Sword Master In The Strange World Chapter 40: The cold hand beneath the river.
“In front of you, Jonas!” Earl Armstrong yelled loudly. At this point, he couldn’t maintain his composure any longer. The person in the icy water below was his beloved daughter, and he would willingly sacrifice his own life for Daisy’s if he could. However, jumping into the water now wouldn’t achieve anything. A middle-aged man over forty, like him, couldn’t do much. It would only divert Jonas’s attention. At that point, the chances of saving Daisy would decrease by half.The wind continued to blow, and the boat, unable to withstand the conditions, rocked incessantly, tilting left and right continuously. The people on the boat desperately clung to the boat’s edge. If they let go for a moment, their fate wouldn’t differ from Daisy’s.“Turn left, Jonas, about an arm’s length to your left!” Earl Armstrong yelled. After all, he had been holding Daisy’s hand for a while, preventing her from falling into the water entirely. So he couldn’t let her die now. It would have been a waste of his p
Sword Master In The Strange World Chapter 41: Daisy.
The sword had just struck down when the hand, whether human or ghostly, immediately released it. Daisy’s body began to slowly surface. Jonas held Daisy with one hand, preventing her from sinking any further, and retrieved the sword with the other. In a matter of moments, the sharp sword had transformed back into the appearance of a simple walking stick.“Stay away from these people. If I ever see you again, I won’t be so forgiving,” Jonas threatened, looking down at the water. If he hadn’t been busy rescuing Daisy, he would have removed the mask from the person below to see who they really were. Whatever had been troubling the village for so long had proven to be highly dangerous. But now was not the time. Daisy’s life was the top priority, and if he stayed here any longer, she might succumb to either drowning or hypothermia. Her fragile condition made it essential to prioritize her survival.Jonas swiftly changed direction, swimming towards the shore, one hand securely holding Daisy.

Jonas visited Daisy. On one hand, he was still concerned about Daisy’s health, and on the other hand, he wanted to see what Daisy had to say to him.“Please lead the way, Mrs. Armstrong?” Jonas said.Mrs. Armstrong said little, but she led Jonas to the room.After a brief walk of less than ten minutes, they arrived at their destination. Mrs. Armstrong gently knocked on the door.“Daisy, are you in there?” she asked.“The door’s not locked, you can come in!” Daisy’s voice echoed. Compared to the previous night, her condition had improved significantly.Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong, along with Jonas, entered the room. Jonas’ first impression of the room was that it was small but very tidy. There was a pleasant scent of jasmine in the air, suggesting that Daisy had placed some jasmine flowers in the room.“Daisy, how are you feeling?” Mrs. Armstrong quickly walked to Daisy’s bed and held her hand. Yesterday, when Daisy fell into the freezing water, Mrs. Armstrong cried her eyes out, believing

“Never mind!” Karl sneered, stomping his feet in place. Regardless of what was going on, he wasn’t going alone. While Jonas couldn’t see anything, he had an incredible talent, and if something went wrong, having Jonas around gave him some peace of mind. Not to mention Jonas could fully protect him.“Whether or not I go, I’m just going to be a burden to you dragging around a blind man like me!” Jonas said and turned to step inside the house. He wasn’t very interested in the old lady’s matters, and her words were far from being trustworthy.“No, no, you can’t. You can’t go in;come with me!” Before Jonas could agree, Karl moved quickly, grabbing his hand and pulling him out of the gate.“I told you, come with me!” Karl grumbled, determined to get Jonas to go with him.Faced with Karl’s determination, Jonas could only sigh. He said nothing further, nor did he decline the offer. If he walked away and left Karl here, the man in front of him might just cry. Karl’s outer appearance had nothin

The information that Sandra was the descendant of that noble family quickly spread throughout the village. All the villagers discussed it, and this news became a major topic of conversation for everyone.“So, it turns out it was the spirit of the old lady behind all this. It’s really terrifying.”“I told you all along that these gruesome things couldn’t have been caused by humans. Ever since the incident with Mrs. Laura, I suspected it was something supernatural.”“But it’s unbelievable how a gentle and harmless person could be so devious, even in death. She’s still not willing to forgive us.”The discussions in the village had been ongoing for days without a break. Some people were so frightened that they locked themselves in their homes, placed protective talismans all around, and avoided contact with anyone, fearing the vengeful spirit of Sandra. The situation quickly spiraled into chaos.More people believed the words of the psychic. Even Mrs. Gregory felt quite self-satisfied; sh
Sword Master In The Strange World Chapter 45: These bones should be quite easy to break.
Jonas was annoyed when he recognized Etham’s voice. He and Etham weren’t close, to say the least – they rarely got along, and their previous encounters were far from peaceful. In general, Jonas didn’t want to meet this person. Moreover, Jonas couldn’t figure out why Etham was following him; he feared Etham might be causing trouble or stirring up issues for him. That’s why Jonas quickened his pace to leave Etham behind.Seeing Jonas walk even faster and his shadow growing distant, Etham felt extremely panicked. The road was pitch-black, with no streetlights, and the snowfall never ceased, while the wind howled relentlessly. If another snowstorm occurred as it had before, Etham would be completely alone and likely meet his end. Besides, this village had countless mysterious and malevolent entities, ghosts, and demons. If they found Etham attractive, he would be in grave danger.With these thoughts, Etham broke out in a cold sweat, his hands and feet trembling. He couldn’t afford to lose

