Chapter 261: Sister
"She couldn't have lost her memory, could she?"
Hearing the girl recognize her parents right away, Link flipped the barbecue, raised an eyebrow, and expressed his guess.
"Amnesia!"
Hearing this, Lieyan and Fiolaina shouted in surprise.
It's no wonder they were so surprised. The world's population is already sparse, not to mention a rare disease like amnesia.
This kind of situation is often encountered in vernacular novels. It is the first time they have seen someone with real amnesia.
"Yes, she has lost her memory. And judging from her condition, it seems that she has completely lost her memory. She even forgot who her parents are."
Link repeated, his tone firm with certainty.
As for why the girl called Lieyan and the other two her parents, Link guessed that this was probably a hippocampus effect.
Lieyan carried the girl back all the way, and Fiorina helped her change her clothes and wrapped her in a warm blanket. Even though she was still unconscious at that time, she might still be able to sense what the two did to her.
Deep in her blocked memory, she might have experienced a similar situation, so after waking up, she subconsciously regarded the two as her parents.
The two of them suddenly realized that the girl had forgotten her parents. Fiorina, with her maternal instinct aroused, could not help but hug the girl into her warm arms.
"Poor child, he even forgot his parents."
This should have been a touching scene, but coupled with the blanket the girl was wrapped in, Fiorina suddenly felt like she was hugging an oversized glutinous rice ball.
Paired with the girl's fiery red hair.
Well, it’s still filled with ketchup. (Note)
"Hmm, I'm hungry."
The girl struggled in Fiorina's arms, making a slight sound. Her face was still pale, obviously showing symptoms of weakness caused by not eating for a long time and being soaked in the stream water for a long time.
Upon hearing this, Fiorina quickly loosened her arms and turned her gaze towards Link.
"Son, is the meat ready? Bring it here."
"..."
Link looked at the barbecue in his hand that had just been grilled and brushed with a layer of honey. He hesitated for a moment, cut off a quarter of it with a knife, and handed it to Lieyan who came over to take the meat.
"Yes, this amount is probably enough. Judging from her previous attire, she doesn't look like a hunter, so she probably can't eat much."
Link glanced at the dress that was hung by the bonfire to bake and made a guess as to the girl's identity.
Not only clothes, but also prop bags and weapons. She didn't bring any of these two common hunter props, so she was obviously not a hunter.
Unfortunately, Link miscalculated.
There is a kind of person in this world whose appetite has nothing to do with whether she is a hunter or not.
When the red-haired girl opened her bloody mouth and stuffed the huge portion of grilled steak into her mouth, and then asked him expectantly for more, he knew that he would have no chance of eating tonight.
Weak, pitiful, helpless, and with amnesia, but able to eat.
These five characteristics are Link's first impression of the girl.
"Dad, let's go out and catch some prey that's big enough. We have to find a way to feed her."
Looking at the girl who was gnawing on the roasted pork elbow desperately, Link sighed slightly.
At this time, the wild boar in the corner, which was bigger than the girl, had already eaten everything. But she was obviously not full yet. Her stomach did not bulge at all, and it even made a slight gurgling sound.
This guy's appetite is even more terrifying than Huoya's.
'How on earth did she manage to eat such a large wild boar? It's unscientific.'
I have to say, this girl is quite cute. She finished all the meat on the pork elbow in just a few bites.
He licked his greasy fingertips again, looked at the big bone in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and took a tentative bite.
As a result, she hit her teeth with a "click" sound. She was immediately in so much pain that her eyes were filled with tears. She covered her mouth with her hands, tears welling up in her eyes. However, she was reluctant to give the big bone in her hand to the dog who was drooling at the side.
The nature of being a foodie is undoubtedly revealed.
Seeing this, Link took out some emergency food from his prop bag.
Fortunately, the girl was not picky about food. Even if the food she brought with her was extremely unpalatable, she ate it with gusto and her eyes lit up.
"Mmm, delicious, thank you brother."
The girl's mouth was full, but she still thanked Link vaguely.
She is quite polite.
Link looked the girl up and down. No matter how he looked at her, she was much older than him. Judging from her super-large cup figure, she was at least 26 years old, a definite queen type.
