NOVEL WEB Chapter 172
Chapter 172 – Even Getting Out of Bed Became Impossible…
Then, recalling just a short while ago… It seemed like she had unconsciously grabbed Bai Yu’s hands out of happiness, and Fei Ren’s face turned even redder.
Bai Yu also appropriately showed a blushing, embarrassed look. After all, his current character was a very innocent young boy, so there was no reason for him not to show a flustered expression when a very cute little girl suddenly approached!
Although this also caused his own body’s chest to be tightly squeezed by Meng Yue, Bai Yu planned to severely discipline this ungrateful cat girl later! He also felt that the room’s temperature had risen higher than before…
Why? Do you really like me like this, Miss Judgment?
Standing behind the sofa, always ready to serve the master, Judgment, under Meng Yue and Ling Li’s纠缠环绕 around Bai Yu, did not bite her teeth and tremble uncontrollably as she had in the past. Instead, she concentrated her gaze on Bai Yu in the projection… Her breathing quickened.
Innocent and ignorant… Although I know you’re acting, if I were to truly turn you into this kind of appearance! If you really became this kind of personality… Then I would surely have no difficulty turning you into my possession!
But, in a sense, you’ve already started to depend on me now. Though you haven’t realized it yourself… But that day, when I was only one minute late to your room, you didn’t even want to put on your shoes yourself. An unconscious action that seems natural for ordinary people to slip their feet into shoes, yet you needed me to come for it…
Of course, this isn’t enough! This isn’t enough! It’s still not enough!
One day — I will make it so that without my help, even simple things like getting out of bed become impossible for you!
If that happens~~~ I can surely monopolize you forever!
Magic Core Pollution Level 20% → 30%
—————–
After a long period of silence, Bai Yu finally broke the deadlock first.
“It’s fine… I know my body well. It definitely won’t have any problems from just a few shots.”
To this, Bai Yu used the resolute tone he learned from Fei Ren and said, “Besides, I can’t allow myself to just lie in bed waiting for results while you’re working hard. Would you be willing to do that if it were you?”
“If it were me…”
Hearing this, Fei Ren immediately imagined herself injured and Meng Yue going to fight alone. If it were the previous Meng Yue, it might have been okay, but the current Meng Yue… Fei Ren would never let her go alone! Even if it meant struggling with her injured body, she must go and contribute her share!
“Is it because I’m not strong enough to make you worry?”
Fei Ren lowered her head slightly, her lips curling into a bitter smile. “If I could have been strong enough back then to block that iron ball without your help, would you be able to lie here and wait for good news from me now?”
“Huh? How did you come to such a conclusion?”
Bai Yu was momentarily stunned by Fei Ren’s thoughts, but he persisted, “In any case… I can’t let you take risks alone!”
“Alright then…”
With a helpless nod, Fei Ren then said firmly, “Don’t worry… No matter what happens, I will protect you with my life!”
“I feel the same,” Bai Yu echoed with the same resolve, “I will definitely help you and protect you with my life!”
The two exchanged heartfelt looks and smiled at each other. According to protocol, Bai Yu should naturally put on his shoes and stand up, then go to get dressed… However, at that moment, he hesitated for five seconds due to some reason.
“What’s wrong?” Fei Ren asked with concern, “Do you suddenly feel unwell?”
“No, nothing.”
Thus, Bai Yu, after a long time, put on his shoes himself and then put on his outerwear before walking downstairs with Fei Ren.
On the first floor… Cody was giving instructions to the two muscular men in front of him. Seeing Fei Ren descend, he smiled warmly and dismissed the two men, approaching Bai Yu with concern, “Little brother, have you recovered?”
“Almost fully recovered… I have to thank you for treating my wounds so well.”
Bai Yu moved his left arm slightly and said, “At least it doesn’t affect combat anymore.”
“Little brother, your recovery speed is really fast!”
After praising him, Cody turned to Fei Ren, “And you, little girl…”
“Just call me Ling Nai.”
“Ling Nai, do you know Guanglin Square?”
“Yes!”
Fei Ren nodded. Due to frequent battles with the Monster Organization, she was very familiar with Starry Sky City. She immediately said, “Are you asking me to lead the cat monster to Guanglin Square?”
“That’s right, I’ve made preparations there!”
Cody nodded, “Next time that magic beast invades the city, please lead her there for us!”
“Understood…”
But at this moment, Fei Ren inexplicably asked, “Mr. Cody, speaking of which… how did you know I had the strength to lure a leader-class magic beast? Does my appearance suggest such power?”
“Haha… At first glance, it’s hard to tell that you possess such power, Ling Nai.”
Cody smiled and said, “To be honest, my brother happened to see you kick the head of a wolf magic beast off, and then use a katana to defeat two magic beasts. That’s how I knew!”
“Huh? Were there people around then?”
Hearing this, Fei Ren was taken aback. Her immediate reaction was: if there were people around, it was a mistake that she hadn’t noticed them and saved them at the time!
“Yes… He described your features to me, so I recognized you yesterday!”
Cody spoke sincerely, “Honestly… Anyone who saw you kick a magic beast’s head off with one foot and easily kill two magic beasts with a katana would believe you have great strength, wouldn’t they?”
“Haha… So that’s how it is!”
Hearing Cody’s sincere praise, Fei Ren smiled awkwardly and looked at Bai Yu with reassurance. It means don’t overthink it… In fact, it’s exactly because of this reason, and has nothing to do with that dark-skinned man who threw the ball.
Everything went smoothly. When the next invasion alert sounded, Bai Yu directly got into a car and drove towards the location where the cat monster appeared, with Fei Ren beside him.
