When Ringer woke up, he was lying on the big bed in the lounge.
"Great, you finally woke up." Lanya knelt down beside him, her eyes sparkling with tears.
"How do you feel now?"
Lin Ge sat up, feeling more comfortable than ever before. His body seemed to become stronger, and the magic power in his body also surged, which made him feel incredible.
"It's okay, don't worry."
"But on your head..." Lanya moved her gaze to the top of Linger's head and hesitated to speak.
When Lin Ge saw her appearance, he raised his hand and touched something that was not there before on both sides of his forehead. It felt hard, cold and smooth to the touch.
He quickly used the Water Mirror Technique to check his status.
The water elements gathered in front of him, forming a mirror in which his face was reflected.
"horn?"
The man's pupils in the mirror shrank, and there were a pair of pitch-black horns on both sides of his forehead, about 10 centimeters long, slightly curved, with the tips pointed upward.
"I originally wanted to take you to find a priest," Lanya rubbed her eyes, "but horns suddenly grew on your head. I was worried that you would be regarded as a heretic, so I had to drag you to the bed."
Linger looked at Lanya's petite body and could imagine that she must have spent a lot of effort dragging herself onto the bed.
"Thank you for your hard work. How long have I been unconscious?"
"Less than an hour."
Seeing that Lanya still looked worried, Linger reached out and touched her soft hair and smiled: "Don't worry, I'm fine. Not only is I fine, my strength and magic power have been greatly strengthened."
Lanya stared blankly at Linger and the horns on his head.
"Is it because you signed a contract with the Demon King? I heard that if you sacrifice your soul or body to the Demon, you will receive strength in return. There are many evil sects that worship the Demon and do this."
Linger's heart moved. Lanya's words gave him another idea. The cause of his physical changes may not necessarily be those bottles of unknown wine. Maybe it has something to do with the contract?
But why didn't the horns grow immediately when the contract was signed? Was there a delay?
No matter what the reason was, he didn't want to delve into it. It had already grown and he couldn't pull it out.
What to do if you pull it out and it spurts out blood? Even if it doesn't spurt out blood, it would be very bad if something else spurts out.
And as long as we return to Earth, it should be corrected.
As for the other world, I don’t know about other cities. At least on the streets of Castalon, you can see half-dogs, lizardmen, tauren and other other races at any time. In this case, there are a pair of The corners are also normal.
Lanya's words broke his delusion.
"Linger, from now on you should wear a hat when going out, cover your corners, or wrap them with bandages."
"Why?" Linge was confused. "Aren't there many races on the street with horns?"
"But you are human, and you have no obvious characteristics of a mixed race. If you are just a pair of horns, people will be suspicious. If someone finds out that you are related to the Underground Demon King, we will be doomed."
"Well, in that case, I'll wear a hood when going out from now on... No, the hood might get poked, and I'll need a bigger hat."
"Use my hat."
Lanya took her purple wizard hat from the bedside and pulled out another hat from the hat. This was her spare hat, which was exactly the same as the one she originally wore, but it had no storage function.
Ringer looked at the wizard hat in her hand. It looked cute on a magical girl, but it was not suitable for him.
"This hat is too small. I'll go to the mall tomorrow to buy a suitable one."
Lanya held the purple wizard hat with a disappointed expression, so Linger touched her head:
"Thank you anyway."
…
When Elise and Nilu entered the store together, they saw Ringer at the bar and a pair of horns on his head.
"Ouch, I haven't seen you all night, why did you grow horns? Hahaha, you look so stupid." Elise pointed at Ringer's head and laughed unscrupulously.
"I think it's a bit cute." Nilu looked at the horns on Linger's head and smiled softly.
Whether it was Elise's ridicule or Nilu's compliment of "cuteness", Ringer couldn't be happy and could only wipe the cup silently.
Nelu and Elise entered the lounge together. After a few minutes, only Elise came out.
Elise got into the bar and walked around Ringer, looking left and right, as if observing rare creatures, and snickering from time to time.
"Have you seen enough?" No matter how good-tempered Linger was, he still couldn't stand her gaze as if he were observing a rare creature.
"No, can I touch your horns?"
Elise rubbed her white hands, looking eager to try.
"Then can you provide me with the secretion of Lord-level spiders?"
Elise blushed, wrinkled her nose, her little hands settled down, and finally she was quiet for a while.
After a while he asked again:
"Have you seen the Underground Demon King? What does he look like? Is he a boy or a girl?"
"uncertain."
"Not sure what that means. Didn't you sign a contract with him and he gave you a title?"
"Because I haven't seen his true face yet, and his body has been shrouded in darkness."
Even though he knew the name of the Demon King, Ringer still did not dare to judge the Demon King's gender. He could only be sure if he saw it with his own eyes.
"Then who do you think is stronger, me or him?" Elise asked again.
"How do I know?" What a boring question.
"Just judge based on your feelings, who is stronger, me or the Demon King?"
Elise stared at Ringer's face, her sky-blue eyes full of stubbornness, as if he would not give up easily until he gave a definite answer.
"Hmm..." Linge pondered.
"Well, what do you mean?" Elise said dissatisfied, "Just tell me, I won't be angry."
Looking at Elise's hypocritical smile, Linge was sure that if she said that the Demon King was stronger than her, she would definitely go crazy.
Maybe she would even pester him to take her to fight with the Demon King. Thinking of this, he immediately made a decision in his heart.
"Haha, you are stronger."
"Why are you laughing? I'm asking you very seriously. Again, I want to hear the truth."
"Um……"
"Stop humming like a cow and speak up."
At this time, the wind chimes outside the store rang, saving Ringo from fire and water.
"Hurry up, the guests are coming." Lin Ge said quickly.
Elise snorted and had no choice but to let go of Lin Ge's clothes.
Lin Ge straightened out his clothes that were a little messy because of Elise's pull, and looked at the door. It was Messe who pushed the door open.
She looked very refreshing without drinking, with a capable temperament.
"Linge, have you told your store manager about the cooperation?" Mather walked to the bar and sat down in a few steps and asked about the cooperation.
"I've already asked the store manager, and there's no problem." Ringer glanced at Dios running around in the bar, "But there are some problems with the supply of raw materials."
