Cambrona was silent for a long time as he faced his wife who had suddenly woken up after more than a decade of being in a coma.
"How are you?"
As soon as he said this, he wanted to slap himself in the face.
What the hell! His wife had been in a coma for more than a decade, how good could she be? These words were simply unreliable to the extreme!
However, Jane's reply was also unreliable. Her eyes were a little dazed and did not look at Cambrona. Instead, they were looking at some unknown place.
"I'm dead," she said.
Ah?
Cambrona's current expression would definitely be a huge "awkward" word if he were to use the internet terminology on Earth.
What do you mean by "I'm dead"? You're only in a coma, not dead.
Also … now that you're awake, why do you feel like you're dead?
(Tu Ya 'an, this guy is too unreliable! Did Jane's brain get damaged by him?
He had a very unkind thought in his mind, but he did not know that he had actually guessed it correctly this time.
Tua An and his sister went around a few rooms and activated a preset magic circle to block off all sounds. Tessa smiled proudly.
"Brother, I did well, right?" She let go of Tu Ya An's collar and giggled, "If I didn't save you in time, I'm afraid you wouldn't have been able to get away so easily!"
"Yes! It's all thanks to you this time! " Tua An stood up and patted the dust off his body. There was no pain on his face. Instead, there was a hint of lingering fear.
"I was really scared just now! That person actually woke up … He should be sleeping for at least another five or six years … "
"Anything that happens when it involves a God is not surprising. We're just mortals after all, so let's not think about such high-end matters. "
Tua An was silent for a while before nodding. "You're right. This was actually the great teacher borrowing my hand to fight against the Shadow Assassin. No matter who wins or loses, no matter what happens, it has nothing to do with me. I just need to pretend that I don't know anything and send them away later. Then, I will have completed the great teacher's oracle. "
Tessa thought for a while and frowned. "But … did you really complete His Majesty's mission?"
"How would I know?" Tua 'an smiled bitterly. "Do you think that I would have the guts to stay there and ask' Your Majesty, Shadow Assassin, how are you feeling '?"
"No! That's courting death! "
"That's right, they're courting death …" Tu Ya 'an sighed deeply and found a chair to sit on. He took out a bottle of fruit juice mixed with essential oil from his Space Bag and took a big gulp.
The juice mixed with ice cubes went down his throat. The slight stimulation of the essential oil mixed with the cold stimulation made his body shiver uncontrollably. His spirit was suddenly refreshed.
"In any case, this oracle that has tormented me for more than a decade has finally come to an end!"
"Yeah, what happens next has nothing to do with us." Tessa smiled. "Brother, what do you plan to do next?"
"No matter what I need to do, I need to make money first." Tu Ya 'an said, "I've spent too much over the past ten years, I don't even have enough money to buy you new clothes. In the next ten years or so, I plan to focus on making money first. No matter what, I have to save a large sum of money before I can talk about doing other things. "
Hearing this, Tessa's face turned a little red.
She died young and relied on her brother's magic to return to life, extending her life in the state of the living dead. However, magic was not omnipotent. Even though Tu Ya 'an had paid a huge price, she could not be said to be a complete person. She could no longer grow and was forever frozen at the age of thirteen. She had lost her sense of taste, smell, and touch. She could not feel cold or heat, nor could she smell the fragrance of flowers. Any delicacy tasted no different to mud. She also needed to constantly consume her life force. Every day, she would consume about a month's worth of life force of a normal person. She had no choice but to rely on her Legendary equipment to steal life from powerful magical beasts in order to survive …
Because of all these reasons, her remaining entertainment was extremely limited. As a half-dead person who hovered between life and death, she did not dare to show her face in public. Every day, other than reading in her room, she would only change into beautiful clothes and dress herself up nicely. This was one of the few ways she could feel that she was still alive, that she was still a living person, and not a monster in a human shell.
Of course, Tu Ya 'an fully supported his sister's hobbies. To him, his sister was the motivation for his improvement, the foundation of his survival, and the only way for him to prove that he was still a living person with flesh and blood, and not a machine controlled by magic power. In the words of Earth, this guy was a sis-con, and it was the most severe kind. There was no cure for his sis-con in its late stages.
In the past ten years or so, in order to complete the oracle of the God of Spellcasters, Ymir Lamperus, he had spent a lot of money to purchase all kinds of materials needed for magic experiments. Because of His Majesty's authorization, he could buy all kinds of materials at cost price, and some of them were priceless, and he could even ask high-level or even legendary wizards for free. However, just buying those common materials had already used up a shocking amount of money, so much so that he once went to the Highest Tower to complain to His Majesty Lamperus about being poor.
