Winner Takes All novel Chapter 1032

His low voice shocked and reverberated in everyone’s ears. Cynthia, the guards, the beast slaves all looked dumbfounded towards King Hun. King Hun appeared to be extremely vexed and bewildered. But then, King Hun began to grin in amazement as he remarked, “What a joke. I tried for three years to tame and subdue this beast but today, Snow Lion had finally been subdued by this battle. This is indeed a slap across my face!”

Cynthia looked at King Hun and focused on the key point of … being subdued.

“Father, what do you mean by the King of Beasts being subdued?” Cynthia quickly asked.

King Hun looked towards the cage and Snow Lion who was behaving like a cat as it laid beside Jack. King Hun then explained, “To the King of Beasts, it reigned over all the animals. It would never lower itself to any animals weaker than itself in a world where the strong feeds on the weak. However, when it meets a beast stronger than itself, it would submit and adopt the stronger beast as its master.”

After a pause, King Hun continued, “Taming a beast by force does not win over the beast’s heart and under the right conditions, the beast would abandon its master.”

“However, when the beast submits, then it would wholeheartedly accept and gives its life to the master. Even in the face of danger, the beast would stand by the master’s side and protect its master even unto death!” King Hun appeared to be totally conflicted and troubled as he said.

He raised his hands to rub his face as if to compose himself, “Oh the King of Beasts… the Beast among beasts! I spent three years and could not get Snow Lion to submit itself to me. Now, this chap had made it submit to him in just a day!”

King Hun then looked down towards Cynthia and said, “Honey, perhaps your choice was right after all!”

Cynthia’s eyes lit up when she saw King Hun’s change in attitude and emotions started to stir within her. Simply said, Snow Lion had been subdued by greedy wolf in this fight and Jack absolutely won the heart and loyalty of Snow Lion. She was also clear why King Hun wanted Snow Lion’s loyalty.

In the great snow plains where survival of the fittest is the order of the day, being able to subdue such a majestic beast would have a huge contribution to the coalition!

Cynthia bit her lips as she said, “Father, aren’t you after the honor of subduing Snow Lion?”

King Hun laughed and then raised his hand and ordered the guards and beast slaves, “Get Snow Lion into his enclosure and quickly give it medical treatment.”

“Yes, your excellency!” The guards and beast slaves answered in unison.

Then King Hun looked towards the unconscious Jack who was still in the cage. His anger had all but cleared from his face and he was looking radiant when he ordered, “This is a good thing, an excellent achievement! From this moment forward, all the offenses committed by greedy wolf had been forgiven. He shall be appointed as the General of the South and command the army. He shall also be bestowed the honor of the Hun Top Warrior!” The King declared with unusual gusto and pride and everyone was surprised.

Even Cynthia was stunned by the sudden and drastic change of King Hun. The change was so great that Cynthia could not believe it and it was as if all the conflicts between King Hun and Jack never happened!

A monument in his honor, appointed as General and awarded the honor of the Hun Top Warrior! All these were the greatest honor to the Huns. Any one of these awards would be a great honor but now, all three of these were bestowed upon one man!

This had never occurred in the millennia of Hun history.

Even Cynthia was stunned that such a high honor was bestowed by her father without a hint of hesitation. It appeared that they had risen from the depths of hell to the heavens. What was even more unsettling to Cynthia was the way her father was behaving so joyously.
