Chapter 1795 Teaching Davin A Lesson
After cleaning the room, Davin took a few deep breaths and admired the shiny floor he had wiped. It was so shiny that people could use it as a mirror. I think I did a pretty good job! I never thought I could do chores so well. Man, I really worked hard to get the antidote.
Seeing him come out of the room, Frida promptly ordered him to clean her room next.
Davin, still afraid that speaking would reveal his disguise, remained silent and nodded before entering her room.
Once he arrived, he did the same thing over again, but with the intensity and speed of a tornado. He exited the room with heavy breaths when he was done and attempted to return to Elias’ room so he could resume his search for the antidote.
However, little did he expect to hear Frida say, “You’re done cleaning the room, but what about the kitchen?”
Kitchen? Davin was stunned.
Just as he was wondering why the Guardians of Daemonic Mount had to do all those chores, Shermaine gave another order. “Oh yeah, don’t forget the cave behind the kitchen too. You haven’t cleaned there yet. The wood inside there needs to be moved to another cave and then…”
Davin felt as though his head was about to explode. Why are there so many errands? Even if I work until tomorrow morning, I doubt I can finish all these chores! Besides, why do these need to be done right now? In the middle of the night? Can’t this be done during the day? I can’t keep doing this. Hopefully, this will work…
He proceeded to make a gesture that indicated it was time for him to sleep before pointing at the dark sky outside and drawing a big circle to symbolize the sun.
The message he wanted to convey was that it was time for him to sleep since it was the middle of the night already and that he would continue tomorrow.
Obviously, Shermaine and Frida understood what he was saying, but they wanted to tease him and prevent him from looking for the antidote in Elias’ room.
“What are you gesturing at?” Shermaine pretended not to understand.
Frida answered, “Elias is trying to say that the two of us should go to sleep and that he’s a big man who isn’t afraid of the dark. Once tomorrow morning arrives, he’ll definitely finish up all the chores and clean the place spotless.”
“Is that so?”
The two women stared at Davin deliberately.
No! No! He waved his hands in a panic.
“Oh? You’re saying you truly mean it?”
“I told you that’s what he meant! He’s always been a very hardworking person.”
The two of them went back and forth.
Davin was dumbfounded. Are you two blind? I’m shaking my head and waving my hands here! I’m clearly telling you that what you’re saying is wrong! Wrong!
“Why do you look so agitated, Elias? Do you have something you want to say?”
“If you want to say something, then say it!”
“Yeah! Say it!”
“Say it!”
“Say it!”
They continued to pressure Davin and force him to speak.
Nevertheless, Davin still wasn’t willing to utter a word because if his disguise was seen through, he might not be able to keep his life.
“If you don’t want to say anything, it means you agree to it! Go and do the chores now!”
“That’s right! Go!”
The women glared at him.
Davin sighed in his heart. I can’t complain right now. It’s more important to stay alive. This is fine. I’m a tough man! I can handle this!
He turned around and headed for the cave behind.
Once they were sure he was out of earshot, they laughed out loud.
“He has some nerves to impersonate Elias to steal the antidote! This should teach him a lesson.”
“That’s right! The balls on this guy… But I think this lesson is not harsh enough. Making him do chores probably won’t achieve the effect we want. When he comes back, we’ll give him a taste of Gale’s needles!”
“That’s a great idea!”
The two of them continued to discuss how to deal with Davin gleefully.
