THE ETERNAL DRAGON
CHAPTER 33 | Can I borrow it

“How's your expedition progress?” ask Brandon

“Everything is not as expected. There are still many places that have not been explored, I hesitate to find the bone knife.” said Violet

“If the gem how?” continued Brandon

“Permata currently we already have one of them, only four more. The current expedition in addition to looking for the bone knife, we prioritize looking for the gem first. I had an intuition that the jewel would lead us to get that knife” Violet said back.

“Could it be, the gem has already been found by someone else?” ask Brandon

Brandon's question made Violet stunned, “Can be a big brother. Does sister have any leads?”

“I remember grandfather once mentioned to me, that our sect already has two jewels, but previously there was an internal dispute of the sect and one of the treacherous members fled with one of the gem”

“Maybe we can start the investigation from there” continued Brandon

“Why is the new sister saying this to me?” ask Violet

“Because all this time my mind was focused on finding Araga only. I forgot the thing about this knife and jewel” Brandon said as he lit his cigar.

“You're the one in charge of looking for the knife and the jewel. So I completely forgot about it” Brandon replied back

“After finding Araga, I realized. We won't be able to kill him if we don't use the knife. That's why I called you to tell you this” he continued.

“Let us now focus more on finding where the traitor is. At least we can get one more of those gems.”

“Alright brother. I will also try to send people to find out the gems from the auctions and collections of people around the world” said Violet.

“Good. Focus on chasing the gem first, if collected will certainly make it easier to find the knife” said Brandon

“How about Khaga?” tanyanya returned

“Master Khaga handed over all his resources to help find the items.” said Violet

“Hahahaha. So there is no harm in helping each other.” Brandon said next

“Alright, our meeting is quite up here. Report every discovery that matters to me” Brandon said

“Good kak” said Violet as she left her brother to return to Moscow.

For a while I worked with you Khaga, then you were our enemy, Brandon muttered with a smile.

Ancestral grudges are avenged, I can become immortal and the world is under my command, Brandon said in his heart

“Hahahaha..” Brandon laughed at that.

At the same time, John was re-examining the photos of the information provided by Violet in his room. Then he sent the information to Jiro and William to conduct an investigation.

“Jiro, please find gem information all over the world, from museums, auctions, even private collections of everyone in the world” said John

“Good tuan” sahut Jiro from across the phone.

“Ohya, is there an auction in the near future in Russia? Since I'm here, let's start with Russia. Send me information about the thing I asked for earlier, especially in Russia first.” continued John

About an hour later, Jiro sent out all the information obtained from the museum, private collection and auction related gems. John then collects it and compares it to the shape of the jewel from the photo Violet gave him.

Was this gem previously one that broke into five? is the color the same? does it have a specific aura? john's mind raged over all possibilities.

The only way was to see the jewel himself, then he called Violet who was on her way back to Moscow.

“What's Mr Araga?” violet asked across the phone while driving her car

“Don't you not care about those gems and knives?” violet smiled across the phone.

“After I reread the information from you, I thought I should start from this gem. I hope my intuition is not wrong”, said John next

“Alright Mr. Araga, we have the same intuition. I'll meet you with the jewel” Violet said as she hung up.

After hanging up the phone, John's room was knocked by someone.

“John, let's have dinner” said a woman from outside the door.

John opens the door and sees the beautiful Sara standing there smiling. She hugged John “I miss you John”.

John's eyes twitched at Sara's outspoken attitude like that. Not knowing what to answer, John just smiled looking at her. Then Sarah took John's right hand and wrapped a string she had stranded with a small jade. “This is for you” said.

John looked at the simple bracelet, his heart was stunned for a moment, this was the first time he had received a gift from a woman. She smiled, “I love it” that makes Sara's heart sparkle.

Sara pulls John in her hand and takes him to the hotel restaurant for dinner with Cindy and Sasha waiting at the restaurant.

“I think you went where Sara was, then I wanted to call you and John” Cindy said with a jealous smile.

“You didn't do anything weird with Sara's John” Sasha later.

Why is it that every time you meet the three of them, my head gets dizzy, John thought.

“Although there is nothing that does not matter to me” said Sara flirtatious while embracing John's arm that makes her head heavier.

Cindy and Sasha looked at Sara with sinister faces, looking at Sara's attitude.

The four of them sat down and dined together.

“A pleasant step accompanied by three such beautiful women” whispered an envious man across the table John with his friend.

John who listened to the whisper turned his head sharply to the man who made them turn his face “Fun what was” John said inwardly.

When their meal was over, they finally had a casual conversation. John listened to their respective experiences during the expedition and sightseeing today.

Then she heard footsteps approaching them, Violet came gracefully while carrying a box, then took a chair and sat down with them.

“Damn it, now there are four beautiful women with him” the man across the table whispered back

This time John was too lazy to comment on the nagging of the men who were at the restaurant who were on an envious gaze at him. His eyes were focused on the black box that Violet was carrying.

“John, I want to give you a gift” Violet tease with her flirtatious eyes that make all three women's faces in front of John blush. He handed the box to John.

When John was about to open it, “Don't open here John, I was embarrassed to be seen by the people” said with a sad face and then stood about to leave.

John also abandoned his intention to open the box.

“After you are satisfied to observe it, I will come back to retrieve it again” whispered Violet to John's ear as she blinked her eyes and passed away leaving the four of them.

John felt the surrounding air make him hot, he slowly turned his head towards the three women who let out a sinister face.

“Basic playboy” says Cindy Ketus.

Sasha did not know what to say, her heart was sad mixed with anger and envy.

Sara who sits next to John is curious about the contents of the box “You don't want to open it John?”
