The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine) novel Chapter 1006

The polar night had completely arrived.

The vast shadows of the night fully engulfed the snow plains.

The only thing that remained was the continuous snowy winds.

The extremely severe living environment in the snow plains, which was filled with bone-chilling temperatures, became even more dangerous following the arrival of nightfall.

The thirteen cities of the Royal Palace were luminous.

The thirteen cities’ radiance counter-changed with one another, looking like a bright moon on these huge plains, blossoming with prosperousness that solely belonged to The Hun Royal Palace.

And as the polar night came along.

The patrol unit in the thirteen cities had been increased and became stricter.

Normally, when the night fell, those who usually elude themselves in the shady corners would come out and roam the streets, not to mention now that the polar night had arrived.

This meant that, for a long period of time in the thirteen cities of the Royal Palace, it would be intermingled with all kinds of people, making it even more chaotic and utter disorder.

The increase in patrol units was to sustain the stability of the city during the polar night period.

Of course, it was also to screen for dangers that might have come from outside of the city and lurked inside the city.

When Jack had woken up from his coma, he realized that he was laying on the bed inside a women's room.

"Sir, you have finally wake up!"

Amanda's eyes brighten up. She was the first one to notice that Jack had woke up.

Cynthia, who was working at her work desk, looked up at Jack, hurriedly stood up, and walked over.

"You have finally wake up. You had me and Amanda worried."

"I'm sorry for making you two worried."

Jack sat up calmly, rubbed his temples, and dazedly scanned through the spacious room.

The room was exquisitely decorated, and there was a strange but refreshing fragrance in the air.

Jack looked at Cynthia, "This is your room?"

"It's our room!"

Cynthia gave a sweet smile and stretched her eyebrows, looking extremely charming and gorgeous.

Jack was astonished for a moment, then immediately got back his senses.

"The polar night has descended. Do you want to go out for a walk?"

Cynthia looked at the time. It was still early, therefore things wouldn't get delayed either.

“Okay.”

Jack slowly got up. However, he frowned as he felt the severe pain on his left shoulder and fell back to the floor.

"Let me help you."

Cynthia quickly helped him up. Amanda also clenched her teeth and tried to help.

"What happened after I went into that state?

Jack asked confusingly after he got back up and wore his robe.

"You didn't remember anything after you got into that state? Cynthia looked at Jack in surprise.

Jack nodded, "Yes, I don't remember anything!"

"How could that be?"

Cynthia became even more surprised, "If you don't remember what happened when you got into that state, it means you didn't even know what state that is. But when you were fighting with Wolfgang, you were obviously trying to get into that state."

Jack rubbed his nose and smiled helplessly.

“I may have lost my memories, but that doesn't mean that I'm stupid. Before this, when Amanda and I tried to escape from the slave convoy, it was obviously an extremely dire situation. At that time, I was already half-dead, and if there was no miracle, how could I have survived that ordeal?”

"Moreover, I was trying to protect the children while they escape from the slave convoy leader. And when I woke up again, there was a blank period in my memories."

"Even though I saw Amanda at that time, but obviously they were not capable of saving an adult like me from that dire situation. There was no one else besides me at that time too. Therefore, there is only one possibility. During the period where I have fainted, or should I say, lost my memory, something else must have happened."

Hearing Jack's voice, Cynthia immediately returned to her senses.

Her eyes flickered, then she nodded. She helped Jack walked out, while Jack pulled Amanda's hand.

The three of them left the palace.

They walked on the luminous street, and the snowy wind was still ravaging.

Even though the polar night had descended, the streets were still bustling. As the people from the darker corners took on to the streets, it became even more crowded.

On the streets, some were well-dressed, and some wore ragged clothes, which was easily distinguishable.

Those who were well-dressed walked at a comfortable pace, gazing around light-heartedly.

As for those who wore ragged clothes, they walked stuffily with their heads held low, quickly passing through the crowds at a hasty pace.

Jack looked at the streams of people on the streets. He couldn't help thinking about the time when he and Amanda had first come into The Hun Royal Palace while imprisoned in a cage.

Maybe... these people who were walking hastily on the streets were like those imprisoned children, who were desperately fighting for food and water, as well as the kids who were trying to stay warm at the innermost circle.

To survive in this world where the weakest would always get preyed on by the strongest, people would not hesitate even if they had to turn themselves into evil spirits.

"The living strolls, while the evil spirit rush."

Jack suddenly blurted out.

Cynthia raised her eyebrows and looked at Jack in surprise, "Greedy Wolf, what do you mean by that?"

Jack calmly pointed at the people on the streets, who were wearing ragged clothes and walking hastily, "Before this, I and Amanda were one of them. We had to risk our lives and do everything we can just to survive. But who knew, with a blink of an eye, we could be watching these people peacefully now."

Cynthia moved her lips slightly but didn't respond to Jack's words.

The three of them strolled along the streets slowly as if they were a family of three.

It was getting late after strolling for a while.

“Let’s go back.”

Cynthia leaned her head on Jack's shoulder. She lowered her gaze and looked down towards Amanda, "Amanda, tonight Auntie is going to sleep with Jack. There will be other young lady who will sleep with you, is that okay?"
