Unveiled: The Survivor's Triumph

Chapter 234 The Days Without You Are Really Lonely

A loud explosion boomed from below the cliff.

"Dakato!" I sprinted to the edge.

The air stank of gunpowder, and the smoke from the blast made it hard to see. When it finally cleared, I saw the dizzying drop to the wild sea below, but Dakato was nowhere in sight.

Everyone gathered at the cliff's edge. Dennis showed up out of nowhere, holding a gun. Looked like that shot came from him. Gideon's crew, seeing their leader dead, just gave up.

Faris was down on one knee at the cliff's edge, his bleeding hand propping him up, staring down with a mix of shock and pain.

The officer told Faris to get to the hospital to reattach his finger, but he refused, insisting on joining the search. I followed them down the mountain to the rocks at the bottom of the cliff.

The wind was fierce by the sea, waves crashing against the rocks, and the salty breeze had a hint of blood in it.

Bits of burnt clothing were scattered around, and even a severed arm, which belonged to Gideon.

Everyone searched everywhere, but there was no sign of Dakato.

By now, Faris had gotten over the initial shock. He stood still on a rock, staring at the sea, watching a group of officers, including Dennis, searching in the water. Suddenly, he jumped into the sea.

"Faris!" I shouted.

His hand was still hurt, and in this cold weather, how could he handle it? But he quickly dived into the water.

The waves were strong, and I anxiously watched the sea. Many officers came back empty-handed, but Faris hadn't returned.

After what felt like forever, his head finally popped up from the water.

He swam to the shore, sitting weakly on the edge, staring at the sea with a calm look.

It was in this heavy pain and calm guilt that he passed out.

His finger was severed, the wound untreated, and he had been soaking in the icy seawater for so long. By the time he got to the hospital, he had a high fever.
