Chapter 89-89- Maid
Since being promoted to the third-stage elite and possessing the knowledge and wisdom brought by human memory fragments, Abella has never experienced two days of such hell.
This feeling made her feel as if she had returned to the muddled days of the first and second stages.
But the key point is that she didn't remember anything at that time, didn't know what happened, and didn't care at all. But now it's different. Not only does she have a high level of intelligence, she even has demands for quality of life and personal dignity. If we deprive her of her abilities at this time and let her survive in the wilderness like a low-level deformer, wouldn't that be asking for her life?
In fact, the morning before yesterday, when she was just left behind by Yvette and Dougrabi, although Abela was confused, she did not feel particularly desperate.
She thought, after all, she was a fifth-stage lord. At most, her evolutionary factor was gone and she needed to replenish some food. Once her body converted the food she ate into evolutionary factors, she would be able to recover her strength slowly by eating. The future was still very promising.
What's more, as the guard of the Pale Nest, she is very familiar with the situation around Kux and knows that this place is about to be plundered to the point where nothing is left.
If you live alone in the wild, as long as you stay away from Cooks and avoid mountain whales, there is actually little chance of encountering a second aberration, so there is no risk.
With this thought in mind, she simply decided to settle down in the ruins, at least to shelter from the wind and rain.
But then, when hunger came, she suddenly realized that she seemed to have no way to solve the problem of food sources.
After all, as the guard of the hive, she has been eating nutrients provided by the hive for many years, and because of these nutrients, she does not need to eat for a long time, and one meal a month is enough.
Now, due to her weak body, she has fallen to the point where she has to eat three meals a day like an ordinary human!
Where does this leave her to find a suitable source of food?
So Abela had to leave the ruins and began to wander in the cold northern wilderness to find food for herself.
Then she searched for a whole day and night, sleeping in the open air. She didn't know how far she had walked, but she just kept moving in the direction where the black dragon flew away. On the way, she encountered some animals like goats, but she couldn't catch them at all. The things she could catch were all strange insects, which she found disgusting and would rather die than eat.
This went on until the third day, when Abela, who had not eaten for a long time, finally made a discovery before fainting from hunger - a group of snow-white and plump sheep.
At this time, she no longer had the mind to think about why there was such a clean flock of sheep here. She just wanted to catch one quickly and tear it to pieces with her snow-white fangs, which were different from those of humans, to quickly restore her strength and end this nightmarish survival in the wilderness.
but……
The results of the hunt were far beyond expectations.
She never imagined that she would be so weak that she couldn't even beat a sheep! She was chased by a particularly fierce sheep and didn't even dare to look back!
This shocking fact stunned Abella. She had originally been harboring a bitter fantasy: she would hide for a while to recover her strength, then make a comeback in the future. One day, she would ascend to the rank of Commander-level expert and launch a magnificent revenge on the silver-haired girl who had abandoned her, making her pay for all the pain she had endured today with a bloody price...
But now it seems that I won’t die before I accomplish my mission, right?
A few minutes later, Abella was knocked to the ground by the ferocious leader again. Her mentality was finally completely broken and unbalanced. She just lay on the ground and couldn't get up.
After all, as long as she didn't get up, she wouldn't be pushed. Besides, she was too hungry to have any strength left. If she forced herself to get up, she would fall flat on her face after walking a few steps.
This trick was quite effective. Seeing that she was lying on the ground and couldn't get up, the leader sheep stopped attacking and just waited by the side.
After lying there for a while, Abella felt wronged again when she thought about her current situation. She started to cry. She thought that since she couldn't even beat the sheep, she would definitely not be able to eat mutton. She might as well just die.
She could accept being killed on the battlefield by a commander-level warrior, but she absolutely could not accept being humiliated like this! This was too damaging to her self-esteem!
Just when she was feeling extremely depressed, she suddenly saw an unexpected figure standing on the grass slope, staring at her quietly.
