Chapter 199 Bury Him
Jack looked in the north direction and started moving according to the compass, now he was somewhat relieved that he got a direction to move in.
He then increased his pace by a bit and a relaxed expression appeared on his face.
After moving for an hour suddenly a voice came from behind him. "Jack."
When he heard his name called out Jack turned his body around to look at the source of the voice and when he saw who it was a frown appeared on his face.
"What are you two doing here?" Jack asked as he moved towards Feba and Faneel.
Faneel looked at Jack and sighed. "We can't just leave you alone in such a dangerous place." He said.
Feba on the other hand dropped her bags and ran towards Jack, and after reaching near him, she hugged him tightly.
"I told you to not follow me." Jack patted her head and sighed, now he would have to take care of two of them.
He didn't want this to happen and he didn't know how they entered this place in the first place.
Feba moved her head up and looked at Jack with tears in her eyes. "You think you can leave me alone?" She asked.
"Nobody was leaving you alone." Jack sighed.
"Shut up! I will follow you from now on." Feba said and tightened her grip around him, she was afraid that he would leave her alone again.
"Ok, you can come with me, but remember that you will have to follow whatever I say to you guys," Jack said as he looked at Feba.
His gaze then landed on Faneel. "And if any of you don't follow what I say then I will leave you guys alone and I won't be saving you. This is a dangerous place." Jack made his words clear.
"Don't worry, I will do as you say." Faneel nodded quickly.
Feba on the other hand moved away from him and looked into his eyes while wiping her tears. "Ok." She said and picked up her bags again.
Jack looked at both of them and nodded. "Ok, follow me." He said and started moving north according to his compass.
"Twinkle gave you a compass too?" Feba started moving beside him and asked with her brows raised.
"Twinkle?" Jack furrowed his brows and then suddenly remembered about the little girl he met previously. "Are you talking about that little girl?" He asked.
"Yes." Feba nodded. "She gave us a compass too." She said.
Jack took in a deep breath when he heard her words. "What question did she ask you?"
"She asked us how many fingers she has." Faneel chipped in from behind.
"And how did you guys answer that question?" Jack asked with his brows furrowed, he remembered that he had to use his truth meter to answer.
And if not for his truth meter then it would have been impossible for him to come to a correct answer.
Feba smiled proudly at his words. "I am just that smart." She said while rubbing the ridge of her nose slightly.
"She kissed her ass and got two easy options," Faneel said, breaking the smile on Feba's face.
"She gave you options?" Jack said and his brows twitched. 'That girl! She would have killed me if not for the truth meter and now she is giving options to other people!' Jack thought and sighed.
He was happy that Feba was safe from Twinkle.
"Yes." Feba nodded.
"What options did she give you?" Jack asked casually.
"Ten and forty-eight." She said.
"And how did you know the correct answer?" Jack asked.
"Well before asking me the question she told me about how much she hated you and how she wanted me to kill you and get one of your fingers. I figured that she might love collecting fingers." Feba explained.
Faneel listened to her and sighed. 'She never fails to impress me. I wonder if I will ever be able to stand in her place.'
"That's Nice," Jack said and nodded.
"What are you using that compass for?" Feba asked with her brows raised.
"To know the directions, what else I would use this compass for?" Jack looked at Feba with a confused expression on his face.
"Direction? Twinkle didn't tell you about the real use of this compass?" Feba asked.
Even Faneel looked at Jack with a confused expression.
"No, she said this is a normal compass," Jack told the truth.
"She must be really pissed off by you," Feba said and chuckled. "I wonder what you did to make her so mad?"
"What is the real use of this compass?" Jack asked. He wanted to know if he could use this compass to gain an upper hand against this word.
"This is an exit button. If you want to get out of this place then just crush the compass and it will throw you out." Faneel explained.
"So if I don't want to stay in this place any longer, all I have to do is to crush this compass?" Jack looked at the tool in his hand and turned silent for a moment.
"Yes, Twinkle said that there is no other way we can exit this place other than this compass, so it's extremely important. And only one person could exit with one of these." Feba explained this time.
Jack nodded at them and started to move again. "Let's go." He said and headed in the north direction.
"Why are you moving north?" Feba asked suddenly.
"Don't ask me unnecessary questions, there are some things I can't tell you guys about and it's for your own good," Jack said as he kept moving without looking at them.
Feba listened to him and sighed. "Ok, I am ready to follow you." She said and kept moving behind him.
Faneel on the other hand was not interested in anything and kept his mouth shut.
....
"Why the fuck did you kill him!" Rebecca looked at Twinkle and clenched her teeth when she saw one of her men lying on the ground dead.
One of his fingers was chopped off and Twinkle was it in front of him.
"Hehehe... Because he answered my question wrong." Twinkle giggled and looked at Ren.
"You old man, do you wanna answer my question." Twinkle asked while pointing at him.
Ren looked at her and gritted his teeth, just now this little girl appeared in front of them out of nowhere and when they tried to kill her she somehow made their weapons disappear.
And then she asked how many fingers she had and one of the guys in their team answered without thinking and got himself dead.
"We don't want to answer any of your questions. Just go away." Rebecca said as she stepped forward.
"Are you sure? I will give every one of you a prize if even a single one can answer my question." Twinkle said with her brows raised.
"No, we don't want your prize." Ren interrupted.
Twinkle listened to him and then looked at their faces. "Hehehe... If that's what you want then I can't do anything." She laughed and disappeared from the place.
While disappearing she also dropped their machine guns on the ground.
After she was gone Rebecca took in a deep breath and looked at the dead body on the ground.
"Bury him." She ordered.
Ren listened to her and sighed. "Madam, I don't think we have enough energy to bury him, we have to conserve as much as we can." He said.
Rebecca moved his head and looked at Ren with her eyes narrowed. "No, we are burying him!" She said in a strict tone.
Ren saw her and turned silent. He then looked at his men and nodded at them and with his order they quickly started digging a hole with whatever they had.
In about an hour, they managed to bury their teammate in the vast grassland.
"Madam, where do you think we should head towards?" Ren asked as he moved closer to Rebecca.
"According to the Boseman family notes, north is the correct direction," Rebecca said and took out a small compass from her pocket.
It was not the same as the one Twinkle was handing out.
Ren nodded and moved back towards his team.
Rebecca on the other hand looked at the compass and sighed. 'I can't get out of this place without the compass the little girl gives. However, answering her question is close to impossible according to the notes.' She thought.
'I will have to break this Realm with the help of Ring of Power, or I will have to find a dead guy that still has a compass on him.' Rebecca thought and looked back at his people.
'And as for them...' She looked at them and sighed.
After adjusting her compass she started to move towards North Direction too just like Jack.
After ten hours of walking, Jack, Feba and Faneel sat down on the grass with exhausted expressions on their faces.
Jack was the least affected after walking so much.
"We are walking pointlessly," Faneel complained as he got laid on the huge grassland.
"I think we should set a camp here and rest a bit," Feba said as she looked at Jack.
Jack looked at their conditions and nodded. "Ok."
