"How did this happen." Villagers looked inside the shack above the little hill that was covered with a snow.
Almost everyone here was a villager, even the most shy ones who didn't go partying last night.
*CREAK*
The door opened and someone came out, it was a middle-aged man with a brown beard and an incredibly buff build.
"What is happening doctor, what happened to Jason." Bratislav went towards the doctor worried and asked.
Paula was also there looking at him.
They never expected this to happen, since childhood Paula trained Jason do be extremely resilient to any poison they could find, he made sure that in the future Jason would not worry about poisons, reasons why differenetiated, he knew that in the seas Jason always wanted to go, he would have to survive even when there wasn't any edible food around, he would eat poisonous food.
And that is what Jason did in the seas, he survived countless times by eating stuff normal people could not eat, as the years passed, his poison adaptibility got stronger and stronger.
"I am afraid this is some unknown poison i don't know about, before we find out where the poison comes from i can't treat him, my apologies." The doctor said this.
"AGHhhhh!!!" Bratislav fell back, someone caught her.
"How much can he take doctor?" Paula asked.
"Hm... from how unbelievably strong Jason's body is, i believe it will not be less than 3 weeks before he succumbs to this poison, if i have a plant Moly, i would be able to suppress the poison, but that plant can not be found anywhere in the surrounding territory... i am sorry, i don't know what to do here." The doctor said this and nodded, and he went away.
Paula gritted his teeth, his cane was even shattering.
Alex looked at all these and put his hand on his chin, poisons, he had dealt with those in the past, and not a normal one at that.
"Can i go in please?" He asked.
"Yes, you can go in Alex," Bratislav said whilst crying her eyes out.
Alex entered the shack.
--
He looked inside the shack and saw Jason on the bed unconscious.
He looked in actual pain, Alex didn't know how was this possible, when you were unconscious you would not be able to feel anything, if it was spasms he would understand but, Jason now looked sad, worried, and pained, He just shrugged that off and went close.
"Hm? he was stabbed?" Alex immediately noticed the stab wound on his chest that was bandaged.
Jason was taken by Boris when he went to pee in the ocean, Boris when he came back, he looked completely shaken, like he saw the most insane picture ever, he didn't say anything and simply put Jason there and went away.
Nobody had time to ask him what happened.
"Who would that be... or how would they be able to stab him, doesn't Jason have Neus thing?" Alex was conflicted.
The stab wound looked brutal, it was glowing pink and was extending to Jason's neck, and it was getting bigger and bigger.
"Pink... and can corrupt your body... damn, there are a lot of poisons that come to mind..." Alex scratched his head.
Then he took out a wooden bottle.
"Excuse me, Jason." Alex quizzed the world a little bit...
*BSHHHTTT*
Some of the purple poison came out from him.
"If i had a microscope, or even an encyclopedia, of poisons..." Alex pulled the lid on the bottle and walked away.
He didn't notice and hear when Jason quietly said...
"Rose..." This was as low as a whimper of a mouse.
--
"What happened Alex... does he look good?" Ivan immediately came rushing in.
"You can go in and sea..." Alex said.
"I... alright." Ivan also went in.
Everyone was worried.
Alex looked around and saw how people cared about each other, he could see actual pain in their eyes.
He then closed his eyes and opened them filled with confidence.
"Laszlo... please follow me," Alex asked Laszlo who was walking around worried.
Laszlo was confused but he followed Alex.
--
They went quite far down in the village and looked like they were going towards the big table that was just below the walls surrounding the village.
People put their things there to sort and kill or skin animals from the forest.
"What is wrong Alex? What do you need me for." Laszlo asked.
"Laszlo, you told me that you knew some medicine right?" Alex asked.
Laszlo was confused once again, but he nodded, he wasn't a medic or a Doctor, but he was the only one suitable in the village who could follow Jason on his journey, he knew few things about medicine.
"Then do you know about poisons?" Alex asked.
"Alex, i know you want to save Jason but, my teacher already checked him, we don't know what his poison is." Laszlo shook his head disappointed.
"No, i am asking you, if you can identify a few characteristics of a Poison," Alex asked.
"Hmmm.. of course... why do you ask." Laszlo followed Alex and they sat down on the table.
Alex took out the bottle and pulled the lid off it.
"Look, now tell me, what kind of plant this kind of purple poison??" Alex asked.
"Ven... wait... how do you know it's a poison?" Laszlo asked, but they never confirmed if this was poison or venom from some monster.
"Its different, if it was venom, Boris would not find Jason in the situation he was in, the venom of an animal like a snake can be very fast acting if it's not some rare breed, Jason looked like he was just stabbed and the wound expanded so much now, but Plants can have very different type of reaction, you saw it yourself, Jason was moving around, that is the poison attacking the nerves and making Jason jump up, it is also very slow acting and if you don't make some kind of special poison out of it, it can even take months to kill a person." Alex forgot he was in a different world and said this.
"Huh?" Laszlo pulled his head sideways and looked at Alex.
"Cough... anyway, please tell me what kind of plants can have this kind of purple poison?" Alex asked.
"Hmmm... there are many different plants you can look at and say they have purple poison... for example, Aconite, or Belladdonna... wait" Laszlo opened his eyes wide and rushed back.
"Aconite... hmmm... that is... oh damn..." Alex looked down and noticed the colors in the poison... they weren't just purple.
"So it's Aconite... was that so hard?" Alex smiled and sighed in relief.
