Chapter 170 - Awkward Morning

Early in the morning, a pretty awkward atmosphere is floating around the cave, Mafuyu and Lou who's silently eating breakfast cause this atmosphere to feel embarrassed on each other right now.

After all, they both sleep n.a.k.e.d and share a hot and passionate kiss from time to time all night.

While Lou is pretty normal as if there's nothing happening eating his breakfast silently, Mafuyu is not.

She looks like a well-done cook lobster from bright red color around her face to her neck, she only thought that is to hide somewhere and disappear in front of Lou.

But she can't find them both inside of a field where she can't go back or hide from him.

Trying to remove the embarrassing atmosphere around them Lou tries to ask what they are going to do next, after all, they can't just stay here for their whole life.

He can't wait for Mafuyu to recover because that's impossible, so he asks what they are going to do next.

"The only thing we can do is move forward, hoping that we find a solution for my problem in the way," Mafuyu seriously said, trying to hide her awkwardness.

Lou nodded, even himself didn't know what to do and the only Mafuyu knew the exact location of that pool.

After eating, they both pack up their things and empty the whole cave, after all, they don't want to leave the valuable resources here.

When they both got outside Lou looked and asked, "So how can we go down from here?" Lou said while looking at the horizon.

The cliff is pretty high, Lou sure that he will get a heavy injury from jumping from here.

"Of course by jumping," Mafuyu expressionless said and jumped without thinking that she actually can't use her ability right now.

Lou's face became pale, he inwardly cursed,' Shit, what an air-headed teacher!'

Strength Amplification X20 Strength 9 > 180 Agility 9 > 180

Lou ran along the cliff face, he need to chase her stupid teacher before she falls and die.

Picopsu the cliff is made from mIce, it's slippery, Lou can't get the right speed that he wants, then he stumps his feet to create a foothold to step in and accelerate downward.

After a few more stumb he can now clearly see the silhouette of Mafuyu, then he uses all his force to push more to catch her.

With one push, he falling speed suddenly accelerate even more and one scope he successfully catch her stupid teacher.

He did not expect that the cliff is really high, he only thought that it's about 400m or so but he is wrong, the cliff is actually 2000m high.

Grabbing Mafuyu in his arms, Lou somersault in the mid-air, taking his weapon at the same time and embedding it to the cliff face to slow down their fall.

They start to slow down but they both about to hit the ground, Lou helplessly kicks the cliff, holds Mafuyu tighter and after hitting the ground he rolls in the snow to transfer the force into the ground.

Lou who full of snow and ice around his body open his arms and loo kat her teacher and said," Sensei, your not only clumsy but yo actually stupid too"

"You forgot that you don't have the ability right now and you actually jump from that height?"

Mafuyu who actually realizes her bunder again actually shaking at Lou's chest, she almost dies again not from the accident but from her clumsiness.

Lou helpless pat her back trying to calm her down," Okay, don't do that again, think before you ack okay,"

Mafuyu nodded like a well-behaved child.

After Mafuyu calms down, Lou walks to the cliff to get his weapon, then they start to walk in a vast plain of snow and ice hoping they arrive at their destination at the right time.

After half an hour of traveling, time starts to get slower and slower, Lou helplessly looks at Mafuyu who's puffing hot air from time to time.

"Let me carry you Sensei, you're already tired," Lou helplessly said.

"N-No, I can still walk, let's continue, "Mafuyu said 10 times every time Lou asked.

Lou walked up to her and said," Do you want me to carry you like a sack of potato or princess carry or a piggyback ride?"

"N-No thank you, I can still walk," Mafuyu, who is trying hard to push Lou who is about to carry her.

"Okay, I am going to carry you like a sack of potatoes," Lou evilly said.

Mafuyu hurriedly said," I choose piggyback ride!!"

What a joke, she will never accept that kind of carry and princess carry is to embarrass, the piggyback ride is more appropriate for him.

Lou then carries her in his back, their traveling starts to progress fast without Mafuyu's hindrance.

But still Lou looks around trying to find some edible food or herbs for his alchemist, we don't know if he accidentally got a precious herb like at other times.

Meanwhile, Mafuyu who's behind her is actually silent watching all his movements, she doesn't know how this thing happens with them.

At first, she only wanted to come here to help him from his curse and of course to get something in that pool.

But she did not expect that at the very start she was actually a weight on their journey.

And not only that, she starts to feel something that is new to him after spending time with him, she actually starts to think that having a partner in life is actually much better than being alone.

But still there's something that stops her from accepting Lou, something that even herself doesn't know what is it.

Back to Lou who's happy picking herbs, he doesn't know what Mafuyu is thinking right now, but if he ever knows, he will feel lucky that he attracted a bishojo and not a big or legal Lolli this time.

System,' Host, i advise you to run faster, there's a problem behind us'

Lou asks,' What kind of problem?'

System,' You both are being hunted by a group of a tribe;

'But we did not enter any of their territories or pass any of them' Lou confused said.

System,' You did not attack them or anything, you just unlucky to become a hunting object of their tribe'

Lou then grabs Mafuyu and starts running, he doesn't want to be hunted and the right thing to do is to run fast until they get tired chasing them.

*Swish

Lou hurried to the doge after hearing that sharp sound.

*Thud

System,' It's too late, they're here'
