With the permission of the owner of the body, Ash began to take off his clothes. He didn't take off all of them, but only unbuttoned half of the double-breasted buttons on his robe and pulled the collar down, revealing one of his thin shoulders and pale chest.
Sigourney's body, from the outside, is tall and slender, a pure elf figure. However, it is completely different inside. This body is not weak or fragile at all. On the contrary, the bones are hard, the muscles are well-proportioned, and the lines of the chest are tight and smooth, like a piece of cold white jade.
But now the white jade had a flaw. The place where the sunlight hit through a layer of fabric looked as if it had been burned. It was red, swollen and ulcerated, which was shocking to the sight.
Ash's heart tightened, and he quickly picked up a ball of medicine, gently applied it on the wound, and rubbed it carefully to spread the medicine.
Then cover the wound with the bandage provided by Sigourney, which can be directly attached to the skin.
Mission accomplished!
He breathed a sigh of relief and put his clothes back on.
"How often do I need to change the medicine?" he looked up and asked carefully.
Sigourney looked at him suspiciously, but did not answer his question. Instead, she blurted out three words without thinking: "That's it?"
Ash said "Hmm?" and asked quietly, "What's wrong? Did I do something wrong just now?"
"...No." Sigourney stood up and walked out of the tent expressionlessly. "It was done very well. There was no mistake."
Ash blinked, still feeling that he had done something wrong. He took a few steps forward to catch up, but considering the sunlight outside the tent, his steps were still a little hesitant, and he lagged behind Sigourney by one step.
When Sigourney reached the entrance of the tent, she turned around with a complicated and suspicious look in her eyes: "You said you liked me, but you were lying, right?"
Ash: "Huh?"
Sigourney snorted, turned around, opened the tent curtain and walked out.
Ash: "..." So he must have done something wrong?
While Ash was reflecting and thinking, Yelena quietly slipped in and sat face to face with Ash on the carpet.
"Ash?"
She called out the name awkwardly towards Sigourney's face.
Sigourney's face gave her a quiet, well-behaved smile in return.
"!" Yelena's heart skipped a beat and she was frightened, "Ah, Ash, don't smile at me again. It's so scary!" It was a complete mental attack!
Ash nodded in understanding, keeping a straight face, and for a moment he looked like Sigourney's aloof self.
"It's amazing." Yelena looked at Ash curiously. "But there are thousands of ancient magics, and there must be one that is more bizarre. It's okay to think so."
She saw Ash's slightly red and swollen eyes and couldn't help laughing: "Hey, remember when Sigourney cried and made your eyes swollen in the Boulder Castle?"
Ash nodded.
"You cried until his face was swollen this time too." Yelena laughed amusedly, "It's one time per person, give and take, isn't that fair and reasonable?"
Ash raised his hand and touched his eyes, and he also found it quite interesting, and curved his eyes.
"We agreed not to laugh!" Yelena covered her eyes and smiled innocently and gently with Sigourney's face. It was so disillusioning!
Is it really that exaggerated? If Sigourney smiles, she must look even better, right? Ash looked at her helplessly, his face returning to expressionlessness. He simply let her look at him while asking about the situation outside. He hadn't had time to ask this question when he was busy applying medicine with Sigourney just now.
Yelena: "They have all been taken away by the law enforcement team. They will go to the royal city with us and be interrogated again."
She raised an eyebrow at Ash, "Congratulations. You're about to have your own magical materials before you even become a wizard's apprentice."
Ash was confused, why did you say that?
"The Wizard Association has a mechanism for managing magic materials," Yelena said. "First, general magic materials can be captured and possessed by oneself, but there is an upper limit to the amount of materials a person can possess. The upper limit is determined by his strength level. If the amount exceeds the upper limit, it must be handed over to the association."
"Secondly, as I told you before, the association lists protected materials because of their rarity, and private capture and sale is not allowed. For example, elves. If wizards want to own or use such materials, they must apply to the association to rent or purchase them."
"Third, this is the key." Yelena stretched out her finger and shook it. "When the wizard encounters a magical material that actively attacks the wizard, the wizard will subdue and capture it. In this case, it is not subject to the above two restrictions. In the battle, you can have as many materials as you capture."
"They are your spoils of war, you risked your life to get them, and they are proof of your strength." Yelena said, "Like the three people on the tundra, like the thirteen people today, as long as they can prove that they are indeed coming to kill us, the Wizard Association will not confiscate them, but will return them to us after interrogation."
