125 Chapter 120 : Grand master Glia! (1/2)
” Ding! Host slays the abyss demon! ”
” Ding! Host earns 1000 RP! ”
” Ding! Host is rewarded with 1000 SP! ”
” Ding! Host levels up! ”
” Ding! Host enters the first refinement stage!”
” Ding! Host...
” Wait!~~~ ”
All of a sudden, Mark stood up only to spot that he was no longer present in the wretched mansion he visioned.
He found himself to be present in a spacious room, which was more decorated and more fancier than the one he once rested
His wounds were patched up perfectly, and he was standing on top a soft bed, encrypted with a potent healing array. Which was apparently treating his inner wounds.
” Lie down! ”
” Your internals are yet to be healed! ” Cela who was present at the scene bellowed out before rushing towards him.
” Ah!~~ ”
As if all his internals are set in a rapid alarm, his body pained sharply, which made him fall back to the same bed he rose from.
” Twelve hours... no, it might take a day or two at this rate to heal your wounds! ”
Cela who was examining his internals spelled out with a worried face.
She then continued stating ” I don't know what forbidden magic you used to save that girl, but it made your body pathetic.
Had I been a minute late, probably... your body would had turned to a cripple by now! ”
” So... never use that thing again.
Would there be an another cela like me to save you again? ”
She was particularly a bit harsh on mark, but it was for his own well being to begin with.
” How's he? Is he going to be alright? ”
Xena who just came to the scene had exclaimed out with a worrisome face.
” Going to be alright? ”
Cela raised her voice a little, and was a little bit hostile towards Xena.
” This boy had all his internals damaged, bones broken and cultivation being almost crippled!
” How is he going to be alright? Good thing that he's an abnormal mana user, if not for that his life would had been expired to begin with! ”
Without paying any regard to her nobility, cela was scolding her as a superior.
She belonged to the church, and even empress had to be on guard while facing the almighty pope.
So when she had the title of a devine lady, who was top in hierarchy, almost a few ranks below Pope.
Does she still have to pay respect to Xena, when her mood was not right?
” Devine lady Cela, but our... ”
” Stop! ”
Before the old captain in red robes could talk on behalf of his lady, he was ordered to stop by Xena.
” Tell me what should do? ” She asked Xena straight forwardly.
” Well... nurse him well! ” Waving her arm upwards, Cela exclaimed out.
” If not for him being an interesting kid, I wouldn't even had exited my mansion to begin with.
Right now I had an important thing to do, I left my work half finished earlier. Hope you could give a way for this Cela to exit. ”
Bang!
Stomping her cane to the floor, she started walking out.
” Ah! I forgot this thing! ” Tossing a medicine pouch to Xena she muttered out.
” Soak it in hot water before smearing it on his wounds!
You can ignore that part, but the little struggling soul in bed would not like to continue bearing that nerve wrecking pain right? ”
” Smear the medicine? ”
” The hell! She asked princess to smear the medicine... ” The old captain in red robes cursed cela internally.
Fifteen was the right age for a nobel to get married or betrothed at the least.
Had Xena smeared the medicine with her very two hands, wouldn't her reputation of being pure be affected from then?
* Note: ( He didn't know what Xena had to do while they were traveling through the space creates by that crack in the void! )
” Master! let me... ” Before he could exclaim his words again, Xena bellowed ” Old dog, shut up for a second will ya? ”
” Don't say that her adolescence had started kicking in, and a seed of love had been implanted in her heart? ”
The old captain exclaimed internally with an excited face, if his hypothesis was correct, this man growling in pain might be the key to change the character of Xena.
Xena then walked straight towards mark, soaked the medicines in water bath, before smearing the pasted mixture over the bear skin of him thoroughly.
” Ah!~~ ”
All of a sudden, Mark's temperature started rising sharply, his body was turning red with steams of vapours exiting out the openings on his face.
The nerves in his body were bulging like thin pipes over his entire body.
He was struggling hard over the soft bed, and grabbed the bed sheet in his palms tightly by the nerve wracking pain.
Black steams of vapour was comming out the pores in his skin, which slowly darkened the room he was present currently.
Put!
As if all things that happened earlier was a mere illusion to begin with, mark once again fallen back asleep, with the black gas which dissipated in air, shortly following it.
” The medicine seems to work well! ” the old captain exclaimed out excitingly.
” Old dog why are you excited? ” Xena asked up being puzzled.
He was her servant, worrying about her might be explainable, but getting excited after spotting a stranger get healed, she was confused a little.
” Princess, when the master is getting healed wouldn't the servant of his be excited about it? ”
Raising his eye brows a little, the old captain exclaimed out with a cunning smile, as if what he said was natural.
” Who's master... who's servant? ” Xena questioned angrily, though she got a hunch of what he was trying to say, she was playing ignorant.
” I think this person might become my princess's man! ” Old captain in red robes exclaimed out straight forwardly.
” Cough! Cough! Old dog, What nonsense are you taking about?
This Milton boy is not yet eligible to walk the journey of life with me! ”
Xena exclaimed out with a reddened face, before walking out the room hastly.
” Not eligible yet... didn't she mean to say that when he becomes eligible, she'd gladly accept him! ”
As if a major mystery had been unfolded before his eyes, he left the room with a wide smile over his face.
