Chapter 127 Not Little Red Riding Hood
The wolf boy's name is "Lei Ze".
His unfortunate life story was similar to Youya's. He was a baby abandoned in the Wolf Territory and has been living with wolves since he could remember.
Although life was very difficult and he sometimes went hungry, Lei Ze considered this place his home.
The wolves will not leave their territory, and Reiser will not leave his Lupica.
Ever since he saw his fellow flying people that day, he had always wanted to learn how to fly by riding on a branch, but no matter how he tried, he had never succeeded.
Until today when he smelled her scent again, Lei Ze followed the scent and came here through the shortcut in the forest.
Her voice is just like her appearance...
Like, something flying, light and fluffy.
However, the meaning of the words was difficult for him to understand. It needs to be emphasized that Lei Ze has not received any systematic education, and the words he knows basically come from the tall man who taught him his name.
But this amount of knowledge makes it difficult for people to even communicate in daily life, let alone understand ghost stories.
Therefore, in his opinion, he was just following the man's instructions and greeting his fellow tribesmen.
If it is between wolves, there may be some body movements, such as "biting, licking, and patting".
But even so, one of the three girls in front of him was very frightened, like a small animal that feeds on very hard fruits.
The girl who had been hiding behind her companions and looking light-hearted also looked a little surprised. Only the leading girl pointed her iron claws at him with a very serious expression.
This action stimulated the wolves accompanying him. They came out from the forest, each of them had very colorful fur and cold eyes.
This made the atmosphere suddenly become cold.
Fortunately, although Lei Ze was also frightened by her, he did not fight back. After all, he was just delivering herbs...
The fragrant girl's injuries seemed to be more serious, and he was very worried about her.
Therefore, he did not retreat, but took out the herbs from his pocket and said with some difficulty: "...Eat, good..."
Youya looked at his hand reaching out to her and the purple-blue pieces of herbs, feeling at a loss as to what to do.
"Is this for me? I'm not picky about food, but eating herbs raw is a bit..."
After the initial embarrassment, Barbara also hid behind Youya, covering her skirt, while Qin stopped her sternly: "Don't listen to him, be careful of poison."
Lei Ze could only barely understand some of their words, and could also understand their reluctance to eat.
At first, the wolves didn't like the herbal paste Lei Ze gave them. He could only do it when they were asleep, but even so, they were awakened by the pain of their wounds and bit Lei Ze until blood flowed.
But the wolf will recover, and Lei Ze will recover too, and the happiest thing for him is that no one will die.
Therefore, Lei Ze tried his best to use words that he was not very familiar with, and repeatedly said "...Eat, it's good...If you don't eat, you will die..."
This made Barbara's face turn even paler. Perhaps it was because of Youya's cannibalistic story and the group of wolves around her, which always made her think of the possibility of being eaten.
However, even so, she did not choose to run away, but stood firmly beside Youya, with the Eye of God pendant around her waist also faintly glowing.
If a fight really came to that, she'd just use this prayer book to hit the bad guy on the head.
Qin held up her sword, protecting the two of them while saying, "Youya, can you fly now? I'm afraid there will be a fierce battle next."
"Huh? I don't think he means any harm."
The girl could see from his eyes that it was similar to the feeling she had when her sister Eula took care of her when she was sick.
Especially these words that are repeated over and over again, perhaps they are not as they misunderstood.
"But..." Qin fell into anxiety. Even she couldn't defeat so many wolves while protecting everyone.
After all, even an adult knight might not be able to do it, and she is just a reserve girl now, and not someone favored by the Eye of God to drive the power of elements, so she can't help but be nervous.
"Why don't you let me communicate with him first? If there is any danger, I have the confidence to fly up with the wind field in an instant."
Youya comforted her and leaned out from behind Qin, facing Lei Ze, who wanted to get closer but was forced back to a safe distance by Qin's sword.
He looked anxious and ready to pounce, just like a little wolf cub.
Inexplicably cute.
However, if you want to communicate with him, you naturally need to simplify the complex language, and it is best to use gestures to assist in communication.
"Hello, my name is Youya!" Youya introduced herself, then pointed at him and asked, "What's your name?"
"Name, Lei Ze." The wolf boy's expression became a little excited, his red pupils narrowed, and then widened, full of worry.
“…You, eat…”
He raised the herb a little higher, almost as if he was going to feed it into Youya's mouth.
The grassy smell on it is very pungent, and it is not difficult to imagine how bitter it would taste.
However, Youya was not in a hurry, but took it with her hands and asked, "Eat, this, okay?"
Lei Ze nodded and moved a little closer, which made Qin a little nervous, but the girl pressed her hand down, indicating that she should put down the sword.
After Qin really did this, the wolves that seemed ready to pounce on them at any time changed their alert state and lay down on the ground. Some of them even started fighting, as if they didn't take them seriously at all.
"Although I don't know why he wants me to eat this, maybe I can make a bold guess. Is this some kind of herb?"
Youya looked at the few purple-green grass pieces in her hands that seemed not much different from weeds, then looked at Barbara and asked.
"Can you recognize it, Barbara?"
"Um...please let me see."
Barbara, unwilling to make no contribution, also poked her head out and stared at the grasses carefully, then looked surprised.
"This one is a herb that stops bleeding and helps wounds heal. This one is a herb for detoxification. And this one... I'm not sure about this unique wolf-tooth shape, but it seems to be similar to the herb that my father mentioned that can relieve hidden diseases."
"But, none of us were injured at all... That's not right."
As she spoke, she looked at Youya with some hesitation. After carefully checking every part of her, she felt a little relieved.
He just turned around and asked, "Youya, have you been feeling unwell recently?"
