Chapter 91: Meet Again

Isabel rolled her eyes because he asked her to cook.

Before she could even answer, Oliver walked to the side of the wall, pulling out one of the dead fish monster bodies.

Of course, monster meat is edible, let alone of the fish variety. Quite a few people were grilling it around and seemed to be eating it with gusto.

With everyone busy, Oliver was able to use his bone strength to cut the fish meat, taking about 3 kg.

"Let's go downstairs," he said after he returned.

From the park below, it was at least very close to the wall. He could jump straight onto the wall from there.

Isabel, who had not answered in the end, still followed.

Of course, she did not refuse.

When they arrived at the park, she apparently asked him to sit and wait, saying that she was going to pick up the grill at the military base.

She left quickly while he waited and returned not long after, actually carrying a grill already filled with charcoal, even carrying some condiments.

"Oliver, the military is now looking for the young soldiers you killed," Isabel said as she placed the grill in front of him.

Her expression was quite calm when she said that, there was really no ripple at all on her face.

It seemed that she had no compassion for their deaths anymore. Perhaps because the one who killed them was the man she loved.

"Did they ask you anything?" asked Oliver in response.

"Yes, but I just said I parted ways with them, so I don't know where they went anymore," Isabel replied.

She finished lighting the charcoal after saying that.

Then she asked for the fish meat in Oliver's hand, seasoning it before placing it on the grill.

"You know, their captain is the son of a General, that's why the military is looking for them seriously," she continued.

"But they'll never find them," Oliver replied, feeling like laughing.

"Yeah, and there's no CCTV around these walls. In the end, they'll just be declared missing. Besides, ever since the monsters appeared, too many people and soldiers have gone missing. It's not something the generals can control," Isabel said as she fanned the charcoal using a book she had brought to increase the heat of the charcoal fire.

The smell of fish began to fill the air as she fanned the charcoal.

Oliver had to admit that it was an amazing scent, fragrant like there were thousands of rare spices all rolled into one.

The fish meat itself was obviously the main source of that aroma.

With the charcoal smoldering, the fish meat quickly became cooked, golden in color and oozing oil constantly.

Isabel didn't bring a plate, but she arranged some leaves, turning them into a plate.

She was skillful as she did so, showing that she was used to it.

Using her sword, she cut the fish meat into small pieces and then stabbed two stick blades into the two pieces of fish meat.

That way, knives and forks were not needed. They could eat just by relying on the blades.

"Please eat, don't hesitate to tell me if there's anything lacking in taste," Isabel said with an inviting gesture.

She really seemed to be treating her actions in cooking the fish as gratitude for Oliver's help.

In Oliver's eyes, this was a little less romantic.

After all, this kind of thing made them look just like friends who were returning each other's favors, not as lovers because lovers always help their respective partners for no other reason than love.

However, in reality, they are not officially lovers yet.

Oliver realized that it was his own fault for never saying anything to Isabel.

He himself found it rather difficult to say something like that to her.

There was a difference between her and Kim Hana when he knew them both.

Kim Hana in his eyes was his aunt's subordinate and then in this new era, she was almost like his subordinate.

Hence, from his point of view, there was a dominant feeling towards her so he easily said something like he wanted her to be his wife, even just a small wife.

Isabel was different. She was his friend at school, the same age as him, and had so many advantages that would impress anyone. Plus she had always been kind to him, so he could not feel dominant towards her.

Without feeling dominant, he could not say something like declaring love without preparation.

Being invited to eat by her, so he chose to eat first, stuffing a piece of the fish meat into his mouth.

The flavor was indeed so delicious despite the simple cooking. It made his mouth spontaneously chew the meat at such a high speed that in no time it was gone from his mouth.

He took another piece.

Isabel became curious as she saw the speed of his eating, so she started eating too.

When she finally knew what the fish tasted like, even a woman who always maintained an image while eating couldn't help but eat faster than usual.

"What the hell, people are busy defending the city, how can you two relax and eat here as if there's no problem."

Oliver and Isabel who were enjoying their meal could not help but be interrupted by the voice of a man scolding them.

They spontaneously looked back only to find Alex and his minions who had been beaten up by Kim Hana earlier that morning.

They should have been sent to the hospital, but seemed to have recovered in no time.

To Oliver's surprise, Alex who shouldn't have been able to walk normally could actually walk without the help of a cane. Your journey continues at m v|l-e'-NovelFire.net

There wasn't even a bandage on his leg anymore.

Now the wound from the knife attack seemed to have recovered, leaving only a mark.

Oliver wondered what they were doing to recover the wound. S~eaʀᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

At the same time, Isabel knitted her brows at Alex's words.

How could he say they were just relaxing while he himself had just arrived.

"Alex, we've been fighting for hours and are just resting now. You just arrived and make a comment like that, are you shameless? Where have you been all this time?" she replied, questioning his contribution back.
