Chapter 54 Intermission 53
Chapter 54 53. Intermission
When Fisher struggled to open his eyes, the first thing he saw was the familiar ceiling in his compartment. He stared blankly at the ceiling for a long time, and then turned to look to his side. Unfortunately, there was nothing around him. He was the only one sleeping on the bed.
He sat up, only to find that his whole body was in severe pain. When he lowered his head, he realized that there were bandages everywhere on his body, but the person who used the bandages was probably an idiot. The bandages were wrapped thin and loose like a mummy, but at any rate It helped Fisher stop some of the bleeding so that he wouldn't bleed to death.
Moreover, his enhanced physique allowed his body to recover very quickly. In just one night, most of the wounds had scabbed over.
It's like the dragon race's incredible recovery ability.
"Fisher, wake up!"
Just when Fisher lowered his head and looked at himself, the door of his room was pushed open. Rafael stood at the door and looked at him with some joy. Just when he was about to speak, a loud voice behind Rafael said. Passed over.
"What, Fisher is awake? Let me see!"
"Lal!"
The petite Lal got out from under Rafael's body, and with her back against Rafael's gaze that wanted to get angry, she happily ran to Fisher's bedside,
"Fischer, wake up! Yesterday Master Rafael said that your bed was too small for fear of pressing on your wound, but Lal thought it was not too small, so I could lie down on it just by tucking my tail."
Rafael's face turned rosy. He originally wanted to rest with Fisher last night. Who knew that the bed in his room was a single bed. Although he could sleep on it, after all, Fisher was injured now, so She didn't do that. Who knew that Lar would shake out all at once.
"Lal, I asked you to wash yourself in the river outside, but you just didn't move, right?"
"I don't! Master Rafael! I don't want to wash it now, but Sylfasir and the others will definitely splash water on me! I promise!"
Looking at the noisy Lal, Fisher smiled, but after fighting all night, and now sleeping until noon, he suddenly felt very hungry. He remembered that there was some bread bought in Philon City next to his bedside table, so he reached for it, but found nothing.
Um? Where is my bread?
Before Fisher could speak, Lal, who was captured by Rafael, suddenly buried her face in Rafael's arms and remained motionless. Only a muffled voice came from her arms.
"Ah, Lal really wants to take a bath, how about going now?"
"."
Just as he said, Lal covered his ears and ran out of the door again and disappeared into the car.
As a result, Rafael and himself were the only ones left in Fisher's room. Rafael glanced at Fisher, who was naked from the waist up, and said as if he remembered something,
"Your clothes are all ruined. I took them off and put them over there, but I probably won't be able to put them back on. Everything inside is here."
Beside the bed was his wallet and a pack of Nari cigarettes and matches, but his two manuals were not among them. Fisher nodded, rubbed his body and said to Rafael,
"You go out first, I will come out after changing my clothes."
"Um."
When Rafael closed the door, Fisher rubbed his sore body and got up from the bed. He looked at his suit jacket that was hung on the hanger and was full of holes. He reached out and touched the two completion manuals in his underwear pocket. .
It's strange, obviously they were put together yesterday when I put them away, but now when I touch them, they are one on the left and one on the right. He didn't move, and others couldn't see it at all. Could it be possible that these two things would move on their own?
Fisher took out the two manuals and went to the changing room next door to change into a suit. This was already his last custom-made suit. He didn't expect that when he came to the Southern Continent with no money and no clothes, he would burn quickly. It's stained because of battle holes. If I had known it would be such a hassle, I wouldn't have worn the suit.
After pondering for a long time, Fisher hung up his suit jacket and prepared to wear a lined white shirt.
The stomach was quite hungry. When Fisher got out of the carriage, he realized that they were now staying by a creek on the edge of a forest. However, Hilfasher and the others had almost finished washing and were holding bath towels from the changing room. After wiping his hair, Milzeton lit a fire with leaves and was grilling meat.
"Master Fisher, you're awake, come over and have some breakfast."
"Thank you. Where are we now?"
"Ah, Lord Rafael has been heading north, so he shouldn't have deviated from his route."
Mill handed a piece of meat of unknown species to Fisher, and then said,
"No one is chasing us, but we heard human cannon fire in the distance last night, so Sir Rafael stopped moving forward."
"so."
Fisher looked at the forest in the distance. According to what Philon said before, there should be people from the Shivali City Lord Alliance here because the mines are going to war with the tribes here.
Fisher decided to rest here for a day and wait for his injury to get better before moving on to avoid any accidents.
"Fisher, come here and see, Lar has learned to swim!"
Lal's loud shouting came from the shallow stream. Next to him, Mir's face turned rosy, he stood up and cursed at Lal,
"Lal! You're not wearing any clothes, and I told you not to swim over here!"
