Chapter 76: Chapter 76: The Traces of Stigmata Valley

Along the way, Glenn was tacit and stayed behind Lafite like he was her shadow. He was not keeping quiet only trying to stay low-key. The other major reason was his infirmity after having gotten poisoned. And yet he was flipping through pages on water and radium elements. “Am I being a little bit too quiet with Lafite on my side?” Everyone in the team just let Glenn be in his solitude except for Robinson. He kept pestering him with petty talks, even mentioning the possibility of his marriage with Robin. The scene reminded himself of Violent Bear, Iron Axe and Iron Hammer - All garrulous guys. Maybe Robinson could make friends with them. Robin summoned her boar, and then she patted this bodyguard in the back, saying: “The aura he gives off is enough to scare off the predatory animals in this forest. Besides, my green-eyed monkey will be on watch. We all can have a good rest.” Having said that, Robin entered the newly-pitched tent she and Robinson shared, and within seconds, the sounds of Robinson yelping came out. He might have been under her bullying again. In Glenn tent, he was studying the water element under the light of the Inextinguishable Flame and was trying to inscribe the basic water element magical matrix in his mind using his mental strength. He looked serious and sedate. All of a sudden, Lafite pushed aside the tent flap and got in. She ignored Glenn and stripped off her clothes - all of them. Glenn eyed her, yet made no response. Lafite pulled out a vial of liquid vibrating with life wave, and attentively sprayed some on where her smooth and damaged skin met to water a growing tender shoot. After it was done, Lafite looked at Glenn whose eyes were fixed on her, and grunted: “Am I a log to you?” She said that in a sorrowful tone. A puffing sound followed. Glenn sniggered. “Lafite, my queen. You’re not a log. I am. Even I’m touched by your beauty, as numb as a log I am.” “Hmm.” Lafite shot a glance at Glenn, half smiled. “Forget it. You won’t have any interest in me with my face looking like this. Get out of the way and I’m going to bed.” Her voice was a mixture of nonchalance and yearning. Glenn walked to her and pecked her in the forehead, saying lightly: “You have a good sleep. I’ll join you soon.”
