Earth God System

Chapter 4

"So Emperor YenLen lives in the land of Fang?" asked Othniel when he heard Elizabeth's explanation.

"That's right. It is sometimes difficult to enter Fang territory because the Emperor is not in good condition," Elizabeth said.

"There are many enemies who make Emperor YenLen's condition worse. They disguise themselves and say they're going to heal Emperor YenLen, but instead they make his health deteriorate even more," she continued.

"It looks like I can't go in; only you can go there. I could be considered an intruder, even if I go with you. So only you can go there," said Othniel.

"Later tonight I will make a special potion; tomorrow you should go there. Just in case the potion is suitable for Emperor YenLen." Othniel tried to convince herself to cure Emperor YenLen.

"Thank you for helping me; even though I don't know what your purpose is, you've really helped my problem," Elizabeth said while bowing her head.

"No need to thank me; the point is that you and I both benefit personally," Othniel replied with a small smile.

"Mr. Niel's benefit? Until he wants to help me. But I'm very lucky to have met a man like him. He's also very handsome," Elizabeth said to herself.

"I have to go. Wait for me tonight," Othniel said as he got up from his seat.

"Isn't it too much of a hurry?" Elizabeth wished they could eat together first.

"Of course not! Isn't the sooner the better? We don't know what James is planning," Othniel replied.

He was not willing to have the throne ruled by James. James was just a man who was crazy about women.

"I'll try the potion that Grandfather taught me, just in case it works. What's wrong with trying first, but I have to go to the forest to get the medicinal leaves?" said Othniel.

2 hours Othniel successfully made the potion. Othniel had to convince himself that his mission would succeed. Emperor YenLen would definitely recover when he drank the potion.

In the evening.

Othniel immediately handed over the potion to Elizabeth.

"If indeed the potion reacts well, drink it until the end, but it must be at different hours. Like every two hours, do you understand?" asked Othniel.

"Take care. I'm waiting for your good news," he continued, to which Elizabeth returned a small smile.

After a week of waiting, Othniel thought that his potion could not cure Emperor YenLen. He had already resigned himself to his job failing.

[Congratulations! Your mission was successful! You can receive rewards from the system. ]

The next second, a new job appeared from the system. Othniel bulged his eyes, looking at the job to be done.

"Kill King Felix? Isn't King Felix the King of this country?" Why did he have to get such a difficult job? He had never killed anyone in his life.

"System! What risk do I run if I refuse this job?" asked Othniel. Hopefully, the risk would not be heavy.

[ If you refuse this job, you will die. The decision is yours. ]

"Damn! I don't want to die so easily before my revenge is avenged." Othniel certainly had to accept and think of a subtle way to kill King Felix.

"When Elizabeth becomes heir to the throne, I will kill King Felix. That way, the people and Elizabeth will have the opinion that King Felix's death was James' doing. Of course, James will not be so willing when Elizabeth becomes the heir to the throne," Othniel said with a small smile.

"Elizabeth will be back soon," he continued.

"She must be being sought after by many enemies because she managed to heal Emperor YenLen. I need a weapon to help Elizabeth." Othniel thought of a way—what kind of weapon should he buy and how easy it would be to take out the enemy?

[The system offers help! Please, if you are interested, you may choose. ]

"The first choice, if I choose Pisol with the deadly poison in the world, I have to pay 50% with my assets. While the second option is extraordinary martial arts on the condition of providing assistance to someone who helps you." Othniel naturally chose the second option, because Othniel really wanted to find the old woman who had helped him. He should at least say thank you in person.

"But where do I look for her? I don't even know her face," Othniel said quietly.

"I should go to the hospital, in case there's someone there who knows that woman." Othniel then went to the hospital. He accidentally bumped into a janitor at the hospital.

"Sorry, sir, I wasn't careful," the woman said with her head down.

"No problem. I guess it was my fault for being in such a hurry," Othniel replied with a smile.

"That's very kind of you, sir. I'll excuse myself then." When the woman left, the system monitor screen suddenly appeared with a '!' sign on the screen.

Othniel then turned to look at the woman; he realized that maybe the system was giving a sign that the woman had helped him.

"Wait a minute! I want to talk to you. Do you remember the man you helped? The man who had the accident the other day," Othniel asked.

"Right, I still remember him. But who are you? Are you his family, but as far as I know, that man is no longer being treated here," the woman explained.

"I am aware of that; I am here to thank you." The old woman smiled a little, then nodded her head.

"You're welcome," she replied.

"Do you want something? Just name it; I'll make it happen. What do you want? Do you want money?" asked Othniel as he picked up a blank check.

"Just write down how much you want," he continued as he handed the check to the woman.

"No need; I am sincere in helping your family." The woman didn't want anything in return for helping someone.

"Don't be like that, please. Accept it." The woman must have thought the man before her was the family of the man she had helped, considering Othniel's face was handsome now, so the woman did not realize they were the same person.

"Please accept my help, I beg you. I will feel guilty if you continue to refuse," Othniel said with a pleading look.

"Actually, I don't want money; I just want my paralyzed husband back. But various doctors have tried to cure my husband; they always give up. I have spent a lot of money, but still my husband has not been cured. I've almost given up, but we still have children," explained the woman while holding back her tears.

"Can you take me to see your husband?" asked Othniel.

"But I'm working right now; I need this job. If I ask for permission, I will definitely be fired," the woman replied.

"I will ask for permission and change your working hours," said Othniel.

They then went to the old woman's house. Othniel was quite sad to see where the old woman lived; it turned out that there were still people who lived much harder than her.

"We used to be a well-off family, but I don't know what my husband does. I also don't know why my husband suddenly became paralyzed and couldn't speak," the woman explained.

Othniel looked at the man who was lying on the small bed. Othniel felt very sorry for him.

"Can I touch him?" she asked, to which the old woman nodded.

Othniel was surprised to see the system monitor screen offering an option. The choice was priced at $50,000,000.

"Health pill or health leaf?" Othniel said to himself.

"Can I use the bathroom?" asked Othniel. The woman said that the bathroom was outside, next to their house.

Othniel then chose the health pill, because if it was the health leaf, there would be another process. Othniel saw on the screen that the health pill purchase was successful. The pills were already in Othniel's hands. Then Othniel returned.

"Please take this pill, just in case your husband can recover." The woman was hesitant at first, but she did as Othniel ordered. And in just a few seconds, the man was back to normal.

"Thank you; you're a real help to us," said the old woman. Othniel only replied with a small smile.

"That bastard Felix will have to pay for everything." Othniel was certainly surprised to hear the old man's mutterings. What did this have to do with Felix? Was it Felix that the man was referring to, Felix the King of this country?
