Chapter 104: Worried
Chapter Hundred-Four – Worried
(Snow Top Mountain)
Slime stirred on the bed, before slowly rising, with both hands on his side, like a zombie.
"Scary." Asher said flatly, while eating the chips on his plate, with crossed legs.
Slime’s eyes shifted to him, then they expanded. "Your highness!" He tried to leave the bed to hug the King but his body’s weakness sent him to the ground. "Ah, thank goddess you’re safe."
"Stupid." Asher chuckled. "You didn’t even help me and I had to save you." he uncrossed his legs and got up. "Since you’re better. Leave my room."
Slime looked from the ground, checking his surrounding. He could tell from the sky outside that it was a new day from the day the rogue attacked.
He hoped days hadn’t passed. His eyes went around the room. The gold and white drapes on the window. The shimmering furniture. Swords of unique designs hung on the wall.
Did the King keep him in his room all through? Did he worry him? He sniffed. "Your highness, you’re really kind."
"Don’t call me that." Asher clicked his tongue.
Slime forced himself to roll to his back. The King sounded annoyed. Could it be due to low sleep? "You should sleep too, your highness. You need it more than I do."
Asher sighed. His body didn’t feel tired yet. "I should head to the lab now. Since you’re okay, follow me."
