Winner Takes All

"What, what did you say?" Panic crept all over Patrick and he started to scratch his ears thinking that he had heard wrongly. Madam Hughes was staring blankly and shook her head in disbelief, "That's impossible, how could that be? That's impossible!"

Since Jack's disappearance, Patrick, the Grand Freemasons, and the Dragon Cavalry tried all their means to look for Jack with wishful thinking that he was still alive.

Now... who could imagine that not only was Jack alive, he had even been bestowed the highest honor by the Huns.

"Jack, my dear Jack..." Patrick grabbed the table with his hands and stood up slowly. His eyes welled up in tears and his face flushed red.

"Sir... sir..." Joseph noticed Patrick's shock and became worried.

"I, I'm fine." Patrick quickly replied as his heartbeat raced and almost jumped out of his chest.

He was overjoyed and elated. However, he kept his composure and then ordered, "Find out the details and find a way to get in contact with Jack!"

Bang!

He slammed down the phone and he shuddered as he started to grin.

The next moment, glorious and celebratory laughter filled the hall.

In the Hun's capital, King Hun's voice was strong and penetrating.

"Glory to the Wolf constellation who bestowed to the Huns a General with no equals, Greedy Wolf! He will lead us Huns to regain and extend our glory!" King Hun pointed to Jack who was riding on the back of the Snow Lion. Jack's eyes sparkled and smiled victoriously.

But the citizens were alarmed and in disbelief. Their anger raged to a peak.

"How could the Huns be reduced to this extent to need an outsider to lead us to conquer the giant City? How could we have an outsider become the son-in-law of our King?"

"We have many strong men in the snow plains, how are we inferior to this outsider?"

"Please reconsider, your Majesty!"

King Hun began to frown when he heard the shouts of displeasure. He instantly clenched his fists so tightly that they trembled.

Cynthia held onto Amanda at one side. They saw the citizen's displeasure reach a crescendo. She spoke just loud enough for Jack to hear, "My man, let the Huns witness your prowess and glory!" Jack immediately knew what he should do, patted the Snow Lion, and tugged his mane. Snow Lion had already been worked up by the crowd's rowdiness. It behaved and controlled itself due to Jack's presence.

But with Jack's gentle pat, it was like the lock had been released.

"Roar!" Snow Lion rushed forward and gave a frightening but majestic roar!

The majestic roar put the fear back into the Huns and they started to shake in fear. Jack rode the Snow Lion and at that moment it appeared that he was a Champion that descended from the heavens. Although the people were dissatisfied, the combined awesomeness of Jack and the Snow Lion made everyone cower in fear.

King Hun and Cynthia proceeded with the ceremony to prevent any further disruptions.

The ceremony was completed swiftly. It ended as quickly as it began.

In fact, the ceremony was considered simple considering Jack's historical triple honor. More importantly, the objective had been achieved. To Cynthia and King Hun, this was the most important conclusion. They could not expect the Huns to readily accept Jack. To King Hun, the situation was too complex for the people to

ver

understand.

After the ceremony, the people started to disperse. The whispers and murmurs continued and the impact of today's events would extend far beyond today...

In the royal palace, Cynthia was

ready to give herself totally to Jack to secure their relationship. Just when Cynthia was about to act, Jack's memories started to flood back. He was gripped with a severe headache and ran out of the palace like a madman.

The Undercover Guard finally had the chance and quickly followed Jack. When Jack's headache eased, the Undercover Guard revealed himself and told Jack his true identity. Jack also told him what he had gone through after his disappearance.

"Greedy Wolf? Jack? Who the hell am I?" Jack was shocked at the revelation. He did not know who to believe and wanted proof of his identity.

When Jack returned to the palace,Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

he became suspicious and wary of Cynthia. His doubts began to

deepen. Thus, Jack looked for an et

opportunity to sneak out of the

Palace. He then met the Undercover Guard and rushed out of

towards the Giant city the city

Once there,

he was able to meet Zenith.

Zenith was described by Cynthia to be their divine enemy from the south. However, Jack found him familiar but was unable to recall anything significant. Zenith was able to tell Jack some of the events after his disappearance.

Jack did not waste any time and continued on his journey home with the undercover guard and Dragon Cavalry following closely behind him.

A couple of days later, Jack reached the villa where Amber was placed under house arrest. Patrick managed to find Amber through intense investigation and informed Jack through the Undercover Guard.

The battle was intense and ended quickly. The resistance at the villa was futile under the professional attack carried out by the Dragon Cavalry.

When Jack saw Amber, he had another intense headache and passed out in Amber's arms.

Jack regained his consciousness a day later. He grabbed Amber into his arms as soon as he saw her. He quickly said to her, "Honey, I remember everything, I finally remember everything!"

"Honey, I love you. I will never allow you to suffer and be frightened, I guarantee!"

They enjoyed each other's company after being apart for such a long time.

Two days later, Jack went to the Hughes residence and with Patrick's efforts, they finally were able to forcibly remove Madam Hughes and regain control of the Hughes family.

When the real Amber appeared, it was easy to remove the fake Amber and expose the mysterious man's plot. The truth was finally out and managed to reveal the sinister plots.

The internal enemies were removed and after some reorganization, Jack returned to the giant city.

Cynthia had capitalized on his amnesia to use him as a tool against Zenith to move southwards. He had to make Cynthia pay for her actions.

Jack and Zenith led the Dragon Cavalry northwards to sweep the plains and clear up the enemies.

Cynthia had a bad feeling after Jack's disappearance. Her fears finally came true! She had singlehandedly cultivated the greatest general of the Huns, her man, and the Hun's eighth hero. But now he had turned into the Hun's greatest nightmare!

That night was the darkest in the Hun's history but it became Jack's greatest honor and legacy. He was able to suppress the Huns and brought everlasting peace to the entire region.

After he brought peace to the region, Jack wasted no time and went home.

He carried Amber and spun around happily, "Honey, let's go on a vacation immediately!"

"Let's go!" Amber nodded and smiled extremely beautifully.
