East Meet West

Chapter 59: Revealed

59- Revealed

After few minutes I reached the pond through which the hidden cave can be entered.

First, I had a look around the surroundings and saw that there was no abnormality. Since, there was nothing wrong, I dived into the pond and swam back to the hidden cave.

As soon as my head came out of the water, I sensed something coming towards me with high speed. Realizing that I was in danger, I did not even look what it was and went back into the water.

With the little bit of visibility I had, I found that it was a stone thrown towards me. I moved away from my initial position so that the attacker will not be able to lock my position and take another shot towards me. As I was moving in the water and thinking who was the one who tried attacked. Armelias voice rang

Orochi is that you? I am sorry, I thought it was someone else.

Hearing that it was Armelia who attacked, normally I should have gotten angry but, I controlled my emotions because I need the complete Purple dome mushroom and for that I need to coax Armelia which means I will have to ignore things that could make situations worse.

I got out of the water and I swam to the shore and said,

Yeah, it's me and please stop attacking

Hearing this Armelia replied,

I am sorry it was a mistake from my side as I felt that it was someone else or the snakes who followed me.

I understand but next time take care that you dont accidently attack me...again. I told Armelia who was sitting on a big rock.

Hearing me, she hastily nodded her little head.

Currently, my clothes are torn in some places. Although, I dont look like a beggar but if I dont get a new pair of clothes soon then surely, I will look like one. Also, after coming out of the water, I was completely drenched and due to lack of clothes, I cannot change into a new set of clothes and being in wet clothes makes me feel a bit uncomfortable. So, instead of being a miser, I decided to buy a set of clothes for myself.

Luckily though, the prices of clothes are cheap on shop, so I got myself a dozen pair of clothes for only 1000 sikka. In this world, the people wear robes, tunics, shirts, lapel, trousers and other types of clothes; and there is no fixed dress code. Unlike, my previous world where certain country had their traditional dress code and people would follow the same.

Although, there is freedom of choice to wear any type of clothes but I think that wearing a T-shirt and jeans, people will look at me weirdly. But since, I am in the forest then it should be of no problem and for me the most important thing is comfort. And for me nothing is more comfortable than a t-shirt and jeans. But still as I am in the forest it would be better for me not to expose any part of the body.

As it was dark in the cave, I decided to change my clothes without any cover or worry that Armelia would see me naked. Quickly, I removed my wet clothes and wore a t-shirt and jeans, after that I turned my attention towards Armelia, who was sitting on a big rock with wet clothes and was looking in my direction.

I dont know if she saw me naked or not, and even if she saw me naked it's not like I would throw a tantrum or something.

But as I was thinking how to convince Armelia to give me the complete Purple dome mushroom, Armelia started the conversation

Hey, if you have got the Purple dome mushroom then I would advise you to use it as soon as possible or its potency might fade with the passing passage of time.

When I heard this, I was stunned but I did not show any reaction and asked Armelia

What do you mean? I dont understand why I should use the Purple dome mushroom? It was your idea to steal it not mine.

Hearing this Armelia replied with an angry tone

What do mean by it was your idea to steal it not mine? Do you think I dont know that you are poisoned?

When I heard this, I was completely stunned and my body shook. And immediately I regained my composure and asked Armelia with vigilance

How do you know that I am poisoned?

With an irregular tone Armelia replied,

Yesterday when I accidently punched you and you spat blood, I found that your blood was black-red in colour and when I observed it for a while, I clearly felt that something was wrong with you. And looking at your thin body, any normal human will think that there is something wrong with your body as there is hardly any muscle or fat visible.

When I heard Armelias explanation, I felt that it was reasonable.

Actually, due to Armelias punch when I spat blood from my mouth, I did not notice/ ignored the colour of blood as my anger took control of me; but when Armelia mentioned that my blood was black-red colour, then I remembered that my bloods colour was truly black-red instead of normal.

And as for my bodys condition, just like Armelia said, there was hardly any muscle or fat visible on my body.

Previously, although I did not have the body of a guy who goes to gym regularly (has abs, biceps and triceps) and maintains a proper diet, my body was still considered to be within fit range.

But currently my muscles have shrunk and even the fat & muscle near the ass and legs have shrunk so much that only bones are visible. Some people might even say that I look like a skeleton covered with human skin. Looks like the poison used by those bastard friends and Lily is very potent.
