Within the conversation, one was simply listening while the other was giving praise.
Jason originally wanted to change the subject. However, it had an entirely different meaning from Icy’s perspective.
“What a narcissist.” She said with an annoyed voice.
Jason only shrugged his shoulders in response. Yet, what happened made favonovel.com realize that favonovel.com would eventually be recognized if favonovel.com kept staying here. Coincidentally, favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com could leave this place for a while to gather the ingredients and wait for the situation to subside.
He knew that trends and hot topics would be temporary. When the topic’s popularity had declined, nobody would care about it anymore.
Before leaving, favonovel.com summoned Icy and Dustin.
The wounds on Dustin’s face seemed more profound, with that Jason knew that Raphael was a man of his words.
“I got some news. One good and one bad. Which one do you want to hear first?” Jason smiled at both of them.
“Good…”
“Bad…”
They replied simultaneously.
“Then I’ll tell you the good news first.” Jason clapped his hands and interjected them.
“You all will have vacation days. I will be traveling for some time.” Jason smiled.
“What about the bad news?” Icy asked.
“Before I leave, I will assign some assignments for you two. I will inspect it when I return.” Jason grinned.
Icy pouted when favonovel.com realized that it was too good to be true.
Meanwhile, Dustin looked sorrowful. He could usually use the excuse ofwatching over Jason’s business to leave his home. Once Jason was gone, that excuse would not work. By then, favonovel.com doubted if his elder would be satisfied enough just by beating favonovel.com once a day.
“Where are you going? If there’s no one attending to you, I could accompany you.” Dustin smiled at Jason.
“No need. You’re better off staying at home getting beaten!” Jason spoke seriously.
Icy could not help but laugh at the sidelines. She had already figured out Jason’s personality, who was an evil schemer with a scathing mouth.
When Jason had assigned tasks to the both of them, Icy’s smile on favonovel.com face instantly froze. Moreover, Jason had purposely remarked that there would be a ‘surprise’ waiting for them if they had not completed it after his return.
She knew that whatever ‘surprise’ favonovel.com mentioned must not be a good thing.
As for Dustin, favonovel.com felt apathetic. He was already used to being beaten. He would not mind being beaten up more if favonovel.com failed the tasks.
After assigning the task, Jason said his farewells to Madison and left under favonovel.com longing gaze.
Medicinal herbs that could save lives are incomparable to regular herbs. Although Jason had astounding medical abilities, favonovel.com would also face the problem of no right tools at his disposal. Thus, favonovel.com could only personally traveled to find those rare herbs and ingredients. Moreover, favonovel.com had to travel to some desolate places to find it.
Jason knew of numerous places like these, but only one spot nearest to favonovel.com was Asclepius’ Shelf. It was a place that was filled with many myths and legends, and it also retained its primitive appearance in most of its areas.
In the ancient ages, when Asclepius had sampled all herbs, many of those came from the retroactively known place as Asclepius’ Shelf. It was also how it earned its name.
It was a herd paradise.
Jason had visited more than once in the ancient ages, where human presence was rare in the world. He had even found numerous young seedlings of rare and valuable herbs.
***
By night, Jason had already reached the outer rims of Asclepius’ Shelf.
Since the area was beneficial to the country’s advancement, the outer perimeter of Asclepius’ Shelf was developed as a tourism attraction.
Of course, it was only composed of a part of the landmass of Asclepius’ Shelf. Meanwhile, all the rare herbs grew within the deepest reaches of Asclepius’ Shelf. It was the destination that Jason had intended to go to, which was deemed unapproachable by everyone else.
It was considered very difficult to reach the location. However, it was a piece of cake for Jason. It was because that favonovel.com had already traveled there multiple times.
When the sun had dawned, Jason finished his breakfast and directly tracked into the hill with his backpack. His journey of gathering herbs had begun.
