Sickly lady in wheelchair, but God

"I've been looking for you for several days, and now you're here."

Alsophila stood up and pointed at the scars on Sera's body.

Sera frowned slightly, but soon smiled again: "It's just a minor injury, it's nothing serious, wait for me here, I'll come to you after the game."

It's okay for women to buy it.

She always does things in a vigorous and decisive manner.

This time, Alsophila was quick-witted and stopped her in time.

[No, your injuries have affected your movements. What you need now is not to participate in the competition, but to have a good rest! ]

Unable to speak, Alsophila could only start its performance in front of Sera.

She raised her right fist and pretended to hit herself in the face fiercely, then hugged her chest, swayed from side to side, and suddenly collapsed to the ground like Wang Situ who fell off a horse.

After a moment, she stood up again, took Sera's hand and pressed Sera onto the stone steps where she could sit.

[Yeah, that's it, just watch the game here with me! ]

Alsophila sat down next to Sera.

As soon as she sat down, Sera stood up with an even brighter smile on her face.

"Are you afraid that I will get hurt again like last time? Don't worry, I was just unlucky last time and accidentally ran into a lizard man. I won't do that this time. Just sit still and wait for me to come back."

She patted Alsophila's shoulder.

How could Alsophila let her go so easily? She pretended to stop Sera again, but Sera suddenly sighed.

"I need money. I can make money by playing games. Can you understand that?"

【…】

Alsophila touched the few remaining fragments of magic stone in the bag and could only watch Sera leave again.

As she expected, Sera's injuries had affected her movements, but this time the opponent Sera faced was not strong. After being hit several times on the injured hand, she successfully knocked down her opponent.

【How are you? 】

Seeing Sera walking towards him with her injured hand covered, Alsophila ran over immediately.

The pain made Sera's mouth twitch, but it couldn't drive away the smile on her face.

"Where do you live? Take me to see it."

Alsophila did not lead the way directly, but held Sera's hand.

Sera said carelessly, "It's really okay, take me to where you live, I'll remember it so that I can find you later."

Alsophila hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

There was nothing she could do standing here, so she might as well take Sera back first.

Ten minutes later, under a protruding rock outside the city, Sera looked at the tree also in astonishment.

"You live here?"

Alsophila spinulosa waved his hands, indicating that he had long been accustomed to it.

She picked up a handful of leaves, washed them, and started a new performance.

She first pinched her thigh and pretended to scream in pain. Then, she ate a few more leaves and repeated the action of pinching her thigh. However, this time she did not scream. Instead, she looked relaxed.

"You mean, if I eat this leaf, I won't feel any pain?"

Sera took the leaves from Alsophila in surprise and ate more than ten leaves in a row. After a while, she was pleasantly surprised to find that the pain in her arm was really relieved a lot.

"you are great!"

Alsophila spinulosa laughed innocently.

She is not the one who is awesome, it is her dad who is awesome, it was her dad who found these medicines.

She asked Sera to sit on the ground, and then went out with a harpoon. Sera didn't understand what was going on until she saw Alsophila catching fish with a harpoon, and then she realized that Alsophila wanted to treat her to a meal.

In the sunset, Sera felt a warm feeling in her heart as she watched the girl, who was facing her sideways and constantly turning the stick with the fish on it.

How long has it been since you felt treated like this?

She has forgotten, or perhaps never experienced it.

"Fool."

【Um? 】

Alsophila turned its head.

The firelight illuminated Sera's scarred face. "It's obvious that I'm not a serious person. I punched you for no reason, but you not only don't blame me, but you keep helping me. Are you not a fool?"

【! 】

Alsophila spinulosa's eyebrows stand upside down.

Who are you calling stupid? Ah, who are you calling stupid?

Sera chuckled: "Silly but cute. Well, I have already thought of how to repay you. I will teach you after we finish eating the fish."

What Sera meant by teaching was teaching the Alsophila how to fight.

"You're actually very strong, but your movements are so chaotic that you can't really use your full strength. You're like me."

"No, no, that's too much, it has to be like this."

"You learn pretty quickly, maybe you're not stupid, but a genius."

That's not the case.

Isn’t she a genius because she is favored by God?

Alsophila swung her fist vigorously. She felt that she had indeed become a lot stronger. Next time if she met a big lizard, she would borrow one of its legs and tail to taste it.

When night fell, Sera sat cross-legged on the ground and looked at the stars.

"When I make a lot of money in the future, I will definitely repay you."

Alsophila did not say anything; she was not interested in such things.

Sera said to herself, "I have an older sister who is very kind to me. She raised me, but one day she suddenly fell ill and had to rely on the magic power in the magic stone to survive. Here, only the rich have magic stones, so I had to sell myself to them and fight in the arena in exchange for the opportunity to use magic stones to keep my sister alive."

Ah, this...

