Twenty minutes later, Matterhorn finally got dressed and sat back on the sofa.
Seeing this, Lin Ye breathed a sigh of relief. He never would've thought this would happen.
He obviously just came to explain. If it didn't work, he would have just apologized, but he never thought that Matterhorn would do that.
He really wanted to know if all the Kjerag men have some screw loose in their brain like Matterhorn; he was just simply incomprehensible.
Lin ye glances at the only girl in this dorm: Encia Sliverash. That is Pramanix's sister, the "Young mistress" by Matterhorn words. Her codename is Cliffheart.
Right now, she is sitting next to Lin Ye, looking at him with those blue eyes.
Her expression is full of curiosity. She really does look a bit like Pramanix. He would say they were about 70% similar, the remaining 30% difference mostly due to temperament.
Pramanix seems to be a quiet girl, who fits the identity of the saintess of Kjerag, while Cliffheart seems to be much more energetic.
Her posture was far less elegant and solemn than Pramanix's.
Her beautiful eyes are full of energy.
Being stared at by such a girl, Lin Ye feels a little embarrassed, so he cleared his throat and takes the initiative to greet her formally
"Hello, I believe this is our first time meeting each other. My name is-."
"Doctor Lin Ye.", Cliffheart nodded, "I know you."
"Oh, it seems that you have heard of me. Was it from Pramanix?"
"No.", she shakes her head, then takes out an identity card from her pocket and shakes it in front of Lin Ye, and says with a smile, "Because I saw this."
Lin Ye is stunned because he is his card in her hand. He subconsciously touches his pocket and finds that it is empty.
"When did you—"
"When you were not paying attention.", she didn't mean to embarrass Lin Ye, so she returns the ID card to him, "Be careful next time, it's too easy to steal from you."
Seeing this, Matterhorn says very seriously, "Young Miss, as Kjerag's—."
"Alright. Alright. Easy there, Big Bro Matterhorn", Cliffheart covers her ears and kicks her legs "Don't tell me this anymore. I just wanted to joke with Dr. Lin. I won't do it anymore."
Matterhorn says helplessly, "Young Miss, I'm closer to being your uncle"
"Oh, come on, Big Bro Matterhorn!", Cliffheart puts down her hand and says with a smile, "You look so young, just like my brother."
Although Matterhorn said, "I can't compare to the master", a smile on his face obviously betrayed his mood, and he left the topic at that.
Lin Ye was a little curious. Just what kind of man was this brother, the head of Kjerag's Karlan Commercial?
Suddenly, Cliffheart's stomach seems to growl.
Lin Ye looks at Cliffheart with a little surprise.
Cliffheart is also looking at him and then grimaces at him.
"Big Bro Matterhorn! I am very hungry!"
"If you wait, I'll make something for you."
"Yay!"
She is really a strange girl, and her personality was completely different from Pramanix's.
Are they really sisters?
Matterhorn gets up immediately. Lin Ye checks the time and feels like he should also go back.
He had already cleared up with Matterhorn.
He should hurry up and eat dinner at the cafeteria, take a break, then hurry to his training with Yato for more swordsmanship practice.
This is a daily must for him. Since there was no time to practice in Lungmen, he wanted to make up for the time he wasted after returning.
So, he prepared to retire, but before he could go, Matterhorn placed on his shoulder.
"Doctor Lin, stay and eat together with us.", Matterhorn requests.
"Um. You don't need to do that."
"Please stay.", Matterhorn says, "It just happens that I have another important thing I want to ask you for."
"Huh?", Lin Ye is stunned, "What else is it?"
"It's more complicated to say, let's talk while we eat.", Matterhorn looks at Cliffheart,
"It happens that the Young Miss is involved. So, It would be much easier to explain it."
The person in question tilts her head, and shows a puzzled look, "What?"
At Matterhorn's request, Lin Ye stays.
He also wanted to taste the Kjerag's delicacies. He had the opportunity to taste it last time, but he slipped away because of his guilty conscience. This time, he doesn't need it to do it anymore,
So, when Matterhorn was preparing dinner, he sat in the living room and chatted with Cliffheart.
"Hey, do you still have the grass you gave to my sister before?"
Cliffheart also asks the same question as Pramanix, and shows great interest, judging by how bright her eyes shine.
This made Lin Ye a little speechless.
'Maybe they are sisters after all?'