However, it is this older sister character who, because of her amnesia, calls the 18-year-old Link "brother" in a soft voice.
My dear sister, what a weird way of playing this.
"Oh, my poor child, don't worry, I will hunt enough prey to fill your stomach. Son, pick up your weapon and follow me."
Lieyan felt so distressed when he saw that the girl was eating the disgusting food she brought with her with relish.
It has been a long time since he last had a meal, but he is so hungry. He eats more than a receptionist he met in the New World.
"understood."
Link responded weakly. All the dinner went into the girl's stomach and he was still hungry.
Picking up the weapon at his feet, which he used to deal with special situations at any time, Link put the hunting bow on his back, picked up the quiver full of arrows, and followed Lieyan out of the dark cave.
Fiorina and Lin Ya were responsible for staying behind to take care of and protect the amnesiac girl's safety.
The girl seemed to notice something, stopped chewing, and looked up at Fiorina with a hint of confusion and uneasiness in her eyes.
"What's the matter, kid?"
Fiorina asked gently, stroking the girl's hair gently.
She really liked this child, her bright red hair was extremely dazzling.
When I see her, the word "flame" will rise in my heart.
The girl hesitated and asked in a low voice.
"Dad and brother...are you going to do something dangerous?"
Fiorina smiled slightly, trying to make her tone sound more relaxed.
"They are just out looking for some food, don't worry. I'm here, I will protect you."
The girl heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this, but the uneasiness in her eyes had not completely disappeared, and she was obviously worried about the safety of Link and Lieyan.
The night outside the cave was dark, the moonlight was faint, and the surrounding woods made rustling sounds in the night wind.
The owner of this area has been killed by three people. In order to hunt enough food, we must look for the territories of other monsters.
"Let's go. I wasn't idle while fishing. I found traces of the Brute Jaw Dragon. Fortunately, I have developed the habit of collecting monster remains in the New World, otherwise I would have wasted a lot of time looking for traces of prey."
As he spoke, Lieyan took out a small bottle from the prop bag on his waist, which was filled with a transparent viscous liquid.
That's the saliva left by the Savage Jaw Dragon.
It is easy to deal with if there are monster remnants, and the task of finding monsters can be left to the guide insects.
After releasing the guide insects, tiny dots of fireflies immediately illuminated the surrounding environment.
The light green glow looked like fireflies in the night, floating lightly beside Link and Lieyan.
Seeing this, Link frowned slightly. Although the guide insects provided valuable vision at night, the faint traces of light they left were particularly eye-catching in the darkness, like a guiding light in the night, which could easily expose their whereabouts.
Under the cover of night, dangers lurk everywhere.
Some nocturnal monsters are born with the instinct to hunt in the dark. They are particularly sensitive to luminous creatures and often use the cover of night to approach their prey silently and then launch a fatal attack.
Among them, the most famous is the Swift Dragon.
Link silently followed the guidance of the guide insect with Lieyan, traveling through the dense forest, searching for the nest of the Brutejaw.
Hunting at night is undoubtedly a great challenge for hunters.
Unlike those monsters that thrive in the dark, humans have extremely limited vision at night and can only rely on the faint moonlight and keen hearing to perceive their surroundings.
Fortunately, Link has a big dad to guide him. With the strength of Flame, even if he really encounters a Swift Dragon, in front of the Master Hunter, this monster with a danger level of five stars can only turn into a well-behaved cat and let him bully at will.
The two of them walked forward without stopping, and Link tried his best to have dinner as soon as possible.
"Thinking about it, I haven't eaten the meat of a Brute Jaw Dragon yet. It should taste better than a giant wild boar."
Touching his belly, Link was thoughtful and full of anticipation for the meat of the Barbarian Jaw Dragon.
(bean paste/black pepper for black hair, salad/honey mustard for blonde hair, pepper/tomato for red hair, blue...)
(Remembering when I was exploring the world, I was attacked by a Savage Jaw Chinchilla twice. The third time I ran over, it breathed fire through a tree and killed me instantly. Instantly, damn.)
