The Born Winner (Jack and Katherine)

Chapter 1034 Three Days Later

Joseph got excited hearing the conversation.

His companion also looked delighted.

They looked at each other and was looking forward to the conversation.

They didn’t stand up and walk over. Instead, they continued pretending to talk to each other but their

attention was fully on the burly man.

The people around the burly man looked at him curiously after hearing what he said.

The drunk burly man seemed extremely pleased being the centre of attention.

One person asked, “How do you know?”

The question made the burly man even more elated. His face flushed and he was euphoric.

“You guys don’t know, because you guys don’t have many connections. But I do… Because my best

bud works in the palace as a guard, and…”

He paused and then he smiled as he said, “He was on duty that night the Beast Fighting Cage was

opened. He entered the cage as well.”

Amazing.

Everyone around him exclaimed.

But no one else in the tavern noticed as it was noisy in the tavern.

But Joseph and his companion who were concentrating on the conversation heard everything.

“Quick, quick, tell us what happened.”

The burly man chugged another beer upon hearing the question and started to tell the story slowly.

“Well, the guy from inner territory is apparently very talented. Do you guys know about Wolf House? It’s

the Hun’s top training institute. Everyone from the institute will be the pillar of the Hun’s country’s future!

And that guy is training in the Wolf House!”

“What?”

Everyone took a deep breath and their expression changed.

The Hun had a large territory. The people from smaller villages might not know much about Wolf

House, but aboriginal people living in the city had to hear about it before.

“What? A guy from inner territory can enter the Wolf House?”

“The Wolf House is very strict with its admission requirement and the king chooses them himself. A guy

from inner territory will be barred entry from the very start, no?”

“If you’re not lying, then this guy from inner territory must be extremely talented. Otherwise, the king

wouldn’t have let him in!”

The people around the burly men were suspicious of him.

The burly man didn’t mind, he continued talking.

"Well, yes. He is indeed extremely talented! The king opened the Beast Fighting Cage for him. My bud

said that the princess even begged the king not to make the person fight the beast. But in the end, the

person went into the cage and battled the beast. And he even won the fight!”

What he said shocked everyone around him.

“No way! The king wouldn’t normally open the cage. If he did so and the person walked out alive, he

had to be impatient to announce this to the whole world. A person who walked out alive from the Beast

Fighting Cage was someone to be respected and fear by the Hun!”

Someone retorted.

The burly man waved his hand, “You guys are naive. This issue was covered up by the king himself.

Don’t you guys think that it is harder to leave and enter the city recently? From what my buddy told me,

something huge would happen 3 days later at Royal city!”

“What will happen?”

Everyone’s eyes were wide open.

The burly man shook his head, “I don’t know. The king will be the one giving out the orders. Before that,

everything will be kept secret. My best bud and I were the only few who even knew a bit about this.”

The people around the burly man had a disappointed look on their faces.

Joseph and his companion looked at each other.

Joseph said sternly, “Let’s go back to where we are staying. No matter if it’s true or fake, we have to try

to infiltrate Royal city and find out if that person is the young master or not!”

“Yes!”

…

In the palace.

In the princess’ brightly lit quarter.

Jack laid down on Cynthia’s large and soft bed. Cynthia was sitting next to him, she was changing the

bandage on his back carefully.

She was gentle and careful, afraid of touching his skin that was scratched open by the Snow Lion.

“For the next 3 days, you will be the one changing my bandages and taking care of me?”

Jack sounded weak. His back was badly wounded, and he had no energy after going crazy. He woke

up, but his consciousness wasn’t entirely there.

“Yes, since I’m your wife. Who will take care of you if not me?”

Cynthia answered while concentrating on rubbing some ointment on Jack’s back.

Jack felt warm inside.

He smiled gently, “But you are a princess. You shouldn’t work so relentlessly. You can ask the servants

to do it.”

“I would be restless if I left it up to them.”

Cynthia raised her brow and inched closer to him. She smiled and she whispered next to his ears with

her pretty looking lips, “Not to mention that my father treasures you a lot right now. He won’t leave

taking care of you to the servants.”

“Is the Beast Fighting Cage really that powerful?”

Jack felt his ears and his face burning up, he tried to smile and said, “When I was entering the cage,

your father was doing everything he could to kill me. He even used Amanda to threaten me.”

“It’s 'cause you’re too capable.”

Cynthia sat up straight and said, “My father wanted to kill you at first because you threatened him with

Amanda. That was a huge taboo. A normal person, no, even Wolfgang, one of the most powerful Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

warriors, would get a death sentence for doing that!”

“Because of me, you got to challenge the beast instead. You managed to enter the zone in a nick of

time and the Snow Lion stopped attacking you. After that, my father didn’t want to kill you anymore!”

“Thank you.”

Jack stared at her deeply and said seriously.

Cynthia started wrapping Jack with new bandages and said, “We are husband and wife. It’s only

normal that I plead for you. But you are only alive because of your skills! You weren’t aware of what

was happening around you when you got in the zone, right? My father was so shocked when he saw

the Snow Lion listening to your commands. He caught it 3 years ago and wanted the King of Beasts’

Submission, but the Snow Lion was extremely ferocious!”

“King of Beasts’ Submission ”

Jack frowned in confusion, “What does that mean?”

Cynthia was done changing Jack’s bandage. She explained what it meant and Jack finally connected

the dots.

“So from now on, the Snow Lion would recognize me as its master and listen to my every command?”

Jack mumbled.

Cynthia smiled charmingly, “It would even die for you willingly!”

She paused, and then she patted Jack’s shoulder gently. She said happily, “You have to try to recover

as soon as possible. My father wants you to ride the Snow Lion and walk around the city the day after

tomorrow. He wants to present you to the people and he is also going to give you recognition as the

Hun’s warrior. He even wants to build you a monument!”

“This is the first time in 1000 years that we, the Hun, get to witness someone getting a triple crown. It’s

the highest form of recognition you can get!”

Cynthia’s eyes turned dreamy as she talked.

She leaned forward and pressed her red lips on Jack’s shoulder. She muttered, “Thank you. I’m

thankful for having you as my husband!”