If the God of Spellcasters was a rich woman like the Goddess of Wealth, she would definitely reward him with a large sum of money without hesitation. However, even though Ymir Lamperus had become a god, he was not rich, and more importantly, as a typical wizard, he had a very weak concept of money. Therefore, Tu Ya 'an received the reward of increasing his magic power, but did not receive a single copper coin.
Tu Ya 'an did not know whether to laugh or cry at this incongruous reward, so he had to find a way to raise money himself. If Jane had not suddenly woken up, perhaps in another one or two years, he would have to borrow money from his friends.
Fortunately, Jane had woken up, and his mission had come to an end. Next, as long as he worked hard to earn money, he would soon be able to return to his peaceful and happy life.
Thinking of this, he could not help but laugh out loud.
On the other side, Cambrona was also laughing, but it was a bitter laugh.
His wife had woken up after being in a coma for more than ten years, but it seemed that there was something wrong with her brain.
Jane did not respond to his call. She only stared blankly into the distance, as if something was bothering her, and she could not even spare a glance at her husband who was right beside her.
He tried to strike up a conversation with his wife, talking about the past, the future, the good times they had spent together, his experiences over the years, and his hopes for the future of the family … But Jane's expression remained the same. She was not moved at all.
The only thing she said was the first sentence, "I'm dead."
After a while, Cambrona could not take it anymore, and he took off his coat for his wife to wear, and then brought her to look for Tu Ya 'an in the Magic Tower.
Tu Ya 'an was not there, and Tessa said that he had gone out to do something.
Cambrona had no choice but to temporarily entrust his wife to Tessa, and he ran out to prepare suitable clothes for his wife.
After he left, Tessa stared at Jane, not saying a word.
At this moment, Jane was only wearing Cambrona's coat. The thin gown could not conceal her impressive figure, especially a certain part that symbolized the great reproductive power of women. It was so majestic that any normal man could not help but stare at it a few more times. Compared to Tessa, who was a little girl whose physical age was forever frozen at thirteen years old, it was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Tessa was furious, but she did not dare to vent her anger on this extremely dangerous person, so she could only vent her anger on a piece of ribbon, and she tore it, almost tearing it into pieces.
Jane did not speak, and she did not want to speak to her, so the room fell into an inexplicable silence.
This silence lasted for a long time, until Cambrona returned.
He brought back a lot of clothes, mostly in the style that Jane liked before she fainted — sexy, feminine, and full of charm.
So Tessa was even more unhappy.
When Cambrona took his wife to his room to change clothes, and they didn't come out until a long time later with a suspicious blush on their faces, she was even more tempted to tear the shameless couple into pieces with her sharp claws!
Obviously, that was impossible. If they really fought, she would not take Cambrona, a powerful knight, seriously at all. But Jane … As long as this suspicious woman had even a thousandth of her true strength, she could kill her in an instant. She did not even need to sweat.
So of course, she did not dare to make a move, and could only sulk and let the servants in the magic tower arrange for Cambrona and his wife.
Of course, she did not forget to ask when they planned to leave.
"Leave? I don't plan to leave for the time being, "Cambrona said." Although Jane has woken up, her condition is very problematic. I want to wait for Tu Ya 'an to come back, and ask him to do a detailed examination for Jane, and then carry out follow-up treatment — in short, she has to be cured. "
(It'll be a miracle if I can cure it! If my brother had such great skills, would I still be a half-dead?
Tessa complained in her heart, but did not dare to show it on her face. She coldly asked Cambrona if he wanted to change rooms? Or arrange a guest room for Jane?
Previously, he stayed in a single room, now that there were two people, of course it should be changed to a double room.
Although … this required a temporary modification of the living area in the magic tower. But for Tessa, who could command the golem construction team, it was not a problem at all.
"Of course, a double room!" Cambrona gave a thumbs up to the girl who was actually much older than him. "There must be a big bed in the room! And a big bathtub! "
Saying this, he could not help but look at his wife again, licked his lips, and smiled until his eyes were squinted.
(Pervert!)
Tessa was so angry that she could not wait to bite this bastard's neck.
She suddenly turned around, said "Got it" stiffly, and left directly — if she stayed any longer, she was afraid that she would really not be able to control herself.
But she still completed Cambrona's request well, and that night, the couple moved into the new room.
As for why Cambrona had dark circles under his eyes the next morning and was walking feebly, that was an entirely different matter …