Alsophila suddenly understood why Serra had to play in the game despite being injured.

Isn't this just like Dad?

At that time, my father was determined to protect her even at the risk of getting injured.

Sera said, "Okay, don't look at me weirdly. I think you're more capable than me. You live alone and can't even talk. You must be having a hard time."

Alsophila shook his head.

Is it hard?

It seems like there is a little bit. She did suffer some hardships when she was a child, and later on it was a bit difficult when she lived alone, but this little bit of suffering is nothing at all.

Life in this world is bound to be full of suffering.

Compared to others, she was already lucky. When she was not feeling well, her father came out to take care of her. Although her father passed away later, separation from life and death is a very normal thing.

Moreover, she was taken care of by the gods. She couldn't really say whether she was the daughter of gods, but it was certain that she lived longer than ordinary people.

If this ability is not bestowed by God, where does it come from?

Just for this reason, Alsophila felt that he had nothing to complain about.

Alsophila's reaction was somewhat beyond Sera's expectations. She stared at Alsophila for a long time and said with emotion: "I wish I could be as optimistic as you."

After sitting for another ten minutes or so, Sera stood up and said goodbye.

Alsophila sent her to the city, and when they returned to their residence, Alsophila was looking forward to meeting Sera tomorrow.

Although she has long been accustomed to being alone, it would be nice to have a friend with whom she could communicate.

However, Sera did not show up the next day.

Not only the second day, but also the third day, the fourth day, and even the seventh day, Sera did not appear again.

45 The sword that gives death, the wrath of the immortal lady!

Alsophila could no longer sit still, so she decided to take the initiative and go find Sera.

But this was not an easy thing to do, because she couldn't speak, she couldn't tell others that she was looking for someone. Even if someone understood what she meant, she couldn't tell that person the name of the person she was looking for or what he or she looked like.

Therefore, she could only use the dumbest method——

Look everywhere!

Fortunately, Black Storm City is not big, with only three or four hundred houses in total.

What Alsophila didn't expect was that she spent four days searching all the houses but still couldn't find Sera or the person who was suspected to be Sera's sister.

A gentle breeze stirs the waves.

Alsophila sat by the sea, with its feet in the water, stepping on the fragmented moonlight.

[Is she lying to me?]

[That's not right. She must have a purpose for lying to me. But firstly, I'm a poor guy, so she can't cheat money from me. Secondly, we are both women, so she can't cheat on me. So what's the point of her lying to me? ]

Alsophila was so puzzled that the grilled fish in his hand no longer tasted delicious.

This couldn't be the case, there must be something she had overlooked.

Maybe Serra moved away, maybe Serra was beaten to death.

Bah, bah, bah, how can you say such an ominous thing!

You have to know that Sera is a gladiator. Although she is often covered with scars, it is still too difficult for ordinary people to defeat her. Only other gladiators and wealthy people can...

【Um? 】

Speaking of the rich, Alsophila suddenly remembered.

The night before Sera disappeared, she told her that in order to save her sister, she had to sell herself to those wealthy people and rely on participating in competitions in exchange for the opportunity to use magic stones.

[Could it be that I was looking in the wrong direction from the beginning, and that Sera was actually a slave living in the big houses of those wealthy people? ]

Alsophila ate the fish in her hand until only bones were left. After standing up, she went straight to where the rich people lived without saying a word.

It was not until she arrived outside those big houses that she realized that she had oversimplified the problem again.

There are four famous wealthy people in Black Storm City. How can she be sure whose slave Sera is?

You can't get the answer by asking, and looking outside won't work either.

The reason why the big house is called "big house" is because its size is dozens of times larger than that of an ordinary house, and it is surrounded by a wooden fence more than two meters high.

The tree also tried to stand on tiptoe for a long time but couldn't see what was going on inside. Instead, it attracted the attention of the gatekeeper outside the big house.

"what are you doing?"

Oops, I was discovered!

The tree also turned around and ran away.

As she had been traveling for many years, her escape skills were not to be underestimated. In a few moves, she left the gatekeeper who was chasing her behind, and even her exhaust gas could not get ahold of him.

[Hey, can I lure them out on purpose, and then sneak back to find Sera? ]

An idea suddenly came to Alsophila's mind, and she felt that she couldn't think of a better solution in a short period of time.

The only problem is that even if the gatekeepers outside the big house are lured away, there are still many powerful gladiators in the house, such as the famous lizard man.

[If I meet him, I'll be beaten to death with one punch, right? ]

Alsophila spinulosa was a little scared.

But even though she was scared, she still decided to go because she already considered Sera a friend, and Sera was very much like her father in some ways, which made her unable to abandon Sera.

[It's okay, everything will be fine as long as I have this sword! ]

Alsophila took off the sword of Morphis that had been tied to his back and held it tightly in his hand.

Feeling the coolness coming from her palms, her heartbeat gradually slowed down.
