Charlie was quick to accommodate Zara’s request.
“No problem, I’ll have Isaac bring your brother back before tonight.
He’ll be free to move around Aurous Hill City until August 10th.
On that day, he’ll need to report to Isaac at Shangri-La at eight in the morning.”
Zara was overjoyed by the extra two days that Charlie had granted her brother, and without a second thought, she
blurted out, “Thank you so much, Mr. Wade.
I’ll stay in Aurous Hill and keep an eye on him to make sure he arrives on time on August 10th.”
Just then, Isaac learned that Charlie was at the hotel.
Charlie immediately called him, asking, “Isaac, where’s Fitz?”
Isaac was taken aback for a moment, then he shifted his gaze to Zara and stammered, “I’m afraid that your
brother has been gone for about a third of his sentence, and he’s already in Mount Valley Province.”
Charlie remained unfazed by the news.
“You’ll need to arrange for someone to bring him back, Isaac.
Just make sure to mark the location where you picked him up and send him back to that same place on August
10th.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWithout hesitation, Isaac replied, “Understood.
I’ll have our men in the area pick him up by helicopter.
We have a plane ready to take off from Riverdale Airport, so as soon as your brother arrives, we’ll fly him back to
Aurous Hill directly.”
“Alright,” Charlie directed, “Make the arrangements as soon as possible.”
A helicopter was quickly dispatched from Riverdale, the capital of Emerald Province, and took off, heading straight
towards Fitz’s location in the southeast.
The journey was short, with only a distance of over 40 kilometers to cover, allowing the helicopter to arrive in under
ten minutes at full speed.
Meanwhile, Fitz continued his pilgrimage on foot in Mount Valley Province, his body worn down and his clothes in
tatters.
Despite his scruffy appearance, he had donned thick protective gear on his hands and knees.
Every three steps, he would kneel on the ground and kowtow before rising again to continue his journey, repeating
the cycle with every few steps.
When Fitz began his pilgrimage, his body was not accustomed to the high-intensity exercise and was quickly
tormented by the routine.
Walking only three to four kilometers a day, he was much slower than normal believers who could walk up to ten
kilometers a day.
As time passed, he adapted to the rhythm and slowly increased his daily distance to seven or eight kilometers.
Now, after more than five months, he has traveled over a thousand kilometers on foot.
As Fitz continued his grueling journey, he began to notice that he was not alone on the road.
At first, he had thought himself to be an outlier for performing the arduous task of kowtowing every three steps and
sleeping under the open sky at night.
However, as he walked farther and farther, he discovered that there were many others like him making their way
to the southwest on a pilgrimage.
But there was one fundamental difference between Fitz and these other travelers – they were all driven by faith,
while Fitz himself was an atheist.
They believed in a higher power that guided them on their journey, while Fitz only had the order from Charlie to
motivate him.
As Fitz continued his pilgrimage, his mind became more and more reflective.
With every step he took, he felt like he was reliving the mistakes and shortcomings of his life over and over again.
It was a painful process, but necessary for him to move forward.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs he reviewed his past actions, he became increasingly aware of the many ways in which he had fallen short.
His arrogance and entitlement as the young heir of the Banks family was just the beginning.
He had been ungrateful and unappreciative of Charlie’s help, and had failed to acknowledge the sacrifices made on
his behalf.
But his past transgressions went even deeper.
When his grandfather took his father away, and his mother and sister were put in harm’s way, he had chosen to
compromise with the culprit in order to protect his own future.
Looking back, he saw this as a third and final deadly sin.
As time went by, Fitz was surprised to discover that Charlie’s punishment, which was similar to physical torture,
could actually bring a sense of calm to his mind.
With a calm mind, the daily physical exhaustion was no longer a form of torment.
He was like a sedentary person who became addicted to exercise after taking it up.
Fitz found himself getting lost in it, unable to stop moving as long as the weather was good.
In addition, as he reflected on his mistakes and misdeeds over the years, the hatred he once harbored for Charlie
began to slowly fade away.
He finally bega
