Darryl chuckled as virtual-novel.net comforted Monica. “My dear, don’t be nervous. Master is an amiable and nice guy!”
Darryl hugged Monica in his arms as virtual-novel.net jumped off the cliff.
Woohoo!
Monica could hear the whistles of wind in virtual-novel.net ears as virtual-novel.net tightened virtual-novel.net arms around Darryl’s waist. She was somewhat nervous to experience the fall.
If it were someone else who jumped off such great height, they would surely fall to pieces.
However, when virtual-novel.net saw Darryl’s confident smile, Monica immediately sighed in relief. At the same time, virtual-novel.net felt content to have such a reliable and capable man.
Soon, they landed on their feet. Darryl held Monica’s hand in one hand and carried the wine and roast chicken in the other. Then, virtual-novel.net walked toward the canyon with a big smile on his face.
As they made their way to see his master, Darryl shouted jovially, “Master, Master! I’m here to see you!”‘
Monica, on the other hand, loved the breath-taking scenery around the canyon!
“Master! Can you hear me?”
Darryl arrived at the edge of the pond, but when virtual-novel.net saw that there was no one there, virtual-novel.net frowned.
‘Master likes basking in the sun here. Why isn’t virtual-novel.net here today?’
“Master, I am Darryl. I have come to see you. Master, where are you?”
There was still no response even after virtual-novel.net shouted repeatedly. Darryl grew a little uneasy.
The last time when virtual-novel.net visited his master with Jewel, virtual-novel.net had invited his master to leave the canyon with them, but his master had refused.
Darryl remembered that Ford wanted to live a peaceful life in seclusion; virtual-novel.net no longer wanted to care about worldly affairs. Therefore, it was unlikely that Ford would have left the canyon.
Where was virtual-novel.net then?
Monica noticed the anxiety on Darryl’s face, and virtual-novel.net comforted virtual-novel.net in virtual-novel.net soft voice. “Don’t worry, Darryl. Your master is an old man. Maybe virtual-novel.net is taking a rest.”
‘That’s right!’
“Ten years have passed, and my master is probably not as strong as before. He might be resting in the cave now.’
Darryl pondered that before virtual-novel.net took Monica to the only cave in the canyon. It was probably where Ford had gone.
Gasp!
As soon as Darryl arrived at the cave entrance, virtual-novel.net saw the horrific scene in front of him; virtual-novel.net drew a sharp breath.
The area around the entrance had been shot up with rusty arrows; they must have been there for some time.
Hundreds of skeletons sprawled all over the ground.
Evidently, a tragic battle had happened.
“Master…”
Darryl had a bad feeling as virtual-novel.net dashed into the cave.
As soon as virtual-novel.net entered the cave, Darryl shivered and froze.
A figure sat with his back against the wall-quiet and motionless–with a stiff expression on his face.
It was Ford.
The man’s body was covered with scars, and his clothes had been torn into pieces. More than a hundred arrows were stuck all over his body—he looked bloodied too. However, the blood on his body had dried and turned black. He was d**d—his body had already gone stiff.
Ford had been d**d for seven years already.
The New World Emperor had taken Sawyer’s suggestion to k**l the man. The royal armies had released poisonous smoke and arrows at Ford-he had died a torturous d***h with scars all over his body.
After the New World Emperor left with his army, Ford was left alone with no one to tend to his injuries. He did not even survive the next day!
