Chapter 19 - Miwei's Persistence! Maybe It's Not A Bad Idea To Stay!
“Where am I?”
Mia opened her eyes and looked around the unfamiliar room.
She had been unconscious for three days.
During those three days, she had been in a daze, feeling someone cleaning her wounds and feeding her something bitter every day.
Now, her body had recovered quite a bit, and her spirits had also improved.
She struggled to sit up in bed and looked around.
The room was tidy, warm, and beautiful, with an especially soft blanket. She also saw Miwei’s clothes.
‘It’s Miwei’s room,’ Mia thought. ‘That human has been pretty good to her.’
Then she looked at her wound.
There was some white gauze wrapped around it.
Mia carefully peeled back the gauze, and to her surprise, the wound had already closed up and was healing.
Such a wound wasn’t something an ordinary doctor could heal!
Although Mia didn’t know about “wound infection,” she knew her injury was serious.
Originally, she had planned to rescue her sister and then return to the beast kingdom to find some tribal priests to see if they could help.
Who would have thought her condition would worsen just after seeing Mia?
At the time, she felt like she was done for. But she hadn’t expected to wake up completely unharmed.
‘Did he save me?’ Mia couldn’t help but think of a figure in her hazy memory.
That figure was Richard!
Squeak~
At this moment, the door opened, and Miwei walked in carrying a basin of hot water.
“Sister, you’re awake?!” Miwei was overjoyed to see her sister awake.
“Miwei ~” Mia was also elated, but her excitement caused her wound to ache slightly.
“Sister, don’t get too excited, lie down first,” Miwei said, padding two soft large pillows behind her.
These pillows were naturally bought by Richard from the online marketplace.
Mia leaned back against the soft pillows and felt extremely comfortable!
‘Humans… really know how to enjoy,’ she thought.
“Sister, how did you come here?” Miwei asked.
Mia replied, “I heard that our tribe was attacked by goblins, and you were also captured by them, so I hurried back. I tracked you all the way, following the marks you left in the forest. Fortunately, we had been prepared since childhood, otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to find you.”
It turned out that Miwei and Mia were twins.
When they were young, the two sisters had a good relationship. The beast kingdom was quite chaotic, and fearing getting lost due to the war, the two sisters made a pact with a secret code.
After Mia was captured, although she was locked in an iron cage, she managed to leave some special marks on the ground as she passed through some forests.
Plus, where she had been, had a special scent. Mia had a keen sense of smell, and although the scent had faded after more than ten days, she still managed to find her way here.
Mia’s tracking ability was even better than the best hunters!
Miwei asked with concern, “How did you get injured?”
“To inquire about your whereabouts, I found the goblin camp and killed a few goblins. I was injured by a big goblin.”
Hearing Mia’s words, Miwei was somewhat moved.
Mia spoke lightly, but to infiltrate the goblin camp alone was extremely dangerous~
After chatting for a while, Mia said to her sister, “Miwei , come back with me.”
Hearing the words, Miwei was firm, “Sister, I’m not leaving.”
“Not leaving?” Mia was slightly stunned. She hadn’t expected to come all this way to rescue her, only for Miwei to refuse to leave.
Could it be that she really had feelings for that human?
Miwei said, “Sister, master saved me, and I must repay him. Besides, I don’t know where the people from the tribe have fled to, so I can’t go back!”
“I can help you find them,” Mia said.
Miwei shook her head and replied, “Sister, it’s better here. Master is good to me, and he has many magical abilities. The food he gives me is the best, and he even pays me a salary. Sister, why don’t you stay here too? Don’t go back!”
“You call him master…” Mia finally noticed.
And seeing that not only did Miwei refuse to leave with her, but she also wanted her to stay here, Mia was surprised.
Thinking about it, she sighed deeply.
The beast kingdom was poor and chaotic… If Richard was really good to Miwei, then her staying with him seemed like a good choice.
And she understood her sister. Miwei might seem gentle, but once she made a decision, it was difficult to change her mind!
In other words, even if she wanted to force Miwei to leave, she probably wouldn’t go.
So Mia sighed.
This action from her was quite cute.
“By the way, sister, this time after you were injured, it was all thanks to master saving you. Sister, the missions you’ve undertaken over the years have been very dangerous. There have been several times when you almost died, but they only see you as a warrior machine. The beast kingdom’s influence hasn’t reached here, so you should stay. Master won’t mistreat you!” Miwei persuaded again.
Mia lay back on the bed, feeling somewhat confused.
She recalled her life in the past, which was filled with training and killing. She was actually a bit tired of that kind of life.
But…
Stay here?
In the beast kingdom, she didn’t seem to have much to worry about anymore.
Because the only one she cared about, Miwei, wasn’t there either.
But here, it was all humans.
Then again, Miwei’s master seemed decent.
Even in the beast kingdom, the cat tribe was only a small part, and the people from other tribes were no different from humans to Mia, and even more chaotic. Different tribes often attacked each other for resources and food.
The beast kingdom was also quite poor.
‘Perhaps staying here is also a good choice,’ Mia suddenly thought.
