"This needs to be handled properly, otherwise what if it gets infected?" Luo Chenxi sighed, looking at the teary-eyed Anna.
"You're right..." Anna nodded, then took a deep breath as if preparing herself. But when she was about to bend down, Luo Chenxi's hand had already touched her wound, causing her body to twitch in pain.
"Don't move," Luo Chenxi knew that Anna wouldn't dare to harm herself, so he had to do it himself. Although it required professional disinfectant, they didn't have it at the moment, so he could only clean the wound with the lake water. Fortunately, the water in the lake was very clean and almost unpolluted, which was a stroke of luck.
Anna was very nervous at the moment, her body stiff with tension. After all, this was the first time she had been so close to the opposite sex, and he was even washing her feet. But it didn't feel as resistant as she had imagined, because the way the boy looked at her was different from others, it wasn't a gaze with a hidden motive.
As Luo Chenxi touched her, Anna's mind wandered. The black-haired boy's hand was warm, and through the contact of their skin, Anna discovered that his hand was very smooth! Was he the son of some noble family? In this world, commoners labored all year round, so it was impossible for their fingers to be so smooth. Anna guessed that this boy might be from a noble family or a talented magician. However, she had basically seen the nobles of the Lettersinia Empire who were the same age as her, and she hadn't seen this boy before. After all, he was so handsome, her heart thumped when she saw him, and his hair color was extremely rare black!
How could she forget after just one look? Speaking of which, the foreign world heroes of the Altherler Monastery now seem to have black hair!
"Right! Sir, what is your name?" Anna asked nervously, unable to contain her curiosity.
"Before asking others, shouldn't you introduce yourself first?" Luo Chenxi asked with a smile.
"Oh... um... you're right." Anna hesitated. "My name is Anna, you can call me Nana, sir."
"Nana?" Luo Chenxi murmured. "I'm Luo Chenxi, you can call me Chenxi."
"Chenxi?" Anna found it strange. It wasn't a hero's name...
"A strange name, but I really like it..." Anna smiled. It felt warm, just like the morning light that brought hope to herself in a desperate situation.
But at this moment, a large monster suddenly emerged from the nearby woods, startling Anna. She grabbed Luo Chenxi's hand tightly. With sharp horns on its head and strong limbs, it was a Earth Scale Rhino. Though its temperament was unpredictable, it was confirmed that this monster particularly liked to attack other creatures to showcase its strength. It was said that even a high-level strongman would be seriously injured if hit by an adult Earth Scale Rhino's horn.
After locking onto the two of them, the Earth Scale Rhino quickly raised its right foot, assuming an attacking posture.
"What should we do, Mr. Chenxi?" Anna asked anxiously, lifting her head. If the Earth Scale Rhino charged at them now...
"Don't worry, nothing will happen," Luo Chenxi said calmly. He glanced at the Earth Scale Rhino, and suddenly, the ferocious monster stopped its attack, showing a look of fear and quickly retreated, disappearing from their sight.
"What just happened!?" Anna muttered, unable to imagine it. But she was certain that the young man had done something to the Earth Scale Rhino just now.
"Thank you!" She thanked Luo Chenxi, but he seemed indifferent to her gratitude."It's just a small favor."
Anna frowned, feeling that this young man had been keeping a distance from her, albeit invisibly.
Under normal circumstances, isn't this the best time to make a good impression?
Doesn't this guy understand what it means to be a hero and save the damsel in distress?
She's so cute, can't you say something to show your interest?
Wait a minute...
He looks so handsome, could he possibly be lacking in female companionship!?
After understanding the situation, Anna's face became somewhat embarrassed.
Because, without revealing her identity, in this young man's eyes, she...
just seemed to be a burden!
