Chapter 638: 98. Sli Species
“What’s wrong, are you feeling uncomfortable?”
“Nothing nothing nothing nothing nothing…”
Fisher saw Valentina’s face flush red, and she was continuously covering her mouth while breathing in short gasps. He thought she was feeling unwell, so he spoke up.
Unexpectedly, just as she looked up, she saw Fisher so close to her. Terrified, she shrank back into a corner of her wheelchair, as if facing so fearso flood or fierce beast.
Her pale silver eyes seed a bit elusive. The Fisher in front of her, dressed in a white shirt, felt to her eyes like a hot iron, too painful to keep looking at. Yet, just the sight of his sturdy body made Valentina recall the muscular lines she had seen amidst the mist, and the warmth that emanated from his body.
Valentina covered her heated cheeks with her cold hands, bowing her head, pondering sothing. Fisher frowned, unsure if it was the onset of her genetic disease, he kindly squatted down and prepared to move closer. However, Valentina stretched out her hand weakly saying,
“Don’t… don’t co closer…”
“…Okay, I’ll stay right here.”
Fisher watched Valentina, who seed almost ready to crawl further into the corner of her wheelchair. Not only was her face flushed, but her voice was also frighteningly soft. To avoid further upsetting her, he could only raise his hands to show he ant no harm.
Valentina took several deep breaths, waiting for her overloaded brain to regain oxygen before she peeked through her fingers at Fisher in front of her. Seeing his calm expression, nothing like the ambiguous scene from before, gave Valentina a great sense of security. She finally managed to straighten up a bit, though her face was still flushed, and her eyes remained evasive.
“Now can you tell what you saw in the Ice just now?”
“…A hallucination.”
After several seconds, Valentina spoke in a low voice.
“Hallucination? Can you describe it? What you saw might…”
“I can’t describe it! Absolutely, absolutely can’t describe it!”
Hearing Fisher ask her to describe it, her face turned red again, and she frantically rubbed the ring on her hand while insisting firmly. This piqued Fisher’s curiosity about what Valentina had seen in the Ice. Though since she wasn’t forthcoming, he could only share the information he knew with her,
“It’s alright if you don’t want to say. The key point isn’t that; it’s that you could see images in the Ice… You are from the Northern Realm, you should know about the various myths surrounding the Phoenix Species, including that they supposedly have the ability to see the future… I’m saying, this ability is real, though not as omnipotent as in the myths, but they can indeed see into a vague future.”
Fisher looked at Valentina and raised one finger,
“Phoenix Species have been observing the Ice since childhood, and their ability to foresee the future cos from this. Legend has it that they led the Northern Realm to repel powerful enemies from other lands. The enemy was very difficult to deal with, and their victory was closely related to this ability.”
“Prophecy? Wait, you an…”
From what Fisher just said, Valentina suddenly caught a crucial piece of information—the vision she had seen in the Ice was not just a hallucination but could possibly be a prophecy that only Phoenix Species could see!
Does it an that what she saw… that kind of event is sothing that will happen in the future, and perhaps she too has the bloodline of the Phoenix Species in her, which is why she could sense the Frost Snow Phoenix Tree and the use of Moon Princess? Then, what about the genetic disease in her family? Could it also be related to her bloodline?
Her face flushed, she looked at Fisher in front of her and rubbed her temples with so headache. She first temporarily put aside the possible shaful event from the future, then asked,
“So you an, inside , there could very well be a Phoenix Species bloodline.”
“It’s just a guess, but many of your symptoms match up, including what you’ve told before… I still don’t understand how your genetic disease works. Logically speaking, even if your body contains the bloodline of the Phoenix Species, it shouldn’t manifest in such a burdenso way.”
Valentina was not only disabled in her legs but also apparently bore traces of the so-called genetic disease. The offspring of the Phoenix Species born mixed shouldn’t be this unstable. Moreover, her family had historical instances of the sa. Her condition seed more like being under so kind of curse… a curse nad “bloodline”…
“Miss Valentina, determining whether you have the Phoenix Species bloodline should start from the genetic disease you have. Can I examine the deformity you’ve ntioned before? It might reveal…”
“Weirdo!”
Fisher’s words ca to an abrupt halt, as he looked at Valentina in front of him, who suddenly acted as if she had heard sothing offensive. She pursed her lips and covered her body with her hands, her eyes brimming red as she looked at him, as if he were trying to bully her, making Fisher’s expression turn deadpan.
No, what did he do to her? It seed like ever since she saw the Ice, her state had been a bit off, not only wary of him but her face also constantly flushed…
