Chapter 103

~5 min read 995 words

She hadn't felt the sensation of food bouncing between her lips and teeth for a long, long time.

"... You're greedy yourself, aren't you."

Silver Wolf's eyes twitched, and she moved her nose slightly and said:

"It's grilled fish... hmm, frozen fish, sprinkled with cumin and chili powder."

"Fragrant, very fragrant, ten out of nine parts fragrant."

"Be on guard." Firefly shook her head, eliminating the noisy thoughts.

She and Silver Wolf together carefully touched the edge of the cave and looked silently into the cave...

Inside the cave, there was only a lazy man leaning against the rock, grilling fish meat that was sizzling with oil over a campfire.

Whether it was his clothing or appearance, the man seemed to be just an ordinary man.

But the first moment Firefly saw him, she felt a burst of goosebumps.

The instinct she had honed through countless battles kept reminding her of the danger and terror of the man before her.

Even the sky-covering Swarm was not as terrifying as this man.

Even the cloud-covering Mother Bug was not as powerful as this man.

Beneath this man's mortal-like flesh and blood, what was hidden was a magnificent existence that mortals could hardly imagine.

"Silver Wolf..."

Some sweat flowed down Firefly's head.

"What's wrong?" Silver Wolf raised her head and looked at Firefly.

"Get ready, I'll count one, two, three, and we'll run together."

Firefly lowered her voice and said seriously:

"Remember, if the person inside chases us, don't look back."

"I'll stop him, you run away with all your might."

"Eh?" Silver Wolf widened her eyes slightly.

"Very strong, this guy..."

Firefly's body swayed slightly:

"If he gets serious, I'm afraid I'll be killed in an instant."

"..." Silver Wolf's expression wasn't good: "Don't say things like that, parting by life and death or something..."

"..."

Just at this moment, the lazy man in the cave turned his head and looked at Firefly and Silver Wolf outside the cave:

"So it's you two, what an interesting coincidence."

"Please come in, I have grilled fish and a campfire here."

98. 【If you don't know how to write a plot, you don't have to!】

"Please come in, you two."

The lazy man in the cave said gently:

"I have grilled fish and a campfire here."

"No traveler in the cold wind would refuse warmth and good food, right?"

Listening to the words of the lazy man in the cave, Firefly and Silver Wolf outside the cave trembled slightly.

Especially Firefly, who felt the terror of the man in the cave, couldn't help but hesitate a bit.

"Don't lose face, Firefly."

Silver Wolf hid behind Firefly and said:

"We've both rolled through swords and guns, be spirited."

"Don't lose the face of the Stellaron Hunters!"

"Uh..." Firefly hesitated for a moment, took off Sam's helmet from her head, and nodded at Silver Wolf.

The two walked into the cave together.

"Excuse us." Firefly bowed gently to the lazy man politely.

Silver Wolf cast a curious look at him.

Then, Silver Wolf made the same judgment as Firefly.

This man, very terrifying... is an expert.

"We are all travelers on the road, so why talk about disturbing?"

"Please sit."

The lazy man pointed to the opposite side of the campfire, inviting the two to sit down.

Silver Wolf and Firefly looked at each other and sat opposite the campfire.

The lazy man picked up two grilled fish that were sizzling with oil and had charred skin, and handed them to the two.

Silver Wolf looked at the grilled fish in her hand, smelling the fragrance of fish oil, cumin, and chili powder on it, and couldn't help but swallow.

"The cold wave of Jarilo-VI started because of the Stellaron and arrived suddenly."

The lazy man said with a smile:

"The fish were frozen in ice in the blink of an eye, and have been kept fresh until now."

"Even adding a unique flavor."

Listening to the lazy man's words, Silver Wolf couldn't hold back anymore.

She picked up the grilled fish and took a bite.

The crispy fish skin and tender fish meat jumped between Silver Wolf's lips and teeth, and the fish bones buried inside were also grilled until crispy, shattering into a ball upon chewing, and were swallowed into Silver Wolf's belly along with the fish meat.

"Fragrant! Delicious!"

Silver Wolf widened her eyes and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to the lazy man:

"God-tier product! Top-tier chef!"

Looking at Silver Wolf's expression, Firefly hesitated a bit.

Her physical condition already made it difficult for her to eat properly.

Most of the time, she could only rely on nutrient solution to supplement nutrients.

"Uh... my partner is not in good health and can't eat your grilled fish."

Silver Wolf noticed Firefly's embarrassment.

"Don't mind it, she doesn't think you might have poisoned it or anything."

"Entropy Loss Syndrome, right."

Before Silver Wolf could finish speaking, the lazy man chuckled and looked at Firefly and said:

"I had almost forgotten."

Silver Wolf sensed a trace of nostalgia in the lazy man's eyes.

Silver Wolf blinked, and couldn't help but have a bit of doubt.

Just at this moment, the man stretched out his finger toward Firefly.

Firefly's body stiffened, and Silver Wolf hurriedly wanted to stop him.

"Don't be afraid."

The man's gentle yet unquestionable voice sounded.

Silver Wolf and Firefly suddenly felt their brains go blank, and their bodies stiffened in place.

The lazy man's fingertip flicked gently on Firefly's forehead.

A pale purple light flashed by.

"Eh?!" Firefly widened her eyes.

"Are you okay, Firefly!" Sensing that her body could move, Silver Wolf hurriedly stepped forward and held Firefly's hand.

"Entropy... entropy... Entropy Loss Syndrome is gone."

Firefly sensed her physical condition in a daze.

Although it was inexplicable, the Entropy Loss Syndrome that had entangled her body for many years

was actually gone just like that.

Firefly's body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"You... you..."
