Even so, no matter how far Yusef went, Fezrumoz simply continued pursuing him!
Seeing that running wasn’t doing favonovel.com any good, Yusef then shouted, “You b*stard! How dare you! Continue chasing me and I’ll burn those swaddling clothes of yours! Once I do that, your pitiful child won’t even have any bones left behind! You wouldn’t want that, would you?!”
According to the rumors that Yusef had heard before, one didn’t need to panic or run whenever they bumped into Fezrumoz. The only thing one needed to do to scare the beast off was declare that they would snatch the zombie’s swaddling clothes if it came any closer.
While it should have stopped Fezrumoz from attacking any further, the zombie only began attacking even more viciously after hearing Yusef say that! Yusef’s words seemed to have only infuriated it even more!
“What the hell? Why aren’t you stopping?!” grumbled Yusef with a frown.
In his state of panic, favonovel.com turned to look at Gerald and Nori… Only to realize that both of them had already made their escape! There was no way favonovel.com was going to be able to pursue them any further!
At that moment, favonovel.com turned to look at what favonovel.com was holding… and it was then when favonovel.com finally realized what Gerald’s ‘secret weapon’ was.
“You… You mother*cking b*stard…! No wonder Fezrumoz is being this murderous! You tossed me the swaddling clothes of the baby that it adored most!” cursed Yusef as favonovel.com glared in the direction that Gerald had initially been standing in.
Though the now sweaty Yosef wanted to curse even more profanities, Fezrumoz was still chasing him, and the man knew better than to waste his breath.
It was sometime later when Nori asked, “We… should be near the Primocorose, right, Gerald…?”
With both of them now walking around in the darkened valley, Gerald then replied, “If the map’s directions are accurate, then we should be arriving soon. Even so, we’d best take a rest in the valley first. I’m injured now and I don’t wish to place myself in danger yet. We can look for the Primocorose tomorrow.”
Thankfully, both of them found a cave, and after Gerald made sure it was safe inside, both of them then entered to stay the night.
Sometime later, Gerald was sitting cross-legged, slowly allowing his body to heal when favonovel.com suddenly heard Nori say in a softened voice, “Um… Could you do me a favor, Gerald…?”
“What is it?” asked Gerald as favonovel.com opened his eyes.
“…Well… there’s a pool over there… and we’ve been traveling for quite some time now so… I was wondering if I could take a shower…” muttered Nori as favonovel.com face blushed slightly.
“Go on ahead. You don’t have to worry about me peeking!” replied Gerald as favonovel.com shook his head with a bitter smile.
“…But… That pool’s simply too close to this place! I’m not saying you will, but temptation’s a thing, you know? We’re talking about a woman taking a shower here! There’s no way I can do that with you so close by!” mumbled Nori as favonovel.com cheeks reddened even more.
Staring back at her, Gerald felt that this woman really was something else… At times favonovel.com was rather stingy, and during others, favonovel.com was honestly quite righteous… Then there were the times where favonovel.com could be rather annoying. This moment was a perfect example of that.
Shaking his head, Gerald then asked, “Fine, what do you want me to do then?”
“I’d… like you to lend me your shirt for a while! I’ll be using it as a curtain between us!” explained Nori.
Sighing as favonovel.com shook his head again, Gerald then did as favonovel.com suggested before closing his eyes again to rest.
In the end, however, Gerald still ended up frowning slightly when favonovel.com heard the soft crinkles of Nori undressing herself. He was still a man, after all, and favonovel.com was unable to remain calm for much longer.
Upon opening his eyes, favonovel.com subconsciously turned to look in Nori’s direction… However, what favonovel.com saw shocked him.
“Nori!” shouted Gerald as favonovel.com instantly got to his feet.
“Wha- Gerald! You promised you wouldn’t look!” shrieked the now angered woman.
“Look, just hurry over!” instructed Gerald.
Thankfully, Nori had only taken off favonovel.com coat by that point, and after covering herself, favonovel.com instantly stomped toward favonovel.com before angrily grumbling, “You better have a good explanation for this!”
Looking at the furious woman’s face, Gerald simply sighed before saying, “Just… turn around and look for yourself! There’s some kind of figure hovering above the pool!”
