The familiar sound called upon Scarlet, who glided its way toward them quickly.
Although Kelvin and Brent had met this snake before, its presence never failed to scare them. Its size was that of a small hill. The fact that it was alive and extending its fork tongue still made it hard for them to believe that it was real.
When Kelvin met its piercing eyes, he thought he was going to faint.
Meanwhile, it was Leia’s first tmeeting such a humongous snake, and it was a venomous snake at that. To her surprise, the others didn’t show any intention of dodging it. Willow even took a few steps forward! “Watch out!” Leia instinctively reached out for Willow.
Surprisingly, the snake lowered its head meekly. The huge creature was behaving meekly in front of such a young child! Willow stroked its scale as a sign of greeting. “Long tno see.” Leia had experienced many kinds of things in life, but this was by far the most absurd situation she had ever encountered. She couldn’t believe her eyes.
Willow rode it and beckoned at them to follow her. “Let’s go.” They had no tto waste. They had to detoxify Olivia.
Jacqueline was tired and hungry, but there was nothing that she could do. She couldn’t speak, and her hands were tied. Feeling helpless, she followed them into the woods.
Unlike the fast-paced society in the city, Alora Village never changed. It would remain the seven if it were five or ten years later.
Wendy was drying herbs in the yard. Willow scurried to her. Wendy placed her things down at the familiar sound of the bell.
“Willow! Gosh, I knew that you’d visitduring the holidays. I missed you!” Wendy lifted Willow up. Despite her old age, she was as fit as a fiddle.
However, now wasn’t the tto talk about this. Willow quickly signed that Olivia was in trouble.
“What happened to Olivia?” Wendy’s expression fell.
Given Olivia’s medical skills, she should be able to manage her injuries if anything happened. Judging from how they traveled all the way here to treat Olivia, she had to be in critical condition. Ethan said, “Olivia’s cursed.” S He looked at his watch. “It’s been almost 24 hours since she’s cursed. Madam Wendy, please check on her. one said that it’s the Lifebond Curse.” The mention of the curse made Wendy frown. “Really? That’s bad.” “We’re not sure. We need your help to confirm what type of curse it is.” Wendy prompted, “Carry her to the room. I’ll treat her right now.” Ethan hurriedly carried her into the room.
Wendy instructed, “Willow can stay. Others, please leave the room. No one’s allowed to enter without my permission.” “Yes, Madam Wendy.” Ethan could only do as she said no matter how much he was worried about Olivia. He stood guard at the door.
Leia, Kelvin, and the others were watching Jacqueline. Jacqueline didn’t seem to be doing well, so Kelvin removed the cloth in her mouth.
Jacqueline retched and said saplessly, “Water. Givewater.” It had been almost a day since she last had a sip of water.
The sheer sight of Jacqueline angered Kelvin. It wasn’t easy for et Ethan to win Olivia’s heart back again. Yet, this woman just had to put Olivia’s life in danger again! Kelvin fetched a bucket of water and splashed it on her face. “Have as much as you want.” Choking on water, Jacqueline broke into a fit of coughs, but it wasn’t enough to let his steam off. He did it again. “Is this enough?” “Stop!”