After he made sure Matterhorn wasn't looking or listening. He takes out the package of catnip and shows it to her,
"Is this it?"
"Yes! Yes!"
"This is meant for you and your sister.", Lin Ye hands it over,
He then thinks about it, and tells the truth to Cliffheart, "This thing is called catnips and it's actually for cats"
"Huh?", Cliffheart's eyes widen, "For the cat?"
"Yes.", Lin Ye nods,
"So, do you still want to eat?"
"Why wouldn't I? If a cat can eat, of course, I can eat it too"
"..."
'It's official. Kjerag people are weird.'
He still really can't understand people in this world. Especially women in this world.
After she took all of the catnips, Cliffheart's tail sways back and forth, looking very happy. If it weren't for Lin Ye by her side, Cliffheart might just open the package and eat it all.
"Thank you, Dr. Lin," Cliffheart says, "If I find something good in the future, I will definitely give it to you."
Lin Ye just gave her cheap catnips, so he doesn't want anything in return.
So, he jokes around and says, "Just don't secretly take my things again and I would be grateful."
She let out a huge smile after what he just said, "I'll keep that in mind then!"
The two of them had a blast chatting with each other. But they had to stop when Matterhorn called them for dinner.
As they are all seated, Lin Ye sees all types of delicious food on the table. His mouth started to water a bit.
"Please enjoy.", Matterhorn says.
Without missing a beat, Lin Ye dug into a steak.
"Big Bro Matterhorn, what do you want to talk about?", Cliffheart asks him.
Matterhorn goes silent for a while, and then slowly says, "Master had written, in hope that both of you go back to Kjerag"
Lin Ye didn't understand why Matterhorn's words were so important. He just takes barbecue lamb.
' I have to say that the sauce prepared by Matterhorn is very good.',Lin Ye has never tasted a sauce of this taste before.
Sweet, spicy, fragrant, and fresh, it tastes delicious as he nibbles on a lamb leg.
Then he finds that both Cliffheart and Matterhorn haven't eaten anything and both had a serious expression on their faces.
"What's wrong?", Lin Ye put down the leg of lamb, and then remembered that Matterhorn was going to discuss things with him. He said with some embarrassment, "O-Oh... I'm sorry. I had a great time chatting with Cliffheart until I forgot. It didn't help that your food looks so delicious and tastes better than I expected. Hehe..."
"I-I see.", Cliffheart looks at him with a smile on her face, "I-It's okay. We can talk while eating."
"No need for that. Let's talk first. You just said that your master has written to you?"
Lin Ye tries to remember what Matterhorn said, "You mentioned that Pramanix and Cliffheart need to go back to Kjerag, right? But didn't you tell me that Pramanix sneaked out from Kjerag? Is she willing to go back with you?"
"That's the problem.", Matterhorn sighs, "The hostile relationship between the Mistress and the master has not been resolved yet."
Before Matterhorn could continue speaking, Cliffheart interrupts him, and asks, "Why did my brother suddenly tell my sister and me to go back? Does he explain the reason?"
Lin Ye also looks at Matterhorn. He shakes his head gently, "Master didn't say it clearly, but I guess something went wrong over there. Master needs help from the Mistress.
"That's impossible!", Cliffheart suddenly stands up from her chair, and yells, "Absolutely impossible! My brother would never need help! He's so strong! So how could he need my sister's help?"
"You don't know anything about that, Young Miss.", Matterhorn slowly shakes his head.
"Although the master is indeed powerful. That doesn't mean he's invincible. It's just that he doesn't want to tell you that. There are still many people trying to overthrow or challenge the status of the master, but they were suppressed by the master at that time."
Matterhorn sighs, "Now, however, maybe something has happened.", his face is full of sadness,
"Master never asks for help. But now the situation is bad up until he needs both of you to come back. I hope I can persuade the mistress to go back. The situation must be worse than I could ever imagine."
Cliffheart grits her teeth and says, "But when I came here, my sister and I... I finally found my sister, and it was not easy for me to restore the relationship with my sister."
"I know, Young Miss, But for the sake of Kjerag, we have to do this."
Lin Ye, who is listening, feels like he shouldn't be here and sits quietly until Matterhorn looks at him and says seriously.
"Doctor Lin Ye, I sincerely hope that you can help me persuade her to go back to Kjerag with us."
