"I pray for your souls to rest in peace."
Rant Valo did a silent prayer. He didn't know them but he was sure that he had to pray for them. They were victims of a horrible fate.
A serene glow suddenly appeared on the ground. It was like a heavenly light was pouring from the heavens. A bundle of dark smoke floated up into the air before slowly turning white. The white blobs of smoke turned around and looked at Floriana Sabina, Veia, and Rant Valo and beautiful faces with a smile appeared.
There was serenity as the souls of the 11 skeletons were finally set free. They all then looked at Veia and murmured inaudibly.
"They are honoring my promise…"
Veia spoke in wonder. She can hear what the souls were saying. They were basically expecting the good news in the afterlife.
"Amazing…"
Rant Valo was once again amazed by the wonders of the world. If it weren't for Floriana Sabina, he would have never seen such beautiful scenery. He looked at Floriana Sabina and smiled.
Floriana Sabina was looking at the passing souls and resolving grievances in the air. She noticed Rant Valo's smile and turned towards him.
"Ew, you're creepy, Disciple."
Floriana Sabina couldn't help but blurt out. There was an uncomfortable feeling that welled up inside her when she looked at Rant Valo's smile.
"..."
Rant Valo was speechless by her disgust. Even if he was used to being an outcast, it still hurts him when she says something like that.
"Hmph."
Floriana Sabina took a peek at Rant Valo and saw that he was frowning and she just snorted. He's just her disciple. He should know his place.
"Mashter…"
Veia's energetic and determined eyes from earlier were gone. It was replaced by a lazy and drunk feeling. It was as if she drank alcohol heavily.
She went towards the frowning Rant Valo and wrapped her arms around his neck.
"V-veia, what are you doing?"
Rant Valo wanted to free from her grip but it was unusually strong. It was like he was trying to force open a vice grip.
"Don't escccape, Masssster… This is natuuural for cooouples!"
Rant Valo blushed when he heard her say couples. He was still a virgin and he never had any intimate relationships like this so his little brother saluted again.
"W-wha-! The gall!"
Floriana Sabina was taken aback by Veia's proactive approach. She doesn't know if she was just pretending to be drunk or what.
"Granddddmasterrrrr, hugggg massteerrr too!"
Veia looked at Floriana Sabina and gave her an inviting look.
"What is she daydreaming of?"
Rant Valo who was stuck in her arms couldn't help but say. She was acting like she was sleepwalking while drunk and half-conscious.
"Something good, probably, right, Disciple?"
Floriana Sabina's face was unhappy as she watched Rant Valo enjoy the feeling of Veia's large watermelons. Rant Valo felt awkward when she mentioned it.
"Uhhh, probably?"
Rant Valo forced a smile on his face as he tried to not feel the watermelons touching his skin.
"Perverted Disciple!"
SMACK
Floriana Sabina slapped Rant Valo on the face. Her face was red and so was one side of Rant Valo's face. There was a red handprint on it.
"Why!? I didn't do anything!"
Rant Valo protested to her angrily. At first, he was in heaven, then in the next moment, he was in hell. He really can't understand her sometimes. The goodwill that he formed for her quickly evaporated into thin air.
"Mashhterrrr, youuu look deliiicious…"
Veia stared at Rant Valo's neck hypnotically. It was as if she was looking at a delicious piece of meat that only a 5 star Michelin chef can cook up.
"Ow!"
Rant Valo felt her sharp fangs dig deep into his neck as his blood was greedily sucked by her. Rant Valo quickly felt lightheaded from blood loss. She was sucking so much blood that he was starting to feel scared.
"Stop!"
Floriana Sabina hit the back of Veia's head with a hand chop. It knocked her out and she passed out, still biting onto Rant Valo's neck.
"Ow Ow Ow Ow…"
Rant Valo felt her sharp fangs dig deeper into his flesh as her unconscious body slowly fell to the ground. Floriana Sabina waved her hand and Veia's fangs were freed from Rant Valo's neck.
"She must be really tired…"
Floriana Sabina said helplessly. Veia wasn't acting like herself so she really can't feel anger for her not caring for Rant Valo's state. It may have just been an instinctive reaction on her part.
"My head… I feel like I'm flying…"
Rant Valo held his head in pain and confusion. Having lost a lot of blood, Rant Valo's brain could not think straight anymore. It was like he was on drugs.
"Ughh…"
Floriana Sabina rolled her eyes at Rant Valo. Now she had to take care of the two of them. A medicinal bottle appeared on her hand and she uncapped it. She shook it on her hand and a blood-red pill fell out.
Floriana Sabina looked at the half-conscious Rant Valo and pushed the red pill into his mouth. It quickly dissolved inside his mouth and traveled into his stomach where it was absorbed into his blood.
When the dissolved red pill touched his blood it triggered a spontaneous reaction. Rant Valo's blood multiplied like crazy. Rant Valo soon recovered from his blood loss and looked around confused.
"What happened?"
He was acting alert as if nothing happened as he looked around. He felt that his memory a few seconds ago was quite blurry. He couldn't quite recall it.
"You suffered from blood loss, Disciple."
Floriana Sabina explained to Rant Valo who was already slumped on the ground.
"Huh?"
Rant Valo was still confused which was typical for anyone who suffered anemia or hypoxia. It results in the lowering of the function of the brain.
"Just rest. I'm gonna cultivate."
Floriana Sabina couldn't be bothered to explain it to him anymore so she just sat down and cultivated.