"But I want Fisher to rub my scales."
Rub. Rub the scales?
This kind of thing can only be done by a pair of mates!!
Mir's face flushed and he said nothing, but Rafael, who was beside the stream, was frightened and told Lar to swim back to the other side to wash.
Fisher didn't look over there, but just kept chewing meat.
"Sorry, Lord Fisher, Lar is really too naughty."
"It's okay."
Unexpectedly, after breakfast, Lar, who was naughty and lively just now, became listless, wrapped in a bath towel and shaking, and couldn't even open his eyes. When they stopped yesterday, it was almost early in the morning, and they basically didn't sleep much. Mir and Rafael were fine, but Lar, the youngest, really couldn't hold on.
After Mir helped her wipe her hair, she prepared to take a nap with them, and Fisher took a breath outside the carriage.
The forest was unexpectedly quiet during the day, as if the battlefield between humans and goblins was a distance away from here, so it didn't disturb the peace here.
Taking advantage of this break, Fisher's mind was flooded with some details of all the things that happened before, such as the Soul Completion Manual that Filorn gave him, and the terrifying creature that took away their souls in the end.
When Filorn handed him the Soul Completion Manual, he said that he should handle the technology himself. Does this technology refer to his technology of extracting and using souls?
It seems that I have to study this Soul Completion Manual.
Fisher wanted to take out the Soul Completion Manual from his arms, but he only touched the Demi-Human Girl Completion Manual on the left side where the manuals were placed.
"Huh?"
He reached to the right again, and then found the Soul Manual squeezed in the corner on the edge of the right pocket.
Just when he was wondering, there was a sound of footsteps beside him. He turned around and saw that Rafael stood beside him at some point. It seemed that she also wanted to wash her body. She was wrapped in a simple bath towel, her eyes were evasive, and her face was flushed.
Fortunately, the tail did not move, otherwise the simple bath towel could not support her beautiful body.
"I want to take a bath, too."
"."Fisher looked at her unintentionally revealed whiteness, like apples and cream that were tempting to taste. Fisher's eyes darkened for a second, but he still stood up and prepared to leave. He was now covered with wounds, and it would be bad if he was injured again.
"Okay, then I'll go back first."
As a result, when he walked past her, she grabbed his sleeve. When he turned his head, he could only see her profile.
"Wait a minute, help me, help me wipe the scales, I can't reach my tail and back."
"Okay."
"."
The stream was not deep, even if Rafael half-knelt in it, he could only sink below her chest. She didn't completely untie the towel, only revealing the scales on her back and tail.
"How to do it?"
Her smooth and dense scales were in complete shape, spread thinly on her white back, and her tail also rose above the surface of the stream, swaying mischievously from time to time, so that Fisher always looked through the stream and saw the towel floating under the water.
"Use water. Help me wipe it..."
Fisher took the water with his hands and wet her scales little by little to clean them. The scales of the dragon race were very hot, and they felt like a small heater. Wherever his big hands touched, the scales there trembled slightly, but they never stood up.
The cool spring water surged with steam like a hot spring, wrapping them up. At this moment, Rafael turned back with a slightly red face and saw Fisher who was concentrating on helping her clean the scales.
"Fisher"
"What?"
He answered expressionlessly, wiping her usually active tail with both hands. Now the tail was well-behaved, trembling comfortably from time to time, but no water splashed.
Rafael didn't say anything, but just reached out and grabbed the collar of his shirt to pull him closer, and then kissed him on the lips, which made Fisher's expression melt a little.
The kiss lasted for a while, and Rafael finally let him go, panting, and turned around to hug her towel, so Fisher couldn't see her expression.
"Thank you. Thank you for helping me wipe my scales."
"."
"From now on, you can only help me wipe my scales."
The last sentence was whispered, but the forest was quiet after all, so Fisher heard it clearly. I don't know if it was because Rafael's words just now about him helping her wipe her scales reminded Rafael of this matter, so she spoke like this at this moment.
"Okay."
Hearing Fisher's affirmative answer, the slightly wet tail slowly wrapped around his trouser legs, unwilling to let go for the time being.
The fog was thick and the stream was gurgling.
This week happened to be on the recommendation, so I was going to offer a bonus for extra chapters.
Currently, there are two chapters per day, about 6,000 words, and then 5,000 bonus plus one chapter, limited to one chapter per day, and the extra chapters will be saved until they are put on the shelves, and the extra chapters will indicate whose extra chapters are to avoid confusion.
Finally, I would like to ask everyone to read and vote for this book. This is very important for this book. Thank you very much for your support!
