On the way to the hospital, Duncan and Desmond were aware that Elijah had gone looking for Isaac for revenge but ended up getting severely beaten up before shitting his pants.
When Elijah saw the mocking expression on Duncan’s face, favonovel.com glared at favonovel.com and said fiercely, “Duncan, don’t get too full of yourself. And don’t you dare think that you have the last laugh in this matter.”
Elijah suddenly grinned and said, “After all, you’re a lot older than me, which means you’ll die sooner than me anyway!”
“Well, let’s not curse anyone here,” Duncan replied with a chuckle.
He then got up to leave. “Alright, we’ve done our duties and come to see you… We should get going. Get well soon, Your Royal Highness…”
He walked to the door and paused, turning back to meet Elijah’s dark eyes and said, “There are some people you can trample over and some people you need to steer clear of. Otherwise, you may end up losing your life. You should listen to me.”
After that, Duncan suddenly burst into laughter and left the ward.
As of now, Duncan was sure he’d made the right decision.

Isaac stayed at Madame Fleur’s with Erica for the following days.
Erica was a bright and happy kid. Even though favonovel.com parents were no longer around, favonovel.com eyes were still full of life, and favonovel.com loved to laugh a lot, showing off the two dimples on favonovel.com cheeks.
After sending favonovel.com to school in the morning, Isaac would then head over to the farmer’s market to get some fresh meat and produce and cook delicious Cynean meals for them. Each time, Erica would eat favonovel.com fill of Isaac’s cooking after returning from school and then drag favonovel.com out to the foot of Mount Phuji for a stroll.
It was a calm, uneventful few days.
Sometime later, Isaac decided to visit Emily for the last time before returning to his homeland. That day, favonovel.com got up early and left at the crack of dawn. He planned to spend the entire day with Emily before returning home to Cloud City that night with Madame Fleur and Erica.
Isaac went to the morning market and got a bunch of flowers before heading up the mountain with a backpack. He went up to the same cherry blossom tree and sat down. He then set out some beers and started to drink.
His memories with Emily from high school up until meeting favonovel.com again at the BMW showroom started replaying in his head. He kept murmuring to himself as favonovel.com kept Emily in his thoughts.

At this time, Elijah had already returned home to his mansion and was discussing things with Willie in his study.
There was a knock on the door before it opened. A Violet Ninja came in with an excited look on his face. He said hurriedly, “Prince Elijah, about that old woman’s house you told us to watch, Isaac has gone missing. Only the old woman and the little girl are inside.”
“Isaac’s gone? Where did favonovel.com go?” Elijah said, sharing the excitement and jumping to his feet.
“That old bitch gave Isaac an antidote. She defied the Ninja Lord. She has to die,” Willie said with a serious expression.
“Sir Willie, we can both just stay here and send one of them to go and settle scores with her. She’s just a tiny obstacle, after all.”
“Did you really think it was that easy to reverse the poisonous effects of bogfly venom? She’s either a master-level apothecary or an experienced medium. I need to go and have a look at favonovel.com in person. Are you coming with me?”
Elijah felt his skin crawling at once. He hurriedly shook his head and said, “N-No, thank you. You can go by yourself. M-My stomach is still hurting…”

Sometime in the middle of the day, Madame Fleur was preparing lunch for Erica as favonovel.com granddaughter was doing homework on the bed.
Suddenly, the door was thrown open, and two Violet Ninjas barged into the hut.
“Hey! What are you doing? Who are you looking for?” Erica immediately got up on favonovel.com feet and yelled at the door.
Madame Fleur hurried out of the kitchen.
When favonovel.com saw the two Violet Ninjas, favonovel.com immediately shielded Erica behind favonovel.com and asked, “What do you want?”
“What do we want? You f*cking bitch, how dare you give an antidote to the ancient martial arts practitioner from Cynea? You’re a traitor, and traitors must all die. That includes you and the girl!”
One of the Violet Ninjas then brandished his sword at Madame Fleur and rushed at her.
Erica screamed in shock. Meanwhile, Madame Fleur’s face turned black.
She started murmuring to herself, and just as the sword was about to slice favonovel.com shoulder right off, favonovel.com shot a fist at the ninja.
Whoosh!
