"Hi, hi." Contrary to Reynolds's expectations, he initially thought that this warrior, who was even more barbaric than his barbarian classmates, would be a ruthless character who was as straightforward and decisive as he was. However, he did not expect that this warrior was an introverted and honest person who was not good at socializing. He was surprised that Reynolds took the initiative to strike up a conversation with him. Reynolds even stuttered when he spoke.
Reynolds reached out his hand and said, "My name is Reynolds. I'm from Year One Martial Arts Class Two. I admire your hard work. Can we be friends?"
The warrior replied, "Sure, sure!" He reached out his hand and shook Reynolds's hand. He smiled foolishly. His white teeth were set off by his dark skin, making him look very bright and sincere. After a few seconds, the warrior felt that he had been a little rude. Since the other party had already introduced himself, he had to return the favor. That was the only way to show respect to the other party. So he quickly apologized and added, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I almost forgot to introduce myself. My name is Linka, I'm from Year 1 Warrior Class 8."
Reynolds was impressed by Linka's sincerity. Although Linka was a bit dull, he was not scheming at all. Reynolds said, "Brother, you've been training hard!"
Linka grinned and said, "I can't help it. My parents are herders. They don't make much money. They spent all their savings to send me to Randolph Academy. If I slack off, I'll be letting them down."
"Oh, you're such a filial son." Reynolds praised, "By the way, are you done with today's training? Let's go for a meal together."
Linka hesitated, "Well …" It was still early, and there was still a lot of time before the training ended.
Reynolds didn't give him time to think, "Don't hesitate. You have to strike a balance between work and rest. It's not good to work too hard. It's not worth it if you break your body. Let's go, it's my treat! " Reynolds dragged Linka away. Reynolds's personality was like that. If he liked someone, he would immediately become a good brother.
When they passed by the dormitory, Reynolds said, "Brother Linka, wait for me downstairs. I'll ask my other friend if he has eaten yet. If he hasn't, let's go together. It'll be more lively with more people." Reynolds felt that his roommate was a little strange these few days. He had been acting strangely and wanted to go to the toilet from time to time. His spirit and appetite were not good, and he wondered if he was sick. This was also the reason why Reynolds had returned early. He had always cared for his brothers like they were his own limbs.
Irene was lying on the bed listlessly. She had been very irritated these past few days because her period had come. This was perhaps the most troublesome physiological phenomenon for a woman. She would always feel depressed for no reason. This was also one of the reasons why the Recovery Pill did not work. Naturally lost blood could not be replenished with the Recovery Pill.
That fellow had gone out to practice again. He probably wouldn't be back so soon. Eirinn missed him a little now. Of course, it wasn't like a day apart between lovers that felt like three years. Instead, it was because she would feel much better if he could tell her a few jokes and make her laugh.
Just as Eirinn was thinking about how great it would be if she could teleport him back, the sound of a key turning came from outside the door. Eirinn was shocked. No way, how strong was her telekinesis? He was actually able to summon him back immediately.
Eirinn got up and opened the door. She almost bumped into Reynolds who was about to knock on the door.
"Oops!" Eirinn patted her chest and said exaggeratedly, "Reynolds, what are you doing? You scared me to death! "
Reynolds laughed, "I see that you're not in good spirits these past few nights. You're also late for dinner. I don't think you've eaten yet, right? Why don't we go to the cafeteria together? Humans are made of iron and rice is made of steel. It's impossible not to eat. "
Eirinn was about to speak when Reynolds' nose twitched. "Why is there a fishy smell?" He caught a glimpse of a damp red cotton cloth in the trash bin in Eirinn's room. "Eirinn, w-what's wrong with you?"
In fact, Eirinn had just changed out of the cloth for her period. There were no feminine products in this world like Sophie or Bosom Bao. Women could only use cotton cloth with high absorbency. That was why Reynolds didn't think of anything else.
Eirinn's pale face flushed red. She didn't know how to explain herself. She was too careless just now. She should have put it away better.
"Did you accidentally hurt yourself? Let me take a look. I have a secret medicine here that can heal your wound quickly. "
Eirinn's face was almost completely red. How could she let a man look at her most private place? She struggled to come up with a suitable excuse, "It's fine, Reynolds. I was careless these past few days when I was trying to figure out how to cultivate. I suffered some internal injuries and spat out a few mouthfuls of blood. That's why I haven't been in good spirits these past few days. But I'm pretty much healed now." Cultivation had its own dangers. Just like Qigong, there was the risk of qi deviation. And if one was injured by their own spiritual energy, they couldn't be healed with Recovery Pills.
Reynolds didn't think much of it. He nodded to show his concern, "Eirinn, we've only taught you the basics of cultivation. Don't mess around. You might be in danger."
Eirinn breathed a sigh of relief. Reynolds put his hand on her shoulder and said, "Alright, let's go eat. It's my treat today. Let's go to the academy's high-class restaurant to replenish your energy."
Eirinn had no choice but to be 'hooked' by Reynolds. Even though she forbade him from touching her, he still liked to put his hand on her shoulder. He said it was more like a buddy. Eirinn was helpless. She couldn't change him, so she could only change herself and slowly get used to it. She was still annoyed. She said as she walked, "Hey, Reynolds, tell me a joke."
This was the first time Eirinn had taken the initiative to make such a request. Reynolds was startled, then he smiled, "Alright. Hmm, let me think."
A few seconds later, he slapped his head and said, "Alright, I'll tell you something related to 'blood'."
Eirinn thought. Most things related to blood involve violence. What's so funny about that?
"In the past, during the war on the continent, women were always on the second line of battle. But there was a female warrior who didn't lose out to men. She wanted to rush to the front line like the men to participate in the defense, but she couldn't because of the country's restrictions. In the end, she came up with a good idea. She disguised herself as a man and sneaked into the men's camp. Finally, she got a chance to show off. Brave and good at fighting, she made a lot of contributions. In the end, she was even promoted to general. However … "
