Chapter 15: The Old Man? Old Blade (New)
The blue orb appeared in her palm, and the glow of magic seemed to be filled with fluorescent blue fairy dew. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ahri stared blankly at the orb in his hand, his gaze caught in the blue memory.
"Huh? What's wrong... Ali? Ellie asked her as she fed her father spoonfuls of cold medicinal soup.
The thread of thought broke in the air, and Ahri looked at Ellie's serious side face, and couldn't help but sigh -
This medicine is useless.
Although Ahri did not understand medical skills, after the liquid medicine infiltrated into the body, the thin life essence in the body was not filled, and there was no intention of slowly growing from the internal organs. She didn't know whether to say something like that, she didn't know whether to tell her.
"It's nothing, I just think it's pretty, right?" She grinned, a pair of small, pointed tiger teeth between her grinning mouths, and then she extinguished the blue glow within the orb.
"Yes, yes, this baby, you don't seem to get tired of it." Ellie teased her as she said that the bowl of medicinal soup in her hand was about to bottom out.
"Ahem, indeed, it's a very powerful treasure." Master Rito coughed a few times, smiled and said to her, "Take good care of it." ”
Ahri replied with a "uh-huh", nodding vigorously and even shaking a pair of ears on the top of his head. When she was so happy, there was definitely something good in her mind.
"By the way, Ellie, isn't there some medicine left in the medicine pot, let's heat it up a little. It's so cold tonight, it's definitely getting colder, even if reheating will damage some of the medicinal effect, but the body will be more comfortable. ”
Ellie looked at Ahri and felt that what she said was reasonable, but she couldn't say why she felt a little strange, so she agreed: "Well, then I'll go and heat it up again." Dad, let Ahri stay with you for a while, it seems like you haven't spoken for a long time. ”
Ahri watched Irelia get up and leave the room, and after counting five breaths in her mind, the pointed ears on the top of her head did not hear the presence of anyone eavesdropping, and then she made the orb manifest again, holding it in her palm, allowing it to shine again.
The blue magic light was soon filled with another color, which seemed to be tender green, or pale yellow, like the color of spring budding, and like the last dry color of late autumn.
"Why bother?" Seeing this, the master closed his eyes lightly and just asked her.
"Yes...... Well, the demon fox's gratitude. She thought for a moment and said.
"If karma is reciprocated, you have already repaid that love."
"People are not saying that there is no reward for saving lives." Ahri said, "I'll do my best." ”
With that, she activated the magic power in her body, and the orb floated higher from her palm, suspended in the air, and green light overflowed from the orb and flowed into Master Rito's body.
That strange light was a life spirit, and as a demon fox, she could feed on this power, increasing her own magic, but she could also reverse the process, just like what she was doing now.
She felt tired, and if it was a feeling of satiety to absorb the essence qi and transform it into mana, it was extremely difficult to convert the magic into essence, as if her body had been drained out little by little.
But this kind of injection is effective, she believes, she has also seen with her own eyes, those gossamer-like blue essence in the meridians of the body is becoming full, and the injection of life essence is constantly turning into the five internal organs, although they are still unstable, but as long as there are more, the effect of consolidating the foundation can be achieved.
The weakening of her magic made her panic, and she needed to protect her strength, as well as ...... Deal with that guy. Moreover, she has not found prey recently, because of the obstruction of weak chickens, the magic power in her body is not so full, if she continues to waste, it will damage the magic channel of her body.
Ahri made a bold move, she poured her life essence directly into Master Rito's body through the orb, and vaguely seemed to be able to see the blue glimmer in these essences, curling the mark of a little fox in the river of life.
Anyway...... In the future, you can slowly absorb the essence and replenish it back. Ahri thought. After all, it is the physique of the demon fox, which is more straightforward to replenish than humans, and it is enough to drain a few scumbags of lust with the orb.
When this process was over, and Ahri finally put away the orb, she was already exhausted, and she almost fainted due to the double exhaustion of magic and energy, and she struggled to hold on to the edge of the bed to support herself.
"The reason why people are born is because of their spirit." Master Rito slowly read the text of the ancients, and there seemed to be some sighs in his voice. "I am a dying man, and my life is numbered by heaven, so why do I do all this?"
"It's okay, it doesn't cost much, it's quite a luxury for humans. But I'm a demon fox, so naturally there is a different way. She shook her head and said, but her head became even more dizzy, and Ahri wanted to cry without tears.
Fortunately, at this time, Ellie came back with the last bowl of black medicinal soup.
"What are you talking about? I think I'm having a lot of fun. She sat down on the edge of the bed and continued to give her father medicine.
Ahri smiled with relief, feeling that this level of exhaustion was worth it as a price.
In the dim candlelight, the silhouette of Ellie feeding Master Rito pills became more and more blurry in her eyes.
Is it really too wasted?
"It doesn't matter, right?"
"......No," Ahri replied reluctantly, but before she could finish her sentence, she felt her head become too heavy to be able to do anything, and in a trance, her body fell down heavily.
"Ahri?!" Ellie rushed over. Holding her body up, "Why is your face so pale?" Ellie hugged her anxiously, and the Nine-Tails behind her became only one, dragging alone behind her.
"It's nothing...... Ahri closed her eyes, trying to get up with Ellie's help.
Bell――
A short knife fell from her waist with a crisp sound and bounced off the ground.
"What is this, Ahri? Take this kind of thing with you... It's dangerous! I don't even have a sheath, so it's easy to hurt myself! Ellie picked up the knife on the ground and helped Ahri to sit on the edge of the bed, the candlelight reflecting on the cold blade, and the pattern of the blade could be seen.
This knife...... There is an indescribable feeling.
"This is Ionia's craft......" Rito's gaze fell on the knife, as if it had suddenly become a little heavier. Where did you get it? ”
"Dad~ Ahri is still very weak, wait for her to take a break-"
"It's in... Picked up in the forest. Ahri said that she also wanted to find a place to rest, but it had not been a long time since Master Rito had seen such a gaze...... No, or never.
"Thank you for all this ...... for me," Master Rito closed his eyes and shook his head, as if sighing, "sure enough...... It's providence. I'm not at the time when I can do my bidding. ”
"Dad, what the hell are you... What are you talking about? Ellie looked at her father in bewilderment, his condition was much better. But for some reason, his gaze at the moment made her even more worried.
Master Rito stared at the knife in a daze, his gaze as if it had been filled with lead. Between this sharp blade, it seems that a pair of piercing eyebrows can be glimpsed.
He held the sword for a lifetime, thinking that the years had already been like flowing water, taking away all the debts owed by the fierce fighting back then, and only depositing old wounds that could recur at any time, but after all, ......
"He's back......"
