Chapter 559: Chapter 286: End of the Sword Saint (Part 2)
After that, she really beca a true troublemaker.
But even though Li Ang later learned of her strength, he never coveted this part of her.
Well, you can’t say he never considered facing difficulties together, but her rather erratic thinking and completely self-centered behavior made cooperation impossible. It was like the first ti he experienced the feeling of a mother hanging a pancake around a child’s neck before leaving ho in a story. Every ti before a mission, he would prepare food and water, genuinely worried that her kind of living style would one day starve her to death.
Looking back later, he really didn’t know how the feelings between them had developed earlier, and he even once doubted if there were any feelings between them. But providing food and shelter and care seed to make his indulgence unreasonable...
Even so, she eventually pulled that stunt by suddenly disappearing, which left him heartbroken.
Whenever he spoke, it always seed like luna didn’t take it seriously, but whether or not others listened, at least he enjoyed the sound of his own voice.
luna wanted to say sothing, but before she could open her mouth, her stomach growled.
A group of people gathered around to listen to her stomach rumble. Soone like Dorothy, a delicate young girl, couldn’t keep her expression in check, and Otto frowned, while ii covered her face and squatted down.
Yet she herself felt nothing from the gazes of others.
"Li Ang, I’m hungry."
luna looked at Li Ang with expectant eyes.
When at the restaurant, ii had eaten for free, so naturally, Li Ang hadn’t ordered anything for luna, and so she hadn’t eaten.
"Didn’t you buy anything yourself?"
"I spent all my money, you said not to take things randomly."
"What about back in your world?" Li Ang had never asked this question before, and only now knowing it was a broken world did he start to sketch images in his mind.
"People living in tents gathered to cook, and when they saw , they would share their food with ."
"That sounds like a refugee shelter." ii whispered.
Dorothy grinned and said, "They probably took you for a vagrant."
Li Ang rubbed his forehead. Back then, he couldn’t understand this woman at all, but now he sowhat grasped the reasons behind so of her behaviors. It sounded like her world wasn’t any better than ii’s. Regularly traversing the remnants of destroyed civilizations and starting to wander at less than ten years old, it was indeed impossible for her to communicate like a normal person.
"What did you eat before coming to ngze Island?"
"Fruits, rabbits."
"Why did you also eat rabbits?"
"Tasty."
Li Ang glanced at Akuya, whose pink-haired girl had already balled her fists.
In front of so many people, especially traditional elders like Otto, Li Ang had no choice but to take care of her. He didn’t prepare a whole al, just gave her so of the fruits Diana sent earlier and a small portion of the supplies stored in the Dinsional Rift, including canned at from various herbivorous animals.
In full view, luna started eating with reckless abandon, her mouth small so she couldn’t take big bites, but her manner was as fierce as a tiger, quickly ssily getting food all over her face.
Li Ang looked around. The people surrounding him were either Zoe and Akuya, openly mocking, or Farina frowning in dismay, or An and ALulu, expressionless and lost in their thoughts, or ii, covering her face in embarrassnt at her own disgrace, and Otto, who expected Li Ang to clean up after luna.
In the end, he was compelled to handle the situation.
He took out a towel, dampened it with water, and during her eating breaks, wiped off the parts ssily covered, then sat quietly to wait for her to finish.
"Finished eating."
luna opened her hands and sat upright facing Li Ang, closing her eyes.
Li Ang used the towel to wipe off the remaining food crumbs around her mouth, then cleaned her hands using a fresh towel.
Just looking at her hands, they were beautifully artistic, perhaps due to her adept use of magic power, as she never overburdened her hands, so there were almost no calluses from the sword hilt. In contrast, Zoe’s hands, although fair and tender, when held, had so toughness about them.
As he cleaned her, luna’s throat seed to hum in faint pleasure, as if she were a large dog nestling by his side.
Dorothy gritted her teeth and said, "What does this an? Is this already a regular custom?"
"Grr! I want Li Ang to do this for
next ti." Zoe said angrily.
If Dorothy had seen her usually so easily agitated, she’d have made a teasing remark, but this ti she understood and said nothing.
After Li Ang finished, luna opened her eyes, looked around, then stood up.
Originally still muttering, Dorothy took a half step back. luna didn’t look at her but instead spoke to Otto, "I’m full now, so let’s fight."
"Was she not striking earlier because she was hungry? When I’m hungry, I also have no energy." Zoe wondered.
"That’s not it," Dorothy pursed her lips, "She just had a mood boost after being pampered."
"Oh?" At the ntion of a swordfight, the old Sword Hero’s interest was piqued. Li Ang saw he originally had sothing to say, probably intending to advise luna on how to live, but now he was too eager to bother.
The Black haired Female Sword Hero imdiately drew the long sword from her waist, and as the sword’s light manifested, a chill reminiscent of deep water enveloped the surroundings.
Savor it carefully, this cold was akin to the threat as the sword edge neared. It was not rely the power of the Water Attribute but also an extrely sharp Sword Intent.
Magic power naturally slicked her black hair back, revealing her breathtakingly beautiful face, but at that mont, her beauty paled in comparison to her formidable presence.
At this mont, standing before them wasn’t a helpless, ssy young girl, but a monster that had survived countless dire and perilous battles.