She counted on her fingers for Ash: "Sixteen people in total, including one vampire, seven elves, and one wolf orc! Vampires and elves are both protected materials, and it is usually difficult to apply to the association for their use! This time we really made a lot of money!"
She paused, and suddenly realized that Ash was also some kind of magical material. It was too exciting for her to mention the material, capture, and use it all at once.
She waved her hand apologetically to Ash: "Don't mind me, I don't mean anything bad, it's just..." She scratched her cheek in distress, "I'm used to saying this..."
"I know." Ash wanted to give her a comforting smile, but then he remembered that Yelena told him not to smile, so he pulled the corners of his lips halfway and tried to tighten them again, "You didn't mean any harm."
Yelena didn't belittle magical creatures, nor did she treat living magical creatures as inanimate objects like other wizards. She just lived in Iluv all the time, and her way of speaking and her words were all based on Iluv's way of speaking.
Ash thought that he should get used to this. After all, he was about to enter the real world here.
Before he became as powerful as Sigourney, he could not have any flaws and must not reveal that he was from Broken River Plains.
Seeing that Ash didn't mind, Yelena became happy again: "Ash, which one do you want? There are nine magical creatures in total. Ivan, you and I can each have three - oh, that's not right!" She suddenly felt depressed, "They are all Sigourney's spoils. Ivan and I didn't contribute. Ash, at least you provided your body."
Ash, who provided the body: "..."
"But magic materials cannot possess magic materials." She muttered to herself, "From the results, they are still our spoils, right?"
Judging from Yelena's persistent attitude, magical creatures are indeed extremely precious and sought-after.
Ash was curious about another thing, "There are human wizards in there, are they given to us too?"
Yelena nodded. "Usually they sign a slave contract and assign them to do something. You can also choose not to do it and sell them to the association in exchange for points."
"They are obviously human, why would they join the Camarilla?" Ash asked.
"There are various reasons." Yelena sighed, "Ambition, interests, and of course feelings, likes or hatred, it's very complicated. Ash, you have been in Duogu Village, you are too naive in this regard. Remember to finish reading all the novels I gave you, you will benefit a lot!"
Ash nodded in understanding.
After finishing the business, Yelena couldn't help but approach Ash, glanced at the entrance of the tent, and asked in a low voice: "What were you and Sigourney doing here just now?"
Ash answered honestly, "Apply medicine." He pointed to his arm, then to his chest, "They were all burned by the sun."
Yelena's eyes lit up: "Did he give you medicine?"
"Sigourney helped with the arm," Ash said.
"So, you did it to your chest yourself?" Yelena raised her voice excitedly.
Ash had no idea what she was so excited about, but nodded anyway.
"Great!" Yelena gave him a thumbs up. "You confessed your love last night and got it done today. At this rate, you should be sleeping in the same bed with him when the train arrives in the royal city, right?"
"Will it, will it?" Ash was stunned by Yelena's huge idea.
"How is that possible? Scarlet Moon is not that easy to take off!" Yelena was amused, laughing and trying to pat Ash's shoulder, but she raised her hand halfway and retracted it in shame. No, no, I dare not touch the boss's shoulder.
She laughed enough before winking at Ash mischievously: "Did you see Sigourney's chest when you were applying the medicine?"
Ash's mind unexpectedly encountered a chest like cold white jade. The skin was pale and delicate, and the texture was smooth and flowing. It shone brightly under the light of the crystal lamp.
He nodded blankly.
Yelena was in high spirits: "You touched it too, right? How did it feel?"
Hmm...tight, cold and hard, but when you press it, it's still elastic and tough.
Ash's fingertips trembled slightly. It was not that he had not noticed these extremely clear details just now, but because he was worried about the wound, they were pushed into the corner of his mind. Now that Yelena asked about it, they could not wait to rush out.
Color, outline, temperature, feel...all the factors that can be captured by all the senses are imprinted in his memory, vivid and profound.
Ash blinked, his mouth suddenly dry, and he raised his hand to cover his face, his palms were cold.
Phew, luckily it was Sigourney's body that was used. He thought with relief, if it was his own, all the blood in his body would probably rush to his face, right? The temperature on his face would definitely burn him.
Yelena on the side was still chattering, "Tell me, Ash. Don't you have any idea at all? He's the one you like!"
Ash buried his face in his slender fingers and thought helplessly, yes, he really did act like he had no idea at all just now.
I just took the medicine carefully and seriously.
No wonder Sigourney said she was lying about liking him.
