Taming The Villainesses novel Chapter 192

(EP-192.1) A Short Break #1

192 – A Short Break #1

The day after the trial.

I lay in bed with aches and pains all over my body.

So much so that I couldn’t even lift a finger, forcing me to rest for the entire day.

It was a warm afternoon with the summer sun streaming in through the window.

━Memmem-.

━Chichipp.

It was a good day. Listening to the cacophony of cicadas and various birds singing in a chorus, it’s a shame that I’m stuck in a room.

Still, I gained a lot from the duel.

You are the only survivor of a fallen family.

You must revive the family while avoiding those who want to destroy it.

Fortunately, you are motivated to rebuild your family.

Because Little Demon King went up a level.

It seems the notion that extreme situations like life-and-death struggles and duels would enhance one’s magic skills was not a lie.

Though my body was weary, the magic power in me remained remarkably stable.

Great.

But then my thighs throbbed.

“Eugh.”

“It’s just a little muscle soreness. Hey, stop whining.”

Elga jabbed my side.

Anyone who has experienced muscle soreness in their side knows that being poked in that spot with a finger was like getting stabbed.

“Hieek...!”

It hurt so much.

“It’s because you’re not training enough. You overused your untrained muscles in the fight, this is the result, am I wrong?”

Yeah, Elga was right.

However, this soft Half-Fairy’s body was inherently unsuitable for combat and fights.

By way of comparison, it was like driving a small compact car in an unlimited autobahn. Getting hurt is to be expected.

“.......”

Seuk.

When I glanced at Elga, who was pressing on my thigh, she said.

“Why are you looking at me like that? If you have something to say, say it.”

If I were to say what I really wanted to say here, she’ll just squeeze my thigh, and I don’t want such pain.

So, I decided to keep my mouth shut. Elga also didn’t question me further and just continued to press. _{freewebnoveℓ.com}

“Geueek-.”

It hurt but I refrained from complaining. I won’t whine at someone who’s massaging my sore muscles.

“Fortunately, you didn’t get seriously hurt. Do you understand? When you got slashed across the abdomen through the Mana Shield, I thought you were going to die. ”

“...what will you do for me if I bring you ice cream?”

She subtly bargained. I racked my brain trying to think of something I could do for her right now, ❀ Nоvеlігht ❀ (Don’t copy, read here) but there was nothing.

“Hmph, forget it. You’d rather have the sweet ice cream from the Draco twins than my massage, right?”

As I was lost in thought, Elga grumbled and opened the fridge. She then retrieved a luxurious ice cream container and popped the lid off.

Hwaaa-.

Yes, this is it. The bright and sweet aroma of the half-remaining ice cream made my body flutter.

“Is it really that good?”

Elga scooped up a spoon, which I expected to be mine. I even opened my mouth, but the spoon went straight into her own mouth.

“It’s not even that good. No, I’ll need another bite to be sure.”

“.......”

Puuk, puuk.

“What, there’s different flavors for each color?”

Elga spooned through the ice cream several times, rapidly depleting my half-supply of happiness—!

I felt like froth was about to come out of my mouth. She’s eating my ice cream at my face, while I lay there unable to move.

I couldn’t bear Elga’s profoundly fairyphobic and inhumane behavior any longer without giving her a piece of my mind.

Noticing my boiling frustration, Elga gingerly set down her spoon.

“...Why, what? Did you think I was eating it because I wanted to? Don’t you know there’s a fairy inside me too? I have a half-and-half fairy in my belly. They wanted to eat it.”

That’s true. Then there’s nothing I can do. Certainly, if the child in Elga’s womb has a fairy’s blood, it’s not so strange for her to enjoy the sweet treat.

“Here, I’ve left your share.”

“Oh.”

I accepted the ice cream box from Elga. I distinctly remember there being several flavors, but now there’s only mint chocolate left. How annoying.
