Chapter 43: Cold Sickness
"What did you put into his food?" Qwanisha glared at Griffin.
Kaiju was currently sleeping in the bed Lucy created. His face was indifferent but his breathing was clogged by mucus, obviously suffering from cold. Snow and Little Gorilla were lying beside him, the latter massaging his body while Snow continued to rub Kaiju’s cheeks, wanting to comfort him from pain. Qwanisha and others surrounded him, some perplexed while others were worried.
Griffin snorted at Qwanisha’s question. "If I really did put something harmful to Kaiju’s food, I might just have made a mistake, it should be on you."
"Y-You!" Qwanisha gritted her teeth, almost losing her sanity.
She took a deep breath and turned to Faith, asking, "Why are you not healing him?"
"His pet said so."
Little Gorilla uttered a gecker noise, explaining through their beast communication. Faith, for some reason, managed to grasp what he said and interpreted it to Qwanisha, "He said his master did not want to be healed."
"Why won’t you force it?"
Little Gorilla growled at Qwanisha. Faith sighed and said, "See? I would have done so, aunt Qwanisha. I don’t want to go against my student, after all."
"Aunt..." Qwanisha was on the brink of her sanity, but then, received a back hug by Max. Max said, "Don’t worry, Kaiju might be planning something."
"Say." Griffin garnered their attention. "Do you think this situation is similar?"
