Chapter 289 - 120. Interlude
In the following days, the environment in Klein Mountain was anything but quiet, mostly due to the training progress of the adorable Whale-man Species, which was much faster than Xiayat and Fisher had anticipated.
Xiayat had said something to Moli during training that day, but when Fisher later asked her about it, she always avoided eye contact, frantically suggesting she hadn’t said anything outrageous, and that it was all to help Moli master the combat training better.
That’s what she claimed, but whenever Fisher looked at her suspiciously, she would always find an excuse to run off to do something else, avoiding a direct answer.
Either she would be off to handle the evening meal or to wash her own clothes and hunting tools. If it weren’t for Moli’s condition seeming normal, Fisher would really suspect she was up to no good.
However, the training during this period did have its effects, much more effective than when Fisher trained Moli.
Since the day she created a huge water column in the river, she seemed to have grasped the knack for fighting; whether hunting or engaging in actual combat training with Fisher, she no longer fell into her previous cursed state, still going all-out like a humanoid steam engine.
But this also made Fisher curious—was Moli exceptionally strong, or were all Whale-man Species this impressive?
When Fisher asked Moli about it, she couldn’t provide a clear answer either.