Etham could hardly believe his eyes. He stared upwards, overwhelmed by the pain that he couldn’t react to quickly. It was the first time in his life he had experienced such intense physical pain. About thirty seconds later, Etham could finally respond. His hand seemed like it wanted to detach from his body.“Aaaaaaaa!” Etham screamed, squeezing his eyes shut, tears streaming down. Looking at his arm now, it was as if it was about to detach from his body, hanging mid-air.“Aaaaa, someone, come and save me!” Etham, filled with fear, backed away. He didn’t understand why Jonas had done this. Could it be because he rejected Jonas’ advances?“I...I’m telling you, I didn’t expect you to be like this...” Etham wanted to say more, but the pain from his arm was making it impossible for him to speak.“How could I?” Jonas slightly raised an eyebrow, maintaining that sly grin on his face.“I can’t believe it. I really can’t!” Etham cried, tears and mucus streaming down his face.Seeing Etham’s re

“No, I don’t intend to leave here,” Jonas firmly declined Elena’s suggestion. He wouldn’t leave until he had found the truth. Both Mrs. Laura and Karl had treated him well, providing him with food and shelter, and he couldn’t abandon them now.“It’s very dangerous here; you know that, right?” Elena furrowed her brow in disbelief at Jonas’s response. If he had rejected taking her with him, she could understand. However, Jonas was refusing to leave altogether. Why was that? He found this place extremely perilous.“Jonas, I really don’t understand. What could make you want to stay here? It’s impoverished, backward, and dangerous, with constant threats. Have you had a single good night’s sleep since you arrived here?”“You and I are not alike. I have more reasons to stay than to leave,” Jonas said, then turned to leave. Their philosophies, thoughts, and characters differed, and there was no point in engaging further with Elena.“Jonas, Jonas, please reconsider,” Elena quickly chased after

Chapter 135: The end!
Facing Evan and Brendan’s questions, Jonas remained silent saying nothing. He had a strange feeling; normally, whenever Alice appeared, only he could see her. But this time was different; Alice appeared open in front of everyone. This made Jonas suspicious, finally thinking that Alice had some malicious intentions.“Jonas, our system has an issue. Do you want to reset everything?” Without waiting for Jonas to respond, Alice went straight to the point, a smile still on her lips.“System issues? Is there really a problem with the system, or is this some damn scenario of yours?”“The system is indeed having problems. You should reset everything!” Alice repeated her words.Jonas had run out of patience by now. He directly exposed Alice’s true face and what she called the system.“There’s nothing wrong here! Everything is your play. Why did door open earlier? Don’t tell me it opened coincidentally, with no arrangement! Everything, all of it, is your script!” When this door suddenly opened,

Chapter 134: Do you know her? What’s going on?
“It’s... it’s Cuktor!” Etham pointed towards Cuktor, the one who had just dealt a blow to Charlette. All present there looked at Cuktor with wide eyes. His unexpected appearance, standing alongside Jonas and his group, was a shock to them. None of them had ever dreamed of a day when Cuktor and Jonas’ team would stand together on the same battlefield.“No need to look at me with such wide eyes. I’m not here to protect you all. I’m here just to protect my chance to return to my paradise!” Cuktor turned towards Jonas’ group and spoke. The reason he took the risk to come here was singular – to protect Jonas’s eyes. Lucia’s eyes had been elusive for nearly a thousand years; he had even turned Christina’s parents’ house upside down, finding no clues. Now, if Jonas’s eyes fell into Charlette’s hands, any chance of returning to his paradise would be utterly lost.On Charlette’s side, she was shocked that she had been ambushed, and the ambusher was none other than Cuktor, the one who considere

Etham, Evan, Christina, and Mei landed on the ground in a heap. Before them lay an incredibly unfamiliar space.“Darn! Where on earth is this?” Etham said, brushing off the dust on his clothes. Just a second ago, they were still in Christina’s house, and now they found themselves in this strange place.Evan glanced around, shaking his head. This was also his first time in this location. Evan had never heard his grandfather mention this place before.“But don’t you guys think this place is incredibly luxurious?” The one speaking was Christina. Having lived in a luxurious mansion her whole life, there was hardly anything in the world she hadn’t seen. But a place this extravagant was a first for Christina.“Exactly! Look, everything is gold-plated, especially the door frame, which is grand and dazzling! Not to mention crystal, gems, and precious stones. Just counting the cost of craftsmanship and design alone is already an enormous figure! These things are all exquisitely designed,” Evan

