Winner Takes All

"So... what's my name?"

Jack suddenly stopped walking and turned to look at Cynthia.

The moment Cynthia met Jack's gaze, a hint of panic flashed in Cynthia's eyes. She hurriedly lowered her head. However, her face blushed suddenly.

She was able to make the decision of impersonating his wife when she was certain that the man in front of her had lost his memory, and she was also able to fabricate a memory for this amnesiac man by any means necessary.

But, after all, she was only a young woman who had not married. It was difficult for her to restrain herself when she met the man she had once dreamed of being his wife suddenly and her heart pumped really fast when she looked at him.

However, as she bowed her head, she said something.

"Your name is Greedy Wolf."

"Greedy Wolf?"

Jack said the name for a moment and tried to recall if the name was true. Then, he smiled teasingly, "My name is quite domineering."

"Yes, you are the best man in the snowy plain!"

Cynthia turned sideways and retook Jack's arm as if she was his little wife. Her eyes were full of love and admiration as she looked at him. Then, she said, "The man who can marry me must be the most outstanding man in the snowy plain!"

Jack could sense that Cynthia was looking at her admiringly.

Jack couldn't help but smile faintly.

It could not be denied that Cynthia was really good at making a man happy.

"Let's go. It's too windy outside. Go inside and rest with Amanda. I'll go pack my gifts. Later on, let's go to my house. After you and Amanda have both recovered a bit, I'll take you to meet my father." Cynthia didn't continue to look at Jack with love and admiration for a long time. After saying that, she returned to her room holding Jack's arm.

Amanda had already fallen asleep.

However, when Jack and Cynthia entered the room, they saw Amanda's delicate and frail body trembling faintly. Even in her sleep, a crying sound rang out from her mouth, and tears were flowing down from the corners of her eyes.

"She doesn't want to meet others now."

Cynthia was heartbroken when she looked at Amanda. She had been hating people for asking young kids to serve them. After knowing what had happened to Amanda, she felt even more sympathy for her, "Honey, go stay with Amanda. I'll clean it up."

Jack did not refuse. He nodded his head and went to the side of the bed. He laid down on her side and carefully hugged Amanda towards him. While arranging her blanket, he gently wiped the tears from the corners of Amanda's eyes.

He had actually sensed that Amanda's behaviour was unusual after she had awakened.

People would instinctively be reluctant to talk with others after suffering a succession of unbearably serious mishaps.

Amanda had experienced the massacre of her village, the death of both her parents, and the tragic death of her brother. However, she had become exceptionally calm after she woke up as if her body had instinctively made her lose the ability to be emotional.

It was only in the most relaxed state of being asleep like now that she would be emotional.

As Jack patted her, Amanda's weak body trembled less gradually, and her wailing and sobbing sound also faded. Her breathing became steadier.

The rest of the week.

Jack, Cynthia, and Amanda all stayed in the courtyard rented by the female guard.

The three of them were like a family of three, living a peaceful life.

Every day, Cynthia would tell Jack a story about what happened before he lost his memory. Moreover, the "memories" that she had conceived overnight were in perfect logical order in her opinion. And the result was just as she had expected.

Jack had no doubts about the "memories" she had made up and he had listened to them and believed them.

The relationship between the two became closer and they often stayed together.

As for Amanda, she remained calm and peaceful. However, she would look emotional every night after she had fallen asleep.

Late at night, Jack and Cynthia would always wake up and hug Amanda in their arms and soothe her to sleep.

Both of them were clear that Amanda would need to take a long time to forget the mishaps completely and stop being so depressed. It was a long process and they needed to be perseverant to stay with her. After a long time, the two of them also got used to sleeping in the same bed as Amanda.

However, Cynthia also told Jack that the two of them had just gotten married and they had not yet had sex before, which was something that he could feel Cynthia was feeling a bit resentful.

But as Amanda was with them, the two of them could only postpone the date of them having sex.

The days went by slowly.

Under the careful care of Cynthia, both Jack and Amanda recovered fast.

Jack's injuries were so severe that his recovery wasn't obvious in a short time.

Amanda, however, had undergone a huge change.

Her face was free of chapped wounds, and it looked white and red just like an egg, Her appearance instantly became cute and pretty. With a pair of clear and innocent eyes, she looked cuter and more beautiful.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

In such cold weather, even Jack and Cynthia didn't expect that Amanda had such a good look.

They were living a peaceful life in the small courtyard.

Meanwhile, an entirely different story was happening in the snowy plain.

The 50,000 soldiers of Dragon Cavalry, led by Achilles and the three Golden Guards, were trying to search for Jack in the snowy plain. This caused the dozens of foreign tribes to be frightened and terrified. However, as time passed by.

Achilles and the three Golden Guards became desperate in completing the mission.

"Sergeant White, it's been so long. Our troops which consist of 50000 soldiers had already searched for Chief Guard Hughes over and over again. However, we still can't find him. Could there be?" One of the Golden Guards said in a deep voice with a gloomy expression.

"I don't care whether if we can find him. As long as it's not Polar Night, we must continue to search for him!"

Achilles displayed a firm look and his right hand held the reins of his warhorse subconsciously. He held the reins so tightly until the veins on the back of his hand bulged like earthworms.

As soon as he said the words, another Golden Guard said, "Sergeant White, according to the prediction, tomorrow will be the time for Polar Night. According to the Lord's orders, we have to go back to Thegian City."period

Achilles was stunned for a moment. After he calculated the period until Polar Night occurred, he looked gloomy as if he was reluctant to forfeit the mission.

He knew clearly that if Polar Night occurred, it would be the greatest danger in the snowy plain.

It also posed danger to Thegiant City!

Every year, during Polar Night, the foreign tribes would appear to threaten Thegiant City. This was the time when the soldiers in Thegiant City had to be stressful to defend the city from them.

Last time, the tribes would attack Thegiant City alone. However, this year, Coalition Order was like a powerful heaven-breaking sword in Thegiant City, and Achilles knew clearly that the reason Zenith made the decision was to defend against the joining of forces among the tribes.

In the end, Achilles sighed and ruthlessly gritted his teeth, "Tonight, we will search for him once again. By the time it is dawn tomorrow, we will have marched back to the city. By the moment we reach Thegiant City, Polar Night will almost occur."

"Yes, Sergeant!"

The three Golden Guards answered in unison.‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒‒☐☐☐
