Chapter 131 (2/2)

iverting its face. Seems like I caught its attention, I just need to give it a final push.

Oh, how about salt seasoned grilled camel meat?

I feel like the fatty texture of the hump meat will taste great with some salt.

Huh? its reaction wasn’t to promising. With [[Telepathy]] you can send words over rather then say them, so is there a way to send over images?

I picture dividing a camel and sprinkling some salt on it. Then I imagine biting into the cooked camel and chewing.

“pefu! pefu!”

The ball rabbit bounces and approaches me.

You bought it.

Alright, this guy is simple.

I asked the ball rabbit to ask Nina where she wanted to go. If I don’t know this then I don’t know how to proceed from here.

“…..pefu”

The ball rabbit hangs its ears down with force and then inflates its cheeks. It glances at Nina and then quickly returns its eyes to me.

“pefu! pefu!”

The ball rabbit really doesn’t like the idea of parting with Nina.

It can’t be helped.

My [[Dragon Scale Powder]] is poisonous to Nina.

I don’t know how long she could last.

If strange effects start to show up without properly preparing then it’s likely that Nina will be too weak to even leave the desert.

The ball rabbit looks at Nina and their eye sights meet.

“Nya….hey, ball?”

Nina picks up the ball rabbit and stares at it from close up. Only few words were said at first but now they are just staring at each other. Ah, [[Telepathy]].

After a while they finally finished talking, and Nina gently raised her face towards me.

“I, don’t know where I should go…”

Nina says in a hoa.r.s.e voice as it trails off like being carried off in the wind with her face turned down.

Well…this is.

Its obvious even from the case with the centipede that things were pretty bad in that wall surrounded city, and it seems that even if she had a home, due to certain circ.u.mstances she was sold away. That’s one a.s.sumption but it’s still a difficult pattern.

In the first place, I’m not familiar with the land around here. I also can’t afford to travel slowly with the three of us looking for a suitable place somewhere. Although I still think that it will be better to take her back to that wall surrounded city, but that’s really only the last resort.

“Oh, wait, Mr. Dragon! Is it okay….if I stay by your side?”

Nina closed her mouth and interrupts herself while looking at me with uneasy eyes.

I would rather do that, but I don’t know when the negative effects of [[Dragon Scales]] will start taking place. I cannot bear Nina’s eyes and unintentionally divert my eyes.

“I, I’m sorry nya…for being annoying. Even though I can’t do anything, and just eating meals…”

Nina begins feeling smaller and smaller.

The ball rabbit reaches out its ears and gently wipes Nina’s eyes. The ball rabbit then turns around in Nina’s arms and gazes at me with quivering eyes.

That, I don’t know what I can do when you stare at me with such eyes!

If you have [[Telepathy]] then you should know what I’m thinking!

I could see the tears welling up in Nina and the ball rabbit, but I still have to do it. For now, I could only try my hand at searching for a village somewhere….Huh?

I get a bad feeling and I focus on [[Presence Sense]].

I feel several signs from the other side of the desert. I can’t see the figure yet, but there is no doubt that something is getting closer to us. I don’t know the difference in stats from me since they are still far away, but using [[Presence Sense]] I could tell that it’s not a small fish. Its speed is also almost equal to the huge centipede.

Why, why are you running to this place?

Maybe because of the slugs rain clouds that are still in the sky they came looking for water?
