137- Completion of Second stage treatment

‘ding’

‘Sheela Lama has issued the second condition: Protect Armelia.’

‘ding'

‘Berth Urag has issued the first condition: Protect Armelia.’

‘ding’

Does the host wish to accept these two conditions?’

‘[YES] or [No]’

‘ding’

‘Note: Failing to accept these two conditions will lead to heaven’s punishment and death.’

Of course, I know that. I accept.

“Of course, I will take care of Armelia. You don’t have to use it as a condition and I don’t hold any grudge against your actions because for me getting rid of the poison is more important than anything.”

I answered. But surprisingly, Sheela bowed and spoke

“I will not ask you to forgive me or anything. And I am ready to bear any kind of compensation you ask of me. And if you really do not hold any grudge against my actions then please ask for anything and I promise that I will try to fulfill it.”

Now, Sheela has even ignored her pride and even bowed to me. So, if I don’t ask for any compensation now then it would not look good. And I know exactly what I need,

“Since you insist on compensating me, then I would like to have 200 low grade energy stones.”

“Heh, brat you would only ask for measly 200 low grade energy stones? If I was in your place, then I would at least ask for 2000 low grade energy stones and be allowed to pick one or two treasures from the treasury.”

Bertha intervened after I finished speaking.

What Bertha said is true, but I don’t think that Sheela would be able to give that huge amount of low grade energy stones. And I don’t want to get on the bad side of a Royalty realm powerhouse, at least not yet.

“I am satisfied with this amount of energy stones and I already owe 300 low grade energy stones to Sheela, so I don’t want to borrow more. Plus, the Lamia tribe is undergoing some financial trouble and I have received such a good hospitability from them, instead of putting more pressure on them, I would rather try helping them.”

“Well, whatever. Hmph.”

Bertha snorted.

But Sheela insisted on Bertha’s idea but I declined. So, after some discussions, it was decided that I would choose 2 treasures from the treasure house and Sheela would give me 200 low grade energy stones.

After that, Bertha started her treatment.

When she was done, she said,

“Hey, the quality of your blood and body has reached an astonishing degree. If any of the monsters below the Transformation realm eats your flesh, then they would gain amazing results. And for those who have just stepped into the Transformation realm, they too can get little benefits. If you are planning to sell your flesh, then contact me.”

What the fuSKKKK...

Just listening to her I got goosebumps and I felt a chill run down my spine, and my body shivered instinctively.

“Bertha, stop making such kind of jokes.”

Said Sheela angrily and released her Royalty realm pressure.

“Hehe... I was just joking.”

Feeling this pressure, Bertha laughed dryly, and even if Sheela’s pressure was not directed towards me, I felt difficulty in breathing.

I guess, Sheela must be a lot stronger than Bertha, I need to reevaluate Sheela’s strength.

Then Sheela looked at me and said,

“Orochi, you can go back to your room and one month later your marriage with Armelia will take place and her take these 200 low grade energy stone.”

“Yes”

I quickly went back to my room.

.

.

One month later.

In front of me, a skinny boy with hardly any fat on his body and with shrunken muscles was standing and looking at me.

The skin on his chest was attached to his rib cage as if they were glued and if one tried pulling the skin, then it would be like the skin is being forcefully separated or torn from the rib cage. Actually, it would be even difficult for an average man to even pinch the skin which would allow him to get a proper grip on the skin.

As for his arms, if an adult man makes an ‘O’ shape with his middle finger and thumb joined at their ends, then his whole arm could pass between the ‘O’ shaped fingers without any obstruction.

Even his legs and thighs were not in good condition.

As for his face, although I am not able to discern between beautiful & normal looking women or handsome & normal/ average looking men because this is an anime world, but I can say for sure that this guy doesn’t come anywhere in the handsome guy's range. Because, his cheeks are sunken, the skin is attached to the skull so much that one can easily learn the cuts, contours, shape of facial bones and remember them. Even experts might be able to carve a skull with that clarity.

The only noteworthy features on his body are his eyes and the color of his hair.

He has violet colored eyes and black hair, which reaches up to his waist.

Now, violet colored eyes might be considered as good looking but what’s so special about black hair?

But those normal black has something special to it and it cannot be described in simple words.

That boy was none other me. I was looking at myself in the mirror.

[Author’s note: I have not given any proper MC’s body description till now, so I wanted to take the opportunity of this scene and do so.]

A few days ago, the poison was completely removed from my body and the ‘Poison Resistance’ has also leveled up 11 times.

I must say that the ‘Nine time destroying herb’ is really a scary thing. Even if the amount of poison in my body was low, my body was still not able to revert back to normal.

Although, after refining all the organs, muscles, bones, etc, I was able to expel all the poison from them, but for them to revert back to normal, they must receive nutrients.

But the ‘Nine time destroying herb’ had been hindering it. Although, its amount had decreased, but it was still able to hinder muscle recovery. So, no matter how many HP potions or nutritious food I eat, it will not show any effect. But now that all the poison has been removed, my body is showing small signs of recovery. And it won’t be long before, I am able to get back to a healthy body.

Today is the day of my marriage with Armelia. I picked up the clothes prepared for the marriage and got dressed.
