Chapter 889 The Last Daily Life 68
"Are you okay, Mr. Xiaolin?" Wiz ran up to wipe the slime off Xiaolin's face and hair, and asked with great concern: "Are you feeling unwell?"
"Anyway, I've cast a healing spell on you first. Is there any other area that hurts?"
Aqua also said this with a concerned look on her face.
“…It hurts…!”
"Where does it hurt? Tell me quickly!"
"My stomach... hurts... It hurts so much...!"
Xiaolin looked distressed.
“Look at how much pain he’s in…” Wiz seemed to have thought of something and exclaimed, “Could it be that the slime is poisonous!?”
"Wait a minute! I didn't put poison in it!" Cecily explained loudly, as if saying that the chocolate products she made were not poisonous. However, her explanation was not convincing at all. But then she said something unexpected.
"I think he probably just ate too much, so he has such a stomachache."
“You’re too full…?” Darkness was slightly stunned, but soon seemed to have thought of something. She looked at Xiaolin rolling on the ground and exclaimed, “Xiaolin, did you eat the slime when you were swallowed by the slime?!”
"I can't help it!" Xiao Lin covered his stomach and sweated profusely. At the same time, he defended himself, "I couldn't stop it from drilling into my mouth, and it tasted like chocolate. I couldn't help but... uh... vomit..."
Before he could finish his words, he ran to the side of the road and started vomiting violently because his bloated stomach was hurting so much.
Seeing Xiaolin in such a miserable state, Claire couldn't help but sigh, "Should I say you're lucky not to have been choked to death by the slime..."
"I didn't expect that I would actually get a stomachache from eating too much chocolate."
Aqua remembered the flag she had set before. Kobayashi had vowed that he would not eat so much that his stomach would get upset, but he never thought that it would come true in the end... However, in the end, he was forced to eat so much that he got an upset stomach.
"So I had already planted a flag for myself at that time?!...Damn it!"
Xiao Lin clenched his fists unwillingly.
At this time, Cecily was also extremely embarrassed and apologetic. She lowered her head and said to everyone, "Um... I'm sorry, I seem to have caused you some trouble."
Huh? Who are you?
Kobayashi was extremely shocked by the Axis cultist who apologized.
Huihui was very angry. She put her hands on her hips and complained loudly: "I mean, please pay for the window that was broken by the slime!"
"Okay... I will compensate you sincerely..."
Cecily resolutely accepted her fault. Seriously, who was she? Shouldn't she just walk away and pretend it wasn't her fault?
On the other side, Xiaolin, who had finally finished vomiting, wiped his sweet and astringent mouth, his face full of melancholy and frustration, and muttered: "Wow... I think I will be tortured by the nightmare of chocolate for a long time..."
Lynn looked at Xiaolin's appearance, sighed slightly and said, "Looking at him like this, he probably can't eat the chocolate we made, right?"
“It’s a shame, but it seems to be true.” Wiz nodded, but at the same time she was a little troubled: “Then, what should we do with the chocolate?”
"Then let's eat it ourselves!"
Cecily suggested.
"No, wait a minute!" Xiao Lin objected strongly. He said loudly, "I have already accepted it!? These are the first batch of chocolates in my life, and you want to take them back... Ugh... Ugh..."
Before he could finish, he ran to the side of the road again and started vomiting violently.
No, chocolate still makes Xiaolin feel extremely uncomfortable, and with his current frail body, it is simply wishful thinking to want to eat these chocolates, which will only add to his burden.
“Just give up this time.” Darkness patted his back and advised softly, “You can’t eat with such a stomachache. Desserts like chocolate can’t be kept for too long.”
"That's right, you should take some medicine and focus on healing your stomach." Aqua said the same thing. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, we will eat the chocolate!"
"I'm not worried about wasting food!" Xiao Lin rolled his eyes at her, then clicked his tongue unwillingly, "Damn it, things have turned out like this... my chocolate...!"
