Nina saw the boy fiercely tearing at the flag with the ominous symbol.
She walked over and said, "Your hand is seriously injured. I couldn't find effective medicine, but I can disinfect it with iodine for now. Otherwise, you might lose your hand. And taking your anger out on the flag won't help.
"It's just a piece of cloth."
The boy's eyes flashed with a fierce determination. "One day, I will cut off Pharaoh's head!"
His grandmother, younger siblings had been killed by Pharaoh's men. His father had been taken by them and was still missing. He hated Pharaoh with every fiber of his being.
"I don't like him much either, but you need to get better first," Nina told him.
The boy looked at her, puzzled. "Did Pharaoh's men kill your friends and loved ones too?"
"No," Nina replied. "But he has done some terrible things that have affected my life."
The boy scoffed, "They have no humanity."
Nina had already witnessed it, shattering her previous understanding of the world. Until Pharaoh was stopped, there would be no peace.
"You must know the area well. Do you know where they are based? Will you come with me? It could be dangerous, so think it through," Nina said as she applied iodine to the boy's hand and wrapped it with gauze.
The boy looked at her with curiosity. "You're going to find Pharaoh?"
"No, Pharaoh is looking for me," Nina said calmly. Given that he was looking for her, taking the risk made sense.
Besides, Scarlett was in their hands. As a hostage, Nina could infiltrate and gather information about Nash, as well as relay messages to the outside. It was the quickest route.
In no time, the snake was dead. The boy tossed it aside and picked up the red berries. "Eat some of these to hydrate. There's a village ahead."
"Thanks," Nina said.
The scene of the boy catching the snake with his bare hands was deeply imprinted in Nina's mind. She hadn't expected him to possess such skills.
Then again, living in such an environment, wilderness survival skills must be second nature to him. In a forest like this, a bite from a venomous snake could be fatal!
Even though Nina hadn't been bitten, she was still shaken and frightened.
She forced herself to eat two of the small red berries he had given her, but she couldn't eat any more. The fruits were slightly sweet at first, but left a bitter aftertaste.
