Chapter 502: Chapter 42Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the face of his wife who suddenly woke up from a coma after more than a decade, Cambrona was silent for a long time before he spoke.
“How are you?” he asked.
After saying that, he wanted to slap himself.
What the h.e.l.l! My wife has been in a coma for more than ten years. How is she? This question is simply strange to the extreme!
However, Jane’s answer was equally strange. Her eyes were a bit blank. She wasn’t looking at Cambrona; instead, her gaze fell on something in the distance.
“I’m dead,” she said.
What?
If others used the emojis from earth to describe the facial expression of Cambrona at the moment, it would certainly be a big “O-O.”
What does “I’m dead” mean? You were just in a coma, not dead. Moreover, now that you are awake, why do you think that you are dead? Tu Ya’an, you’re so unreliable! Did you hurt Jane’s brain during the treatment?
Many unreasonable thoughts appeared in his mind, but he didn’t know that he really guessed something this time.
Tu Ya’an and his sister bypa.s.sed several rooms and started the preset magic arrays. After completely s.h.i.+elding the sound here, Tessa showed a smug smile.
“Brother, I behaved well, right?” Tessa said. She loosened her hand that had been grabbing the collar of Tu Ya’an. She smiled, and it seemed that she was asking for praise. “If I didn’t save you in time, it might not be so easy for you to get out!”
“Yes! Thank you for that!” Tu Ya’an said. He stood up, patting the dust off his body. There was no pain on his face, but there was fear after the event on his face.
“I was really scared just now! She actually woke up. She should sleep for at least five or six more years,” Tu Ya’an said.
“It’s not surprising when it is related to the G.o.ds. After all, we are only mortal people, so we don’t have to think about such fancy things,” Tessa said.
Tu Ya’an was silent. Then he said, nodding, “You are right. Actually, my great tutor is using my hand to fight against the Shadow a.s.sa.s.sin. No matter which side wins, no matter what the outcome is, it’s not related to me. I just need to pretend that I know nothing. A while later, I’ll send them away, and then I will complete the oracle of my great tutor.”
After thinking for a while, Tessa frowned. She asked, “But, can you really complete your mission?”
“How would I know?” Tu Ya’an said with a bitter smile. “Do you think that I have the courage to stay there and ask, ‘How do you feel, Your Majesty, the Shadow a.s.sa.s.sin?’”
“No! You’ll die,” Tessa answered.
“Yeah, I’ll die,” Tu Ya’an said, sighing deeply. He found a chair to sit down. From the s.p.a.ce pocket, he took out a bottle of iced fruit juice mixed with the essential oil of flowers. He raised his head and drank a big gulp.
The juice that was mixed with ice cubes entered his throat. Feeling the irritating effect of the essential oil and the cold ice, his body couldn’t help but shake, and he suddenly became energetic.
“In any case, the oracle that has tossed me around for more than a decade is finally coming to an end!” Tu Ya’an said.
“Yeah, what happens next doesn’t matter to us,” Tessa said, laughing. “Brother, what are you going to do next?”
“I have to make money first,” Tu Ya’an said. “I have spent too much money in these ten years. I don’t have enough money to buy new clothes for you. In the next ten years, I plan to concentrate on making money first. I’ll save a lot of money before thinking about other things.”
Hearing those words, Tessa suddenly blushed.
She had died when she was young. She was able to regain her soul by relying on her brother’s spells and continued her life in the state of a living dead. However, spells weren’t a panacea. Even if Tu Ya’an had paid a huge price, she couldn’t be a complete person after regaining her soul. She couldn’t grow up anymore. She was forever 13 years old. She lost her sense of taste, smell, and touch. She couldn’t feel cold or hot, and she couldn’t smell flowers. When she ate delicious food, the food tasted no different from soil. She also needed to constantly consume vitality. Every day, she needed to consume almost the same amount of vitality that ordinary people consumed for a month. She had to use legendary equipment to take vitality from powerful demon beasts to maintain her life.
For all these reasons, her remaining entertainment was extremely limited. As a half-dead person between life and death, she didn’t dare show her face. In addition to reading in her room every day, she could only change into beautiful clothes and dress herself up nicely. That was one of the few things that could make her feel alive. She was still a living person, not a monster that was wearing a human body.
Tu Ya’an certainly fully supported his sister’s hobby. For him, her younger sister was the driving force of his progress and the foundation of his survival. Her existence could prove that he was still a living person with flesh and blood. It was the only way to prove that he wasn’t a machine that was dominated by magic power. According to the wording on earth, this guy was a fan of her sister, and he was a super big fan.
In the past ten years, in order to complete the oracle of Ymirjar Le-Peyroux, the G.o.d of Spellcaster, he had consumed a lot of wealth to purchase the materials that he needed for various magic experiments. He could buy all kinds of materials at the cost price because of His Majesty’s authorization, and he could also obtain some extremely precious materials for free directly from those high-level mages and Legendary Mages. However, by purchasing the common materials, he had spent a lot of wealth. He became so poor that he once ran to the Highest Tower to cry in the face of Le-Peyroux.
