Chapter 22- Witch Lotus Forest
It was Impossible for her not to notice it, If it was in something she ate or more and she was sure she only drank water.
There were only a few ways this would happen. Either by air, water, touch or food which she had eaten.
She kept on racking her brain. She was getting dizzy from the fall, her vision slowly darkened. The last thing she remembered was her body plunging straight into the river which was abnormally cold.
She tried circulating the little bit of power in her body to form a cocoon.
...
He was seriously poisoned and was also injured. He needed to escape. He prayed to meet someone who could help him.
He had been poisoned since he was a child. The poison would always act on May 18. It would torture him for five days before it recedes on its own.
He had come from a different world through the crack located at the southern world gate located at the Deathly plains.
His frown deepened as he walked farther into the dangerous forest. This is one of the dangerous places in the world but it is also unique for 3 things.
The soul retrieving flower which is used for the soul controlling stone, the demonic flower, its used for the nirvana stone, which grows side by side with the clearance lotus flower and then the ice pith which is located at the bottom of the river. It also allows the growth of the mystic lotus flower.
This place is the territory of the witches and also a forbidden area, to enter and leave here, one must be a witch or they would suffer from the poisonous fog or other poisonous creatures that live here.
He needs a little amount of ice pith and a clearance lotus flower.
He kept on dragging his weak, frail and poisoned body towards the river but what he saw stunned him.
A girl who should be of age 23 or 24 was at the shore of the river.
Normally, no one can rest at the shore of the river, except they don't want their lives.
He felt a sense of familiarity from her but he wasn't sure from where they had met.
He carried her, with the last bit of strength he had. They had not gone too far from the river when she stirred.
Uh
A slight moan escaped her red luscious lips, making him stiff.
She woke up. She tilted her head to the side, what she saw stunned her. A man's face was magnified before her, her eyes widened before she could speak.
Blurgh!
She vomited some water which she had swallowed. She did not bother with the man as she started circulating her power which had started working. She was overjoyed, when she heard a painful moan.
The moan was coming from the man who had just saved her.
She rushed towards him, his face was red and terribly hot.
She placed her two index fingers on his wrist as she checked his pulse.
She did not know if to call it bad luck or….
She had met two people who were dangerously poisoned.
"where are we now" she asked him as she tried to distract him from the pain as she suppressed his poison.
"The Witch Lotus forest" he answered with a hoarse voice when he noticed his poison was receding.
He understood that she wanted to distract him from the pain.
When she heard his words, shock was written on her face.
He calmly raised his eyebrows when he noticed her shock, it seems like she did not even know how she got here.
She could be said to have the powers of 3 kingdoms at this moment. She has yet to get the Vampire orb. She could be considered half a witch plus she had always practiced her powers to the extent she would sneak into the witches kingdom at various times and collect some of their scrolls. Sometimes… Cough… she would even steal some. After reading, she would return it.
She was an all-rounder.
She immediately turned herself into a half witch.
When she was done suppressing the poison, it was time to ask some questions.
"How are you able to survive with this lingering poisonous fog" he calmly raised his eyebrows before replying.
"Am using a treasure"
"oh" it seemed that this woman was different as well as familiar.
"We should not be too far from the ice pith river"
She was still thinking on how to treat him, before she heard a puzzling question.
"Have we met before?" he asked
"I don't even know your name, how should I know if we have met before" she squinted her eyes after she said that.
She went closer to him, her eyes alternated between Cyan blue and Emerald green, she sniffed him.
When he noticed her coming closer, he was stunned and his body turned stiff but when her eyes began alternating between two different colours. He felt that she was dangerous, he wanted to push her away but she was sniffing his body.
Her eye color returned to cyan blue. The way she looked at him was strange.
"your not from this world, are you?" he was shocked. No one could tell he was not from this world, she was the first.
He noticed that this woman was also strange. He had been in this world since he was 18 years old and no one had noticed him plus he had been building his business empire which was now able to stand above the Wolf kingdom king business empire. Most people would respect him once they saw him, even the king's of the four kingdoms would respect him.
"No, how do you know?" he asked, trying to prove.
"I visit various worlds during my leisure, your not from any of the worlds I've been to" she said calmly.
A glint flashed through his eyes when he heard that.
"Am Jason Robert, and you are?" she looks at him before speaking
"Am Luna, princess of the Wolf kingdom"
A surprised flashed through his eyes, he suddenly remembered where he had met her. She was the same person who had saved him when he first entered this world and also helped him to find a way to be able to pass freely between the two worlds.
He would love to marry her but his heart was already with another. It couldn't fit another person.
"Don't you remember me? The guy you helped when you were 15"
"If my guess is right, you were adventuring during that period" he said as he waited calmly for her answer or reaction