“There was one time I saw it in my parents’ room! A painting exactly like this scenery!” Mei exclaimed, surprised. She was sure she had seen it before, in her parents’ study! A painting identical to the forest in front of them.“Mei, are you sure?” Christina leaned down to ask Mei, her eyes filled with both hope and a hint of doubt.“I’m sure.”As soon as Mei said that, three pairs of eyes turned towards each other. Evan, Etham, and Christina - they could be the only hope and opportunity for these three.“Let’s go!”Evan was the first to change direction and run towards Christina’s house. Etham, Christina, and Mei pursued suit. They sprinted with all their might. Christina’s house was where Lucia’s eyes were kept, guarded by Christina’s parents. They were secretive, profound, and held many secrets. What they knew about this forest and its related stories seemed to be certain. For Evan’s group, only by unraveling the secrets of the forest could they find Jonas and Brendan. Time was run

The empty wooden bedspread, Brendan, had disappeared for a while now. Outside, the wind grew stronger with each passing moment, blowing the curtain straight into the empty room.“Brendan is missing!” Evan shouted loudly. In his heart, there was a great deal of anxiety; he didn’t know what was happening and couldn’t guess which force had taken Brendan away. Now they were stuck between Cuktor and the force behind that green-eyed bird. One wrong step could ruin the entire chessboard.“What’s going on? What’s happening?” Etham, one hand covering a yawn, the other hastily putting on a coat, rushed out of his room. He had been sleeping soundly when he heard Evan’s voice. Though he didn’t know what was happening, he came running.Behind Etham were Christina and Mei. Unlike Etham, the two siblings seemed much more alert.“Evan, what’s going on? Why did you say Brendan is missing?” Christina looked at Evan skeptically, clasping her younger sister’s hand.Evan was also quite distressed now; Bre

Chapter 130: Etham, something’s wrong with Jonas!
“I’m sorry, I... I... I was just scared of you!” Brendan trembled incessantly. In reality, he had intended to lie like the others, saying that Charlette was good and beautiful just to get through the situation. However, Brendan couldn’t bring himself to do it. He didn’t come here willingly, nor did he willingly eat those foods. He did all those things out of fear. Furthermore, looking at Jonas gave Brendan the motivation to speak the truth. The girl who claimed to be the queen brought him here for one reason only – to force Jonas to give her his eyes. Since then, she had been providing reasons to persuade Jonas. If Brendan now lied, saying Charlette was a good person, the probability of fooling Jonas would be higher. Brendan knew that Jonas trusted those around him, and the words of those subordinates might not be believed, but Brendan’s words sometimes could sway Jonas. Perhaps that was why Charlette asked Brendan if she was a good person. She only wanted to prove to Jonas that givin

Chapter 129:
Jonas contemplated Charlette. He knew this was the highest price Charlette could offer for this deal. Charlette was not wrong; if he agreed to her request, both he and she would benefit, with him gaining the most. Unfortunately, Jonas had no intention of making this deal with Charlette from the start. The world was not only filled with beautiful landscapes and vibrant colors but also with dark and sordid corners. If he handed over his eyes to Charlette, those dark corners would likely expand. Jonas lived not only for himself but also for others in this world, especially for those he loved. Evan, Etham, Brendan—surely they didn't need protection from the likes of Charlette. Protection traded for the lives and peace of others. He knew that even Selena and Karl at the Nine Springs did not want him to do such a thing."Charlette, I apologize, but I decline this deal."Charlette, who was brimming with confidence just moments ago, jumped in anger. She couldn't believe Jonas would make such

Upon hearing this, Charlette's face turned reddish-purple, and she felt infuriated. She did everything for this world, yet Jonas dared to label her as the villain. She was the queen, the mistress here, and every action she took was for the sake of people as naive as Jonas."Damn it! I am the queen. I treat everyone kindly and generously!" Charlette yelled at Jonas. From the largest to the smallest, Charlette had not encountered anyone as ignorant as Jonas. Clearly, she had welcomed such a wretch with open arms, and he had the audacity to doubt that Charlette was evil. Even his friend Brendan had been warmly received by her. One could question what delicacies Brendan had enjoyed since arriving!"In the end, can't maintain that calm and gentle demeanor?" Jonas teased as he turned his head towards Charlette. He knew Charlette had been dissatisfied with him for a long time. From the beginning until now, she had always been clawing at him to keep herself calm. It seemed that Charlette's na

"Why, feeling shaken, aren't you?" Charlette spoke with a smile, knowing that Jonas would be moved by this condition."What do you want, in the end?""It's simple, Jonas. I want to make a trade with you. You see, you have something I need, and coincidentally, I have something you need."Jonas could vaguely guess what Charlette was referring to. He just couldn't comprehend why, if she wanted it, she didn't just take it directly. Clearly, she had plenty of opportunities to do so. Maybe even now, even if Charlette wanted to take it, he couldn't resist.Charlette approached Jonas, and her small hand extended to delicately touch his face. She traced her fingers up to his eye, seeming to examine it closely."These eyes are truly beautiful. If they fully fulfill their inherent purpose, they will be even more stunning." Charlette spoke with a sinister smile. What she wanted was indeed his eyes, just like Cuktor. Initially, she didn't want to involve herself with Cuktor's influence, but now th
