Chapter 948: Chapter 70 Cats Good, People Bad!_3
A sip of the drink turned his originally fair skin a tempting shade of rose red.
After so idle chit-chat, Luo En glanced outside the skylight at the night sky and said:
“It’s getting late; we have to hit the road early tomorrow. You should go back and rest.”
“And you?”
“I still have so things to do.”
Luo En turned his head, gazing somberly at the man and cat on the stone bed.
As Brynhild left with confusion written all over her face, Luo En closed the stone door, and the corners of his mouth lifted into an evil, gloomy arc under the reflection of the flas.

The next morning, Thor tossed and turned half-asleep, pulling the fuzzy, squishy thing in his arms even tighter, eliciting a comfortable moan in his dreams.
Wait a minute! Fuzzy, squishy?
A jolt passed through Thor, startling him awake. He opened his eyes to look at the thing in his arms.
At the sa ti, a pair of yellowish-brown snake-like vertical pupils also opened and t Thor’s gaze.
“Damn it!”
“ow!”
The man and cat exclaid in unison, instinctively attacking each other.
Thor punched Yengarde in the nose, and Yengarde thrashed its tail, now turned into a tail, hitting Thor’s left cheek.
“Bang! Bang!”
Almost at the sa ti, the previously entwined man and cat were each sent flying backwards, smashing into the stone wall.
They climbed out of the pile of gravel in a sorry state, feeling a sourness in their noses and swollen cheeks, with two sharp pains coming through simultaneously.
Two sets of pains?
The man and cat stared at each other with big eyes, looking at their bleeding noses and swollen cheeks, and couldn’t help but give each other a puzzled look.
“Go on, keep fighting, I’m still waiting for a good show,” Luo En egged on, with arms crossed and leaning against a stone column, with no good intentions.
However, the man and cat on stage already sensed sothing amiss and didn’t dare to make any rash moves.
After a mont of silence, Thor was the first to let his guard down. Rubbing his sore nose, he cautiously asked Luo En:
“What did you do to us last night?”
“Nothing much, just mixed so of your Divine Blood and engraved a shared curse mark on each of you.”
Luo En sipped his nectar, smiling and adding,
“The effects are ‘Pain Sharing’ and ‘Damage Splitting’. It’s a long road ahead, and it’s important to consider each other’s perspectives to get along well.”
So, this is your idea of considering each other’s perspective?
The man and cat looked resentfully at the smirking Evil God, internally scoffing at his unique thod of resolving their conflict.
“If you still want to fight, Brynhild and I won’t stop you. But if you agree to a ceasefire, then pack up and get ready to head out with to Hvagmir Spring for so healing.”
The man and cat glanced at each other and unanimously decided to set aside their grievances for now.
They had a conflict, yes, but it wasn’t to the point of life and death.
Besides, with the weird curse mark on their bodies, hitting the other was like hitting themselves. They weren’t masochists; there was no need to tornt themselves like that.
Having successfully diffused the tension in the team, Luo En called Brynhild pleasantly and they set off together.
After a few detours, the three people and the cat arrived at a misty pool.
The rich Life aura dispersed with the mist, and the injured Thor and Yengarde couldn’t help but utter comfortable groans just by taking a sniff.
Confirming the water from Hvagmir Spring was indeed beneficial, the man and cat couldn’t wait to jump into the pool and soak.
“Since we’re here, let’s give it a try too.”
Seeing this, Luo En also couldn’t resist the temptation and suggested to Brynhild.
Brynhild blushed and nodded in agreent, looking a little shy.
However, after Luo En led her to another secluded spring, he left on his own. Thor and Yengarde cramd together, and Brynhild’s blush faded, leaving a wave of gloom in her heart.
Though feeling down, she still shed her armor, stepped barefoot into the pool, and enjoyed the cleansing of the Hvagmir Spring water.
Water ripples spread upon the surface, expanding towards the entangled, mountainous roots of the World Tree.
And in the plant cavern ford by those roots of the World Tree, a pair of gold-red vertical pupils seed to sense the disturbance outside, and quietly opened.
