The Hedonist Sword God

Chapter 293: Unexpected proposal

Opening his eyes, Jian Shen who was curious to find out which woman that soft and warm voice belonged to ended up only seeing the roof of the building he was inside of.

So weak.

Feeling too weak to even try and move, Jian Shen who could only look at the roof guessed that he was inside a bamboo house.

Looking out of the corner of his eyes in an attempt to find the woman, Jian Shen though failing to find her saw a window and the scenery outside it.

Green...

All of the bamboos were green.

How was that possible when he fell inside the Black Forest?

Was he not in the Black Forest?

Did the woman who saved him take him somewhere else?

Having heard the woman's voice, Jian Shen now believed that what he saw did happen and wasn't entirely a dream.

What he wasn't sure of however was whether everything he saw did happen, and how much of it did he imagine.

Did the woman really have tails?

Groaning and using all of his remaining strength to sit up, Jian Shen started panting as soon as he sat up and rested his back against the headrest of the bed.

"Haaaaa.... Why do I feel so weak?"

"Don't exert yourself too much. Your soul was in a near almost crumbled state when I found you. You're really lucky to even be alive right now."

Hearing the same voice which brought him tranquillity once again, Jian Shen looked around and still failed to find the woman.

Ahhh.... She was speaking from one of the other rooms.

"How long was I asleep?"

"A week."

"Where am I?"

"In the core region of the Black Forest."

The Black Forest can look so beautiful?

A little surprised from not expecting the beautiful bamboo grooves he saw outside the window to be existing inside the Black Forest, Jian Shen who felt that the woman was deliberately hiding to tease him remembered that the two swords weren't with him.

Focussing on the connection he had to them, Jian Shen could faintly sense the direction they were in. Also, it seemed as if they were travelling towards him which made him feel very relieved because he was right now in no condition to move.

"I can tell that you are very nervous, not that I blame you. But you should prioritize on just resting for now. The more you rest, the faster your soul will recover. Unfortunately, I don't have any herbs to help your soul recover any faster so resting is all that I can suggest for you."

Unable to even nod his head since he felt that would be a huge waste of his energy, Jian Shen began looking inside the warehouses of items present inside the World Crest to see what he could use to recover more quickly.

He would've just asked Qingyu if she was here, but since she wasn't Jian Shen could only try to use his limited knowledge and hope to find the resources he needed.

After all, none of the women inside the World Crest knew much about the various resources either due to which Jian Shen could only rely on himself.

"This isn't much, but I prepared a soup out of all the herbs I could find in the area."

Opening his eyes and revealing the particular herb he brought out from one of the warehouses due to thinking it would help heal his soul, Jian Shen who saw the woman herself for the first time literally felt that he lost his breath.

"I love you."

"Huh?"

Looking at the boy whom she saved last week and was unconscious until now proposing to her with something like a herb the woman could only ask, "Did you hit your head on something?"

"Yes. I remember it hitting you when you saved me."

Speaking in a dreamy tone, Jian Shen who made the woman remember how she carried him back with her blush a little.

"Do you want the soup or not?"

Handing Jian Shen who nodded his head the bowl of hot soup and leaving, the woman felt that she had never seen someone so shameless who began thinking about sex just after waking up from a coma.

"Wait... Where are you going?"

"This is my house. I can go whenever I want."

Even though the woman sounded curt and angry, Jian Shen still felt that her voice sounded very warm and soothing to him.

"One last question."

"What is it?"

"I'm sure I'm imagining this, but by any chance did you have a tail when you saved me?"

"Oh, you mean these?"

Turning around and facing Jian Shen as a pair of fluffy ears appeared on her head out of nowhere, the woman at the same time had multiple tails appear on her back.

One... Two... Seven.... Nine.... Nine fluffy tails which looked like they were made out of the purest snow.

"Beautiful right?"

Nodding his head weakly, Jian Shen felt depressed at the fact that he couldn't even reveal how excited he was feeling from seeing those beautiful tails and ears which appeared out of nowhere.

Almost waving his hand towards the tails which were dancing and shaking at him, Jian Shen caused the woman to chuckle a little and say, "Sleep after you finish drinking the soup. Also, store that herb in your hand inside a proper container. It's losing all of its medical effects by staying out in the air like this."
