Chapter 549: 548: Congee Serving

"Did you say you have fully recovered?" Leon repeated with surprise, "How is that possible?" 

Duna's last slap was not taken to heart at all. On the contrary, her proclaimed recovery came as a shock to him. 

"I can't confirm for sure since we are still inside Lumi's spiritual world. However, I do have a strong feeling that my wounds have all healed."

As Duna said this, she gave Leon a peculiar look, "I didn't expect for your body to be this unique." 

"I did not expect this either. Who knew that your body can be recovered this way," Leon said with a wry smile. 

After practicing the [Hegemon of Primal Chaos] technique, not only did his body constitution change but also his soul constitution. 

Did he manage to transfer some of his Great pseudo-Grandmist Energy through his spiritual avatar? 

After shaking his head, Leon urged, "Come, let us continue. Maybe there are still more things for us to discover together." 

As Leon took a step closer, Duna could be seen retreating a step before giving him a disdainful look. 

"You really are an irredeemable animal. Don't get ahead of yourself. Just because we did it a few times, it doesn't mean anything changed between us. Don't think that you are someone special. If there had been other candidates that are also able to enter this spiritual world, I would have done that same to them," She stated coldly. 

Leon immediately raised an eyebrow and shot her a fierce glare, "You dare?!"

"Hmph!" Duna turned her head away from Leon with a snort and averted her gaze. She was not being serious.

"Ahem." Leon coughed before changing the topic, "Since you believe you have recovered, are you able to wake up on your own? Or do you need my help for this?" 

"And how will you help me exactly? I am warning you; you better not have done anything weird to our body. What happened is only between us. My sister is off-limits!" Duna said defensively with a guarded expression. 

Leon felt awkward being viewed like some sex fiend. 

Nevertheless, he raised an eyebrow before he said, "Why are you speaking like I would take advantage of your unconscious state? Do you think your body was in any state for me to do anything? Don't forget that you were also the one who pushed me down and rode my dragon. You were a bigger animal than I was!" 

Although this was what he said, he did not deny the possibility that he would not have done anything if Duna and Lumi's body was in a good state otherwise.

Boom.

The surrounding temperature around Duna seemed to have dropped while her head was lowered, and her expression could not be seen before a malevolent aura surged out from her body. 

"Ahem, I was just joking… just joking. I didn't mean it. If you can wake up on your own, then I will be leaving first." Leon stated before preparing to escape. 

"Wait."

Duna immediately grabbed his hand and stopped him, causing Leon to turn his gaze back before he asked, "What is it?"

"…Help me." Duna spat with her head lowered and her facial expression hidden under her long black hair. She did not know how to get out.

"Alright."

Leon smiled. 

At the same time, his thumb rubbed against Duna's soft hand as he wondered if her hands would have also been this supple and delicate if she was still alive with a living body.

Duna furrowed slightly at his sneaky action, but she chose to remain silent this time.

Leon was a little surprised that Duna did not resist despite taking small advantage of her and began to feel a little excited. Shortly after, he began to suggest, "Before that, how about we…"

"No." Duna immediately shot him down before he even got to finish speaking.

"Okay…"

...

Western Frontier, Great Wall. 

During the first night of the Cataclysm, the air was cooled, and torches were lit throughout Military City, illuminating the area.

Soldiers transported heavy loads of supplies from nearby cities and moved heavy rubbles from broken buildings while civilians swept the streets, assisting where they can.

On the Elder Tree's side, elves have begun constructing new homes out of vines around the foot of the big tree while another group was tasked with plotting lands and cultivating crops in the nearby fields.

Meanwhile, Faelyn participated in the large-scale cooking with other fellow tribesmen and made huge congee portions with herbal spices and vegetable toppings before they were distributed to both elves and humans in the region. 

Although the congee looked simple, it was definitely not your average everyday congee—at least, the soldiers and civilians in the Western Frontier thought so.

The rich, mellow taste, the fragrant smell that whets their appetite, the soothing warmth as it flows down their throats, and the invigorating feeling as it settled in their stomach. 

"This is some good stuff. Who knew elvish delicacies could reach such impressive heights? I'm a meat person, but this is something else."

"Right? If you told me just a bit of grain, vegetables, and spices could produce something like this in the past, I would not have believed it. But now? I certainly do!"

The soldiers chatted merrily over their breaks in the midst of the Cataclysm.

As Faelyn continued to stir the big pot of congee, a sudden commotion broke out in the distance before she raised her head to look. 

Princess Thessalia was seen covered in dirt and soil as she made her way through the crowd and picked up an empty bowl from the big bowl stack. 

Everyone made way for her with looks of concern while some offered their services to prepare fresh clothes and baths for her.

Nevertheless, Princess Thessalia ignored them and reached the congee pot before she held out her empty bowl with both hands and said, "I'm hungry."

"S-Sister? Why are you so dirty?! What have you been doing?" Faelyn asked with a near-shrieking tone in surprise.

Only after Faelyn brought up the matter did Thessalia glanced down and inspected herself. She gave a slow nod before she said, "Oh, I was digging graves for my fallen guards."

Faelyn immediately dropped the ladle in the congee pot before she grabbed her third eldest sister's hand and dragged her away, "Come with me! This is no way for a lady to look!"