If the G.o.d of Spellcaster was a rich G.o.d like the G.o.ddess of Wealth, he wouldn’t hesitate to reward Tu Ya’an with a large sum of money. However, Ymirjar Le-Peyroux was also poor even though he was a G.o.d. More importantly, as a typical mage, he didn’t care about money. Therefore, Tu Ya’an just received the improvement of his magic power as a reward, but he couldn’t get a single copper coin.
This irrelevant reward made him feel helpless. Therefore, he had to find a way to raise money. If Jane didn’t wake up in advance, maybe one or two more years later, he would need to run to a friend to borrow money.
Fortunately, Jane had already woken up, and his mission had come to an end. Then, as long as he worked hard to make money, he would soon be able to regain his calm and happy life.
Thinking of that, he couldn’t help but laugh.
On the other side, Cambrona was laughing, too. However, he was laughing bitterly.
His wife woke up from a coma after ten years, but it seemed that something was wrong with her brain.
Jane didn’t respond to his call. She just looked into the distance in a stupid way. It seemed that she was worried about something, so she had no time to look at her husband who was standing in front of her.
He tried to talk with his wife, talking about the past, the future, and the good times that they had spent together. He talked about his own experiences over the years and the prospects for the family. However, Jane was always wearing the same facial expression. She wasn’t moved at all.
The only thing she said was, “I’m dead.”
After a while, Cambrona couldn’t stand it anymore. He took off his coat and put it on his wife, and then took his wife to find Tu Ya’an in the magic tower.
Tu Ya’an was not here. Tessa said that he went out for some other things.
Cambrona had no choice but to temporarily entrust his wife to Tessa. He ran out to prepare suitable clothes for his wife.
After he left, Tessa looked at Jane, silent.
At this moment, Jane was only wearing the coat of Cambrona. The thin coat couldn’t cover her good figure, especially the lady parts that symbolized the great fertility of a woman. They were so majestic that any man would look at them. Tessa’s body was frozen at the age of 13. The difference between their figures was just like the gap between the sky and the ground.
Looking at her figure, Tessa was extremely angry. However, she didn’t dare to lose her temper in the face of this dangerous person. She had to tear a ribbon to ease her anger. She tore it again and again and almost broke it into pieces.
Jane didn’t speak, and she didn’t want to talk to others. Therefore, the room was totally silent.
This silence lasted for a long time until Cambrona returned.
He brought back a lot of clothes, roughly the style that Jane had liked before the coma. It was s.e.xy, feminine, and full of charm. Tessa was even more unhappy.
In particular, Cambrona took his wife to go to his room to change clothes. It took them a long time before they came out. When they came out, there was a suspicious flush on his face. Tessa even wanted to tear the shameless couple into pieces with her honorable claws! How dare they do that activity in her house!
Obviously, she couldn’t tear them into pieces. If she really fought with them, she didn’t fear Cambrona although he was a powerful knight. However, Jane was here, too. As long as the suspicious woman had even one-thousandth of her true strength, Jane could kill her instantly without a drop of sweat.
Therefore, she didn’t dare to do it. She could only show an unhappy face, asking the waiter in the magic tower to arrange accommodation for the Cambrona couple.
Of course, she didn’t forget to ask him when they planned to leave.
“Leave? I am not going to leave for the time being,” Cambrona said. “Although Jane is awake, something wrong may also happen to her. I’ll wait until Tu Ya’an comes back. I’ll ask him to do a detailed examination of Jane and then to carry out a follow-up treatment. In short, she must be totally cured.”
d.a.m.n cure! If my brother is so powerful, would I still be a half-dead person?
Tessa secretly complained in her heart, but she didn’t dare to show it on her face. She asked Cambrona indifferently whether he needed to change his room or to arrange a room for Jane.
In the past, he had lived in a single room. Now that there were two people, then of course he would need a two-person room.
It required temporary renovation of the residential area within the Magic Tower, but it wasn’t difficult for Tessa. She could command the construction team of the monster statues.
“Of course, a double room!” Cambrona said. He gave a thumbs up to the girl who was much younger than him. “There should be a big bed in the room! And a big bathtub!”
Speaking of this, he couldn’t help but look at his wife again. He licked his lips and smiled, narrowing his eyes.
Pervert! Tessa thought.
Tessa was so irritated. She even wanted to bite the neck of that idiot.
She turned around, and then she said indifferently, “I see.” Then she left. If she still stayed there, she was afraid that she might bite him.
However, she still completed Cambrona’s wishes. That night, the Cambrona couple lived in a new room.
As for why Cambrona had dark circles under his eyes in the next morning, and why he had soft legs, that was something else.
