He was still holding the Undead Corpse King’s hand.


    That was the position he had been assuming ever since they exited the tomb of the King of Medicine.


    The phrase ‘unbearable pain’ was the best way to describe his current state.

    “Let’s go!”


    Everyone resumed their journey after Nash issued the order.


    After setting out, they traveled non-stop for four days straight.


    They traveled by day and also by night with the help of torches.


    They drank from the mountain springs when they got thirsty and killed animals not under protection


    when they got hungry.


    The non-stop journey exhausted them thoroughly.


    However, they managed to return to Madam Lunaris’ shop before sunset on the fourth day.


    “Madam Lunaris… please prepare us an entire table’s worth of food… Please be generous with the


    seasonings…”


    Nico was so excited that he began calling out to Madam Lunaris right after they entered the courtyard.


    After four days of having nothing but nd food, he felt like his tongue was going to fall from his mouth.


    Derek said weakly, “Madam Lunaris… Save me…


    He turned and showed his butt to Madam Lunaris after he finished his sentence.


    Madam Lunaris was having tea at the table.


    After she saw the hand sticking out from Derek’s bottom, she smiled and asked, “Does it feel good,


    young man?”


    Good?


    How the hell could it feel good?!


    He was already very lucky that he had not died during the journey, and she still had the gall to ask him


    if it felt good?!


    Derek cursed to himself inwardly, but all he dared to do was pout and say, “Please, Madam Lunaris…


    Please save me… It feels like my arm is about to rust!”


    Madam Lunaris picked up her wine ss from the table and upended its contents.


    The winended on the dismembered hand, which began smoking.


    All sorts of expressions appeared on Derek’s face as the hand began waggling.


    With a st, the dismembered handnded on the ground.


    Both the index and middle fingers were covered in blood.


    Derek’s legs gave out as he copsed to the ground.


    He had lost all feeling in his arm.


    However, it felt so wonderful to have this weight taken off of him.


    “Number Six… Help him disinfect his intestines…”


    Madam Lunaris turned and yelled toward the kitchen.


    A plump man who was wearing an apron and prepping food turned to look at Derek.


    He shed his knife against the pig intestinesid on top of the chopping block.


    Derek felt his heartbeat quicken.


    Disinfect his intestines?


    How were they going to do that?


    The plump man made his way over to Derek and swung him into his arms.


    Nico burst outughing. “Sir, please be careful. This is Derek’s first experience!”


    “Stop cracking jokes at my expense!” Derek yelled in indignance.


    He could feel blood seeping from his bottom whenever he tried to exert even the slightest bit of


    strength.


    He hurriedly tightened his sphincter muscles and fell silent.


    Madam Lunaris looked at the withered hand on the ground and asked, “This is excellent stuff. Are you


    sure you don’t want it?”


    She looked up at everyone else around her.


    “Who the hell would want something like this? I’d already be dead if I hadn’t arrived in the nick of time!”


    Finn shook his head, unsure if he should smile orugh.


    Melody and Heidi also had the same reactions. They had even backed away so much they were


    standing behind Nash now.


    “Would you like it, Ken?” Nash asked abruptly as he turned to speak to Ken.


    “Nash… is this something that can be kept?” Finn asked as he hunched his shoulders.


    Finn was one of his disciples, and he did not want his future disciples to carry the Undead Corpse


    King’s dismembered hand in their bags.


    Nash smiled. “It’s indeed something that would be wonderful to own. You could even treat it as a pet if


    you can handle it!” it!”