"Well, of course, no problem..." The girl looked away guiltily and said, "Since I met Barbara, my health has been getting better and better."
However, Lei Ze on the other side couldn't wait any longer. While the two were chatting, Qin also put down his sword and pounced on Youya. His silver hair and red eyes, like a wolf, formed a sharp contrast with the weak girl under him.
Yuya also subconsciously pushed his face, feeling the fingers hooking the corner of her mouth, and said anxiously: "Wait, I'm not Little Red Riding Hood, and this is not even the third question, don't be so anxious!"
Chapter 128: The Optimistic Girl Gets Candy
In the end, he was still fed a mouthful of herbs.
The bitter taste was so severe that Youya couldn't even distinguish the smell of grass. She was forced to swallow it, and she couldn't spit it out. Lei Ze put his palm under her chin and put all his weight on it.
It's like feeding the wolf.
Not to mention resisting, the girl felt so tight in her chest that she almost couldn't breathe.
Fortunately, Barbara, who was standing nearby, saw what was happening and quickly hit Lei Ze on the head with a book, telling him to stop.
Sister Qin also pushed him away, her face filled with shock and anger, and quickly asked him why he did that.
However, Lei Ze did not answer. After confirming that the girl had swallowed the herbs, he explained with a stammer: "...Eat it, the injury will heal..."
"Cough cough——" Youya was choked and kept coughing, but she didn't know if it was a psychological effect or the herbs really had miraculous effects. After being forced to swallow them, the fatigue that she had been feeling in recent days was indeed relieved a lot.
However, Youya didn't think this would have any effect on her illness.
In fact, ever since Wendy told her that her condition had worsened, the experience of being unable to move her whole body, as if she were being possessed by a ghost, would occasionally recur.
That feeling made her think back to her past self.
It was too ironic to greet death in that state, so she tried her best to do something before that. However, after trying for so long, she was accidentally exposed by Lei Ze, and she also had to consider how to deceive Barbara and Jean.
Even Youya is not mentally strong enough to ignore these things.
Under the double blow of physical and psychological blow, the girl's eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and her beige dress was stained with mud due to the fall.
It looks like a pure white flower falling into a mud pit, so pitiful.
How could Barbara just watch? She picked up Youya with heartache, not caring about the mud on her beloved skirt. She gently patted the girl's back with her hands to help her breathe smoothly again, and the power of the Eye of God was quietly released.
It was not until a long time later that Youya recovered from the state of being on the verge of crying.
"Are you ok?"
Barbara asked with concern.
"If you really feel nauseous, it's okay to vomit it out. I will help you with treatment."
"No, spit."
Lei Ze refused to agree when he heard this. He wanted to step forward, but was blocked by Sister Qin with a sullen face, and was almost captured.
After turning around a few times and finding that Qin's hostility had not subsided, he lowered his head in disappointment like a large domestic dog and retreated to a safe distance.
The wolves next to him also howled at this time, as if urging him to go back. After hesitating for a moment, Lei Ze left, looking back every three steps.
Before leaving, he left a message: "There is still medicine left, come back to take more."
This made Qin even angrier, but as the wolves nearby were still staring at this side, she did not run after them. Instead, she remained on guard and asked worriedly.
"Youya, are you hurt?"
"No, it's okay." The girl's voice was tearful, as if she had been bullied, making her look lovable.
"It's just too bitter. It would be nice if there was candy."
This made the two of them feel much more at ease, and being able to joke with them at least proved that Youya was not in any serious trouble.
The girl made a bitter face and stuck out her tongue, but she could not forget the bitter taste. Instead, it was like a feather brushing across her tongue, repeatedly showing its presence.
Fortunately, there is Barbara, a resident of the church. She is still young and is often assigned to take care of children of similar age, so she always has candy in her pocket.
She unwrapped the candy wrapper and handed it to Youya.
Although the fiery red color looked a little wrong, no one noticed these small details now.
When Youya held the candy in her mouth, her eyes were filled with tears again.
"so spicy!"
"Oh, no! This is the spicy candy I usually eat... Sorry, Yuya."
Barbara also looked so anxious that she was about to cry.
"Spit out the candy!"
"No, don't. It's spicy and bitter, but what Barbara gave me... is precious."
Although the girl's taste buds were messed up, after the initial taste shock, the burning pain did suppress the lingering bitterness.
At least the feeling of nausea caused by physiological reaction has been reduced a lot.
Qin looked at this scene and didn't know how to help, so she could only suggest to Barbara: "Barbara, can you conjure up some water for Youya to drink? This might make her feel better."
"Oh, okay, okay!"
She said she wanted to turn it into water, but she had no container and her hands were dirty. Besides, if she asked others to drink the water in her hands, her fingers would definitely touch their tongue or something!
When I think about it that way, it feels a little bitter...
But you can't splash water on Youya and get her skirt wet.
If that happens, Youya will definitely cry!
This kind of bullying of friends is enough once. If it happens again, Barbara will regret it so much that she won't be able to sleep at night.
Therefore, she had to look at the hook-hook fruits they had picked along the way. After peeling off the thorny skin of this fruit, there would be soft and sticky fruits like grapes inside.
The taste is just right for the sweet and sour taste, just right for helping Youya out in an emergency.
In short, after some effort, Barbara finally peeled off the skin of the hook fruit and fed the fruit to Youya's mouth.
The thin cherry lips trembled, then opened. The gaze from above made her look like a parent bird feeding its chicks.
It feels like what Youya joked has come true.
In a mood half filled with concern and half filled with joy, Barbara also fed Youya for the first time in her life.
Even under the watchful eyes of his sister, the atmosphere was quite subtle and it was inappropriate for him to have any ambiguous thoughts.