He felt so wronged that he was about to cry.
“Brother, please don’t be so depressed.” Alice clasped her hands together and said gently, “Although I feel a little regretful this year, I will do it again next year, so… please don’t force yourself now.”
"...?!"
Princess Alice seemed to be worried that Xiaolin would force himself to eat the chocolates. Although that would not hurt Princess Alice and the others who prepared chocolates for him, it would make Xiaolin suffer more pain, so she said that. However, Xiaolin said nothing and turned around to snatch the chocolates prepared by Alice and the others.
"Mr. Kobayashi?!" Cecily looked at Kobayashi's back as he suddenly ran away and asked loudly, "What are you going to do—"
"How can I let Alice... make everyone sad?! I'm going to eat everyone's chocolate!"
Xiaolin swallowed in big gulps.
Whether it was chocolate chiffon cake, chocolate biscuits, truffle chocolate, or bubble-heart chocolate, he stuffed them all into his mouth.
"Wait...! Xiaolin?!"
"Ahh, if I eat so quickly...!"
Cecily and Wiz exclaimed in worry.
“These chocolates…are all mine!”
Kobayashi ate all the chocolates like crazy.
Lynn covered her mouth and said in surprise, "I didn't expect that he would eat it all..."
“It’s crazy that he can eat so much chocolate in that state.” Huihui said helplessly with the corners of her mouth pulled.
"His dedication to chocolate is so admirable. No, or should I say, he showed his manliness in not making everyone sad?"
Darkness looked at Xiaolin with great admiration.
Even Claire, who always disliked him, nodded and couldn't help but admire Xiaolin and said, "Yes, you don't want to waste other people's kindness. It's really admirable, Mr. Xiaolin. Just for this reason, I recognize you."
The most important thing is, if you don’t eat the chocolate that Princess Alice has painstakingly made, it would be disrespectful. Be careful or I’ll kill you!
Alice also cried out in worry, "Brother, you are too stubborn!"
"But... please look at Mr. Kobayashi's expression." Wiz touched Kobayashi's cheek with a distressed and helpless look.
Aqua cast a healing spell on him and said with a smile, "He fell asleep with a peaceful expression. I think Xiaolin must have felt that he was willing to get a stomachache because of this."
That’s right, this is Kobayashi’s obsession with chocolate!
"Hehehe... Happy Valentine's Day..."
Kobayashi, who was lying on the ground, had a silly smile on his face in his dream, as if he had an extremely beautiful vision for Valentine's Day. Aqua and the others left him aside and discussed their plans for next year's Valentine's Day...
……
...
In the Adventurer's Guild, Darkness and Lynn were talking to Miss Luna, the clerk at the Adventurer's Guild counter. They seemed to have learned some information from her, and their faces showed a little helplessness and worry.
"...I see. So you won't be getting any more stock for the time being?"
"Well, the next time we get the goods has not been scheduled yet... I'm very sorry."
Luna bowed deeply.
"It's really a headache." Lynn patted her head and said helplessly: "If possible, I want to prepare it within today..."
"As for me, considering the possibility of failure, I wanted to start preparing a day in advance..."
Darkness also said this helplessly.
At this time, a person walked in from outside the guild, saw the two people at the guild counter, and walked straight over to greet them.
“Hey, Darkness and Miss Lynn.” The visitor’s face was filled with a happy smile. He said, “What’s wrong with you? Why are you so sad?”
Compared to her smiling face, it is very bitter.
“It’s Chris.” Darkness greeted the newcomer and explained, “Actually, I had a relationship with my lover a while ago…”
She explained the reason, and then continued, "Because of this reason, no one except Xiaolin got to eat the chocolate, so we want to make up for it, and we are preparing the chocolate ingredients, but..."
"Unfortunately, the cocoa which is the raw material has been sold out." Lynn spread her hands, with the same helpless expression on her face.
“Is the cocoa sold out?”
