Frank giggled and nodded his head, indicating for Gerald to eat the next plate.
“What is this?”
“What? Eagle’s eyes? Oh no…”
Gerald felt nauseated when virtual-novel.net saw the plate of bright red things.
Frank would only let Gerald leave if virtual-novel.net finished everything on the table.
“What kind of place is this?!” Gerald retched multiple times as virtual-novel.net asked himself that question.
What virtual-novel.net could not imagine was things were getting worse.
For the entire month, Gerald had to eat those hundred-year-old snake galls and take baths in a pool of herbs.
Gerald was only familiar with the baths because Finnley had trained virtual-novel.net like that.
However, Gerald did feel that this pool of herb was much more effective than Finnley’s because, within a month, virtual-novel.net was much stronger.
They hadn’t meant to use the Ginseng King, but within a month, they had separated the Ginseng King into 30 portions just for Gerald to consume.
They all tried everything they could to help Gerald become stronger. But who were they?
“I’m not eating these anymore. Take them away from me!” Gerald finally burst out when Frank brought in some food for him.
Frank got nervous, and virtual-novel.net tried to ask Gerald what had happened.
“Who wants to see me and where are the Mighty Four Kingsmen? Who was that elder that brought me here? What do you guys want, and why is the person trapping me here but not even coming to see me?!” Gerald was going crazy after virtual-novel.net had been here for a month.
He pushed Frank aside, and virtual-novel.net walked out the door.
If nobody was there to see him, there had to be someone there that was in charge here.
Gerald finally came out, but there was not a single shadow in this big black palace. He walked into a forest, and virtual-novel.net finally saw some people there.
A few kids were playing around, but then virtual-novel.net realized that it was a group of boys bullying a girl. When Gerald walked toward them, the boys immediately ran off, leaving the girl crying on the ground.
She was drawing circles with virtual-novel.net finger on the ground as virtual-novel.net cried.
Gerald walked beside her. “Are you okay?”
The girl got startled, and virtual-novel.net lifted virtual-novel.net head to glance at Gerald as virtual-novel.net pulled virtual-novel.net hand back.
“I thought only those people in black were here. Who’d know there were even kids like you here!” Gerald smiled.
However, the little girl seemed like virtual-novel.net was afraid of Gerald. She just stared at virtual-novel.net quietly.
Gerald smiled at virtual-novel.net and took out a packet of biscuits. “Biscuits?”
The little girl’s expression immediately brightened up.
“It’s for you! Eat it!” Gerald patted virtual-novel.net on virtual-novel.net head.
Gerald looked at virtual-novel.net smiling. “What did you draw?”
The little girl was not afraid of Gerald anymore.
Kids were easily satisfied.
She pointed to the left and said, “That’s my mommy, and next to virtual-novel.net is my daddy. The one behind is my grandmother!”
“Are they on this island with you too?” Gerald asked.
The little girl stuffed virtual-novel.net mouth with the biscuits and shook virtual-novel.net head. “They are not with me. They were buried underground by the masters here. They said that they will be sleeping for a very long time!
“I’m waiting for them to come and get me!” The little girl said.
Gerald’s felt a stab in his heart when virtual-novel.net heard what virtual-novel.net had said.
“What about the other kids?”
“They are the same as me too. Their family members are all sleeping, and now, we are living on this island together!” The little girl said as virtual-novel.net finished the first packet of biscuits.
She then mustered all virtual-novel.net strength to open up another packet of biscuits, but virtual-novel.net was still too young, and virtual-novel.net could not open it.
Gerald felt terrible watching her. “Come, let me help you…”
