Felia immediately understood her meaning and went over to drag Marie away: "Let's go, we'll go help clean up the bodies, we'll leave this place to Her Highness and Miss Aisha."
Liu: "Oh...! You guys have a good chat, we'll go get busy!" Marie also realized what was going on.
Soon, the two figures disappeared around the corner of the corridor.
After watching the two leave, Elsa followed Lycorina into the room.
Si sat down opposite Elsa at the table, and Lycorina looked at her with a smile: "Alright, now it's just the two of us. Can you tell me what trouble you've run into?"
"Um..." Elsa twirled her red hair with her fingers, "My hair...it's turned red."
Eriklina: "Hmm?"
“It was originally black, but it turned red… I think I’m sick,” Elsa said solemnly.
Lycorina: "...Hmm?"
Chapter 4: What did the hairless creature use to keep warm? (4k)
After trying [Holy Healing] and [Purification], Elsa's hair remained unchanged.
Lycorina was already somewhat baffled by this "illness," and after using her skill, she was even more at a loss.
"If all else fails... try washing it with water?" Lycorina grinned awkwardly.
"……Um."
Elsa was speechless.
After all, Elsa had tried washing it countless times, but the color hadn't faded at all. It wasn't dyed red; her hair had naturally turned red.
Lycorina had no choice but to try to clean her with water-based skills.
The result, naturally, was no different.
“Miss Aisha, is it possible... that this isn’t actually an illness?” Lycorina asked seriously.
“But… this is different from other people…” Elsa said softly, avoiding eye contact.
Because of her strange red hair, she became timid and insecure.
"So what if it's different? My hair is white too. You've never seen a person with white hair before, have you?" Lycorina chuckled.
Elsa was taken aback and looked up at Lycorina.
Perhaps for convenience, Lycorina tied her cascading silver-white hair behind her head with a rope.
Moreover, not only was her hair silver-white, but her eyes were also a rare gold, a gold even brighter than amber.
If we're talking about weirdness, isn't Lycorina weirder than her?
Elsa was stunned for a long time, but finally shook her head: "No... I don't want to give up on treatment yet."
She can't accept herself as she is now!
Regardless of how others see her, she herself feels that she is very strange, so she wants to go back to her original self.
"A hero doesn't get sick! Oh no, if he does get sick, he just needs to eat his fill!"
If there's some other reason, there's no way I couldn't solve it.
Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that you're probably not sick, it's just that your hair color has changed! Lycorina concluded.
“No, there’s another symptom besides the hair…” Elsa frowned slightly, thinking that it was indeed difficult to talk about.
Lycorina: "Your eyes have turned red too?"
Elsa shook her head: "No."
Lycorina: "What is that?"
Elsa lowered her voice and said with a serious expression, "I..."
I haven't been to the toilet for months.
Lycorina: "...Huh? Ah, um, what a coincidence, me too."
Elsa: "?"
Lycorina: "?"
……
"Is it enough to just give her one bite?" Hilo glanced at the animal-eared girl and asked An Yi, "Should I get her a few more? She looks starving."
“There’s no need,” An Yi said. “She’s treating us like enemies now, so the five of us she’s imagining must be bad guys.”
If we suddenly give her a huge amount of food, she'll just think we have ulterior motives.
Shiloh: "Oh... what should we do then?"
As An Yi ate, she said, "Unexplained displays of kindness will only make the other person feel strange, so..."
Eat a few first, then throw the rest to her.
We can guarantee that what we eat isn't poisonous, and it will also make her understand that we're reluctantly giving it to her.
"Being given charity isn't any better, is it?!" Hilo couldn't help but complain.
No, charity and giving gifts are not the same.
Giving alms is an act of great compassion, giving someone something to eat.
But giving it to her directly would seem like offering help for no reason.
That is, the difference between superiors and subordinates.
"Don't forget, she's a 'prisoner' now," Annie said.
Hilo ate a meatball and grinned, "Ugh, what a scary man."
In short, An Yi wanted the other person to know that everything she did was meaningless, and whether they had food to eat or not depended on their mood.
They left her alone from beginning to end, but ignored her, because they wanted to tell her that neither of them was actually interested in her life.
If you were going to kill him, you would have done it earlier. Why leave him for a whole night?
So the girl with animal ears, who had eaten most of the meatball, sat on the ground and pondered what these two "earless tribes" were up to.
"Snapped!"
At this moment, Shiro stood up, stretched, and tossed the meatball that had been eaten six times to the girl with animal ears. He gave her a cold look, then sat down and pretended to pack his backpack.
There's not much to organize, my backpack is full of meatballs.
The girl with animal ears swallowed hard, her longing gaze fixed on the leftover meatball in front of her. Her blue vertical pupils swept over Shiro and Annie, observing them for a while.
In the end, I couldn't resist and ate the meatball in one bite, just like before.
She squatted on the ground, frowning, looking thoughtful.
Strange... something's strange...
At that moment, she suddenly remembered Shiloh's cold gaze and Annie's expressionless face last night.
Although they are torturing themselves, but...
They didn't seem happy at all!
They don't find pleasure in torturing themselves!
He was so cold and indifferent from the very beginning.
Moreover, they only bound themselves here; they didn't harm her, nor did they break her bones like goblins would to watch her suffer.
The girl with animal ears remembered how, when she was a child, her parents would chain her up when she made a mistake.
Yes, it doesn't feel like we're torturing her now, it feels like we're punishing her!
The other party didn't intend to hurt her; it seems they just wanted to teach her a lesson!
As for the reason, it's simple.
Last night she wanted to attack the two "earless" people.
Last night, she smelled burning in the forest and quickly saw flames following the smell. It was actually in the direction of her destroyed hometown!
As she drew closer, she saw two creatures that resembled beast-eared beings, but...〇—.●'※〇:
They reeked of goblins!
Taste doesn't lie, so the girl with animal ears immediately mistook them for some kind of goblin that looked like an animal-eared race.
Her homeland was destroyed by goblins.
So she chose to assassinate two goblins of unknown origin.
I never expected that as soon as I arrived, I would be grabbed by something invisible and unable to move since last night.
At this moment, the goblin scent on the two "earless tribesmen" had dissipated, replaced by a scent they had never smelled before.
Perhaps they simply wore goblin skin or something else on their bodies, which is why they smelled like goblins.
The only reason I'm stuck here is because I wanted to kill them last night.
Having come to this conclusion, the beast-eared girl suddenly felt a pang of regret, realizing she might have messed with someone she shouldn't have.
If you want them dead, then you have to be prepared to pay the price with your own life...
Since she struck first, she had no reason to complain even if the other party wanted to kill her.
"She seems much calmer." Hilo observed the animal-eared girl out of the corner of his eye.
“Well, it’s about time,” Annie said. “She should have realized that her guard is meaningless; life and death are in our hands.”
However, we never hurt her.
This means we have no interest in killing her.
If she's of sound mind, she should be able to relax a bit.
A hungry brain is difficult to function properly, so you need to feed her something before she starts thinking.
As she thought about it, she realized that she had almost stabbed those two to death last night, and An Yi and Shiloh were still willing to give her a meal. Maybe those two weren't bad guys after all.
It's unclear whether the other party had considered that possibility, but An Yi doesn't have much time to waste with her; it's about time to return to human territory.
"It's about time to go back." Annie stood up.
