“What do you mean?”
Hearing Ark's words, Lara immediately raised her eyebrows. The sudden appearance of the young man had already shocked him. Not to mention what he said.
‘Is he angry? Does he know what we planned before? Coming to get revenge?’
Lara hurriedly shook her head. Although he had plans to utilize the Sword of Sufferings, it was simply not done. So, the chances of Ark coming to retaliate were very low.
What's more, with the ability to infiltrate. Killing an unconscious Chris must have been. But the young man did not kill him. That meant, the head of that Sword of Sufferings had another reason.
Looking at the silent Ark, Lara felt somewhat anxious. Really don't understand what he wants.
“Isn't that clear?” Ark shrugged his shoulders. “Come to help your husband.”
Hearing Ark's words, Lara's eyes widened. He had absolutely not expected to get such an answer from the young man's mouth. Forcing herself not to get too excited, the woman said.
“Is what you said true? Can you really save Chris?”
Looking at Lara who could not hold back her spirit, Ark nodded lightly. The young man then made a gesture for the woman to calm down.
“Of course, I can help your husband. However, it's not all free.”
Ark's reply instantly made Lara calmer. Staring at the cold young man in front of him, the woman's expression turned even more serious.
“What do you want instead? Food sources? The materials we collected?”
“None of what you think.”
Ark shook his head. Gazing right into Lara's eyes, the young man then said.
“I want some things. So, please consider carefully whether you want to approve it or not.”
“Say.” Lara replied firmly.
“First of all I will clarify. The Golden Maple Group and the Sword of Sufferings did not have the alliance relationship that people thought they had. Our relationship is limited to sellers and buyers, nothing more.
In addition, you should know that Jay's position is just a false position with no real power. He's in charge of himself, so it's best not to try to play around with fire if you don't want to get hurt (trying to take advantage of Jay's position to the benefit of the Golden Maple Group)
As for my request it is easier. Just stay away from Sword of Sufferings and do not disturb us.”
Hearing Ark's words, Lara's hands clenched tightly. Although the young man's speech was polite, it clearly contained a trace of contempt. Clearly not putting Chris, Lara, and the Golden Maple Group in his eyes.
Feeling the humiliation made Lara angry. However, the woman did not dare to speak as originally because her words could have suddenly changed the outcome of the negotiation.
“Golden Maple Group has absolutely no intention of interfering with Sword of Sufferings.”
Hearing that, Ark immediately replied in a flat tone.
“Don't think I don't know what people like you think. Yes ... it's just a warning. Completely keep the promise or not, it's up to you guys.”
After saying that, Ark immediately took out a small glass bottle with a light green liquid inside.
Seeing that, Lara was about to say something, but Ark immediately gestured for silence. The young man then said.
“Close door. See calmly, and do not try to call others.”
After saying that, Ark instantly opened Chris' mouth and forced him to drink the potion.
Looking at the scene, the hesitant Lara could only clench her hands tightly. He can only hope that everything is okay because Ark is still Jay's best friend. Although somewhat dubious, but the possibility of hurting Chris is smaller.
Actually Lara herself was worried. However, there was absolutely no development and Chris' health deteriorated. So, in the end he could only bet.
Waiting for some time, Chris' face seemed to be getting pale. This was not separated from Lara's vision.
“Chris!”
Before approaching, Ark suddenly grabbed the back of his neck and threw him onto the sofa. Completely dispose of it randomly no matter if it is male or female, old or young.
“I told you to sit quietly and just look.”
Ignoring the angry Lara, Ark focused more on Chris who seemed to have trouble breathing.
A while later, the middle-aged man suddenly opened his eyes and sat on his bed holding his neck.
Ark then patted lightly behind Chris' neck. At that moment, the man immediately vomited.
A fishy and disgusting smell of acid mixed with black blood clots instantly filled the room.
Seeing the unconscious Chris, Lara was very surprised. Before he could speak, Ark who finished wearing his mask immediately interrupted.
“Do not let him eat anything for one day. Let him drink warm water.
In this time, his stomach will feel uncomfortable and he will often defecate. But that's not at all something to worry about. Just remember, do not eat before 24 hours.
After that, let him eat the porridge twice a day and drink the concoction that I leave 1 time a day before going to bed. There were only 3 bottles of potion and it all had to be consumed. So do not mess around if you want his health to fully recover.”
After saying that, Ark placed three small bottles of dark green-colored potions on the table.
Before Chris fully regained his senses and Lara said something, the young man's figure suddenly disappeared. The woman immediately searched around the room. But in the end, I found nothing.
It was like seeing a ghost. They just appear and disappear without leaving anything behind.
Moments later, Chris who finished vomiting and regained his consciousness glanced back at Lara. Wiping his mouth, the man asked in a puzzled tone.
“What really happened?”
Hearing the question from her husband, Lara let out a long sigh. After a bit of calm, the woman finally said.
“Clean this mess first. I'll explain everything later.”
***
About twenty minutes later.
On the roof of the building not far from the headquarters of the Golden Maple Group, Aisha propped up her chin. I look bored for doing nothing.
Meanwhile, Angelica who was not too used to constantly kept a close eye on the surroundings closely. Continuing to ensure their whereabouts was unknown to the people from the Golden Maple Group who were patrolling.
“Have you guys been waiting a long time?”
Hearing the voice that suddenly appeared, Aisha and Angelica were shocked. Looking at the source of the voice, they saw the figure of Ark that just appeared.
Looking at Ark who was wearing a mask like a bird's beak, wearing a black robe, and most strikingly .. a three-legged golden frog who was sitting lazily over his left shoulder.
“You completely disappeared and appeared easily like a ghost, Ark. That's an interesting ability. Help me get the miracle root that has such an effect.”
Aisha said with a lazy expression on her face. Seeing Ark shrug his shoulders, he continued.
“Omong-by the way, where will we go after this?”
Hearing the question, Ark looked in a certain direction.
“Of course go to the next TKP.”
