Chapter 974: Nearly Dead
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“0542! What’s going on? Why did Isabella lose her memory?” Although Jiang Fei was severely injured, he was more concerned about Isabella’s reaction.
“Captain, you are overthinking things… Even you would be in a daze if you have slept for too long, let alone Isabella who has been sealed in an empty s.p.a.ce for such a long time. She needs time to adjust herself. She’ll be fine in a while,” 0542 explained.
“Oh, I see. Ehh…” Jiang Fei finally calmed down. However, as soon as he relaxed his mind, Jiang Fei could feel the pain from his injuries. Bella had struck him very harshly. It was a miracle that he was still alive.
“Sister Bella, think carefully. Have you really forgotten about us?” Ariel was doing her best to help Isabella in recalling her memory.
“Ehh… Give me a moment. My head is pounding…” Isabella waved her hands. She was overwhelmed by the large amount of information flowing through her mind.
After approximately ten minutes, Isabella finally stood up straight. She looked much calmer.
“I remember now. My name is Isabella? And you’re Ariel? We didn’t actually die! Who is he?” Isabella asked with a frown. As this was the real world, Isabella could only recognize Ariel whose face had been designed according to her features in the game. However, Jiang Fei’s appearance in the game had been modified.
Therefore, Jiang Fei’s appearance and aura in the real world differed very much from when he was in the game. Although Isabella remembered that her lover was Verdure Glider, she could not recognize him as Jiang Fei even though he was standing right in front of her.
“Eh? No. Your aura doesn’t feel right either. Who are the both of you?” Isabella asked with a frown. Although Ariel looked exactly as she did in the game, Isabella paid more attention to her aura than her appearances.
“I really am Ariel. Sister Bella, this is difficult to explain. This is not our world. It is Ah Fei’s world!” Ariel explained.
“Wait a second…” Just as Ariel tried to explain further to Isabella, a stream of information appeared in Isabella’s mind.
This was the final piece of information 0542 had injected into her brain, which included general knowledge and languages of the real world.
“Is this really Ah Fei’s world?” Isabella found it hard to accept such a reality.
“That’s right!” Ariel nodded. After that, she told Isabella many things that only the two of them would know about. Isabella finally believed what Ariel said.
“Have we really been resurrected in our husband’s world?” Isabella asked in disbelief.
“Yeah. Look how badly you have injured our husband…” Ariel said as she pointed at Jiang Fei.
“Ahh?” Isabella was taken by surprise as she immediately looked at Jiang Fei. Although Jiang Fei’s appearances had been modified in the game, the 10% adjustment did not make too much of a difference. Therefore, Isabella very quickly recognized Jiang Fei as Verdure Glider.
“Ouch… Ouch…” Jiang Fei behaved as if he was about to pa.s.s out.
Jiang Fei’s injuries had not actually worsened. He was only trying to get Isabella to sympathize with him.
Jiang Fei knew he had wooed many ladies behind Isabella’s back. He would probably not be forgiven that easily. Fortunately, Isabella had already physically hurt him. With her sympathy, Jiang Fei would probably be able to get her to accept the situation more willingly.
Indeed, Jiang Fei had learned a lot from Han Tianyu on how to deal with women. If Jiang Fei were still the kid from high school, he would not have thought of such ideas.
Jiang Fei was doing a good job of pretending to be badly injured. He leaned against a large rock and occasionally exhaled without inhaling. His limbs would even jerk around a little occasionally. He truly looked as if he were about to die.
Jiang Fei might be able to fool others with his pretense. However, Isabella was a Level 5 expert who could determine his level of injury based on his body’s aura.
“Alright, that’s enough. Stop pretending…” Isabella walked over to Jiang Fei and gave him a gentle kick.
“Ouch… That hurt…” Jiang Fei had still not given up.
“Pffft… If you don’t stop pretending, I’m going to kick you even harder!” Isabella chuckled.
“No, please don’t! You’ve touched my wound. It really hurts…” Jiang Fei quickly sat upright. He knew that Isabella was a woman of her words. In fact, the young lady was very rough. If he continued his pretense, he knew that she really would hit him.
After Jiang Fei had sat upright, Isabella carefully examined his injuries. Although his life was not in danger, his body was indeed badly hurt. Moreover, she did feel sorry for putting him in such a state.
Although she felt sorry, Isabella was too proud to apologize. Therefore, she pouted as she spoke, “Hmph! You were the one who acted perversely! You deserved it!”
“I was only trying to protect you… How am I supposed to know that you enjoyed being naked…” Jiang Fei murmured softly. In fact, Jiang Fei could not help but slowly s.h.i.+ft his gaze upward. Right then, Isabella was only wearing the cloak which Jiang Fei had placed on her. There was nothing else covering her body. Although she had wrapped the cloak around her body tightly, Jiang Fei was still trying his luck to see through it.
“Do you want to die?” Isabella exclaimed as she pounced onto Jiang Fei. Despite his soft voice, Isabella had still heard what he said.
“Ahem… Stop messing around. I’m really going to die…” Isabella was indeed physically rough. Although she had not exerted a lot of strength when she pounced onto Jiang Fei, his body was still badly injured. He could have really lost a limb or two when Isabella pressed her body against him.
“Ahh…” Isabella recollected herself. She had forgotten about Jiang Fei’s injuries.
“0542, this isn’t a show. Give me some potions!” Although Jiang Fei was shouting at 0542, there was a wicked smile on his face. Clearly, he had enjoyed the moment Isabella pounced on him.
As the remaining Level 5 energy had been removed by Isabella, Jiang Fei only had to bear the physical injuries in his body. After drinking a few potions, Jiang Fei would be able to fully recover. Injuries caused by metahumans were difficult to heal mainly because the enemy’s energy would remain in the victim’s body. As long as this was resolved, most of the traditional medicine from the bigger sects in the Martial Art Alliance would work almost as effectively as Jiang Fei’s potions.
Within half an hour, Jiang Fei had fully recovered from his adverse injuries. Moreover, Isabella had also changed into a pretty outfit which Jiang Fei had prepared for her.
Unfortunately, Isabella, like Ariel, were Level 5 experts who could instantly teleport. Therefore, Jiang Fei did not have an opportunity to peek at her when she was changing into her new clothes.
