Chapter 219: One hundred and sixty-one: Recuperation (2)
A week quickly passed by, and after seven days of vegetarian diet, Malin’s listlessness was visibly apparent, even to others, although no one could figure out the reason, so Malin sought out Shelton Brice.
"How long has it been since you last ate meat?" The giant gentleman had just ridden out of his church, and this was his first question.
"A week." Malin was listless, his gaze drifting, looking for a comfortable place to lie down, as if possessed by the spirit of Ge You.
"Your bloodline has awakened, hasn’t it?" Shelton Brice’s second sentence was straightforward.
Malin nodded: "You mean, it’s because I haven’t eaten meat?"
"That’s right, the most important aspect of a giant’s bloodline is to consume meat, it’s best to have it every day, but even if life is tough, you can’t go a week without it." Shelton said, giving Malin a once-over: "I’ve heard you just rescued your sister from the Dream Rift and you’ve been recovering this week on a vegetarian diet, right?"
"Yes, that’s right." Malin nodded: "I never considered that." He had thought he was so debilitated because he had been gravely injured in the rift, which was why he had become such a wreck over the week.
"The doctor taking care of you is an elf, isn’t she?" Shelton was already laughing.
Malin was full of question marks: "Yes, but, what does that have to do with the doctor being an elf?"
"Elves and giants had a blood feud in ancient times, and although the hatred has dissipated now, starving a little giant for a week is still one of the elves’ favorite pranks. Don’t worry, eat meat for three days and you’ll recover. Then you can go beat her up. As long as you use this reason, the other elves won’t stop you, but just don’t kill anyone. We can go hungry for a week without harm to our bodies." Shelton finished speaking with a laugh, signaling the guards to bring a small horse over, and had Malin mount the horse: "Luckily, I’m free right now. I’ll take you to a newly opened restaurant in the North City District, where the best werewolf chef works. I’m telling you, that meat they roast will capture your gaze."
