention Marco, who is also quite talented with a bow gun and rarely misses his target.They only need to kill 6 rheas, and manage to accomplish this even before midday. Everything is done by Marco alone, while Jimmy hasn’t hit a single rhea at all.“You see! We don’t need to immediately kill them!” Marco hands over his bow gun at Jimmy. “After injuring one rhea,

Julia looks so frustrated, before she averts her attention to Dwayne. “We need to do something! I’m telling you! He is our key to get back to Summerfield!”Dwayne doesn’t say a word. He then glances at the crowbar in his hand, with whatever thought he has in his mind.Later, he also ignores Julia. He doesn’t follow Tyler, but heading toward the river.“Hey, Dwayne!” Peter calls as he rushes to prevent him. “You want to confront that guy with just a crowbar! Are you out of your mind?”Apparently, Dwayne goes to the river only to pick the dead rhea abandoned by Marco. He picks it and then throws it toward Peter. Somehow, there’s still some confidence in his face.“A crowbar is enough! But first, we need food! You can’t win a war without food!”It’s a good thing they have meat to eat now. However, none of them knows how to make fire. It doesn’t even cross their minds about the importance of fire, but they look so excited for having something to eat.***Two days have passed in Summerfield

It hits Jimmy so hard that he is flung two meters away and falls into a deeper part of the river. The snake isn’t letting that chance slip, and immediately slithers toward him.Jimmy clearly sees the snake’s head underwater, while the gun is no longer in his hand. And there’s no way to issue any command now.Just as the snake opens its mouth to eat Jimmy, it suddenly behaves strangely. It’s thrashing around like it's in so much pain.Jimmy has the opportunity to bring his head above the surface, and immediately swims to the nearest river bank, even though he has to get closer to the snake.And then…“Inventory! Box No. 6!”…“Yes!”A shotgun appears in the air and drops. It’s a pump-action semi-automatic shotgun with 20-gauge shells.“Kachk!” He pumps once, and then shoots the snake’s body at point-blank range.Boom!The snake raises its head from the water, opening its mouth wide, either in pain or it is angry at Jimmy.As soon as it turns its head toward Jimmy…“Kachk! Boom!”One sh

Now, because it has been passed many times, a path has been formed leading to the river. Julia finds no difficulty at all following it.A few moments later, she hears Zoe’s excited laughter. She stands behind the bushes, observing Zoe who is completely naked, having fun in the freshwater.“Come on, Cynthia! Take off your clothes!” Zoe invites in half shouting.“Naaah!” Cynthia declines as she keeps skinning the dead rhea with a knife. “It’s going to take a while for me to clean a chicken this big. I’m dead hungry. I want to grill this one as soon as possible.”Julia stays there for quite a while, with whatever kind of thought she has in her mind.As she keeps observing them, Julia’s grip on the crowbar is getting tightened. Her face looks so sour full of emotion, unlike the pitiful pale face she has been showing inside Serene Den.She steps forward, but accidentally steps on a dry twig. Immediately, she gets down right before Cynthia looks in her direction.Cynthia abandons her work.
