Kapitel 22: Chapter 22: Baru
"Interesting. This is much more interesting than what This Queen imagined."
Queen Medusa waved her hand, signaling for the snake-man guard to leave. However, when the snake-man guard reached the door, Queen Medusa suddenly called out to him.
"If he has any other requests, tell him to look for This Queen directly."
The snake-man guard was slightly taken aback. How great of an honor would it be to meet the Queen? If he was not the Queen's personal guard, it would be extremely difficult for him to meet the Queen, let alone a human.
"Yes." The snake-man guard nodded.
"Alright, you may leave!"
After the snake-man guard left, Queen Medusa said in a cold voice, "Come in!"
As soon as she finished speaking, a skinny snake-man wearing a plain robe slowly walked in.
"Elder Baru, you are the only alchemist in the snake-people tribe. What do you think of the quality of this pill?" Queen Medusa lightly waved her hand and the brown-colored pill in her hand flew towards the white-robed elder.
The elder that Queen Medusa addressed as Elder Baru caught the pill and glanced at it. A ray of light shot out from his turbid eyes.
"Although it is only a first-grade healing pill, the quality is close to perfection. Just from this aspect, I can see that the alchemist who refined this pill has superb alchemy skills and profound fire control skills."
"Oh!" Hearing this, Queen Medusa was even more shocked. She immediately said, "In that case, Elder Baru, as a tier three alchemist, are you able to refine a medicinal pill of such a grade?"
Baru shook his head. "Just from the quality of the pill, this old man guesses that the alchemist who refined this pill should be at least a fourth-grade alchemist."
"Fourth-grade!" Queen Medusa immediately sat up.
"Ah, right. May I know who refined this pill?" Baru asked curiously.
"A slave."
Medusa's red lips curled up, and the smile on her face became even wider.
"A slave???"
Baru was puzzled.
...
"Leader, I've found out that the human is staying in Her Majesty's palace."
On a sand dune, a Snake-Man guard said respectfully to Mo Ba Si.
"What?!"
Mo Ba Si was instantly stunned. He lifted the snake-man in front of him and said, "Are you sure you didn't see wrongly?"
"It can't be wrong. My brother is guarding that human. He lives in a small room in the queen's palace," the snake-man soldier said with a trembling voice.
"Hmph, damn it …" Mo Ba Si released the snake-man guard and said in a deep voice, "If it was not for Her Majesty the Queen removing my position as the commander of the palace guards, causing me to be unable to approach the Queen's palace, I would have definitely killed that brat."
The snake-man guard didn't even dare to breathe loudly. He knew that Mo Ba Si hated humans more than all the snake-men.
After venting for a while, Mo Ba Si immediately said in a deep voice, "Keep a close watch on that human. If there is any movement, immediately report to me. I will go and find the First Elder and the others to take a look."
"Yes."
...
In the room.
It was brightly lit.
Chen Mo took out a wooden bucket from his storage ring, poured some water, and added the Restoration Spirit Liquid.
Just as he was about to take off his clothes and soak in the bath, there was a knock on the door.
"Your Highness," the snake-man guard said.
"Chen Mo." It was Zi Yu Di's voice.
"Come in." Chen Mo said.
"Creak."
The door opened and was immediately closed.
Zi Yu Di walked in slowly with her hands behind her back.
"You are finally here!"
Chen Mo said excitedly. In a situation where he couldn't leave and Zi Yu Di wasn't by his side, he couldn't take advantage of her.
He was still planning to strike while the iron was hot and reach a hundred favorability in one go. He wanted to become her dao companion and raise the host's level.
"You … You missed me?"
Hearing Chen Mo's excited words, Zi Yu Di's face immediately flushed with shyness.
She was wearing a new red dress. Her skin was white and beautiful. She wore a dark gold pendant on her white neck.
If she wore a crown and didn't look carefully, she was no different from Queen Medusa.
But if one looked carefully, one could still see the difference.
First of all, Zi Yu Di wasn't as tall as Queen Medusa. She was slightly smaller.
Her face also wasn't as seductive as Queen Medusa. She lacked a bit of charm.
Chen Mo nodded.
[Ding! Favorability + 1. Obtained 1 Favorability Coin.]
Zi Yu Di lifted a lock of hair from her forehead. With a red face, she said softly, "How is your pill refinement? I came to find you at noon. At that time, the guard said you were refining pills, so I didn't disturb you."
"Not bad. Let me show you." Chen Mo took out a jade bottle from his storage ring and handed it to Zi Yu Di.
Zi Yu Di glanced at it and returned it to Chen Mo. She covered her mouth and smiled. "I didn't expect you to be a pill refinement master."
"Haha, you didn't expect it right? There will be more surprises later." Chen Mo kept her in suspense. Then he asked, "Since you've recovered your memory, what is your real name?"
Although Chen Mo was clear about this, he still asked out of procedure.
Zi Yu Di shook her head. "When my sister and I were born, we didn't have a name. They all called me Your Highness."
"But it doesn't matter. From now on, I have a name. I've decided to be officially called Zi Yu Di."
Saying this, Zi Yu Di revealed a bright and beautiful smile.
That appearance made Chen Mo's heart burn. Then he said, "About this morning, you still haven't given me an answer."
"… Answer what?" Zi Yu Di bit her thin lips and became more and more shy.
Aren't you asking the obvious?
Chen Mo could only continue. "Then do you like me?"
After saying this, Zi Yu Di's cheeks immediately turned red. Even her ears were dyed red. She avoided his gaze and could only lower her head and give a light "mm."
"What did you say? I didn't hear it." Chen Mo actually heard it and deliberately teased her.
"Mm." Zi Yu Di gave another "mm" but this time her voice was louder.
"It's too soft. I still didn't hear it."
"What?" Hearing this, Zi Yu Di was stunned. When she saw the cunning smile on Chen Mo's face, she finally understood that he was teasing her. Her cheeks were suddenly filled with shame and anger. She lightly slapped her palm towards Chen Mo.
"You're so annoying!"
Chen Mo didn't even care about that soft slap. He grabbed Zi Yu Di's jade-like hand and subconsciously pulled her into his arms and hugged her slender waist.
"You … What are you doing? Why aren't you … Let go of me … "
Zi Yu Di's body stiffened. She struggled while pushing Chen Mo's chest.
[Ding! Favorability + 1. Obtained 1 Favorability coin. Triggered intimacy bonus. Obtained an incense's time of epiphany.]
"???"
Chen Mo: Like hell I'll believe you.
Chen Mo involuntarily tightened his grip on Zi Yu Di's waist, as he stared intently at her. Unwittingly, a fiery heat surfaced in Chen Mo's eyes. The hand that was wrapped around Zi Yu Di's waist could not help but gently slide forward, before he touched her jade-like skin…
This time, Zi Yu Di's face instantly turned boiling hot.
