Chapter 22: Collei, Relax, Do You Feel Better?
Dehya didn't expect Master Shazaman's reaction to be so strong when she mentioned her resignation.
But she didn't think too much about it and said with a smile, "You are all overreacting; I'm embarrassed to be so enthusiastic."
Shazaman smiled superficially but sighed inwardly.
Not long ago, Dehya's father, Kusela, came to him, hoping to hire Dehya.
Since Kusela had saved his life, he agreed without hesitation.
But the problem is that Kusela was in poor condition.
A small regiment leader who was the Legacy of the God King was limping on crutches, as if he had been beaten.
And the tone of his speech also hinted at distress.
He wondered if Kusela might be in serious trouble, perhaps even losing his life.
If Dehya left now, how would he face her savior, Kusela?
Fortunately, Dehya agreed to stay, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
...
The Humayi family held a feast to celebrate the news that Dunyarzad was cured of the magical scale disease and obtained the God Eye, and the news spread quickly through the streets.
Baoshang Street.
"Collei, don't push yourself if you're not feeling well!"
"Wait here, I'll deliver the dried flower decorations to the last vendor and be right back!"
Nasrin placed Collei, who was struggling to breathe, on the bench and hurriedly ran toward the crowd with her backpack.
Collei was terrified.
The growing crowd around her made her feel depressed and panicked.
As she watched Nasrin's back gradually disappear, an indescribable fear overtook her heart.
This feeling was like being abandoned.
It reminded her of the time she accidentally fell off a cliff and hung onto a tree branch. Instead of lending a hand, her companion left her and walked away.
The more she thought about it, the more breathless she felt.
"Oops..."
Collei suddenly noticed that weak black scales began to grow on her arms, and they started to go numb!
Then her cheeks, neck, and thighs...
This sign indicated that the evil force in her body might be getting out of control!
When Hei Yan breaks the seal, her consciousness will be swallowed by the demon god's residue!
Moreover, these innocent passersby will also be engulfed by the black flames!
At that moment, a hand suddenly touched her cheek.
"It's okay, take it easy, Collei."
"Eh!?"
Collei's eyes widened, looking at the beautiful face that suddenly appeared in front of her, feeling confused inside.
Because the place where Ye Xi's hand caressed was her scaly cheek!
When most people see her scales, they shy away in fear. Why didn't the people in front of her dislike her at all?
"Relax."
Ye Xi gently comforted and stroked the other person's face, taking the opportunity to look directly into her eyes and gradually calm her down.
He could also feel the pulse of the other person with his fingers.
He could sense that Collei was very nervous now, and her heart was racing.
Then, he used the skill [Forced Calm] on Collei.
Although this skill can be used by others, the effect depends on the mental strength of the other party.
Obviously, Collei's spirit was on the verge of collapse and very fragile, so he used [Forced Calm] several times before Collei gradually calmed down.
When Collei regained her senses, she realized that her breathing had become much more stable, and the scales on her body had also disappeared.
This feeling was truly comfortable.
"Do you feel better?"
"Hmm. Thank you."
Collei nodded, her eyes filled with gratitude.
The scene of Ye Xi reaching out to her was reminiscent of when Amber reached out to her in Mondstadt.
"Excuse me... your name is..."
"I am Ye Xi."
"Eh!?"
Collei's face was shocked; she had just heard that name!
"You are the only one..."
"Silence..."
Ye Xi made a silent gesture.
Stay close to the Adventurers' Association.
If others knew that he was Master Ye Xi, who had paid a lot of money to hire his wife, that would be a big blow, right?
In fact, he was there just to find a girl to sign up for the commission.
It seems that the news that Dunyarzad possessed the God Eye spread, and a large group of people went to the Adventurers' Association to accept the commission.
Ye Xi intended to choose; after all, good steel should be used wisely!
Ayexia and Dunyarzad are not bad, so we can't waste our energy in vain!
Moreover, the issue of the God Eye is not a trivial matter.
If you're not careful, you could create many God Eye holders, which would break the balance.
When Tianli realizes it, it will be problematic.
It's a pity that after watching for more than ten minutes, there weren't many who caught his attention.
At that moment, he noticed Collei sitting on the bench.
Observing the other party's reaction at that moment, he judged that the residue of the demon god was about to break the seal!
When the Black Flame Serpent appeared on the street, there would be countless victims!
Thinking of this, he took the initiative to help stabilize Collei's mood.
Collei didn't expect that Master Ye Xi, who could cure the devil scale disease, would appear in front of her this way!
Moreover, he seemed like a different person from the supposed Ye Xi.
What old crazy monster?
Obviously beautiful!
