Survival Guide After Accidentally Kissing a Demon - Chapter 292

Chapter 292

He poured the thick red liquid evenly over the salad, then tipped the rest into an empty glass.

Beili guessed it was a sauce made from blood.

Looking at that vivid, viscous red liquid, Beili was already certain it had been made from blood.

She only did not know what method he had used. She was sitting right across from Doctor Cassius, close enough to reach him, yet she could not smell the slightest hint of blood.

Beili lowered her head and quietly began eating the lobster cream pasta on her plate.

“Doctor Cassius-”

After a few bites, she could not help asking softly, “Removing the smell of blood must be very complicated, right?”

At her words, Cassius lifted his head.

A gentle smile surfaced in his emerald eyes. “When I’m eating alone, it doesn’t really matter. But if I’m eating outside, it’s more convenient to bring this kind of deodorized blood sauce. Many people can’t stand the smell of blood…”

He was explaining, but before he could finish, the girl interrupted him.

“I can accept it.”

A trace of surprise immediately crossed those emerald eyes.

“Miss Bartholomew, what did you just say?”

“I said I can accept the smell of blood.”

Beili held her fork, twirled a bit of cream pasta on her plate, and repeated calmly, “So next time, you can use blood in its original form, Doctor Cassius.”

As though he had heard something that pleased him, his emerald eyes brightened slightly.

“All right, Miss Bartholomew.”

He nodded lightly with a smile.

A while later.

Once Beili was full and set down her fork, she realized the restaurant on Lottia Island did not provide napkins.

It was not surprising. The shops on Lottia Island were all fairly simple in style, nowhere near as formal as the restaurants in other Towns.

Beili was about to take a compact mirror from her Spatial Bracelet and check whether anything had gotten on her face.

Someone had already taken out a white handkerchief he carried with him. Holding it lightly, he gently wiped the cream sauce from the corner of her lips.

At the same time,

it was as if a gaze had fallen on them.

The noon sun was rather harsh.

Yet when the sea breeze blew over, it carried an unexpected chill.

Beili paused.

Then she raised her hand and took the handkerchief, wiping her mouth as she thanked him. “Thank you, but next time, I’ll do it myself.”

Cassius’s emerald pupils stilled for two seconds. Then, as if he had guessed something, they dimmed again.

He lowered his lashes slightly, hiding that trace of gloom in his eyes.

“All right, Miss Bartholomew.”

…

After eating their fill, of course it was time to get down to business.

Beili’s purpose for this trip was to find a magical item suitable for hiding the Black Lamb.

Of course, she had tried the Spatial Bracelet.

The first thing she had tried was the Spatial Bracelet.

However, the sleeping Black Lamb was not only Ashera’s true body after Beast Transformation; it also carried an enormous Dream Cage.

So the Spatial Bracelet Mrs. Constance had bought for her simply could not hold it.

Even after she emptied out everything inside.

While she was struggling with the problem, Beili thought of Doctor Cassius.

Beili had once seen with her own eyes the Magic Space he had created to store corpses.

A Magic Space like the venue for the closing Hunt Banquet was said to require several Mage from three kingdoms working together for more than a year to create.

Doctor Cassius could do it on his own.

Although his was smaller in scale, for Beili, as long as it could store the Black Lamb, that was enough.

However, Beili did not want to keep the Black Lamb for a long time in some place she could not check on frequently.

What if someone, while she was away, somehow stumbled into it by accident…

Just like Renee and Lance had.

So the best option was to shrink a Magic Space into some kind of item.

That way, she could carry it with her.

With that plan in mind, Beili brought Doctor Cassius to Lottia Island on Rest Day.

She wanted him to help her look around Lottia Island and see whether there was any item that could fulfill this wish of hers.

On the other side,

when he heard her request, the blond, green-eyed Cassius gave her a gentle smile and said, “At present, there probably isn’t a single item shop capable of making the kind of magical item Miss Bartholomew just described. Not even in Nauze Kingdom.”

The disappointment in her red eyes became visible to the naked eye.

She had been indulging in wishful thinking.

“All right…”

Beili suppressed her emotions and nodded. She was just about to say a few casual words as if nothing had happened, then naturally suggest that they return to Holy Island Academy.

Immediately after, she heard Cassius add in a gentle voice, “If Miss Bartholomew trusts me, you can leave this matter to me.”

“Aside from healing magic, I’ve also done some research into space magic.”

That was what he said.
