Ancient Tears BloodLine

10 minutes later,

Small sweat beads dripped from my forehead. I thought that the healing element would eliminate the black dots. But the healing is slower compared to the spreading of the black dots all over my body.

When I found myself helpless. I decided to contact Jonathan. I opened my eyes and made a call to him.

The connection was established the next second. But he gave me a surprise. 

Jonathan will be here in 5 seconds.

"What is he doing here?" I muttered to myself before leaving the practice room. 

Then I walked toward the door.

Creak~

I opened the door and the next second I saw Jonathan\'s face. "Thank goodness, you are here," I said.

Jonathan\'s expression turned serious looking at Zack. He asked, "What happened to you?"

After saying that, he walked into the room.

I closed the door before starting to explain what happened to my body. Especially the appearance of black dots all over the inner organs.

At first, Jonathan\'s expression was calm. But after hearing he instantly appeared in front of Zack and started checking his body.

Seeing Jonathan\'s actions. I didn\'t stop him and let him observe the poison.

10 seconds later,

I asked, "Do you recognize the thing?" 

Jonathan nodded before taking his hand off. His heart was boiling in anger. The black dots are colorless poison. 

It\'s a rare poison. It was normally used to kill Advanced rank warriors. But someone dared to poison Zack with these cruel methods.

"Did you know who did it?" Jonathan asked. At the same time, he is thinking about the cure.

"I believe it happened during the duel," I answered.

Like the sudden realization. Jonathan\'s eyes lit up with surprise. He remembered Carlos\' mumbling. That person was sure that something bad was going to happen to Zack.

Everything will come to light once he starts the interrogation. But before that, he needs to suppress the poison. He didn\'t have the antidote right now. But he knows who has it. 

This colorless poison and its antidote is quietly popular among the influential circle. So he is going to make a trip.

He then takes out a high-grade healing pill from the storage ring. This healing pill was kept for emergency use. This pill works against the majority of poison. 

Except in some rare cases such as colorless pills. He didn\'t expect someone to know this rare poison.

Jonathan decided to up his guard. Then he handed over the healing pill to Zack.

"This pill will help you suppress the black dots. They won\'t spread for at least a few hours. In the meantime, I will find the real antidote for this poison," Jonathan said.

I felt a huge weight lifted off my shoulder. If Jonathan recognizes the black dots. Then he must know the solution as well.

"Alright, I\'m leaving now. We will discuss it later after finding the antidote for you," saying that, Jonathan walked to the door.

After sending him away, I closed the door and walked back to the practice room.

Sitting cross-legged, I swallowed the brown color healing pill. The next second, I felt a warm enemy running down my throat. 

Then I started to run the wooden scripture. Then surprisingly the combination of the healing pill\'s energy and healing element is having a significant effect.

The black dots stopped spreading at a faster rate. Seeing that I felt the suppressed time might be longer because of my healing element\'s effectiveness.

A few minutes later,

I checked the body again after fully refining the energy. Seeing that the black dots stopped moving.

A hint of relief flashes in my eyes. Then I stood up and left the practice room. I went to take a shower. 

2o minutes later,

After changing into fresh clothes, I simply lay down on the bed. 

Meanwhile,

Jonathan arrived back at Carlos\' mansion in the meantime. After using Carlos\' I.D. card, he entered the practice room.

Seeing that Carlos is unconscious, he grew cold. He strongly believes that Zack\'s poisoning was something to do with him. 

So he hurriedly came back to check Carlos\' storage ring. He then walked forward to do the checking. 

He easily destroyed the mind imprints and started to check the resources. There are many rare and high-grade resources stored in the storage ring.

But Jonathan\'s mind was set on finding the cure. After doing careful checking, he retracts back his consciousness.

His face showed disappointment. As there was no poison pill or antidote in it. "I have to use my connections," Jonathan mumbled under his breath.

Carlos was drugged. It will take some time for him to regain consciousness. So in the meantime, Jonathan decided to leave.

Right now, finding a cure for Zack is more important than interrogating this person. He then left the room.

A few seconds later,

He appeared outside of Viper City in mid-air. He turned back and took a good look at the city before moving toward the destination.

Right after, he left.

Carlos Kent\'s watch was lit up with a notification sound. Someone is calling him. But he is not in the condition to attend the call.

The person who made the call was none other than the Giant Tower Headmaster. He wants to know the status of Zack Lockwood right now.

But unfortunately, no one could answer him right now.

Time passed,

The news about Zack\'s win started to make rounds. The duel videos are trending online. Some new students are equally surprised by watching Eurice Frye\'s mutated water elemental\'s power.

Because of it, the crowd started to gather in front of the male dorm building. All the male faction members want to meet Zack.

It\'s still daytime. So some are expecting Zack to appear outside. But to their disappointment, this is not going to happen.

As time passed, some people realized that they were waiting in vain. So they started to walk away. While others are waiting.

Some warriors started to post this on the online social media site as well. They are hoping that Zack will appear outside after reading the post.

Right now, not only the warriors are keeping an eye on the dorm building but the teachers and elders are as well.

Even the dean herself had warned the protectors. So both guardians continued to monitor the dorm building. 

Meanwhile,

Eurice Frye is also watching the development. She is watching for a different reason. She wanted to know when the academy would find out that Zack is dead.

"These people are unnecessarily waiting for him. He might be reading right now," She said to herself.

Then she saw the post about her and the teacher. A complex glint flashes in her eyes. She had chosen to hide this news from her.

She doesn\'t want to meet her right now. She can find something. Elder Alice has been guiding her for a long time.

So she was aware of her reactions. Eurice thinks that Elder Alice would raise questions about the duel.

Because she admitted defeat in front of the whole crowd. And she still had essence left to use at that time. 

After carefully thinking about it, Eurice decided to avoid her for the time being.

An hour later,

Jonathan reaches the magnanimous city. It is many times more luxurious and larger than Tier-6 cities of the academies. 

This was built on a different scale. But Jonathan directly flew over the city. He is speeding in mid-air toward the specific direction.

After a few seconds, he appeared in front of the high-rise circular building. This building is a chamber of commerce.

Jonathan showed the privileged cards to the guards before entering inside. 

The guards were stunned in disbelief. Because the star markings on the card were high in numbers.

This was something only founders can have.

The guards knew how to shut their mouths. So after the initial surprise, they recovered their expression back.

Jonathan appeared on the top floor. There was someone already waiting for him in the guest room.

After entering inside, a fat middle-aged man is reading the magazine. But after sensing the presence of Jonathan. He placed the book on the table before starting the greeting.

"Jonathan, what a pleasant surprise?"

"I never expected to see you here soon," The middle-aged man greeted with a smile.

"It\'s good to see you again Peter. But I\'m here for an urgent matter."

"Did you bring the antidote with you?" Jonathan impatiently asked back.

The middle-aged man\'s smile disappeared. Then he nodded his head in understanding. He brought the cure potion with him.

He then handed it over to Jonathan. 

Jonathan\'s eyes gleamed with a twinkle.

He asked, "What\'s the cost?"

The middle-aged man smiled before saying, "I can tell that the cure is for an important person. Otherwise, you wouldn\'t have rushed here."

"So take it as a gift from me," He added further.

Jonathan squinted his eyes. He placed the cure in the storage ring before turning to the middle-aged man.

"I know about you. Tell me what do you want?" Jonathan asked straightforwardly to him.