This was the person she hated the most and wanted to cut into pieces the most in recent days. Even in her dreams, she wanted to eat him alive.
But unlike in the dream, when Abella saw the other person now, she felt as excited as if she had seen an angel under the goddess's throne, and she was so happy that she almost cried.
Of course, there were no angels under the goddess's throne, and she wasn't truly grateful. She just wanted to cling to her and get through the current difficulties first.
"Lord Roxivia, have you finally come to rescue me?"
When Yvette approached, Abella struggled to stand up, but was afraid that she would be pushed down if she stood up, so she turned over and crawled towards Yvette, then knelt in front of her, as if she was performing some kind of kneeling ceremony.
Looking at this once beautiful, now disheveled face, Yvette didn't know what to say. Seeing that she was still a little afraid of the leading sheep next to her, Yvette walked over and kicked it, driving it away. Then she said, "Wait a minute, I'll get you something to eat."
It was noon now, and Dugrabi was probably preparing to have his last roasted whole lamb before leaving. She could go and borrow some.
"Thank you, Lady Roshivia!" Abella said excitedly. Due to exhaustion, she couldn't follow and could only continue to lie on the grass here to rest.
After Yvette's figure disappeared in the direction of the valley, Abella breathed a sigh of relief. For a moment, she felt that her enemy's face did not look so hideous anymore, and she even felt a little genuinely grateful.
Then, after lying on the ground for a while, Abela felt that it was too undignified to lie there, so she tried to stand up.
But as soon as this thought came to her mind, she shuddered and subconsciously looked to her side. Sure enough, the sheep came closer again, staring at her with its devilish eyes, as if it was also waiting for something.
Abella took a deep breath and lay back down silently, thinking that after she had eaten and drunk her fill, she would definitely start her revenge on this stinky sheep.
If I can't beat Lady Roshivia, how can I be afraid of you?
…
A few minutes later, Yvette came to Abella, holding a roasted lamb leg that was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside with wind magic. She watched her wolf down the whole lamb leg and burped with satisfaction before asking, "What are you going to do next?"
"Me?" Abella showed a puzzled expression, knelt on the ground, and suddenly said in fear, "You... still won't allow me to follow you?"
"I told you, I don't have a hive. I won't help you advance, nor will I have any extra nutrients to give you. It will be of no benefit for you to follow me." Yvette squatted down and looked Abella straight in the eye.
In reality, she wasn't opposed to Abella. After all, in a world where humanity had been wiped out, her faction had vanished, so how could she possibly clash with the aberrations? She simply viewed the lower-level aberrations as nutrients, devouring them to replenish herself. But the aberrations themselves were already doing this, so it wasn't surprising at all.
And what if she really is a freak? A special kind of mutation?
However, she didn't know what Abella, as a deformed being, really thought.
Without the constraints of her hive, can she maintain her loyalty like a human? Will she harbor sinister intentions, appearing submissive but actually only thinking about eating herself?
“But I still want to follow you…” Abella looked at her pitifully, like a puppy worried about being abandoned by its owner.
Of course, she was really sincere at this time. After all, if she didn't hold on to this thigh, she would have to go back to the wilderness to survive. That would not be a life for a human being, and even the heir of God would not be able to bear it.
As for revenge, that's a long-term plan, there's no rush.
Yvette stared at her face for a moment, nodded slightly, and said, "It's okay for now."
She planned to take Abella on a trip for a while, and through long-term contact, deepen her understanding of high-level mutants. When Abella's strength recovered to around the third or fourth stage, or she wanted to leave on her own, Yvette would take the initiative to let her go.
"Really?!" Abella said in surprise, and immediately knelt on the ground again, saying sincerely, "I will definitely not let you down, Lady Roshivia!"
Yvette hummed and had to admit that the key to the final decision was that Abella's evolved appearance was a beautiful queen, and she looked almost identical to a human being, which was very pleasing to the eye.
In future journeys, it would not be bad if I could have such a beautiful maid to serve me, drive me, and do some work like dusting.
