Chapter 80: Give You Some Encouragement
Chapter 80: Give You Some Encouragement
"Let's call it a day. I'm satisfied. Let's continue tomorrow. I'm waiting for you to defeat me!"
Charlotte didn't forget to give him some encouragement and expectation as they walked back together.
"Practicing martial arts is helpful for killing zombies. Weapons are an extension of the limbs. In the past, your martial skills were all used for weapons. So the better your martial arts skills, the more adept you'll be with weapons..." They chatted as they returned to the villa.
Most of the lights inside were dimmed.
Bella and Daisy were already asleep.
Elijah felt a bit disappointed that he missed seeing the two of them in their swimsuits.
Turning his attention to Charlotte, Elijah noticed her half-naked upper body covered in sand, obscuring her skin and the beautiful scenery of the surroundings.
Elijah felt even more regretful.
"With all that sand on you, all dirty, shall I help you wash it off?" Charlotte rolled her eyes and didn't respond, returning to her room.
"It would be so nice if you didn't have to do it yourself!" Elijah muttered.
Then he wondered, where would he sleep?
He remembered his luggage was placed in the first room on the left on the second floor.
But sleeping alone seemed boring. However, looking at his dirty clothes, he decided to return to his room first and freshen up.
After entering the bathroom and looking at himself in the mirror, Elijah realized how beaten up he was.
His face, hands, legs, and body were bruised.
Under the protection of Abigail's defensive abilities, being beaten up like this showed that Charlotte had gone all out.
But it was all worth it.
Elijah felt that not only had his combat experience improved, but even his physical fitness had also increased, despite not practicing any physical training.
Overall, it was a good thing.
After a simple wash, Elijah changed into fresh clothes and walked out of the room.
He first went to the room furthest to the west and tried the doorknob. It didn't budge.
"Huh? Why did Bella lock the door? That's not a good habit!" He sighed and returned to the next room, successfully entering.
The air conditioner was on inside, and Daisy was lying quietly on the bed, already asleep, still in her dominant sleeping position.
Elijah pushed her legs inwards and climbed into bed, embracing her.
Her smooth, cool skin felt very comfortable in his arms.
"Mmm..." Daisy woke up, her eyes blurry as she saw Elijah, pouting.
"Big Radish!"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Aren't you with Sister Charlotte? I even saw you two taking off your clothes and rolling around on the beach!"
"Uh, we were just sparring! Look at how she beat me up!" Elijah pointed to the bruises on his face.
"Hmph! Serves you right!" Daisy said, poking him with her finger.
"Ouch..."
"Does it hurt a lot?"
It didn't really hurt much, but when you get poked, it hurts even if it didn't hurt before! Elijah didn't say anything, pretending to be pitiful.
"Then let me blow on it for you!" Daisy's rosy lips approached his face and gently blew on it.
The warm wind blew across his cheeks, carrying a sweet scent. It tickled.
"How's that? Feeling better?" Daisy asked.
"Much better, but it still hurts here!" Elijah pointed to another spot.
Only then did Daisy notice the bruises all over his body.
"Oh! Sister Charlotte was so harsh. Ask her to go easy tomorrow..."
"Hmm?" Realizing she misspoke, Daisy glanced aside.
"Um... Well, Charlotte mentioned that she wanted to find an opportunity to spar with you, and I advised her to go easy on you... I didn't expect that you two, in the midst of sparring, would end up rolling around on the beach!" Daisy explained confidently.
Elijah couldn't help but laugh at the situation, understanding what happened.
"Look at how she beat me up so badly, you owe me some compensation!" Elijah joked.
"Then let me blow on it again!" Daisy offered.
"Blow on here!" Elijah pointed to his mouth.
"You see, it's swollen!" Daisy examined closely and indeed found a bit of swelling and a tiny wound, which Elijah actually got from falling down.
"Alright then..." Daisy leaned close to his mouth and gently blew on it.
Elijah closed his eyes and enjoyed the moment, eventually leaning in closer.
Day 11 of the apocalypse! Early in the morning! After a beneficial activity for both body and mind, Elijah and Daisy finished freshening up and walked out of their room.
Outside, it was already bright. Bella was busy in the kitchen, and Hannah seemed to have arrived at some point and was helping her with breakfast.
"Morning, Bella, Sister Hannah!" Elijah greeted.
"Morning!"
"Why are you up so late today? Not like you!" Bella teased.
Daisy blushed slightly and glanced at Elijah. It was all because of this guy, making her practice dance basics so early in the morning.
"Where are Charlotte and Fiona?" Elijah changed the subject.
"They went for morning exercises early. Since Hannah is helping me with breakfast, they didn't join!" Elijah felt relieved upon hearing this.
He stepped out of the villa and indeed saw several women practicing martial arts at the training spot from yesterday.
This made Elijah feel a bit ashamed. Since advancing to Tier 2, had he been neglecting exercise?
No, he did morning exercises every day!
It was quite tiring! And at night, he had to be Charlotte's punching bag!
Thinking this, his guilt dissipated.
He began observing the results of the women's exercises.
They were quite impressive, elegant and pleasing to the eye.
But their clothes were somewhat obstructive.
Yesterday, he learned that Fiona and the others didn't have suitable clothes for exercise, so Charlotte lent them some of hers.
However, Charlotte was tall and broad-framed, and the clothes immediately concealed their beautiful figures.
Swimsuits, yoga clothes, they must be prepared.
Fiona and the others needed spare clothes, and they also needed women's underwear, casual wear, sanitary pads... Various needed supplies flashed through Elijah's mind, giving him a headache.
Having so many women around was indeed troublesome!
If they were men, they'd only need two sets of clothes.
There weren't so many requirements in the apocalypse.
But women were different, especially his women.
Breakfast was quickly prepared, and the women who had gone outside to exercise were called back.
Everyone happily ate breakfast together.
After a brief rest, Elijah and Daisy prepared to go out to collect supplies. They left everything on the island to Fiona and Charlotte.
"Alright, just do what you need to do. Don't worry about us. We'll try to come back in the evening, but if we don't, don't worry, we'll be back at the latest by tomorrow," Elijah instructed.
Then, bidding farewell to the women, Elijah and Daisy boarded the transport vehicle with Abigail and the mutant female zombie and headed towards the island.
Passing by the service area, Gabriel and Emily were practicing martial arts. They ran over when they saw Elijah.
"Big brother, are you going out?"
"Yeah, Daisy and I are going to the nearby mall to collect supplies. You guys take care of things here!"
"Got it, you guys be careful!" experience mvle,mp|y|r
The transport vehicle continued on.
There weren't many zombies near the service area, as Fiona had led the women and Gabriel's group to clear them out before Elijah and Daisy arrived yesterday.
Elijah drove smoothly until they reached the coastal road, where they encountered some zombies.
"We need to clear the way from here to the supermarket gradually, so it's easier to transport supplies back later."
"Elijah, should I drive?"
