The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine)

Chapter 973 What’s Dragon Cavalry Searching for?

As the children moved around, there was some confusion inside the cage.

As soon as Amanda got close to Jack Hughes with the cover of the surrounding children, she was able

to stuff half a piece of bun which was taken from her bosom into Jack’s mouth quickly.

“Amanda …”

The expression of a boy changed as he was going to stop her.

However, it was still late.

“Hee hee …”

Amanda raised her head and looked at the boy with a smile. Her eyes curved into crescents, “No

more.”

As she spoke, she even stretched her hands.

The boy was annoyed, then he shook his head and gave a pat on her hands.

After he looked around and made sure that no one was paying attention to him, he took out half a piece

of bun quietly and stuffed it directly into her arms.

“I’ll give you this half piece, but don’t give it to him again.”

The boy admonished her.

That piece of bun was stolen by him when the people of caravan didn’t notice him. He divided the bun

into two, half for himself and half for his sister.

Her nose wrinkled as she wanted to take the bun out of her arms.

She knew clearly that he would have nothing left to eat if she took the half piece of bun.

However, the boy touched her head and shook his head, “I’m not hungry, you keep it well.”

She nodded.

When the boy moved, she secretly took the bun out and tucked it inside the waistband of his brother’s

beast robe carefully.

The group of children was playing around and her movements were light.

Thus, the boy didn’t realize it.

The caravan marched on in the blizzard.

As the children clustered together, Jack who was sitting unconscious in the middle gradually getting

warmer.

After a long time, his eyelids shivered and he slowly opened his eyes, “Am I… dead?”

He glanced around him slowly with his blank eyes.

However, a voice that was surprising rang out in his ears, “You’ve finally woken up. You’re not dead.

You’re still alive!”

Jack twisted his head and looked at Amanda beside him. Her big and clear eyes made him to be dazed

for a while.

“Hum, if it wasn’t because my sister is kind-hearted, you would have frozen to death and starved to

death.”

On the other side, another boy’s voice rang out.

Jack slowly turned his head and looked at the boy who sat behind him and looked indifferent.

Then, he looked around at those pitiful children who were trembling due to coldness and he was in a

trance.

He caught a glimpse at the cage he was in and the people of caravan outside.

His gaze fell back to the little girl, “You saved me?”

“Hi, my name is Amanda.”

She introduced herself and then said, “The men of this caravan had found you and intended to sell you

into slavery. I just begged my brother and all of them to gather around you and keep you warm.”

“Keep warm …”

He looked up at the blizzard and his heart ached slightly.

The wind was bitterly cold and the snow was pouring down heavily on the snowy plains.

Hypothermia would absolutely cause death!

However, these children had endured the coldness to save his life.

“Don’t rejoice too soon. Even if you survive, you’ll be sold into slavery as slaves are the same as

animals here.”

The boy said indifferently, “You’ve to be prepared for that.”

“Slaves …”

Jack frowned but he didn’t act aggressively.

He subconsciously put his hand on the ground and tried to grab his sword, but he didn’t grab anything.

He mocked himself and the corners of his mouth lifted as he felt somewhat helpless.

Yes, he was already trapped in a cage. How could he still have a sword to protect himself?

Amanda beside him asked, “What’s your name?”

After he heard this, he looked at Amanda while the boy looked at him too.

The rest of the children looked at him too.

He was the only adult in the cage after all!

However, what Jack said made everyone to stare.

He shook his head, “I don’t know what my name is and I don’t remember anything now.”

As he said, he even pointed at his temple.

“You don’t remember?”

Amanda’s big and clear eyes were full of confusion.

The boy reacted and explained to her, “What’s a mess, picking a fool with amnesia.”

“Brother …”

She gave the boy a scornful look.

He deflated his mouth, stopped paying attention to Jack and looking elsewhere.

To him, he couldn’t have too much interest in Jack.

If his sister hadn’t insisted, he wouldn’t have bothered.

The children around him averted their eyes as most of them had the same idea as the boy.

It was really hard for them to pay much attention to a stranger as these children were just traumatized

by the horror of the village’s annihilation.

The fear of being sold into slavery haunted each child.

“It’s okay. You just lose your memory temporarily. It’s good that you’re alive.”

She patted his shoulder and comforted him like a young adult.

“Um, thank you.”

He nodded. Although he had regained consciousness, his body was still extremely weak.

The only change was that he was no longer so hungry as he felt full and had some strength.

He sat cross-legged in the cage and closed his eyes again.

He had to let himself recover as soon as he could.

Hence, he wouldn’t need to sit in the middle and let all the children to keep him warm.

The reason why he closed his eyes was not only to repose, but also couldn’t bear to see the children

around him who were pitiful and shivering.

Even though he had lost his memory, it didn’t mean that he had lost his conscience.

He hadn’t lost his judgement of good and bad human nature, and other perceptions and emotions.

Amanda knew that he needed to rest, so she didn’t disturb him anymore, but turned around, gathered a

few children beside her together and whispered, “All got closer a bit and hug me. We’ll swap places

later on when my brother didn’t notice.”

They nodded and stayed close to her.

On the other side, the boy took a look and sighed resignedly.

In fact, such a scene had happened many times along the way after they had been trapped in the cage.

Being the elder brother, he only wanted to protect his sister. Her kindness also left him helpless.

The only good thing he saw was that the children in this cage were in a better state than the children in

the other two cages.

Even a corpse had been discarded before from one of the other two cages.

With this contrast, the boy could only turn a blind eye to what Amanda was doing.

At the front of the caravan, “Leader, that guy has woken up,” said someone.

The companion who had thrown him into the cage before followed the leader with a little scornful

expression.

“What? Are you scared that he’ll avenge?” This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

The leader gave his companion a disdainful glance and laughed, “Don’t worry. A man who almost died

is still a lamb to the slaughter even if he wakes up. You just have to listen to me. Give him less water

and food so that he doesn’t die. Even if he is Zenith Harol of Thegiant City, he is definitely unable to

revolt.”

“What you’ve said is right!”

This man nodded with a smile, then wiped the snow off his head and said, “But something seems to

have happened on the snowy plains. What were the Dragon Cavalry looking for when we came over

earlier and met them. Is there really going to have a war again?”
