The Fate Of The World Is In My Hands, But All I Want To Do Is Eat! Chapter 123: Maybe melted organs and a split head
Alice coughed and coughed and then looked up to find three people staring at her like they had seen a ghost.
There was Mark, Devon, and Miss Stella.
"What? Is there a party that I didn’t know of?" She asked, rubbing her throat and they crowded her.
But Miss Stella beat all of them to it and hugged Alice, pressing her head to her bloated yet soft chest.
"Oh, thank goodness. I was so worried." She said. "It’s a miracle, honestly."
"Alice, are you okay?" Both guys ended up asking simultaneously and it got the other irritated. They exchanged fierce glances before turning to worry about Alice.
"Yes, I’m fine. What’s going on?" She asked. "I thought Miss Stella was only going to be here by Saturday to give my uniform." She said. "And why are you two looking at like that, I’m not dead, so cut it out."
"You can’t bla them," Miss Stella said. "Especially given how much blood you threw up."
"Wait, I threw up blood?" She asked, forgetting that she had heard quite a lot from Leo and threw up blood, as well as bleeding from her eyes, nose, and ears.
Her head also felt like it was being ripped so there was a need for concern if she was seen in that state.
"Oh!" She exclaid, finally recalling all that happened. "Ah, if I say I’m completely fine and that was nothing, you’re not going to believe , are you?"
They all shook their heads and she sighed.
She felt fine. Self-healing must’ve kicked in while she was unconscious, and these guys seed to have been taking care of her all the while.
Wait... Her eyes widened.
"How long have I been unconscious?" She asked.
The last ti she fell unconscious, though it was thanks to the monster at she ate, she stayed asleep for an entire month. So this ti, she was worried she slept for long.
She had an appointnt with Micheal on Saturday night and had to have dinner with the association chairman on Sunday evening. She couldn’t miss those.
"Don’t worry, you were unconscious for a short ti. Almost 24 hours." Miss Stella explained. "You were found unconscious yesterday. Around midnight. That is a few hours after now." She said, and Alice sighed in relief. She didn’t miss anything. "Anyway, as soon as Mark found you like this, he called right away. I don’t usually treat awakeneds just because they coughed up blood and fell unconscious. Cause, what are potions for, right? But the tone of his voice was..."
"Ahem!" Mark cleared his throat and coughed, intentionally interrupting her and she laughed softly.
Alice looked at him, wondering if he had a sea urchin stuck in his throat. What was with that cough?
"Anyway, it was pretty serious and it was so late too. And given you had done a lot during the gate break, I decided to co take a look at you."
Alice sighed. She wondered what Miss Stella found.
Maybe lted organs and a split head, because it sure felt like that was what happened before she passed out.
She folded her legs in a lotus position, dropped her elbow on one knee, and rested her chin on it lazily.
"But it was strange how I didn’t find anything wrong with you." Miss Stella said, and Alice’s face fell from her palm.
She didn’t find anything? Was her self-healing that fast? Or were they just the ones who arrived late?
"It was so odd that I needed to conduct countless tests but I couldn’t find anything. You were as healthy as one could be." She said, tilted her head, and said, "Perhaps too healthy. Do you know anything about it?"
Alice blinked, surprised. If she didn’t find anything, what was she going to say that they would believe her?
She glanced at Mark, who was still worriedly looking at her, and then at Devon. A sudden mory from her dream flashed through her head, Devon smiling and saying,
"I want you to live,"
It made her insides feel quite sensitive but not in a bad way. It was a little too familiar to ignore.
*Alice,* Leo called.
’Ah, glad that you could co online at such a ti. Tell , what happened after I passed out.’ she asked.
*It’s as they said. Mark found you with blood around,* he said. They tried to find out what happened, but there was nothing because, in the first place, your backlash is an ’in the mont’ penalty and not sothing that would keep you wounded.*
’Speak in simple terms, will you?’
*In other words, as soon as you passed out, you healed up right away.* He said. *I wanted to clean up the ss while you were unconscious but for so reason, I couldn’t possess your body.*
’Why not?’
*I don’t know. I just couldn’t.* He said. *Did you happen to have any vision of your past life?*
"Hm, I did." She said, subconsciously saying it out loud.
"Excuse ?" Miss Stella asked. She had been waiting for Alice to collect her thoughts and talk about what had happened, so her sudden words made her think she was talking to her.
"Oh, sorry. Wrong passage." She said, confusing Miss Stella.
Mark and Devon imdiately realized she was talking to the voice in her head but what was it about? What sort of conversation were they having?
Could the voice in her head tell her what had happened to her? They couldn’t ask but only watched her as she conversed silently.
*Then it seems your powers are growing. After that fight with the crimson griffin boss and the eclipse dragon, your strength seed to have increased, and so did your stamina, your newly acquired skill, and your perception. And the more powerful you get, the closer you are to finding out the entire truth. And the closer you are to that, the sooner I can manifest with a real body.*
’And how does that have to do with you not being able to possess my body? I an, you’re practically living in .’
*That is, we will be separated. having a real body ans I will need a great deal of energy to fully possess your body.*
’And energy ans food. So, you’ll have to be eating as much as , won’t it?’
*I believe so. But for now, I can’t possess your body. It ans my manifestation is near.*
Alice nodded, fully understanding what they had at hand.
But... What was she going to tell them about the blood she threw up, as well as the bleeding from her eyes and her ears?
