Chapter 296 - Taking A Small Break To Assess Things Through (2/2)

She looked down into the reflection of the water, as she saw herself, her face really looked tired…

”Abyss, how are you feeling?” asked Belphegor.

”Oh, I am fine… Don't worry about it, Belphegor.” Said Abyss.

”You're my lord's future wife, and also a good friend of mine too, so I am worried about you. It is hard to lead people, but you've been doing a great job so far.” Said the gentle skull.

Abyss smiled gently.

”Thanks… It is harder than I had expected… But I am doing my best to not disappoint Chaos when he's finally back.” Said Abyss.

”I am sure that Chaos-sama will be proud of what you've done. How about you come with the rest of us so we can discuss things better around the bonfire?” asked Belphegor.

”Sure.” Said Abyss.

Abyss was secluding herself because she felt ashamed of herself, she didn't wanted to look into the eyes of her friends due to having disappointed them due to her lack of sensitivity with them. But it seemed that they had already forgiven her, and Belphegor simply wanted to bring her to talk with everyone else again.

Meanwhile, Ifrit was within Abyss Divine Realm, and was currently finishing the stew that Lilith had prepared for him.

”How do you feel now? Better?” she asked, with a sweet smile.

”Yeah, I feel rather well now… Thanks for being so considerate, Lilith…” sighed Ifrit.

”Don't worry about it… How are your Pressure Points?” asked Lilith, trying to touch his shoulder but Ifrit reacted rather painfully to it.

”Ungh… I-It still hurts… Certain areas near these Pressure Points become very sensitive to pain.” Sighed Ifrit.

”I-I see… Do you think you can fight? If not, it would be better if you stay here for now… I won't let you fight if you are not at tour 100%, did you hear me?” asked Lilith.

”Yeah… I know I cannot fight in this state…” said Ifrit.
