Chapter 12 : The azure frost orchid
THE NEXT DAY
|As I opened my eyes, I was met with Haoxuan's gaze startling me.|
Oh so you finally decide to wake up.
"For how long were you watching me sleep you creep! "
Long enough to see that you drool a whole river when you sleep. It was quite the sight, to bad I was the only one here to see it.
GASP
" I do not drool That must be my sweat ! "
'Sure you don't '
[ Shut it !]
| He looks at me with a sarcastic look on his face.|
Sure.
[ I hate that look on your face, I want to slap you so bad right now.]
Get up don't you want to explore the cave?
"Of course I do"
Then get your lazy bum up.
" Hold on give me a sec"
| I give my limbs a good stretch before getting up.|
" Alright now we can go"
...
" Why do you keep looking at me like that. Am I that pretty ? I know I look like a fairy but- "
No you're not. Definitely not. You are insulting insult the fairies by saying that.
" Oh my that hurts my feelings man. Well you don't look any better anyways."
It's because your eyes are not meant to see beauty neither handsomeness and hurting your feelings was my intention.
"YOU LITTLE -!"
You wanna go or not it's going to be noon soon.
[ I swear when I get stronger I'll beat some respect into you! I'll tolerate it...for now.]
"Let's just go I've had enough of you idiot."
|He glares at me|
Choose your words carefully !
"CHoOSe yOuR WoRds CaREfuLly! Who are you my father? Tch I don't take orders from you"
|Before he could even says anything else I rush deeper in the cave without looking back.|
WHERE DO YOU THINK YOU'RE GOING ! RUNNING AWAY LIKE A COWARD ! COME BACK HERE!
...
" Hey you didn't have to hit me that hard geez"
If I hit you hard then it means that you deserved it.
"Ughh no I didn't"
{Yes you did}
" You just have serious anger issues."
| After walking for a while, we find a place with some light blue light glowing in the distance but the closer we got the colder it would get. I could see Haoxuan shaking really badly.|
" Hey maybe I should go alone you clearly can't go any further"
I-I'm ff fine I-It's not th- that c-cold.
"Can you stop being so stubborn ! Stay here I'll go ALONE I don't want to drag your ass back if you get hypothermia you are too damn heavy"
|He glares at me|
"What are giving me that look for am I wrong?"
|Speechless,he remains silent, as he was too cold to even say anything else.|
[ That's what i though, now I should hurry up and get to that glowing thing whatever that is it should be good...right?]
...
[ Damn this place is really cold even I'm starting to shiver]
"|After a while I finally made it to the place where the light came from.|
"I'm finally here...Huh that flower looks like an orchid, why is it blue I've never seen a blue orchid before and it looks beautiful"
|The closer I get the more pressure i feel pressing down on me. After a while I took the orchid and flopped to the ground.|
" Huff ! that.was.tiring I think I should go back I don't want Haoxuan to worry not as if he would anyways that furball only knows how to make me mad"
'Host you do realise that you are also a furball right'
[ Don't be a smartass with me when I talk to YOU you never respond and out of all times you communicate you decide to be smart with me or just make snarky remarks I didn't ask for your opinion system !]
|As I was getting back I see Haoxuan in front of the cave.|
"Haoxuan look at what I've found!"
"He turns around and looks at me when his stare trails from my face to the orchid in my mouth his eyes lit up with surprise."
That's an Azure frost orchid! Quick get deeper into the cavs the orchid's aura might attract nearby beasts!
"Ok but what does it do it just looks like a pretty flower to me"
Are you dumb can't you feel the aura around it, it's so dense, even a fly would be attracted to this thing because of its aura.That thing is a very rare herb especially in these parts.
[First her and now this orchid these two are both out of place,this can't be a coincidence right?]
"Honestly if you keep talking like that I might actually mistake you as a scholar. By it's name it sounds like it's suitable for me. Can I eat it?"
Do you want to suffer immense pain cause if you do eat it in one go I won't stop you.
" You heartless creature, fine I won't eat it but why can't I ?"
You are not strong enough to absorb the power in that thing and you're too young if you take it now you might as well die.
" Then what do we do with it ?"
Guess you'll have to let it rot you can't eat it anyways and that thing doesn't suit me so I also cannot eat it.
[ Or I could just put it in my inventory with the other stuff, I won't do it when he's looking or he might get suspicious of me. Let's do it when we go to sleep and I should also find another place to sleep cause last night I couldn't absorb enough moonlight]
"After looking around and calculating where the exact location of where the moonlight would hit, I lay down and take a tiny nap for the evening."
