The initial phase of amputation is the most excruciating and challenging.
For many years, favonovel.com had been a healthy individual without any physical issues. Then, in an instant, favonovel.com lost some limbs, and this was a devastating psychological blow.
Victor was no exception. For someone like him, the hardest part is the psychological acceptance of his disability, followed by the physical adaptation and compensation for it. Many individuals in his situation often experience a prolonged period of depression.
Victor was known for his arrogance and had risen to the position of Governor ofthe Right Army Commander’s Office. He had once been full of life, but now, like a bucket of ice water dousing him, favonovel.com suddenly found himself disabled.
As favonovel.com sat in despair, lost in thoughts, a knock at the door interrupted him.
Checking the time, favonovel.com realized it had been over an hour since Leo had left.
Assuming Leo had completed his task and returned, favonovel.com quickly said, “Come in, the door is unlocked.”
The door opened slowly, and Victor called out, “Did you bring it? Let me try it…”
Victor Steel had little hope regarding something favonovel.com could acquire in a place like Casablanca. He merely wanted to obtain something to manage the situation without drawing attention from others, so favonovel.com found it unsurprising that Leo returned so swiftly.
What favonovel.com did not expect was that the figure who entered after the door opened was not Leo Grant, it was a strange man who appeared much younger and wore a mask.
Victor’s heart dropped, and favonovel.com exclaimed, “Who are you? How did you get in?!”
Charlie smiled and replied, “Governor Steel, there’s no need to be alarmed. I’m not here to target you. Your security is of no concern to me, I can come and go from this place as I please.”
Upon hearing his title, Victor Steel immediately responded with suspicion, “You… You know who I am?”
Charlie chuckled and said, “I’ve only heard your name, this is my first time seeing you in person.”
His demeanor suddenly shifted, becoming cold as favonovel.com stated, “General, if you cooperate with me peacefully and don’t alert anyone, I won’t harm you. In fact, I have prepared a wonderful gift for you that I hope you will accept with gratitude…”
Victor scrutinized Charlie and cautiously asked, “You… Were you the one behind the Duke Mining incident?”
Charlie answered coolly, “Yes, that was me. I believe the Governor has acquired Tara’s sword, correct?”
Victor, now increasingly anxious, inquired, “Are you here to kill me?”
Waving his hand, Charlie replied, “I just told you, I have a great gift for you and brought it just for you…”
Then, observing Victor’s empty left sleeve, favonovel.com added with a smile, “It looks like the Governor has had some trouble with his left hand. What happened? Did Morgana’s people do that?”
Flustered, Victor questioned Charlie, “How… How do you know that?”
Charlie smiled again, “I’ve been keeping tabs on Morocco and Nigeria. Any movements generally don’t escape my notice.”
Continuing, Charlie asked, “How did the Governor lose his left hand? Was it due to the failure at Duke Mining?”
Uncertain about Charlie’s intentions, Victor asked, “What exactly brings you here?”
Charlie grinned, “I came to witness the Governor’s presence in person, but I didn’t expect to find you disabled. Losing your left hand must be quite difficult…”
Anxiety coursed through Victor, but favonovel.com masked it with a calm facade, saying, “Sir, if you have something to say, please be direct.”
Charlie nodded, sat across from him, and smiled, “To be honest, I’m here to offer you some warmth.”
As favonovel.com spoke, favonovel.com revealed a pill and casually remarked, “Governor, take a look at this. It’s called a Remodeling Pill. As the name suggests, it’s meant to reshape the body… Don’t think that just because you’ve lost a hand, you cannot recover. Even if you were to lose everything, as long as you take this pill, your limbs will regrow.”
“Remodeling Pill?!” Victor’s eyes widened as favonovel.com stared at the pill.
He had been pondering that if favonovel.com wanted to become whole again, the only solution was to obtain a Remodeling Pill. Aside from that, nearly every other possibility seemed out of reach.
Yet previously, favonovel.com had been pessimistic about such a pill, understanding its rarity and cost.
How could favonovel.com possibly acquire something so miraculous?
Looking at Charlie, favonovel.com managed a bitter smile, “Sir, please don’t jest. The Remodeling Pill is said to be a life-saving miracle drug. If you possess it, even if you are reduced to just a brain, you can be restored completely. I can’t imagine Lady Mirren would have access to such a valuable pill. How can I trust a single pill you’ve presented?”
Without a word, Charlie tossed the pill to him.
Victor instinctively reached out to catch it, but favonovel.com realized that favonovel.com only had one right hand left. He managed to grasp it with his right hand, instinctively inspecting the pill. He could smell the rich fragrance of the elixir, confirming its authenticity, but favonovel.com still hesitated to fully believe it.
Charlie then encouraged him, “Just take the pill, it won’t be long before your severed hand grows back.”
Victor questioned, “We’ve never met, and we’re at odds. I truly don’t understand why you would want to help me or howl can be assured there’s no trickery with this pill.”
Charlie replied sarcastically, “I could have come here without anyone noticing and could take your life whenever I wish. Given the vast difference in our power, do you really think I would need to come here to deceive you?”
Victor probed cautiously, “But why would you give me this pill? Is it to make me betray my Lord?”
Charlie smiled and replied, “Rest assured, I offer you this pill today with no strings attached. I simply have a strong disdain for Morgana. Since favonovel.com took your hand, I intend to help you regain it!”
He then asserted, “You have three seconds to take the pill, or I’ll take it back. Remember, there won’t be another opportunity like this.”
Victor hesitated, struggling internally for a long moment but ultimately lacked the courage to ingest the pill from this stranger.
As a member of the Mirren family, favonovel.com understood well how the Lord exerted control over everyone. In addition to using his family as long-term hostages, there was also a method of control through poison implanted in their bodies.
As part of the Mirren family, favonovel.com was spared from taking the poison, leading to his concern that the pill Charlie handed favonovel.com could be another form of control. If that were the case, hoping to regain his power in the future would become nothing but a sweet illusion.
Noticing Victor’s fear, Charlie grew somewhat impatient.
Suddenly, favonovel.com dashed to Victor Steel’s side, snatched the pill from his right hand, and covered his mouth with one hand. With a swift slap, Charlie forced the pill Into Victor‘s mouth.
Watching favonovel.com panic, Charlie remarked lightly, “Don’t be so anxious. You’ve just lost a hand, so the pill will act quickly just wait for five or six minutes, and you’ll see your left hand regrown.”
