Poked the chest muscle

After Knox finished his work, Anrita lay on Knox's back again and asked him to continue carrying her.

Knox couldn't help but suspect that the little female thought of herself as a coolie.

Later, Anita couldn't hold on any longer and fell asleep on Knox's back.

When she woke up, she found herself lying in a dilapidated house and Knox was not around.

Her hands and feet were not tied, and she felt helpless. Didn't the other party worry at all that she would escape?

Soon, Anrita walked out of the house and understood why Knox didn't tie her up.

There was a vast wasteland in front of her. She slept in a small wooden house abandoned in the wasteland. Half of it had collapsed. Knox cut down trees to support the other half, and made a bed with hay and his own coat so that she could have a good sleep.

During the time that Knox was away, Anrita was not panicked. She felt that Knox was an S-class strongman who grew up in the Pirates Group, and nothing would happen to him.

She moved a stone and sat in the open space at the door of the cabin, waiting for Knox to come back with a dry mouth.

It wasn't long before Knox returned.

In fact, he was only away for more than ten minutes. After all, he was worried about leaving a fragile little female alone in this strange place, even though there were no wild beasts or other people here for the time being.

He held a branch with thumb-sized, bright red fruits hanging on it. Knox placed the fruits in front of Anita and sat on the grass, picking a few fruits and biting them one by one, making a crunching sound.

Anrita also quietly picked a few fruits to eat.

The fruit is crisp, juicy and sweet, a bit like crabapple, but juicier than crabapple.

She ate several of them in a row.

At this moment, Knox suddenly asked: "Why didn't you run away just now?"

While eating the fruit, Anita glanced at him and said, "I'm not running away. I want to go back to the Pirates with you and become the wife of your leader. When the time comes, you will have to obey my orders."

Knox stopped eating the fruit, slowly turned his head, and looked at Anrita with deep eyes: "Do you want to be our leader's wife?"

Anita looked back at him: "Why, is it impossible? You went through so much trouble to capture me, wasn't it just to give me to your leader?"

Knox's expression was somewhat complicated. He looked at Anrita with a dim gaze. After a while, he slowly spoke: "The leader is over 260 years old. You..."

He paused and asked, "Don't you mind that he's old?"

The Anrita in front of me has just completed the second differentiation and looks to be only eighteen or nineteen years old.

Anita took a bite of the fruit and found that Knox was staring at her intently, as if her answer was crucial.

She ate two more fruits before she said slowly, "Actually..."

Anita approached Knox with a smile and whispered in his ear: "I still prefer young males, for example, like you..."

As she spoke, she reached out and gently poked Knox's chest muscle, and winked at him: "If you were with me..."

The moment Anrita came closer, Knox's pupils shrank. When her hand touched his chest muscles, his whole body suddenly stiffened, and then he quickly took two steps back, his eyes full of panic, staring at Anrita in amazement:

"What are you doing?"

What on earth was this little female trying to do? Why was she suddenly like this? Knox looked extremely panicked.

Anrita watched him retreat, feeling speechless.

How can a grown man be so naive!

It was just a poke on the chest muscle, nothing else, is it necessary to have such a big reaction?

She shook her head and continued to eat the fruit with a helpless look on her face.

Knox was a little angry. He was reacting so strongly, but the little female seemed nonchalant. What did this mean? Was it because his figure wasn't good enough?

His ears and neck were red, and he sat half a meter away from Anrita in a huff, as if he was afraid that she would suddenly come over and molest him again.

After eating the fruit, Anrita found that the sky was gradually getting dark. Then she realized that Knox had carried her in the mountains for a day and a night. Now he was taking a rest at dusk, and he would probably continue his journey tomorrow.

She then asked Knox, "Should we continue on our journey?"

Knox's ears flushed, and he replied with an evasive look, "There might be a sandstorm tonight, so we'll leave tomorrow."

Anita replied with an "Oh" and got up and went back to the cabin to sleep.

She hadn't had a good rest since being abducted by Knox, so it was more important to sleep when she had time.

Knox sat outside until midnight. He felt that although this little female was physically weak and mentally non-aggressive, she was indescribably dangerous! He had to keep his distance from her!

However, the temperature difference between morning and evening in this place was extremely large. The temperature dropped suddenly in the middle of the night, and Anrita in the house was woken up by the cold.

She hissed and sneezed while sitting on the bed.

It was pitch black all around and she couldn't see anything. She groped her way out of bed, but because she was too cold and couldn't see clearly, she tripped over something and fell off the bed with a bang.

Anita screamed in surprise. Knox, who heard the noise, immediately stood up and rushed into the house. "What's wrong?"

He was a little anxious. Seeing Anrita fall to the ground, he thought she had fallen down while sleeping. He quickly walked over, picked her up and put her on the bed. He frowned and said, "Why are you sleeping so restlessly?"

Anrita didn't know how to respond for a moment.

She was shivering from the cold.

The longer she stayed in this orc world, the more she understood why females were so rare and precious.

The males have ferocious beastly appearances, can see in the dark, and have sharp claws; they have thick skin and flesh, and their wounds heal quickly. Some males have scales on their bodies that can even protect them from swords and guns.

Not only is it resistant to heat and cold, it is also extremely energetic and will not feel tired even after walking for a whole day and night.

Anita felt very aggrieved. If it weren't for Knox, she wouldn't have to suffer in the cold here!

She glared at Knox in the dark and complained, "Are you stupid? I woke up because I was cold. Can't you feel how cold it is now?"

As she spoke, her teeth chattered from the cold, her arms clasped tightly around her chest, and she unconsciously leaned into Knox's arms: "Can't you just make a bonfire for me? I'm almost frozen into an ice sculpture!"

Anita was still wearing a short-sleeved shirt and a skirt, but she felt that the temperature was at least minus ten degrees Celsius, and she really felt that she was about to freeze to death.

Knox was a little surprised. He looked at Anrita and asked, "What? Are you so afraid of the cold?"

He was only wearing a black vest and sat outside for most of the night, but he didn't feel cold at all.

This may be related to his animal form. He is not afraid of cold, but more afraid of heat.

Realizing that he had ignored Anrita's feelings, Knox felt a little embarrassed. He really didn't know that females could be so afraid of the cold.

Knox gently placed Anrita on the bed and said softly, "Wait a moment."
