Chapter 880 - The Princess Stuck
Lory took a deep breath then she gathered all the light in her palm and reduced it to the size of a firefly then she let the small light fly into the hole, Lory tied her hair into a bun so it didn't get in her way. Before she enter Lory took a very deep breath, she stare into the holes and gritted her teeth 'here goes nothing!' Lory pushed herself into the hole, as expected she didn't like it.
as she crawl with her arms the soil stain her clothes and the dirt from above fell on his face as she move, Lory spat the dirt that landed on her mouth 'Puih – puih, bah!'
[Lory, how are you?] Girsha who was still on alert checked her condition.
[Not good!] Lory grumbled.
Girsha's expression got tense instantly [What's wrong?]
[I crawled into a dirty little hole, now all my hair covers with dirt! Gosh, it hit my eye too!] Lory cursed and complained incessantly.
[Why are you in the pit…again?] Girsha recalled the incident in the ancient tomb and also what happened in the past when Lory explored the dungeons in Verrion.
Lory rolled her eyes exasperatedly, is not like she doing it for fun, alright! Lory pushed her body faster while lowering her head to avoid the ground above her crumbling even more [I have no choice this is the only way and I can run around outside after what I did to Zi Quan Mei, I bet they all looking for me now!] Lory feel wronged while complaining unexpectedly her movement being blocked by protruding root [Oh my god! Now!] Lory shouted angrily.
[What happened, Girl?] Girsha's head jerked slightly at Lory's scream.
"Is Lory all right?" Zhao Li Xin who has moved closer near the temple complex temple with Girsha was waiting for Lory's sign so they could reach Lory's place quickly, however, Zhao Li Xin saw Girsha's eyes change with excitement so she guessed Girsha was talking to Lory again so he asked.
"Lory is fine, she just crawled in the hole as we speak?" Girsha comfort the worrywart boy.
Zhao Li Xin frowned in confusion, "Why is she crawling in the hole?"
"I don't know, maybe it's her hobby? that girl always goes into whatever hole she finds," said Girsha carelessly, but she forgot the connection that was still there so Lory could hear her and she reprimanded her harshly.
"Hey, this is not my hobby and I don't go into every hole I can find, stop telling my husband ridiculous things, and that sounds disgusting!" Lory didn't know why Girsha make her sound lewd.
In the midst of her anger suddenly Lory's movements stopped 'Oh sh*t!' Lory saw over her shoulder and her butt was caught by the protruding roots even though half of her body successfully through..
"Misstress, are you all right?" Bai Zi's little head peeked out from outside.
Lory who felt embarrassed answer with a forced happy voice "I'm fine~!"
"Okay, I'll check the situation around first!" Bai Zi didn't feel anything wrong so he make himself useful.
"You do that!" Lory gave another cheerful answer while trying to wiggle herself out.
[Lory, are you out yet?] Girsha guessed Lory should come out of the hole by now.
[In a second...] her voice sounds troubled.
[…..] Hearing Lory's grumbling, Girsha became suspicious.
meanwhile, Lory desperately tried to squeeze out from the narrow hole[Come on! hhgg…Oh, bugger!] Lory's face becomes red after a failed attempt, what should she do now, she can't move?
[Lory….are you stuck?] Girsha guessed it.
[NO! Lory denied.
The bird that had spent years watching Lory grow up easily heard the oddness in Lory's voice [Are you sure?]
[Of course, I'm sure! why do you keep asking, I will be out soon! Stop asking!] Lory who felt caught became more and more embarrassed and subconsciously became angry to hide her embarrassment.
[Why are you so defensive?] Girsha was now sure she was stuck.
[I AM NOT!] Lory exclaimed.
[Why is your voice so high, you're lying aren't you!] Girsha is one hundred percent sure that Lory is stuck and the bird feels worried, upset, and a little bit amused [Dammit Lory! I told you to cut the sweet and eat more vegetables now you got stuck because you are too fat!] Girsha cruelly scolded her.
Lory who always has the determination to live a healthier life every year but never implements it feels very ashamed still, just like every normal person in the world she chooses to live in denial, [Hey, I'm not stuck! I just held back, okay! it's because of that damn root, this got nothing to with my body!]
There's no way Girsha would believe it, [It's because you're fat as* that you got stuck there, what else other reason? Are you kidding me!]
[Are you starting to shame my body, now! How could you!] Lory felt terribly wronged.
"What's wrong with Lory, is she hurt?" Zhao Li Xin saw Girsha narrow his green rounded eyes Zhao Li Xin thought there something happen with Lory so he ask anxiously.
But Girsha snort in annoyance "No she's fine, she only got her fat as* stuck in the hole and she can't get out!"
Zhao Li Xin was dumbfounded but then he pinched his chin and contemplate then Zhao Li Xin gave a thoughtful nod and say: "Lory's bottom indeed becomes more rounded lately, maybe because of the cold weather she ate more this year" Zhao Li Xin didn't mean harm he only gave an honest answer.
Girsha snickered then he called Lory again [Hey, even your husband agrees you have become more round lately so don't try to deny it!" Girsha mocks Lory mercilessly, since long ago Girsha never understand why she likes to eat sweets so much?
Lory was used to being teased by Girsha but now Zhao Li Xin also joined in too? how could she not be sad, but then the sadness quickly turns to anger "Tell my husband, if he keeps talking like that, he won't have a round wife after this!" Lory spite angrily
Girsha snorted and Zhao Li Xin worriedly asked, "What did Lory say?"
"He mad at you now!" Girsha answered bluntly.
Zhao Li Xin's face stiffened "Oh..."
In the meantime, Lory who was still 'held up' was hurt physically and mentally, she couldn't wait to get out so she was twirling her body left and right while pulling herself with all her might from unfortunately the protruding root didn't seem to budge. Lory finally lost all of her patients, he clenched her jaw then whisper "wind blade!"
Bai Zi started with a loud banging sound that led to where Lory was, feeling anxious Bai Zi ran back to Lory, Bai Zi was dumbfounded by the amount of dust that seeped into the air and Bai Zi shouted "Mistress, are you okay? Mistress!", Bai Zi was afraid something would happen to Lory, he had already failed to protect one master so he couldn't afford to lose another important person.
"Mistress!" Bai Zi screamed in panic.
Not long after Bai Zi heard a coughing sound, then slowly a figure emerged from the thick dust while he covered his mouth and nose with his ladder while his other hand fanned the dust around him, "Cough – cough, I'm fine… cough! " Lory staggered a bit she didn't think she would collapse the whole hole and she almost buried herself as a result now her whole body is brown from being covered in dirt.
"Mistress, what happened?" Bai Zi didn't know how the hole could suddenly collapse.
"I don't know, the hole might have been too fragile due to the many tree roots going through it and when it went through the soil structure couldn't hold it in that's why it crumbled" the good princess lied through her teeth without blushing but even if she did her face was too dirty to know that she was actually blushing.
