Giant Leaf Woods / Sites of Memorial :
Dusk /
Ars, Latifa, and Elisa return to the Sites of Memorial.
White Wood and Randi's group are resting. Not far from the campsite, there were lots of logs from the harvest that day.
Latifa and Elisa returned to White Wood's side.
Ars got off the wagon, looked over at Jeff's house, annoyed, because the door is closed.
"Four of you." Ars called Randi's men. "There is a tent in the cart, set it up."
"What?! Why do we have to obey your orders?!"
They obeyed Ars' orders when Ars approached them.
"How is the work progress?" Ars asked Randi.
"Going well. White Wood is full of strong dudes. Surprisingly, they are all Gold Hunters. "
Naturally, because they all Hunters who should be operating on the 2nd Floor.
Ars calls them up to the 1st Floor for promising a 50:50 split.
[Wooden Blocks = 5890 ABC]
"Tch!"
Ars got annoyed at having to split half of the profits for White Wood's services.
Most likely there was still half of Father Tree's body that had not transported. So the total price of all logs that will be around 12k ABC. That does not include Tap Root, and the Main Block of the Father Tree.
"Your tent's finished, jerk!"
Four friends have finished setting up a tent for Ars.
Ars got up, walked to the tent. Four of Randi's men went out of the way, afraid that Ars would beat them up.
Ars entered the tent peacefully. The tent is a large tent measuring 5x5 meters. A special tent for himself.
Ars took out a chair, table and bed. Luminous Stone - a luminous stone took out too to illuminate the room.
Ars took off his shirt and changed his pants. In a room alone, he goes shirtless.
It was a really tiring day. He got beat up by two Legend Hunters mercilessly. Resentment made his chest hot. The lessons he had to receive also almost made his head overheating.
Ars closed his eyes unconsciously, then slept sitting on a chair.
"Ars!"
Elisa stood in front of Ars' tent with a tray containing a bowl of soup and a bag of drinking water.
The girl had already called out the cold man's name several times. But the cold man never came out.
"Is he asleep?"
Then there's no point in Elisa calling him.
Elisa dared to go inside. Sure enough, the cold man was asleep, but in a quite strange, he fell asleep sitting on a chair.
Elisa silently placed the tray on the table. For a glimpse, she got attracted to an extremely rare sight, where the cold man looked so charming while he is silent.
That charm made Elisa look at his face for quite a long time. Until unconsciously, the man she was staring at opened his eyes.
"What are you doing?"
Elisa jumped like a startled cat.
"I - I just put your food!"
On the table, there is a tray with soup as the menu.
Elisa's business finished then, "I'll go!"
"Wait!"
Elisa froze. If Ars said wait, he must have something important to say.
"After this, come back here."
The order made Elisa wry face. But she couldn't argue.
"OK."
Elisa escaped by running to White Wood's tent.
Ars filled his stomach peacefully while waiting for Elisa's return.

Giant Leaf Woods / Sites of Memorial :
Evening /
"Are you sure you will be fine alone, Elisa?" asked Latifa, worried.
"Don't worry, I'll be fine, maybe."
Elisa tried to think positively. However, considering that she was going to a guy's tent, she had doubts about her safety.
Latifa tried to encourage. "No matter what, just shout out when you feel like you're in danger. In a moment, I will burn him to ashes. "
"Thank you, Miss Latifa. But that's exaggerating. "
Even though she was afraid, Elisa had to steel herself. After all, the man she was going to go to is the man who saved her once.
Elisa walked to her destination with great courage. When he arrived, he summoned the tent inhabitants, but his courage waned.
"I - I'm here."
What would happen if Ars told him to do something indecent?
Ars is the man who holds the power of the entire party, including White Wood. It is only natural that he behaves like a ruler who desires physical satisfaction.
"Come in."
Elisa walked into the tent with great concern.
Inside, she found the sight of a man shirtless, "he naked, wait, no, just half naked. But still?!".
There was only one meaning in the man's actions.
Elisa's face turned red at once. Her head steaming, thinking about what would happen to her later.
"Sit."
Ars told her to sit down. Elisa sat down.
"Take care of my wound."
Ars told her to treat the wound. Elisa treats Ars's wounds as a Priest.
"Eh?"
Elisa regained consciousness because Ars's request was a normal request.
"Why?" asked Ars in surprise.
"No, I thought you ..."
At that time, the two of them staring face to face. There are bandages and a small bowl of lotion on the counter. All Elisa has to do is to take care of Ars's wound as a Priest, nothing weird.
"What?" asked Ars again.
"Nothing!"
Elisa lowered her face in her embarrassment as a girl.
Ars looked at Elisa with a questioning expression. On his face, there was absolutely no other intention than to order Elisa to treat the wounds on his face, and several parts of his body.
Because she was wrong in her prejudice, Elisa doesn't want to continue being silent. She took a bowl of lotion, poked the lotion with her right hand, then stopped when she was about to touch Ars's face.
Come to think of it, that situation really made the chest flutter. A girl, together with a man, alone in the tent. Only two of -
"Why do you keep stopping like that?"
"So - sorry!"
Elisa threw away the negative thoughts and immediately moved quickly to treat Ars's wound.
All the wounds on Ars's body are bruises from the fight with Jeff and Hwang. Perhaps among them the scars from the battle with Zhang. All those wounds were the result of Elisa's worry.
Treatment is to rub the bruise with lotion, then wrap it or cover it with a bandage or cloth until the wound has healed.
It was the first treatment Elisa did for Ars after a while Elisa entered the party as a Priest. This made her unsatisfied and asked:
"Is this all?"
"About what?"
"That, what you want from me, is it just to treat your bruises?"
The job is simple. Anyone who is not a Priest can do it. Only with lotion, bandages, and smearing the wound, the job is done.
Ars thought of one thing he could ask for. "Massage me."
"M - massage?"
Rubbing and kneading the muscles and joints of the body with your hands, especially to relieve tension or pain.
In church, there is a lesson on mastery of massage. But because she was not very interested, and considered indecent, Elisa did not take that lesson.
Now the group leader asked for a massage.
"You can't?"
Ars is still waiting for his service.
If that's so, Elisa can't back down. She directed her two small hands to the big shoulders of the man. Then, slowly, she pressed her finger against the big shoulder.
"That's not massaging."
"Sorry?"
Ars suddenly complained about something.
"You're just tapping your fingers. Rather than massaging, it feels more like pervert touching. "
Elisa's level of shame rose to the top for being called a pervert. It made her raise her hands - "What are you saying?!" - then did a chop attack on Ars's shoulder.
Ars felt pleasure at the attack.
"Like that."
"About what?!"
"Do that hit repeatedly. It was better than your weak massage."
Previously he called Elisa a pervert, now he calls her weak. Elisa continued to lose her pride the longer she dealt with that cold man.
Even so, she did not want to admit those two things and accepted his challenge. "Okay, if that's what you want!"
