章 544: At the outpost... (part 2)

"Oh? As if you are the one to talk! Watch my health! Good one! Said the boy who worked himself to death and then just continued working harder and harder."

Laura smiled and looked at the Zombie who looked away awkwardly.

"I am not scolding you - as ridiculous it might sound, I kind of expected that you pull off something so crazy in the end... You never learned how to hold back..."

She laughed and reached doubt to pat the blue undead's head – and he bowed slightly so that she had an easier time reaching it.

"...did Banana tell you about that...?"

Zombie ended up asking, slightly embarrassed from the warm, affectionate touch.

"Yes. And Mia, and Luke too. Even some of the passing folks have had some gossip about you from time to time - it seems like you were around the Envys territory a lot..."

Laura pointed out, leaning her head down to glance at Zombie's face.
