16 Silver Potion

Zhen stopped suddenly as they were walking before speaking, "You should go yourself from here. Oh... take this with you too." He took out a small ceramic bottle and passed it to me.

Is it poison? Am I going to die like this? My fate!!

Zhen stared at me and said while chuckling, "It's not poison. How could I dare to kill you? Can I ask you one question?"

I nodded my head.

He continued, "How did you meet him? I mean you are not that good. There are many beautiful maidens in this kingdom. It's weird that you entered his eyes."

Well, that's the question I have yet to obtain answers to. You should ask that maniac. I don't remember him yet he wants to kill me. That psycho!!

"You should walk faster, big brother has nasty temper. He gets angry easily at anyone who comes late," he said, pushing me towards a bamboo gate before vanishing in thin air.

I don't know if I am a witch or not, but this guy working under the dark knight sure has got witch powers.

I walked towards the balcony however upon looking around, I saw no one.

He himself is late and he will be angry if I am late!

I sat in silence.

When the moonlight shone over the area I was sitting, I felt a presence behind me.

I turned around, only to see him standing in the air, not saying anything and emitting that cold aura.

That scared the shit out of me. How can I not feel his presence? Maybe he hid in dark. Surely his dark clothes camouflage him better like a shadow during the night.

He transformed into Xiao Lu's body and walked towards me, "Don't be afraid. I am right here. Relax." he said caressing my forehead.

I realized I was furrowing this whole time.

Who won't be afraid, knowing they will die soon. If you care that much then let go of me! You tyrant!

I didn't dare to say that in front of him. I was afraid he would attack me. It hurt like hell. I didn't know how I endured that pain last time, just thinking about it makes my body shiver.

I gulped down the saliva that had gathered at the entrance of my throat.

He looked at me with concerned eyes while playing with my hair, "You haven't fully healed yet?" he questioned me.

I still couldn't answer him. I began thinking about my time in the jungle.

How happy was I there? It's you who was stupid to leave that place. Now I am going to die from this maniac man claiming that I harmed him.

Seeing me standing like statue he patted me on my back.

This frivolous stranger, how dare you to touch me?

"Have you brought the Silver Potion?" he asked still holding me.

Had this person gone insane, weren't they the ones who stole it? Why is he asking me?

He looked down at me and said, "Didn't Zhen give it to you?"

Oh, so that was the Silver Potion.

I handed him the silver potion, but he refused it, "It's for you."

"What?" I asked him.

"Didn't I say that I will get your memories back?" he asked with an innocent look.

"I don't want to get my memories back. Why must you be so concerned about it?" I replied, glaring at him.

"It seems your habits of forgetting things have worsened day by day. It's fine since you have aged a lot."

He walked towards the balcony and stared at the sky.

"Haven't I promised you that I will kill you with your memories? Hurry up and drink that silver potion so I can kill you sooner."

He turned and looked me with an icy gaze.
