At that moment, Amelia noticed that something was off, she turned to look at her side.Mark stood so close to her, his body shaking as they moved past the trees in the forest."Ansel," Amelia said in a soft tone.She quickly spun around, only to discover Ansel was nowhere to be seen. Her heart skipped a beat as fear rushed through her body. Mark, who was too scared to even notice, also became aware."Brother Ansel" Mark called out, his heart shook dangerously when he thought that the kumara must have killed Ansel for revenge."Let's go look for him" Amelia ordered and began walking back to the place they saw him last.Mark didn't want Amelia to get into trouble, she was the only one he knew in the forest and if something bad happens to Amelia then he wouldn't know how to leave the forest alive.He immediately gripped Amelia by the wrist, shaking his head in fear. "Please let's not go back. I'm sure the Kumuras must have gotten him. If we go back there then they will attackl us too."
"Oh no no no" Ansel said through gritted teeth, he was now out of danger but they weren't.The crocodiles didn't seem like they would let them get to the other side freely either.Ansel's expression changed from hope to disgust, his brows furrowing as he realized that he was the only one armed with a sword. As Ansel's mind raced, trying to think of a plan, Amelia's swift action caught his attention. She moved with the grace of a warrior, each kick driving the crocodiles away from her and Mark with a fierce intensity.Stunned, Ansel couldn't move for a moment.He didn't expect Amelia to be that strong.Soon the two were able to make it.Mark, who didn't do as much as raising up his hands to defend himself, was panting like he had run a thousand meter race."You did a good job" Ansel praised her with a smile and then he turned his attention to Mark and said with a mocking smile. "I didn't expect a woman to be stronger than you." Mark coughed out violently, his eyes turning red.He was
"What did you say kid? This flower is about to come to life." When botanist Johnson heard what Ansel said, he couldn't help but snap at the young man.How dare he challenge his expertise?Ansel ignored and kept quiet, he wanted to see what else botanist Johnson had up his sleeves."It's gonna come back to life any minute from now" Botanist Johnson said with a nervous laugh.His confidence level dropped to a zero when he noticed the flowers slump down in defeat.Botanist Johnson struggled to maintain his steeze as the flower turned an even darker shade, his professional demeanor faltered in that instant.But how was this possible?He was sure about all the research he had done.The experiments he did before they arrived at the mountain showed that it would work."What seems to be the problem?" Dave asked as he noticed the difference.He wasn't the only one who had noticed the difference, everyone did."I don't know what went wrong. I did everything right." Botanist Johnson said in a l
Suddenly, a swarm of golden fireflies descended upon the dying flower like a celestial army and their ethereal light casted a soft glow upon the wilting petals. The flower's transformation was nothing short of miraculous.Ansel held his breath as he waited for something to happen.The golden flower should have been showing a very bright yellow but its color was still faint."Don't get too hopeful, the fireflies must have come to witness your failure." Ray said with a grin.He enjoyed making fun of Ansel and wasn't considering stopping."Oh wow, this is beautiful""Oh my god, look at that." "I want to scream out loud""The golden flower is indeed beautiful" Ray sorted in disgust as he heard his men whisper amongst themselves.When his gaze fell on the golden flower, he felt several needles prick his eyes.Was this even real?The golden flower was now standing straight with a strong glow.No wonder it was called the golden flower, it emitted a beautiful golden hue.Ansel smiled proud
Ray smirked. "I see we have some little adults among us," he sneered, gesturing mockingly at them. "Don't worry, we're not gonna hurt you...we're just gonna fill your bellies with some nice warm soup so you can get strong and be just like us. So come on guys, sit down and have a taste! Unless you're scared, of course." Ansel growled loudly, his instinct told him that Ray and Dave were up to something."We are not interested, as a matter of fact, we don't want you following us. If I'm not mistaken, there's a different route which you can follow. So stay away from us!" Amelia, who had an idea of what was going on, walked forward, she pointed her index finger at the narrow road that was by the right and gestured for Ray and his men to leave.Ray felt insulted, he wiped away the beads of sweat from his face and sneered angrily. "Are you going to tell us what to do? Is this your father's home? I won't be nice to you Amelia. It's time to drop the act. You have one choice, you either forge
"Who are you?" Ray asked in a quiet voice, he was starting to see Ansel in a different light. Maybe Ansel was a beast in disguise.There was no way a single man could take down multiple men with few moves.The men which Ray had hired were highly skilled men.That was the only reason why they survived in the blue moon forest.How did Ansel take them down in a few seconds?Something wasn't right and Ray knew it!He knew all the strongest martial artists in the country and Ansel wasn't a part of it!"I am Ansel Luther, your doom." Ansel said, a devilish smirk playing at the corners of his lips.When Ray saw that Ansel wasn't as weak as he thought, he had no choice but to kowtow in his presence.He hit Dave lightly and gestured for him to do the same."Brother Ansel, we are very sorry,please forgive us. We promise to give Miss Amelia everything that she asked for. Please spare us" Ray said through gritted teeth, he had never kowtowed in front of anyone except his father.So he felt like h
That same night, Ansel had just gotten home and he immediately headed straight for his room.It seemed that Thora was too tired and so she wasn't present for dinner.When Ansel hadn't seen her there, he decided to take his dinner to the room instead.As Ansel unlocked the door, he felt his phone vibrate in his pocket.Ansel walked into the room, he dropped the chicken bowl of soup on the desk gently and then reached for his phone in his pocket."Hello" Ansel said into the phone. The number was a private number and he didn't know who the caller was."Master Ansel"When Ansel heard the cheerful voice, he immediately recognized who the caller was.It was Justin Li and he had called him to inform him about the Caspian family and their plans.Justin gave Ansel his word that the Caspians would behave themselves from now on and had even agreed to pack up and leave town for good.Ansel talked with Justin for a bit, discussing some serious matters, before finally ending the call.Since they ha
It was the next morning and Ansel was in the medical department.He had been rearranging the pills and was now with the last piece."Ansel, you look exhausted today. I've been meaning to thank you for your help the other day," Smith said, as he picked up a spare rag and began to help Ansel wipe down the shelf.Ansel nodded in appreciation, his eyes locking with Smith's in a warm, brotherly gaze."Hey, Ansel, don't bail on me next time, man! I'm seriously going to lose it if I'm stuck with all this work by myself again. I was this close to a nervous breakdown yesterday," Smith said, pushing his glasses up the bridge of his nose and giving Ansel a pleading look.The truth was that he had already gotten fond of Ansel and so he always got bored whenever Ansel wasn't around.Just when Ansel was about to open his mouth to speak, secretary Bob walked in with some men behind him.The sudden footsteps caused Ansel and Smith to exchange a brief, knowing glance before turning their attention to
