The Tiny Lina Maya

Chapter 37 - Don't Be Afraid

As Lina received the meat Saga gave her, she noticed that Saga's fingers were blistering.

"It looks like Saga's finger was unintentionally burned by the fire, while she was grilling a barbecue."

"Your hands.."

Saga stared at his fingertips, then said with a flat expression, "Watered hot water."

His tone was extremely bland, as if he had not been doused in hot water. And he doesn't care about it at all.

"Is it painful?" Lina asked.

"I don't feel anything."

Saga then sat away from the fire. He tore the remaining raw meat into pieces, stuffed it into his mouth and ate it casually.

Lina who was staring at Saga was eating such raw meat and with her flat facial expression, felt a little goosebumps, "Didn't you like eating cooked meat?"

"I don't like hot things." Answer Saga.

Then subconsciously, Lina stared towards the burning fire, "The fire is also hot.."

"I don't like fire either." Answer Saga again.

"Aren't you just grilling meat on fire?"

Then Saga glanced at Lina with her flat expression, "Yes. Because you want to eat cooked meat."

Because the little girl wanted to eat cooked meat, so she could resist the fear of fire and roast it.

Hearing that, made Lina slightly moved her heart.

He suddenly felt that this cold-looking man in front of him, was not as cold as what he showed. Maybe he's just not good at expressing himself.

Lina had already finished the grilled meat that was in her hands and got up from where she was sitting, then walked towards the entrance of the cave.

Immediately, the saga looked at him and asked, "Where are you going?"

Lina turned her body around and showed her two palms filled with meat oil to him, "I'll wash my hands." Then Lina immediately walked out, looking for a place for her to wash her hands.

Saga put down the meat she was eating, got up and walked towards the cave door. From there, he always paid attention to Lina's every move.

With Saga's behavior like that, making Lina feel so helpless, she turned her head towards Saga who was standing at the mouth of the cave.

"You don't have to watch over me to that extent. Even if I wanted to run, I wouldn't be able to run, especially now it's midnight."

Saga remained standing silently expressionless, her dark eyes always staring at him with the look of her eyes that seemed to not accept any form of compromise.

Lina couldn't do anything anymore, nor did she have any other choice.

He then squatted down in front of the snow mound, put his hand into the mound and washed his greasy hands, from one hand to the other hand alternately until clean.

Before he returned to the cave, he took out a clean ice crystal and stuffed it into his mouth.

"I've eaten some barbecue. In my mouth it also feels greasy. Looks like eating some of this ice will make my mouth feel fresh."

Lina who saw Saga looking at her mouth, thought that if she also wanted to eat ice, she then thrust a piece of ice crystal at him and asked, "Do you want to?"

"I don't like cold things."

Lina was confused by what she had just said.

"Do you really like hot things or cold things? Is there anything else in the world you like?"

"....." Saga simply looked at the girl's face and did not speak for a long time.

Now Lina was used to her silence and did not care about it.

He went back into the cave, tidied up the haystack and lay down.

Saga was not far from him. He started leaning his head and body against the cave wall.

His face was pale, as if there was not a single drop of blood flowing in his flesh.

His thick, long eyelashes began to move down, following his eyelids closing second by second and erasing the dark glare of his eyes.

His long black hair as dark as night decomposed down past his cheeks and every strand of his hair tips that touched the ground.

A snowy cold wind suddenly blew into the cave, shaking the flames they used to warm their bodies.

Sensing a cold gust of wind, Saga frowned and immediately opened her eyes. He saw that Lina had fallen asleep, with her position facing sideways to the entrance of the cave, curling her body because she felt the cold coming into the cave.

Saga rushed up towards the entrance of the cave, immediately taking off his gray robe and throwing it aside. His body looks slender and also pale.

Now he has changed to his original form.

At the head, right in the middle between his eyebrows, there is a black Gem.

His body he circled to close the entrance of the cave, then he leaned his head over his circular body. His pupils were dark, never budging for a second and always watching Lina who was asleep.

Now the cold wind from outside the cave, already blocked by his body, made the room become warmer. Lina now seems to have calmed down with her sleep.

The next day, Lina woke up from her sleep.

The first thing he saw, the first time he opened his eyes was, a huge head was black!

Spontaneous alone made him extremely shocked, trembling and extremely scared!

With his life still not fully accumulated, he quickly rolled his body down from the haystack and continued to roll far to the ground to get away from the black-colored head!

Saga who had also woken up from her sleep, when she opened her eyes, she saw Lina was rolling around quickly on the ground. He then stretched out his tail, wrapped his tail around Lina's body and gently placed it back into the haystack.

Lina nervously looked at the creature in front of her. His eyes paused for a long time on the black jewel between his eyebrows, then he asked doubtfully, "A are you Saga?"

The creature did not open its mouth, but it could make a sound from its stomach.

"Yes. It's me." It's me."

Lina did not expect that the original form of the Saga was a Snake. He was a black giant Piton Snake!

The animal Lina fears the most in this world is snakes. His entire body was goosebumps when he looked at this python in front of him, He ventured to ask, "Mom shouldn't snakes also hibernate? But why don't you?"

"When animals evolve into orcs, they don't need to hibernate." Answer Saga.

"Can you change back to human form?" Pinta Lina with a low and low voice. "You're so scary to me.."

Saga lowered her head and stuck her head towards Lina, now the distance of the snake's head with lina's body was only one fist away. His black pupils stared intently at Lina.

"Do you think I look ugly in this shape?"

Women are generally afraid of snakes. Saga had often been looked at with disdain by the Orcs who saw him. Those who disliked and looked at her disdain, it all ended very horribly.

What if the little girl doesn't like her appearance?

As Lina stared at the snake's scalp, she felt her body start to cool, the blood all over her body was like freezing, her skin was like numbness from the endless goosebumps!

He shivered as he said, "You're not ugly.. Just a little scary.."

Saga thought for a moment, then said, "Are you afraid of snakes?"

Lina nodded her head a few times while quickly admitting, "Yes, yes, yes, yes. I'm afraid.."

Lina almost fainted from being so scared.

The python slightly opened its mouth, stuck out its branching tongue and gently swept across the little girl's face, then said, "No need to fear me."

The tongue of a snake is the softest part of a snake. Traces swiped his tongue, leaving wet marks on Lina's face.

Lina covered her cheeks, and her eyes widened.

"Very cute." Saga murmured in his heart.

He stretched out his tail again, wrapped it back around Lina, then carried it into the arms of her circle. He stuck out his head and gently rubbed his head on the little girl's cheek, "I won't hurt you."

As if feeling her kindness, Lina tried to ease her fear.

He stared at the head of the snake, then carefully stretched out his hand and touched it.

His cold and slippery scales made him a little surprised and pulled his hands slightly away.

The python looked at him excitedly in his eyes.

Lina swallowed her saliva, with her heart beating out of curiosity, once again she reached out to touch her head. This time his touch stayed there even longer.

Saga moved her head to rub the palm of Lina's hand that was touching her head.

Seeing her calm appearance, Lina could not help but touch her again.

Saga wrapped her entire body around Lina's body, the black snake's pupils looking attentive and affectionate.

Then, Lina tried to touch the snake's tongue for the first time.

"It feels so weird."

He held the tongue with both of his palms and with one of his hands on the tongue, he scratched it gently using his finger.

The entire body of the Piton was shivering, a dark red color appearing in his black eyes. He wrapped around the little girl's body even tighter.

This way, no one can take this girl. This girl will only be his.
