Chapter 45 The Angel's Feeding
Chapter 45 The Angel's Feeding
On Saturday, Xia Sheng woke up feeling refreshed and invigorated.
He genuinely felt that he had become stronger.
Before leaving that place yesterday, Xia Sheng added some attribute points to speed.
Speed refers not only to his movement speed and agility, but also to his reaction speed.
With this special attribute, there's no need to increase strength for now; it's definitely enough to deal with slimes.
However, the speed still needs to be improved.
Last night, the slime's attack range increased to two meters. If he hadn't been on guard, he probably would have lost most of his life.
Reaction time is very important.
Furthermore, the slime's attack range has increased, and its attack speed may also increase, so we must prepare in advance.
Improving his speed attribute is very important.
He still didn't understand the improvement in special attributes, but it wasn't a bad thing, so he didn't care.
After getting up and washing up, Xia Sheng went out to prepare for his morning run.
Xia Sheng wasn't sure whether their souls went to that place or their bodies went with them.
But in any case, physical strength is useful there.
As Natsuo passed by Shiina Mahiru's house, the door was unexpectedly open.
Shiina Mahiru emerged, just like she had last night.
"Good morning, Natsuki."
"Good morning..." Natsuo blinked and looked at Shiina Mahiru.
He sensed that she seemed to have changed a bit.
"Are you going for a morning run? Want to come along?" Shiina Mahiru asked, a faint smile on her cute face.
"good......"
Natsumi's feeling intensified; Shiina Mahiru seemed to be in a very good mood, and he could clearly sense her radiant spirit, as bright as the morning sun.
She used to have something on her mind.
What good thing happened?
Natsumi didn't want to ask, and Shiina Mahiru didn't offer any information either.
The two went downstairs together and arrived at the park.
The park is filled with the natural scent of trees, making it refreshing and pleasant.
Waking up early has its benefits.
After warming up together, the two jogged side by side around the lake without exchanging a single word.
After more than half an hour, beads of sweat appeared on their foreheads, and their breathing became heavier.
"That's about it... Whew—" Shiina Mahiru stopped her slow pace and started walking, slightly out of breath.
Xia Sheng also stopped and walked alongside her, his breathing steady.
After walking around for most of the way and feeling much better, the two left together and went back to the apartment.
Speechless all the way.
Upon entering the elevator, Shiina Mahiru pressed the floor button, and Natsuo stood beside her, frowning.
He suddenly felt his stomach churning, the churning becoming stronger and stronger.
The feeling of hunger also gradually intensifies.
He was so hungry, extremely hungry. He had never felt so hungry before, as if he could eat a whole cow.
Glug glug~
As soon as the elevator stopped, his stomach growled loudly, drowning out the warning sound.
Shiina Mahiru naturally heard this, stepped out of the elevator, and turned her head to look at him.
"Cough cough, I'm a little hungry." Xia Sheng followed them out of the elevator, awkwardly clutching his stomach.
"Want to eat together?" Shiina Mahiru asked suddenly, looking at him.
"Huh?" Xia Sheng was taken aback.
What does she mean?
"May I?"
"And do a little extra work while you're at it."
"Then I'll leave it to you!" Xia Sheng said excitedly.
"I knew you'd do this." Shiina Mahiru laughed.
"Ahem... If possible, could you make a little more? I feel strangely hungry," Xia Sheng confessed.
"You're unusually hungry?"
"Yes, I'm very hungry. I feel like I can eat anything."
"Are you alright?" Shiina Mahiru asked.
"no."
"I understand, please wait a moment."
"it is good."
When Xia Sheng got home, he wanted to find something to eat, but he couldn't find anything.
The refrigerator was completely empty; he hadn't prepared anything.
I'm so hungry, I'm tempted to eat the fridge.
Fortunately, he still retained his rationality.
But this is definitely not normal.
He has health problems.
Feeling hungry means you lack energy, that you've overexerted yourself, and that you need to replenish it.
He had only gone for a morning run, so it's impossible for him to have consumed that much energy. This had never happened before.
His body can only need to replenish energy due to other circumstances.
Xia Sheng pondered his physical condition and could only think of enhancing his attributes.
What are the reasons for this special addition?
What caused the increase in speed?
Or is it possible that both are true?
This situation did not occur when the power increased previously.
Insufficient information to confirm.
Xia Sheng was too exhausted to think anymore; he was starving and had no strength left in his body.
He lay limp on the sofa, not wanting to move at all, only able to feel his stomach churning.
Thankfully, Shiina Mahiru arrived just in time.
Xia Sheng didn't close the door; she went straight into the room.
"How are you? Come and eat something. I made you some rice balls to tide you over."
"..." Xia Sheng tried to open his mouth, but couldn't say a word.
Shiina Mahiru realized something was wrong with him, so she put the plate on the coffee table, picked up a rice ball, and held it to his mouth.
Xia Sheng took a bite and swallowed it without chewing twice.
This replenishment gave his body a sudden burst of energy, and he had a bit of strength to take a big bite of the rice ball in Shiina Mahiru's hand, chewing and swallowing it.
He quickly finished the rice ball, which was about the size of a fist.
"Eat slowly, be careful not to choke," Shiina Mahiru reminded him, and then handed him another one to his mouth.
Xia Sheng took a big, strong bite, then took the rice ball and began to eat it heartily.
He finished the rice ball in three bites, his cheeks bulging.
"Can you eat by yourself now? I'm making something for you over there, I'll go get it." Shiina Mahiru saw Natsuo nod in response and quickly went back.
Xia Sheng's behavior was indeed abnormal; she could clearly tell that he wasn't just pretending to tease her.
He needs her help.
The two have been companions through thick and thin, so it's impossible for Shiina Mahiru not to take care of him.
Not to mention his simple and clear concern for her safety last night.
Xia Sheng sat up, holding a rice ball in each hand, and began to wolf it down with large bites.
He didn't want to talk, he just wanted to eat.
Now, with each bite he swallows, his hunger is relieved, and a sense of happiness arises spontaneously.
Sometimes happiness is indeed very simple satisfaction.
Natsuo quickly finished the rice balls prepared by Shiina Mahiru. Although he was still hungry, he felt much better and breathed a sigh of relief, leaning back on the sofa.
Just now, he almost thought he was going to starve to death.
Thankfully, there are angels around.
"How are you?" At that moment, Shiina Mahiru came over again with some things.
It's a plate of fried chicken nuggets, golden in color and with a wonderful aroma.
Xia Sheng's mouth watered at the sight, and he couldn't help but swallow.
"I feel much better. Thank goodness you're here, or I might have starved to death."
"I told you not to prepare some food at home. Hurry up and eat these fried chicken nuggets. They're high in calories and can help you replenish your energy."
"good!"
Xia Sheng couldn't wait to pick up his chopsticks, grab a piece, and put it in his mouth.
Click~
A crisp sound rang out, and Xia Sheng's eyes widened.
The fried chicken nuggets were just the right temperature, not too hot, and incredibly delicious. At that moment, he felt it was the best food he had ever eaten.
He ate heartily, one bite after another, unable to stop.
"Slow down, don't choke, and don't forget to drink some water," Shiina Mahiru reminded her from the side.
"Mmm! This is so delicious! It's the best fried chicken I've ever had!"
"It's not that exaggerated, you're just hungry."
Shiina Mahiru watched Natsuo wolf down his food without any regard for his image, her face showing no disgust. Instead, her gaze softened and she smiled slightly.
