With everyone in a rather good mood, they returned to the city, as the ordeal had come to a satisfying end. At this point, no one dared to look down on Peter, the young man, anymore.
"Peter, if it wasn't for you this time, I would have fallen here. I, Hugo Stanley, will always remember your life-saving grace!"
The middle-aged man rescued by Peter from the entanglement of tree roots sincerely showed his gratitude with a salute.
"Don't be so formal, Hugo. We went out together, saving someone is just the right thing to do."
Peter responded with a smile.
"I won't say anything more about gratitude. I only know that you saved my life."
"Peter, I also want to thank you for saving me. Without you, I might have died."
The young man who had been poisoned was overwhelmed with gratitude. If it weren't for Peter's incredible skills, the poison from the tree would have taken his life.
