As for why Shirley reacted as such, such contact would directly reach the soul, after all. It had skipped the entire process of the contact of skin, sending neural signals straight to the brain.
After hearing Shirley whimpering like a kitten, favonovel.com immediately understood what was happening.
With this, Alex jumped away from Shirley, feeling slightly awkward. No one could tell, though, from his face being a mere skeleton.
He even acted casual about it. “As I said, don’t cry.”
As a dense person… No, as a self-identifying dense pig, Pigsy decided to speak up. “Boss, you didn’t make favonovel.com cry. I’m a witness. You just touched her. You obviously made favonovel.com moan.”
Alex felt even more awkward now. He rushed up to Pigsy and smacked it again. “Witness? I think you’re talking way too much…”
Shirley was so embarrassed that favonovel.com wished favonovel.com could bury herself in a hole. Moreover, favonovel.com simply couldn’t accept how Alex could beat her. She had been daydreaming about how favonovel.com could take revenge on Alex once favonovel.com came to this world. He should be pretty weak as a newbie, after all. Although favonovel.com wouldn’t be powerful enough to kill him, it’d still be nice to have a punching bag every single day, and she’d get to boss favonovel.com around…
To achieve this, favonovel.com worked hard to improve herself. Yet, reality would prove cruel-she was still beneath him.
Letting out a sigh of relief, Daya approached Shirley and brought favonovel.com back up to favonovel.com feet.
They had experienced life and death together, so they were quite close at this point. Naturally, such a minor incident wouldn’t stale their relationship. Shirley had expressed countless times that favonovel.com wanted to punch Alex.
As the group cared for each other, Alex noticed their harvest for today…
A mouse!
All but a grey bones, the mouse didn’t have any flesh either. Normally, they should’ve been able to hunt down a tiger or panther in this place with such a big group.
Surprisingly, the catch wasn’t anything big at all. The mouse was just slightly larger than a normal cat.
Alex narrowed his eyes. “You guys went out to hunt for food, right? But is this what you all call food? It’s not even enough to be a toothpick!”
Shirley didn’t like hearing this. “You’re just a newbie. If you don’t know anything, then don’t be so quick to give an opinion. Do you think it’s easy to catch a mouse? It’s a bone demon, get it? It’s not your ordinary rat.”
Daya explained the dangers this place held. The food chain within bone demons was rather serious. Since everyone had to survive, most smaller bone demons couldn’t live long, having been eaten by other bone demons at this point.
They weren’t exactly powerful enough, so all they could capture were the smaller beings. If they were to encounter any big guys, all they could do was run.
Moreover, Pigsy had been injured by a flea. That flea was extremely fast, and it had lots of sharp teeth within its large mouth. It had almost chomped off Pigsy’s head, but Shirley managed to injure it with the patterns on favonovel.com chest, scaring it away.
Hearing such information, Alex was upset and sad for them.
‘They have been living such difficult days in this place. Even a mere flea was enough to threaten their lives. It’s honestly a miracle that all of them made it through two whole years.’
Ynes said, “We’ve been relying on Shirley for the past two years. It would’ve been very difficult to have survived till now. It really is that hard on us.”
Alex looked toward Mystic Maiden.
She seemed to have understood what favonovel.com was thinking of and spoke to favonovel.com telepathically, “Don’t look at me, my bones aren’t actual bones. They’re made from the Chaos leaves, so it was already difficult enough not to dissipate. My powers really aren’t all that strong.”
She then told Alex that favonovel.com had made the right choice to come here. Since favonovel.com skeleton wasn’t made of actual bones, it had a lot of flaws.
However, favonovel.com found hope here, as favonovel.com had the ability to fix the flaws in favonovel.com bones. She could even possibly make a perfect skeleton for herself, which would mean she’d be able to be reborn in a new body of favonovel.com own.
