Legend of Wyatt
Chapter 1080: Amnesia

Chapter 1080: Chapter 1080: Amnesia

However, just as Wyatt Barnes looked expectantly at Winnie Romero, something unexpected happened suddenly!

Whoosh!

Winnie Romero moved and stabbed at him with her sword, extremely abrupt and fierce.

At that moment, the flames emanating from her body seemed filled with an ice-cold aura, which chilled Wyatt’s heart.

To Wyatt, Winnie’s speed did not seem fast.

Yet, he had no intention of dodging.

He stood there quietly, his eyes soft and tender, staring at Winnie Romero, who inexplicably thrust her sword at him.

At this moment, the world in his eyes seemed to only contain the increasingly close fiery silhouette.

Even though the silhouette suddenly seemed to turn into a giant red beast that wanted to devour him, his expression and gaze remained unchanged, as tender as water as always.

Whoosh!

Winnie Romero, whose face seemed covered with a layer of frost, swept her sword toward Wyatt’s heart, as if intending to kill him with a single strike.

However, seeing that Wyatt made no move to escape, her speed slightly reduced.

But, she was too close to him.

Even though her motion was slow, her sword quickly reached a spot not far from Wyatt’s chest.

"Why... won’t he dodge?"

"Why does it pain my heart to strike him with my sword?"

...

Like turning into a flame, Winnie Romero trembled inexplicably as she reached the front of Wyatt.

At the same time, she felt a sudden wave of panic and confusion.

Amid the lightning, her gaze happened to meet the sword close to Wyatt’s heart, and she hastily moved the sword aside, trying to retract it.

Unfortunately, she was still too slow.

The strong ’inertia’ carried her forward, driving her sword into the chest of the young man in purple.

Pff!

Blood splattered, onto her body, onto her hands.

Looking at the blood on her hands, she felt a heart-wrenching pain.

"Pain!"

She released the sword, covered her chest, her face in a daze, as if she had lost something in that instant.

Helpless and panicked, her breathing nearly stopped.

"Why... does my heart ache?"

"Do I really know him? Why is his gaze so gentle... What is our relationship?"

"Why won’t he dodge? Why?"

...

Winnie Romero’s beautiful face turned deathly pale, and she muttered to herself in a dazed and soulless manner.

Bang!!

It was not until a loud noise came that she snapped back to reality.

"Young Master!"

After bursting through the door, upon seeing the scene before him, Fill Bear’s complexion drastically changed, and he quickly leaped forward, reaching the faltering figure in purple in an instant.

Whoosh!

In an instant, Fill Bear pulled out the red soft sword from the young man’s chest and threw it on the ground, simultaneously using Origin Force to stop the bleeding.

"Thank goodness... thank goodness..."

Seeing that the sword had missed the heart and the young man in purple was not in life-threatening danger, Fill Bear breathed a sigh of relief.

"Cough!"

Always expressionless while watching Winnie Romero, as if soulless, having not even felt the sword enter his chest, Wyatt finally showed signs of life after Fill Bear removed the sword.

He coughed, a mouthful of clotted blood spraying out, staining the ground and forming a glaring, eye-catching red rose.

"Young Master? Who hurt you?"

Fill Bear’s expression hardened, his eyes filled with a murderous intent.

At that moment, he seemed to completely forget that Wyatt’s strength surpassed his own, and that anyone who could injure Wyatt was not someone he could handle.

Soon, Fill Bear got his answer.

That answer left him dumbstruck.

"You... why didn’t you dodge?"

A voice devoid of any emotion came, causing Fill Bear’s gaze to shift to the woman in red not far away.

"Miss Winnie... you... you’re awake?!"

Fill Bear widened his eyes, his face filled with disbelief.

"Young Master... you... did you find Soul-stabilizing Root and Soul-setting Grass for Miss Winnie? This Gagnon Family is truly impressive, having both of these extremely rare treasures from the entire Cloud Skies Continent that even you mentioned."

Fill Bear quickly seemed to guess something, a smile appearing on his face.

But his smile soon froze.

For he noticed the blood on Winnie Romero’s hands, which made his face change color, "Miss Winnie... was it you... did you stab the Young Master?"

Had it been someone else, even if he knew he would not win, he would have fought to the death to avenge his young master.

But now, the person was Winnie Romero, his young master’s woman, the future Young Madam.

Although he was furious, he could do nothing.

"Why dodge? You... could you really kill me?"

Facing Winnie Romero’s inquiry, Wyatt Barnes, pale from excessive blood loss, responded with a question of his own.

Winnie fell silent upon hearing his words.

