When Fawn woke up, it was already morning.
Before he even opened his eyes, he smelled the aroma of barbecue, which made his stomach growl.
He sat up, feeling sore all over. When he was still in the winery, he was a master and slept on a soft big bed, but last night he slept on the floor all night. His old bones really couldn't bear such a torment.
"Master, you're awake. Let's eat something first."
The source of the fragrance is Peya’s roasted animal meat.
Fan took the barbecue from Peiya and took a few bites. He found his daughter sitting in a daze under a nearby tree, so he asked:
"Sally, have you eaten yet?"
"I'm not hungry." Sally glanced at the barbecue in her father's hand and shook her head.
After Fine finished eating, the three of them continued to set off, aiming for the border city of Aitra. They planned to rent a carriage there and then head to the neighboring small country of Zahari, where Sally's grandmother lived.
After half a day's journey, the three of them had seen the road sign leading to Aitra, with only a dozen miles left to go.
Faen was used to living in a pampered way, and it had been a long time since he had walked such a long distance. When he got here, he felt his mouth was dry and his stomach was empty.
There was a log hotel near the intersection, and the three of them went to the hotel to rest. Fan ordered a table of dishes. Although the dishes looked very rough, they didn't care about the taste at the moment.
After Fan had eaten and drank enough, he found that his daughter had not moved a bite. He thought that she could not get used to the rough food in the wilderness shop, so he advised:
"Sally, the situation is special now. Just make do with it and eat as much as you can. When you get to your grandma's house, you can have whatever you want. Your grandma was a famous gourmet when she was young."
"I'm not hungry without my father." Sally forced a smile.
Fawn sighed, wondering if he had spoiled Sally in the past.
"Okay, since you don't want to eat the food here, drink some water. I see you haven't had a sip of water along the way."
"Uh...I'm not thirsty either."
Just as Fan was about to reprimand his daughter, he suddenly remembered the mysterious power his daughter showed last night, and was suddenly shocked. Could there be something wrong with Sally's body?
"Sally, are you... okay?"
"Father, I'm fine," Sally said. "If you have rested well, let's continue setting off. I want to get to the city as soon as possible."
"Okay, let's go."
The three of them left the hotel and continued towards Aitela in the direction indicated by the road signs.
On the way, Peiya took out the kettle and handed it to Sally, and whispered: "Sally, I know what you are worried about, but you can't do it without eating or drinking. At least drink some water."
Sally looked at the kettle handed by Peia, pushed it back and said: "Peia, thank you, but I'm really not thirsty. I didn't lie to you. Do you look at me like I'm thirsty?"
Peiya looked carefully at the young lady's face. Although she had not eaten anything or drank water since last night, her face was still fair and delicate, and her lips were still moist and attractive.
"Huh? Is this also the effect of those woolen pants?"
"When you say that, I feel a little strange," Sally said. "I had a strange feeling along the way..."
"What weird feeling?"
"It seems that there is something invisible that has been drilling into my body. Although it is very subtle, I can detect it as long as I calm down. Could this be the reason?"
"Ah!" Peiya seemed to have thought of something, "Do you still remember the female magician in town who helps people with divination?"
"That aunt who is obviously very old but still pretends to be young. I remember her. What's wrong?"
"You forgot, one time we went shopping together in town, and you suddenly had a stomachache and went to her store to borrow the toilet." Peiya reminded.
"Ah, that time, we were only twelve years old at that time, right? I remember she said there was no toilet in the store, but after she touched my belly with her hand, I was fine. This is related to the topic we just discussed what relationship?"
"Didn't you ask her at that time why there is no toilet in the store? She told us that powerful magicians don't need to go to the toilet. So I was thinking that you are so good in those trousers, you are definitely better than ordinary magicians. Now, don’t you need to eat or drink water?”
Hearing Peiya's speculation, Sally's eyes suddenly lit up.
"So I don't have to poop... Well, anyway, if that's true, that'd be great."
Some people died, but not completely...
