Chapter 129: An Accidental Encounter (1)
"Huff..." Under Ulysses' Healing magic, Arcelia's face was no longer that pale. Although she got off the bed, her steps were still a little unstable. But she was able to stand up after all. However, after barely taking a step or two, she became breathless.
"Are you really okay? Miss Arcelia, your injury was quite severe. If you were an ordinary person, you might have died many times!" Ulysses looked worriedly at Arcelia, who was panting loudly.
"Huff huff... I'm fine. I am not an ordinary person, but a level seven knight who owns Phantasm like you. Besides, the Phantasm I have has the ability of healing. Based on the current situation, my injury will disappear completely after three hours. In addition, you don't have to call me Miss Arcelia, just call me Arcelia. As a knight, I am not very used to that honorific." Arcelia said while panting loudly.
"Then, if you don't mind, I'll call you Arcelia. But it's better to rest. You are safe now. Come, I will help you to walk back to bed and rest." Ulysses walked to Arcelia, who was a little unstable, held her shoulders, and gently led her back to the bed.
"Uh!" When Ulysses held Arcelia's shoulder, she was obviously taken aback, and her face flushed unconsciously. Although she wanted to push Ulysses away immediately, her physical strength was not enough to support her against Ulysses, so she had no choice but to be held reluctantly by him and brought back to the bed.
"Please take a good rest in bed. If your injury really disappears after three hours, and if you have enough physical strength, you can get out of bed by yourself. But now you should really take a good rest. I'm leaving first, and I'll see you in three hours. Please don't move around again." Ulysses gently covered Arcelia with a sheet, and then said a few more words before leaving.
I didn't expect that this demon king named Ulysses would be such a caring person! If what he said about his dream is not a lie, I think I somewhat understand why the apostles conceal their existence. Although I only met him for a short time, I can already feel his warm heart, but why does he, who can bring warmth to people, have the identity of a demon king? Is there some kind of secret?' Seeing Ulysses disappearing behind the door, Arcelia was lost in thought.
Arcelia is really a very strong girl. She was injured so badly last night. Even if she has a Phantasm that can heal her, the pain after the injury will not disappear easily, but she doesn't care about it at all... Ah! This is?!' Ulysses, who left the Arcelia room and walked in the cabin corridor, was thinking about the conversation he had just with Arcelia. Suddenly, he felt that his feet seemed to touch something...
At this time, in Aya's room on the bottom of the ship, Helen was reporting to Aya who was floating in the air.
"Sister Aya, the third apostle is gone."
"Gone, when was it?" Aya frowned slightly, and said angrily.
"I don't know, I didn't see her when I went to see Arcelia's room today. It seems that she went somewhere on the Ulysses."
"Oh. I will contact Lapis to see where she is." Aya closed her eyes and sent out a spiritual wave in the direction of the control room.
The golden eyes of Lapis in the control room flashed a few times, and soon a spiritual wave was returned to Aya, but the content of this spiritual wave was...
"What a coincidence. She is with the master. Then there is no need to worry. Let's continue discussing the plan on how to make the master a qualified demon king!" After receiving the spiritual wave from Lapis, Aya's face changed. It was a little weird, but she quickly returned to normal and continued to chat with Helen.
Beautiful pink fur, bright red eyes gleaming like rubies, two long ears moving from time to time, and a little tail moving mischievously behind it, this was the true face of the object accidentally touched by Ulysses - a cute pink rabbit.
The pink rabbit that was accidentally touched by Ulysses seemed to be frightened, and immediately shrank its whole body into a ball, shaking constantly, it was unspeakably pitiful. Ulysses even saw a look of fear and horror in its two eyes. But the strange thing was that it didn't run away, but curled up in the corner of the corridor just like that.
"Sorry! I didn't notice you just now, so I accidentally bumped into you." Ulysses scratched his head, said apologetically in embarrassment. He then gently hugged the pink rabbit in his arms.
It's very warm!' This was Ulysses' first feeling when he touched the tiny body of the pink rabbit. In fact, when he reached out to hold the pink rabbit, he was ready for it to escape, but to his surprise, the pink rabbit with an expression of fear and fear did not refuse his hug, but let him gently hug it in his arms.
What made Ulysses even more strange was that the pink rabbit stopped shaking soon after being held in his arms, and the look of fear in its eyes slowly disappeared. Then it closed its eyes comfortably and lay in his arms obediently.
What made Ulysses feel most incredible was that he felt the same connection for this pink rabbit as Arcelia and Helen, as if something on his body was connected with this pink rabbit. And when he held it in his arms, he also vaguely felt the fear in his heart. He wondered if this was its feeling.
But in any case, it was great that this pink bunny was obedient and did not run around. But how did it get on the Ulysses?
This pink rabbit seems to be' Ulysses gently stroked the soft fur of the pink rabbit in his arms, while recalling the origin of this pink rabbit. But what he didn't notice was that when he stroked the pink rabbit's fur in his arms, "she" was shaking all over, and at the same time she let out a soft cry.
Ah, yes, this is the pink rabbit Helen once held in her arms on the desert island! So she actually took it on the Ulysses. It seems that she likes this pink rabbit very much.' After thinking for a while, Ulysses finally remembered the origin of this pink rabbit.
Helen should still be sleeping in the room at this time, I should give it back to her at breakfast.' Ulysses thought for a while and made a decision.
So, what should I do now? There should be some time before breakfast, Helen and Cherie are probably still sleeping. Rasputin is probably preparing breakfast. Should I go to see Aya? Forget it. I think it's better that I go to the deck to have some fresh air.' Thinking of this, Ulysses hugged the pink rabbit in his arms and walked towards the deck.
The sea in the early morning was very calm, with almost no big waves. Some strange-shaped fish jump out from under the sea from time to time, which made people feel that it was very interesting. But these fish couldn't get close to the Ulysses. As long as they get more than a hundred meters away from the Ulysses, they would feel dizzy and fall straight from the air. It seemed that this was the effect of the illusion system that Aya said.
In the east of the sea, a huge red sun was slowly rising. The warm and soft sunlight that shone on people made people feel unspeakably comfortable. The breeze blew, bringing a breath of the sea, it was intoxicating.
It's been a long time since I'm so relaxed.' Ulysses took a deep breath, feeling the slightly fishy smell of the sea in the air. The muscles all over his body relaxed at this time. Recently, he had been overwhelmed with many events, battle after battle, exclusive sword training that he had never been done before, and that damn realm of infinite desire...
The pink rabbit in Ulysses's arms seemed to be infected by his happy mood, and began to move around in his arms, looking very energetic. Its silky fur and warm body made Ulysses feel unspeakably comfortable. At this time, he seemed to understand why many people like to keep pets.
What a cute little guy.' Ulysses couldn't help but gently stroke its soft and warm fur again. Under his stroke, the pink rabbit uttered a low voice expressing joy again, and lay obediently in Ulysses's palm.
Oh right, since there is nothing to do, I can go and see Lapis. She should be a little lonely in that control room all the time. I should say thank you to her. Without her, we still don't know when we can return to the continent.' For some reason, this idea came to Ulysses' mind. After looking up at the control room on the deck, he walked up slowly.
