Chapter 824 The Monkey Changed His Attitude (1/2)
Darren landed in front of Naomi's cottage.
”Naomi, I need your help.” Anxiety laced Darren's voice as he called the girl.
A beautiful figure quickly flew out.
”What do you want?”
”Help me release the monkey.” Darren came straight to the point.
”No way!” Naomi shook her head. Then she said, ”The monkey is fierce. Aunt Caroline won't be happy if I release him.”
”I have already spoken with Caroline, and she agreed,” Darren said.
”Really? Wait, let me check.” Naomi glared at Darren suspiciously before using her spiritual sense to speak with her aunt.
”Well, it seems that you are right. She has agreed to spare the monkey. But, if you want my help, you have to give me something in return, ha-ha.” Naomi smiled. Mischief danced in her beautiful eyes as she teased Darren.
Darren laughed before releasing a sigh of resignation. ”Okay. What do you want?”
”I haven't thought of anything yet. How about I tell you later?”
”Agreed. Now, come with me. We'd better go as soon as possible, or the monkey will die.” Darren turned and set off.
The monkey had been grilled for so long that his body was completely charred. It was hard to detect his breath of life.
Naomi made a complex gesture with her hands and muttered mysterious incantations.
Runes flew out, one by one from her fingers. After a moment, the rope on the monkey loosened. Darren flew to catch the monkey before he fell to the ground.
”Okay, it's done.”
”Thank you.”
”Don't forget! You owe me a favor. I'm going to practice my skills now. Bye!” Naomi left without another word.
Darren placed the monkey on the ground and infused spiritual energy into his body to heal his wounds.
After three days, the monkey's body returned to normal. He even grew new skin!
”How are you feeling?”
”Well…” the monkey said as he opened his eyes. ”You really saved me.”
It had been over two months since they last spoke. Even though Darren had assured the monkey that he would rescue him, the monkey thought that Darren was lying. Now that he had been saved, the monkey knew that Darren was trustworthy.
”Of course! I always keep my promises. It's my principle,” Darren replied with a smile.
”Thank…” The monkey was too shy to express his gratitude, so he swallowed the word ”you.”
Half a month later, the monkey had completely recovered.
