Chapter 122

Episode 123 – Mountain Valley Sanctuary

(Teaser)

This time the entire group of comrades looked at him strangely, after all, everyone here was working for the Arite family. His words would be considered rude and insolent if they weren’t just too much of a joke to be considered as slander.

Used to the strange ideas constantly running through the pink-haired man’s head, no one got agitated or took offense. Though the argel man with the monocle did have the ugliest expression of the bunch as he spat out: “Impossible. The mind would be incompatible with another’s body and soul. They would mutually reject each other. Mind and body need to be birthed from the same seed of life to be compatible. And the soul needs to be the one gifted to the person by the Origin.”

The pink haired man opened his mouth again to respond, however, before any words could leave his throat, Nelaira slapped him on the back of his head. “More work, less nonsense.”

The pink haired man rubbed the back of his head with a pout and mumbled under his breath. “I’m a healer&h.e.l.lip;if you want to give me work to do, push someone down the stairs.”

Nelaira’s long ears twitched and she put up her fist threateningly: “If I were to push someone, I’m afraid you’d be on the top of the list.”, though the threat in her action was sabotaged by the mirth glittering in her eyes and the smirk playing at the corners of her lips.

The pink haired man rose his hands up in surrender: “Ah! Lieutenant, what happened to section 32 of the Purge handbook - ‘protect the healer’?”

The only answer he got was the laughter of his comrades.
