Although she would slip into coma from time to time, Eleanor was staying awake for longer and longer periods of time.
It can be said that her body is indeed recovering rapidly.
"You're awake," Ask said, "little girl..."
"My path is not narrow!" Eleanor replied angrily.
Although she didn't understand what this sentence meant, she had had enough of being ridiculed every time she woke up.
"And you said you didn't go narrow." Ask said disdainfully, "Why else are you on my back?"
Eleanor: …
It’s so annoying that I can’t refute him!
Despite several days of communication and arguments, Ask still did not approve of her actions, sneered at her act of saving those imperial soldiers and knights, and gave her the ugly title of "white left".
By the way, what is white left
In the world of "A Song of Iron and Fire", most countries are monarchical dictatorships, and there is no concept of left and right. Therefore, Eleanor does not know what "white left" is, but she can hear the contempt in Ask's tone, and can guess that the general meaning is "unrealistic idealist."
This comment made her feel extremely angry and frustrated, and every time she thought about it, she wanted to have a big fight with Ask.
However, another undeniable fact is that it was indeed she who left the team without permission and took the risk to assassinate the emperor alone, causing unnecessary trouble for everyone and now making herself paralyzed and unable to move, turning herself into a big burden.
Ask rescued her at great risk, took her on the run, and took care of her food, clothing, and daily life. Although it's a bit shameful, he was indeed taking care of her in all aspects...
Therefore, she had no reason to blame Ask.
Thinking of this, Eleanor's attitude softened again.
"Where are we going? How long will it take?" She leaned on Ask's shoulder and asked in a low voice.
"To Florence," replied Ask. "We should be there by tomorrow morning."
"Where's the Fantasy Dragon?"
"I've set a little trap for him," said Ask. "If it goes well, he'll be thrown off by us and never find us again."
"And if it doesn't go well?" asked Eleanor.
"By the time he finds out, we should have reached Florence," said Ask.
"So soon?" murmured Eleanor.
"Fast? Do you know how long we have been walking?" Ask asked without turning his head, "How many more days do you think we will have to walk?"
Eleanor was silent.
"Why, do you feel wronged again?" Ask asked after a while.
"No," Eleanor replied in a low voice, "I was just afraid you'd get tired from walking so fast."
"Not confident about your weight?" Ask said.
"How can you discuss a lady's weight with her?" Eleanor rolled her eyes at her and whispered, "Besides, my weight is considered light in the team."
"That's impossible." Ask said, "There are so many underage girls in our team..."
"Well, I mean among people of similar age." Eleanor coughed, looked at the gradually darkening sky around them, and changed the subject, "We have been walking for so long, let's take a break."