Chris blinked, obviously feeling that it was a little impossible. After all, it was neither Valentine's Day nor a special day. Logically, this shouldn't be the case...
"I asked about the situation and found out there is really no solution." Lynn explained to her, "The tree spirits seem to be more ferocious than in previous years. It seems difficult to collect them."
"Ah, it is said that there is a big disturbance in the primitive forest of Cocoa, and we can't get any more goods."
Darkness added the reason.
"I see..." Chris nodded.
"Chiss and Taylor, let's add Dust for now." Lynn lowered her head slightly and said, "I want to make chocolates and give them to the people who take care of me. Unfortunately..."
Lynn originally planned to keep the chocolate and give it to Dust, but she didn't expect that all the chocolate she made last time was eaten by Xiaolin alone. When she wanted to make some more, she found that the raw material cocoa could not be purchased smoothly.
Chris thought for a moment and said, "... I think, in that case, how about we all go to the primeval forest together? Actually, I want some cocoa, too. I received a lot of chocolates from everyone on Valentine's Day, and I think I can give you a gift in return."
“Chris too? Really? That’s great.” Darkness also smiled subconsciously and said, “It would be much more reassuring if Chris came along.”
"If you can't buy it, just get the raw materials... Well, this is really the style of an adventurer. If you can't buy it, just go collect it! That's right, this is an adventurer!" Lin En also said so.
"It's decided!" Chris cheered, "Let's go harvest cocoa, the raw material for chocolate!"
Afterwards, the three of them left the guild.
Of course, I also accepted some tasks that required Coco. After all, adventurers would not just leave like that to a certain extent. Since I came to the guild, I should always take on some tasks.
When they got outside the town and walked towards the forest, Chris couldn't help but ask, "Who is Darkness going to give the chocolate to?"
“Xiaolin, Aqua, and Megumin,” Darkness said without hesitation, “Thank you for your care.”
"Really?" Chris was slightly stunned and asked in confusion: "I thought you would only give it to Xiaolin. Is this the custom?"
“What?!” Darkness was startled, and quickly denied it and explained, “No, I do think I heard that it was given to the loved one… Well, it’s not like that this time.”
“Hey…really?” Chris tapped Darkness’ cheek with his finger and said meaningfully, “You just shifted your gaze a little, right?”
“That’s not the case!”
Darkness turned her head away, but no matter how you looked at it, it looked like she was forcing herself to be serious after being discovered.
"Humph……"
"Chris! Stop teasing me!"
“Ahaha, Darkness is really cute.” Chris laughed when he saw his friend puffing up his mouth shyly and angrily, then looked at another person and asked, “So, Miss Lynn, what does your chocolate mean?”
"As for me... I'll just give you the so-called friendship chocolates."
"No one has a real name, chocolate? I hope Xiaolin can work harder."
Chris spread his hands helplessly, not knowing what she felt sorry about. However, before the two of them could ask, they heard a faint shouting from a distance.
"Give me…………"
"Hmm? Did you hear anything just now?"
Darkness subconsciously looked at Chris and Lynn beside him, and Lynn also said, "It's 'give it to me', right? Could it be chocolate?"
"No, this is..."
Chris, a thief, had the best ears among the three, so she could hear what the other party was shouting. That's right, it was -
"help me!!!"
A person ran towards them quickly.
"It's Xiaolin's voice!"
"Huh?! Run!"
"Daxter is here too?! Why is he here?"
The person running away at a rapid pace with staggering steps behind Xiaolin was Lynn's teammate Duster. The two of them looked behind them as if they were afraid of something. The three of them looked into the distance and saw -
"Oh oh oh——"
It was a huge tree spirit that was chasing the two of them. It was covered with cocoa and looked very scary with its fangs and claws.
"Attacked by the ancient Coco tree spirit?!"
Lynn exclaimed.
"Wait! I'll come to rescue you right away!"
Chris ran quickly towards Xiaolin and Dust.
