Part Two - New World - Chapter [057]

After everything settled down, Arslan placed on some pants and I started treating the wounds on his back. 

I made a slime like substance with aloe Vera plants we had in our inventory. 

Apollo mentioned he needed some time to talk to me. 

But we had another problem we needed food and fast.

Arslan stomach actually growled.

We hadn't had any food in over 72 hours. 

So we were in dire need of a meal.

"We should just go downstairs -" I trailed off. We had found recluse in an inn that still had their energy crystal running. Which was keeping away the miasma and creating a temporary safe heaven for the both of us.

"There's not going to by anyone there," Arslan said plainly.

"Right - I forgot - it's all evacuated - our best bet would be emergency services," I said as the slime substance healed Arslan. I made sure to heat in in my hands before applying.

For some reason that bath had left me with colorful splashes all around my wardrobe. Arslan insisted I re-did his roots.

As in apply bleaching chemical to his hair.

His roots were showing after all. 

The color of his roots was this deep beautiful caramel mocha gingerbread color.

"Why do you color your hair anyway?" I asked. 

"What?" He responded. I know I stomeimtes go 0 to a 100 with him. 

"I'm just curious," 

"Ummm…" he seemed to change. Like into another facet of himself. 

"It's kinda a long story," he looked back at me and smiled, closed his eyes. 

"Is it something significant?" I asked.

"You could say that -" he chuckled. I could tell he was being coy - so I sort of dropped it. 

"Okay - anyway - what are we gonna do about food?" I said putting my hands on my hips. Finally applying all the slime unto his back.

"Good as new!"
