Chapter 1157 Cute name
When Lex returned, he was relieved to see that Moon was awake. Harry and nurse Jubilation were keeping her company as they chatted and...
He froze. Why were they watching Lover's Island? He recognized the planet on the projection immediately, not to mention that they were following Thaliel who seemed to be making her way out of a maze of giant mushrooms.
Lex coughed to clear his throat.
"I'm back. Harry, I got the feathers you needed."
The trio turned to look towards him and Lex could immediately tell, based on those schadenfreude expressions that they had probably seen everything. That was fine. Lex had experience with such things. As long as he pretended to just not be embarrassed, they couldn't do anything.
Wait a minute...
Harry and Jubilation were looking at him, suppressing their giggles, but Moon's gaze was locked slightly to his right.
Lex turned and saw that oversized teenager standing right next to him, using his typical neutral expression to hide the fact that he was actually shy.
"Oh, this is my friend, Z. He's here to help me out with some stuff."
Lex didn't want to go into the details of how Z was going to scour the planet, searching for any hidden formations, trackers, spies, or anything of the sort that might have been left behind by Damien. Of course, he wasn't going to do it himself. He would direct those from the Starcloak family to do it.
"How's her treatment going? I got a lot of feathers so that should help, right?"
"It's going well. I found out why she was sleeping so much by the way. The food you fed her went a long way to restoring her physical health. She just needed to sleep more to completely absorb it. Not only is she more energetic because of it now, I believe continuously maintaining such a diet can help her speed up her fusion process. I think you literally just gave her physique the energy to function, and that is taking care of the rest."
Lex felt relieved, and was about to comment on how they could ensure her diet was excellent, when Moon reappeared.
She was wearing a pure white sundress with floral patterns on it, looking quite adorable. And was she... wearing lip gloss?
Lex was about to say something when he felt the temperature in the room change. It was very mild, and others might not have been able to feel the temperature rise so lightly, but he noticed the abnormality. Moreover, he could hear the breeze pick up speed outside the palace.
Was Moon's mood affecting the planet? Before he could come to a conclusion, Moon already began to lead Z away.
"So you want to see my planet? I don't mean to brag, I'm kind of considered a saintess here. Let me show this small town nearby. I had the residents train the squirrels to properly garden. It's a lovely sight."
"No, I, uh... I just need to check the planet for any dangerous elements."
"Oh then I should definitely keep you company. If there's something dangerous on my planet then I should definitely know about it."
Without so much as having a single proper exchange with him, his little sister just left. Was it not long ago that she was continuously just poking his face because she couldn't believe he was here. Now she couldn't even be bothered to acknowledge his existence.
He turned to look at Harry and the nurse, but the two just shrugged.
