Go back to the mansion and cook lunch for Raina. Linc boiled the boiled fish with the disgruntled screams of the cats, and handed it over to them.
"HIIIIISSSSSS~!!!"
Seeing this pure white cat in front of him hissed furiously. Linc's face which was covered by a demon mask, smiled very gently.
"Grumpy Miss, aren't you a little useless in this house?"
"Look at your little ones. They can at least sell cuteness, but what can you give us?"
"HIIIIISSSSSS~!!!"
Linc hastily withdrew his hand.
"No, viral infections don't fall into the prize category. You know the rules, madam."
Face each other seriously. The kittens finished eating, and they all looked at Linc with very cute faces.
"Meow!"
"Nya~"
"MEEEOOOOONGGGG!!!!"
The last voice was the voice of the grumpy lady.
"It seems that you are refusing to negotiate."
Seeing that the grumpy lady hissed at him full of anger. Linc sighed, and picked up the tray on the dining table.
He didn't think much of it.
Talking incoherently to a grumpy lady is a form of relaxation in itself.
Linc felt a little relaxed.
"Meow~!"
Bringing a tray with a bowl of vegetable soup on it along with rice. Linc stopped at the bottom of the stairs, and looked back at the cat that had been following his.
"Get on my shoulder."
Like understanding what Linc just said. The grumpy lady climbed up Linc's clothes with her sharp claws, and she sat on Linc's shoulder silently.
"...It hurts, you on purpose?"
"...."
Climb the stairs one by one and reach the third floor. Linc walked up to Raina's door, and saw an empty plate under the door.
"Looks like her condition is getting better."
The first day Raina locked herself in the room, the food that Linc gave her she didn't eat at all.
The second day, Raina only drank water, for which Linc sighed helplessly.
The third day, Raina finally ate her food, even if it was only a little.
Day by day Raina's condition got better. This made Linc heave a sigh of relief.
"Raina, time to eat."
No answer.
If it was the usual situation, Linc would at most leave the food under the door, and just walk away.
However, today is different.
"Click!"
"BANG!!!"
Using the unlocking skill and kicking the wooden door really hard. Raina's door opened wide, and he entered the dark room.
The grumpy miss also got off Linc's shoulder, and walked around Raina's room curiously.
Looking down the window was closed, and the curtains were wide open to cover the reflection of the sun. Linc couldn't help but sigh once again that the sunflowers he had worked so hard to get were thrown away.
"Lunch for you."
Look at the dune hills of blankets that are above the bed. Linc placed the tray of food on the small table.
"I'll probably be away for a while. But I'll try to get home at night. As long as I'm not here the grumpy lady will welcome you."
"Besides, if I don't come home at night, I've already prepared frozen food in the fridge. You can warm it up in the microwave."
"Meow~"
Not like usual. The grumpy lady today is very docile.
Seeing that Raina was still silent. Linc walked out of the room, and closed the door slowly.
"See you again."
"Click."
Back into the silent darkness. The grumpy lady came to Raina's position, and caressed the mound of blankets in a spoiled manner.
The blanket fell...
Showing the figure of himself who was curled up facing the door.
Seeing that the demon had left her room, Raina slightly grasped the sunflower stalk that emitted a faint glint in her hand, and snorted in anger.
"Meow~"
Sun crystal flower shines with a faint sparkle.
______
He returned to his room and put on thick pants and long sleeves. Linc also arranged the magazines one by one, and he nodded his head in satisfaction.
"Crack!"
Pulled the pin of the gun and put it in the holster. Linc saw the 200 bullets and canned food in his bag, and he nodded his head once more.
"Everything is in order."
He saw two photo albums that he had taken out of his bag, and a camera. Linc locked them all in an inner drawer, and wrote an emergency letter in case he really didn't come home that night.
Feels nothing is left anymore. Linc exited the mansion in a hurry.
This time Linc's goal in entering the interior of the forest was to find another Hore crystal plant.
The human settlements they create are usually locations far from the concentration of Hore density in the air. As for crystal plants, they grow where there is a lot of Hore energy.
This is naturally contradictory.
One kilometer from lizrakra village is naturally an area of vacuum that has almost no Hore energy at all. Finding lavender crystal plants is just pure luck.
As for the stalks of sunflower crystals. The plant was accidentally carried away by the current of the river, and Linc picked it up with a long stick.
The sunflower stalk doesn't seem to come from a natural break. It can be seen that this sunflower stalk has no roots at all.
They're kind of cut off.
But even so, this gave Linc a glimmer of hope.
He would continue to follow the forest river line along the line to find those extremely rare sunflower crystal plants.
He didn't know when he found it.
Maybe everything is just a lie and coupled with false hopes. However, Linc would not give up.
"BANG!"
An ordinary python, three meters long, just fell from the top of a thick tree.
Pointing the muzzle down to the ground. He walked around the river more and more carefully.
The forest is a dangerous place.
Especially along calm river channels, where prey gather, and other living things to quench their thirst.
Walking down the stream, Linc cut the vines with a military dagger, and continued forward.
If he is tired, then he will rest for a while, and eat the canned food that is in his bag.
Carve a mark on the log so he doesn't get lost. Linc raised his head, and looked at the sky that was about to turn into night.
Before he knew it he had been walking all day long.
He felt sweat and fatigue take over his body. Linc lowered the dagger he was holding, and just stared blankly at the sky.
"I lost track of time. It's time to head back home."
Although it will be a long journey once again to return home to the mansion. Linc didn't really care.
Don't underestimate the government fugitives to survive in the jungle.
Besides having the guarantee of an immortal demon mask that wouldn't make him die instantly. Linc's body which is specialized in producing Hore energy is another mainstay of his.
"Weeng~!"
"Aauuuuuu!!!"
Linc looked to the right reflexively, and saw a cat-colored light that was dazzling near the horizon line.
"Wait a minute, isn't the sun setting in the west? What a light that is!"
Has no one to answer the call. Linc didn't really care.
His question just now didn't manage to hide the spirit hidden in his words.
Linc, managed to find his destination.
Sun crystal flower field.
