"This rain has been going on for ages!"
Joey sat up in bed and looked out the window at the scene that was as dark as night, even though it was already daytime. The wind was howling and the trees were swaying wildly. The rain was pouring down and pounding against the glass, as if it would shatter the fragile glass at any moment.
Although only a few days had passed, Joey's body recovered quickly. Apart from a slight pain in his lower back, his spirits were back to normal.
Whether it was due to the Beast King's protection or his own extraordinary talent, Joey now felt that his body was exceptionally resilient and his self-healing ability was also very strong.
"Joey, why are you up?"
It wasn't Big Beard or Medes who came to visit Joey, but Martha.
"I need to move around after lying down for so long, otherwise I'll really become useless!"
Ever since Joey handed over the 1,000 gold coins she promised to Big Beard in front of Martha, she has been extremely kind to Joey, who is lying in the hospital bed. She often comes to visit him and even cooks delicious meals for him herself.
It's likely that Martha has already kept the 1000 gold coins safe; the dwarves' love for gold coins is no less than that of the goblins.
"It's good for you to get some exercise and recover sooner. The city has been quite lively lately, probably because Catherine's birthday is approaching. You can't miss it!"
As she spoke, Martha opened the lunchbox she had brought and took out the food she had prepared that day.
Did you bring the rum I ordered?
Joey, who hadn't had a drink for days, was really craving one. When Martha left last time, he specifically asked her to bring him a bottle of rum.
"I think you shouldn't drink it anymore. Wait until you're fully recovered before drinking it!"
Martha continued tidying up the food; it seemed she hadn't brought rum this time.
Joey was disappointed; her stomach, which had been feeling a little hungry, suddenly felt full.
He ate a little food and then lay back down on the bed. It seemed that he really could only drink alcohol again once his injury was fully healed.
Martha assumed that the food wasn't to Joey's liking and didn't ask any further questions. She simply put the remaining food back into the lunchbox, said goodbye to Joey, and left.
Squeak—
The door to the ward was suddenly pushed open, and Joey turned to look in the direction of the door.
"Boom!"
A thunderclap rang out.
"Lefreya?"
Joey looked at the figure standing at the door and called out in surprise.
"What's wrong? Are you surprised to see me?"
Levia pushed open the door and went straight to Joey's bedside, where she sat down.
"No, it's just that I've missed you terribly since we last met!"
Joey put on an innocent look and got out of bed again.
The torrential rain outside the window continued to fall, and Levia was soaking wet, as if she had walked straight back from the downpour.
The ward door was not closed, and there was a deep water stain where Leiflia had just walked.
"Do you miss me or the old Xiao Hei?"
Levia's long, thin ears twitched, shaking off all the rainwater that fell onto the bedding on the hospital bed.
"If possible, I'd still go with Xiao Hei. You know I really like her!"
Although Joey was very fond of Leiflia's figure, he still preferred a docile little black girl to such a formidable person whose personality was completely uncontrollable.
When Levia heard Joey's words, she wasn't angry. Instead, she smiled faintly and suddenly called softly towards the door, "Come in!"
As soon as she finished speaking, two "little black dogs" walked in from the doorway.
"Meow!"
"Meow!"
The two kittens meowed and waddled toward Joey.
(Is it because I've been a monk for too long that these two little cats with their gait now seem so handsome?)
"Is this compensation for me, some kind of emotional consolation?"
When Joey saw that the two kittens were also soaking wet, his deep-seated cat-loving nature was immediately activated. He got out of bed and prepared to pick up the two kittens and put them on the bed.
"If you think so, then it is!"
Levia raised her eyes slightly, a meaningful smile playing on her lips.
Joey saw this smile and immediately felt a chill run down her spine; her hands, which were about to pick up the kitten, froze in mid-air.
"Meow!"
"Meow!"
The kitten meowed softly twice more, then suddenly pushed off with its hind legs and jumped directly from the ground onto the hospital bed, leaving eight muddy paw prints on the pristine white sheets.
Joey shuddered and shrank back towards the headboard. Looking at the two "little black" cats in front of her, she felt a chill run down her spine. They looked just like the cats that often appeared in horror movies in her past life.
What are you afraid of?
Levia continued to laugh, bringing her head close to Joey's, their noses almost touching.
"I...I...I wasn't scared?"
"I...I have...what's so scary about it?"
Although Joey said that, fine beads of sweat had already appeared on his forehead, and he couldn't help but swallow.
Leiflia noticed the movement of his Adam's apple and couldn't help but chuckle. Because they were so close, a captivating fragrance wafted into Joey's nostrils, but he had no interest in appreciating it at the moment.
"A low-ranking human who can speak Elvish, how interesting!"
These words weren't spoken by Levia, who was standing close to Joey, but by a kitten standing on the hospital bed. It slowly approached Joey and looked him over.
(As expected, it's the elves again!)
Joey's back was also soaked with sweat. Just as he had guessed, these two cats were no ordinary creatures. Fortunately, he had just managed to control his urge to go forward again.
I wonder what brings these two elves here. Just one of them, Levia, is enough to give Joey trouble.
"He looks so cute. I wonder if a child born from an elf and a human will still be an elf?"
Another kitten approached Joey, its words carrying a teasing tone.
"Alright, alright, he's the one chosen by the Sunwell, don't really scare him!"
Levia pulled her head back, suddenly stood up from the hospital bed, walked to the door of the ward, gently closed the door, clasped her hands together, leaned against the door, and continued to smile at Joey.
Just as Joey was about to breathe a sigh of relief, another unexpected change occurred. The two "little black" figures in front of him suddenly transformed into human form, with two long, thin ears that were exactly the same as Leiflia's.
However, what made Joey swallow hard was that the two female elves appeared before him completely naked, and their graceful figures were so captivating that Joey couldn't take his eyes off them.
Unfortunately, her long, flowing golden hair, soaked by the rain, clung tightly to her chest, completely obscuring what should have been two of the most eye-catching glimpses of her breasts.
The scene inside the ward was as follows: a woman named Levia, who looked like a mature woman, was leaning against the door, while two naked and stunning female elves on the bed looked at Joey, who was still in a daze, with teasing eyes.
