Chapter 78 - 78. Waking Up II (2/2)
Hong er: ” It is not their fault. It was me that insisted on waking you up.”
Weisheng stares at Hong er's face for a while and nodded his head.
Weisheng: ” En.”
Qiyi and Qier were relieved that Weisheng believed Hong er's words. They gave Hong er a thumb up in their heart. The teenage boy with another little boy behind him were holding a tray of food. Qiyi took the tray from the little boy and Huayun took the tray from the teenage boy, the teenage boy peeked at Hong er's door. Huayun slightly moved her body to block his vision and coldly looked at the teenage boy.
Huayun: ” We will definitely pass the food to our Young Miss. Do you need anything else?”
The teenage boy noticed Huayun's cold look, he took a step back and nervously laughed.
The teenage boy: ” N-no, then I'll excuse myself.”
Huayun: ” En.”
The teenage boy took the little boy's hand and went downstairs, he let out a sigh and patted his chest. The little boy looked at him weirdly.
Little boy: ” Brother, what's wrong?”
Teenage boy: ” Uhh… n-nothing.”
Teenage boy: ' Omg so scary…'

Hong er went back to her room to eat her breakfast as she had to leave Weisheng's room too because Weisheng needed to change his pants. They ate their breakfast and set out to continue their journey. When they were paying the inn's fee, they heard the people that sat at the table across the counter.
P1: ” Hey, do you know the old man that sells buns around that corner?”
P2: ” Yes, what happened? I heard many people talked about him.”
P1: ” Uhm, early at the morning, the Skull Gang robbed his food stall but suddenly a woman appeared and slashed all of them.”
P2: ” Who is the woman?”
P1: ” I don't know, because I heard this from the people that lived around there. They said that when they fought the woman, a thick fog covered their vision. Everything was gone after the thick fog dispersed.”
P2: ” Wasei~ So mysterious.”
P1: ” And you know what's amazing?”
P2: ” What? what?”
P1: ” The bodies of the Skull Gang disappeared, not even a blood stain left on the road. And the old man's food stall that was destroyed became new and pretty.”
P2: ” Wasei~”
P1: ” And the most amazing thing is that the old man's illnesses were magically healed. Now he could move freely.”
P2: ” Wahhh~ I am curious who's the woman.”
P1: ” The old man said that it was Goddess of Light's reincarnation.”
P2: ” Why did he think so?”
P1: ” He said that the woman was very kind and wore white clothes like how Goddess of Light usually portrayed. And how could his illnesses just be cured like that, it must be the one and only Light Magic.”
P2: ” Hhmm~ makes sense.”
Weisheng curiously looked at Hong er that was leisurely standing in front of the counter. He knew that it was Hong er's doing but he decided to not meddle with it. They left after Weisheng sent a murderous gaze towards the teenage boy. The teenage boy trembled in fear as he tried to talk with Hong er. The more he talked to Hong er, the scarier Weisheng's glares got. He sighed in relief after Weisheng and Hong er left.
Teenage boy: ' Mah….I will give up on her.'
