Chapter 192 Did you miss me [Bonus Chapter]
Max shook his head and smiled "Not yet. I just want to know its price."
Hearing this, they let out a breath. However, Max indeed thought of selling or exchanging for the medicine to heal Flavia.
He knew no matter how indifferent Flavia acted about her scarred face, deep down she was also like other girls who treasured her beauty.
If he helped her now, she should fall for him for sure. But how could he know that unknowingly, she had started to fall for him.
When in forest, whenever she felt lonely, she would remember him and the time she spent with him.
Even when he hugged her in front of everyone, she didn't feel any revulsion and instead felt warmth spread in her heart or she wouldn't have cried.
Belen, Rima and Leticia felt envious of the fact that he showed so much care for Flavia and couldn't help but think ‘Will he do the same if I were in Flavia's situation?'
The answer they got made them feel relieved because it was ‘Yes. He would.' They had seen it when they were in the forest that he indeed treasured them and would treat the same.<sub>pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴ(0)ᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ</sub>
Even so, they felt envious as such was a woman's heart.
Belen sighed and said "Although the value of Mana purifying liquid is very high, it still can't compare to the medicine that can make someone recover their beauty. However, if you add some mana stones, then you should be able to buy it. However, again, I'm not completely sure of these things but I shouldn't be too far off."
"Okay. I understand." Max nodded. Although she wasn't sure, he understood that some miraculous medicine that can make them beautiful once again despite the scar or other problems would be priceless in every woman's eyes and they would want it to keep it with them in case, they fell in similar situation like Flavia's, chance of which were very high since this world required them to fight to survive.
As they were about to return to their dorms, Leticia and others had expressions that they wanted to ask or say something but were hesitating.
Haory noticed it and had a frown on her face as she bade farewell and went on her way.
After she was gone, Max looked at them and asked "Do you want to say something?"
"Yes!" All three of them replied simultaneously.<sub> pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ</sub>
"Okay then, tell me what is it." Max became curious.
Hearing this, they looked at each other and Belen and Rima said to Leticia "Since you are youngest among us, you go ahead and say what to want."
Leticia looked at them speechlessly. She had some idea that they were going to say the same thing but these two made her say it. However, she didn't retort and took a deep breath and got ready to tell what she wanted.
"I… no we, wanted to know that should… should we come to your dorm or you'll come to ours?" She stuttered while asking this and her face became red as tomato in embarrassment.
"Oh!" Max exclaimed and a playful smile appeared on his face as he looked at Rima and Belen "So, you two also want to this?"
Belen and Rima also blushed and nodded while looking away. Seeing them act in such a cute manner, Max felt like kissing them right now but he held back since they were in a public place.
He then said "I'll come to your dorms so you don't need to come to mine okay."<sub> ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕ(ꪫ)ꪣꫀꪶ</sub>
He said this because he wasn't living alone and he didn't want Anna to know about all these women, at least not yet.
After talking to them a bit more, he walked towards his dorm. ‘I wonder if she has already broken through to the two-star or not.' He thought.
When he returned to his dorm room, he didn't find Anna there.
‘Is she out for training?' He thought and lay down on his bed which had her fragrant scent and soon fell asleep.
…
"Yawn!" He woke up after a few hours and yawed.
"Mm?" As he regained his senses, he felt a soft body hugging him. He opened his eyes and a smile appeared on his face.
Anna was hugging him as she lay beside him and was looking at him.
"You woke up?" She said and started to move away.
"Yes." Max lazily said and hugged her back, not letting her go away.
As he felt her soft body and inhaled her fragrant scent, he felt relaxed and murmured "Hah! How much I missed this feeling!"
Hearing this, Anna's cheeks started turning red and she burrow her head in his chest.
pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴ(O)ᴠᴇʟ "Did you miss me?" She asked in a soft voice.
"Yes. I did. Did you?" He replied as his hand caressed her beautiful blonde hair.
"I… I also missed you." She said and her eyes became misty remembering the nights where she had problem sleeping after he went away because she had developed the habit of sleeping while hugging him.
She then raised her head to look at him, "How was the outing experience? Were you in danger? Did you eat on time?"
Hearing her ask so many questions, he smiled and patiently told her how he lived for past month. Of course, he didn't mention anything about what he did with Belen and others.
After hearing everything, Anna looked at him proudly "It seems my little Max has become a lot stronger in this past month."
Max felt warmth in his heart seeing her become happy for him. He was even having second thoughts about asking her to be his woman. Because he didn't want this loving relationship that they currently had to become bad.
There were two main reasons for him wanting to make her his woman even though she was his half-sister.
First one was because he didn't want her to struggle to become stronger and die when encountering some powerful enemy. Therefore, he wanted to help her.
Second one was because, although he had the instinct to protect and care for her that he inherited from Maxwell, he didn't have those familial feelings of siblings and her charm as a woman was fatal to him.
Moreover, in this world, there weren't any restriction to marry one's own cousin or even siblings if they loved each other.
After talking for a while, he asked "Did you break through?"
