“I do know!” Rebecca didn’t even flip her head and waved her hand.
Taking a look at her retreating again, Morty’s coronary heart was full of fear. He didn’t know what would occur on this experiment.
Sighing, Morty went to the cellar and took some extra bones.
At current, the corn had mainly grown. After the peas have been produced, they may go to city. Talking of which, after transmigrating to this world for therefore lengthy, he had by no means been to a spot apart from the manor. Even the situation of the small city was advised to him by the maid.

“Rebecca, are you alright?”
There was no response from the room.

The room was already in ruins. There was gravel beneath his ft, and he would possibly journey if he was not cautious.
Morty’s fingers have been on the bottom as he groped ahead, looking for Rebecca’s determine. Nevertheless, as time handed, he nonetheless couldn’t discover any hint of Rebecca. The thick smoke within the air was already making him dizzy. If this continued, he would most likely be in peril.
Gritting his enamel, Morty shouted into the thick smoke, “Rebecca-”
There was nonetheless no response. A hint of unhappiness appeared in Morty’s coronary heart. It appeared that this woman was certainly…
*Cough, cough, cough* “Who’s it? Why are you shouting like a ghost? I’m not lifeless…” Morty’s eyes lit up. “Rebecca, the place are you?”
*Cough, cough* “I’m choking to demise.” From the nook of the room, a determine lined in mud and in a sorry state scuttled out.
The determine was naturally Rebecca. When she seen Morty standing in entrance of her, she was surprised on the spot. She lined her head and shouted, “Don’t, don’t hit me. I do know I used to be improper.
Taking a look at Rebecca, whose face was lined in smoke and dirt, Morty was each comfortable and offended. He didn’t have the time in charge her and grabbed her hand and ran out. “Let’s exit first. Let’s speak exterior.” Simply as the 2 of them rushed out of the thick smoke, your complete room collapsed. Fortuitously, this room was a separate constructing, so it didn’t have a lot of an influence on your complete manor. Thick smoke billowed as Morty seemed on the catastrophic scene in entrance of him, speechless for a very long time.
Rebecca checked out him fastidiously and apologized in a low voice, “S-Sorry…”
She had needed to run away, however for some purpose, she didn’t wish to run anymore when she considered how anxious Morty was when he pulled her out.
Morty got here again to his senses and checked out Rebecca, whose head was virtually hanging to her chest and her fingers was nervously tugging on the nook of her garments. The corners of her mouth twitched barely. To be sincere, he needed to present this woman a superb beating, however for some purpose, he simply couldn’t do it.
In the long run, Morty sighed and pinched Rebecca’s cheek. He mentioned fiercely, “Tomorrow, include me to the forest to chop wooden and restore the home. In any other case, you’re lifeless!” Rebecca checked out him blankly, as if she had forgotten the ache on her cheek.

The 4 of them labored till nightfall earlier than cleansing up the mess. The important thing was that Rebecca had finished some type of experiment, and the ruins have been full of white mud. With only a slight motion, it floated in every single place. Not solely did it odor unhealthy, however it was additionally very choking. This additionally induced the progress to be delayed fairly a bit.
“Phew! How tiring.” Morty moved his shoulders.
At this second, Rebecca came visiting and wiped the sweat off her face. She requested fastidiously, “The place do I sleep tonight?”
“You’ll sleep in Leona’s room.” Morty waved his hand in annoyance. Though there have been different rooms within the manor, he didn’t need this woman to proceed to damage each one in every of them. “Oh.” Rebecca nodded obediently. Then, as if she had considered one thing, she requested fastidiously, “Can I ask for 2 extra bones for experiments…”
“No!” With out ready for her to complete, Morty roared, scaring Rebecca a lot that she hugged her head and begged for mercy. “I don’t need it, I don’t need it…”
Morty was nonetheless anxious, so he gave her a stern warning and even confiscated all of the surviving gear in her room. Solely then did he really feel a little bit relieved.
