"He's in the dungeon now. You only slept for three days, and you're already this weak?" Kagura frowned at Xu Zhiqiu's poor condition, disbelief in her red eyes.
"Kagura, could you find me something to eat? Thank you."
Seeing Xu Zhiqiu like this, Kagura agreed to help. "All right. Sit down first. I'll go outside and find you something." She helped Xu Zhiqiu sit on the floor against the wall, then went out.
Xu Zhiqiu leaned against the wall, too weak to say another word. All she could do now was hold on and hope Kagura would hurry back with food.
"Would you like some water?" an ethereal voice asked.
Xu Zhiqiu looked up at the speaker.
Kanna held a bowl of water.
Xu Zhiqiu reached out and took it. "Thank you, Kanna."
After drinking the bowl of water, Xu Zhiqiu felt considerably better. She pulled her clothes closed around herself and stretched her legs slightly forward.
Seeing that Xu Zhiqiu had improved a little, Kanna took the empty bowl and said, "Naraku told Kagura and me not to disturb you. We thought you were giving Naraku the cold shoulder, so we left you alone. He's in the dungeon now and doesn't know what condition you're in."
They had assumed Xu Zhiqiu was angry and didn't want to come out, so they hadn't disturbed her. But judging by her condition, there seemed to be more to it than anger.
Xu Zhiqiu took a few breaths and rubbed her numb forehead. "I don't know what's been going on lately. I'm always sleepy."
After her last little disagreement with Naraku, she had lain down in bed to sleep. She hadn't expected to wake up feeling as though her entire body had been hollowed out.
This felt like a very bad omen. Was