Looking at the man’s pale face before her, her heart inexplicably ached, as if it were being torn in two.

She didn’t even know why.

"Could it be... did I really know him before? But why can’t I remember anything?"

No matter how hard Winnie tried, she couldn’t recall any memories related to the man before her.

Yet the man’s injuries inexplicably pained her.

This forced her to believe that the man before her must have had a deep connection with her past self.

At this moment, any hostility Winnie had towards Wyatt had vanished.

Noticing this, Wyatt sighed in relief and a sincere smile formed on his lips.

He knew his decision to not dodge was correct.

At least, he had broken through the defensive barriers of the amnesiac Winnie; it was a successful start, and now she was no longer rejecting him.

Soon, she might completely accept him.

Had he dodged earlier, he would have faced an even more furious assault from the amnesiac Winnie, and she wouldn’t have stopped rejecting him like she presently was.

"Young Master... what is this play between you and Miss Winnie?"

Fill Bear, standing to the side and seeing Wyatt smiling despite his injuries, was completely baffled.

"Fill Bear, I only found the ’Soul-stabilizing Root’ at the Gagnon Family’s place, but couldn’t find the ’Soul-setting Grass’... After Winnie took the medicine refined from the Soul-stabilizing Root, she woke up but seems to have lost her memories about me," Wyatt explained succinctly to Fill Bear.

"Lost her memories? I see."

Upon hearing Wyatt’s words, Fill Bear felt as if he were listening to some fantastical tale, until later, when he suddenly understood.

This explained why Miss Winnie, who was devoted to his Young Master, would hurt him.

So, it turned out that Miss Winnie had lost her memory.

"Young Master, what should we do now?"

Fill Bear asked.

"As long as we find the ’Soul-setting Grass’ and refine the medicine for Winnie to take, her wounded soul can fully recover... By then, she will naturally remember everything," Wyatt said.

"That’s good."

Fill Bear nodded and breathed a sigh of relief, genuinely worried that Miss Winnie might not recover and might attack his Young Master again.

Winnie overheard the entire conversation between Wyatt and Fill Bear.

"Why did I lose my memory?"

Winnie looked at Wyatt and asked.

Now, although her face was still frosty, it was not as repellent toward Wyatt as before, which was evident from her initiating conversation with him.

Hearing Winnie Romero’s inquiry, Wyatt couldn’t help but recall the painful memories of the past.

For him, it was undoubtedly a painful past he didn’t wish to revisit.

However, facing the amnesiac Winnie, he shared everything candidly.

He mainly recounted how Winnie had forcibly enhanced her ’Fire Essence’ for his sake in the past and how it caused the power of the ’Fire Spirit Body’ within her to collapse.

Of course, he also mentioned how he, after undergoing Devil Transformation, suppressed the volatile ’Fire Spirit Body’ within her but still caused severe damage to her soul,

and what followed thereafter.

"So it was like that... In the past, for you, I was willing to risk everything, even my own life?"

Winnie murmured.

Although Winnie had learned about the past from Wyatt, she was amnesiac and heard his recounting as if it were a story, completely unable to be as close to him as before.

However, despite becoming ’colder’ than before, she was still able to accept Wyatt and no longer rejected him.

This pleased Wyatt tremendously.

At minimum, he didn’t have to worry about Winnie attacking him with knives or swords anymore.

"Now, we just need to find the ’Soul-setting Grass’ to restore Winnie’s memory... Without her memories, even knowing about the past, she won’t revert to her former self," Wyatt thought to himself.

The current Winnie was cold as ice, entirely different from her past self.

Except for him, she wore a cold expression towards everyone, almost as if they owed her a great debt.

To this, Wyatt felt quite helpless and tried to change her, but eventually found it impossible.

In the end, Wyatt had no choice but to let her be that way.

In a mansion in the eastern part of the Gagnon Family estate.

Whoosh!

A swift figure swooped down like a hawk and steadily landed in the backyard pavilion.

Inside the pavilion, a young man in gray clothes was sitting at a stone table, holding a ’wooden sword’ in his hand, his expression somber, lost in thought.

"Young Master, are you thinking about the young master again?"

The visitor was an old man who, upon entering the pavilion, immediately noticed the wooden sword in the young man’s hands.

"Elder Lester, do you still remember this wooden sword?"

The young man in gray rotated the wooden sword in his hand and asked.

"I remember,"

The old man nodded, then sighed, "You personally made this wooden sword for him on his fifth birthday... Back then, the young master was so happy when he received this birthday gift."

"Yes... In the blink of an eye, nearly thirty years have passed."

The young man in gray nodded.
