In the silence of darkness, Urs suddenly realized that he had probably been unconscious for a long time, his brain was as heavy as lead, and the feeling of being muddy and stiff was as if he had just experienced a long dream, which could be said to be both real and vague.

He remembered the burning city, the raging demons, the eye of the abyss hanging high in the night sky, and the church in the temple district...... Wall's Chapel, the god of war, where he and his companions are challenged by a Tieflin Juggernaut, and the battle is fierce and arduous, with powerful enemies almost ......

No, not "almost", but "already".

Powerful enemies had cornered him, and his companions fell one after another under their katanas, and he managed to defeat them with all his might, but he did not succeed in killing them.

Turning...... Yes, there was a turning point in the course of the battle, and that was where something completely ignited his anger and caused him to completely risk his life.

The turning point that made him risk his life to fight to the death was the bastard Juggernaut...... Entropy!

Oh, Entropy - that damn guy killed Thea!

In retrospect, the two-ring magic of "Protecting Others" connected Thea and his life at that time, and Tieflin Swordmaster slashed himself with a single sword, and the terrifying slash damage indirectly cut down the wolf-eared priest girl who was extremely important to him.

He heard the girl's screams at that time, turned his head, and watched his beloved girl leaning over, showing a tearful smile to himself at the last moment of falling, and saying to himself a sentence that he will never forget for the rest of his life......

The vague dream suddenly became clear.

Little by little, the mind regains the ability to think...... He thought about it all!

But what kind of state are you in at this moment? Alive? Or is it dead?

Do dead people dream? Probably not...... He didn't know.

However, he believed that he should have survived in the end, but the living body was really a little inhuman, and the scars left on his body by Entropy through the katana had all deepened, and he felt that he must have been dismantled.

So...... Trying to wake up?

Yes, that's right, wake up and try.

Urs felt that his mind had finally sunk so much at this point, and his mind was reviving from his dazed state, and he realized that the so-called dream was actually his memory, and that the difficult battle was a real thing in the past.

Then, he struggled to support his eyelids, using the elbow of his right arm to support the balance of lying down, and opened his two brown pupils to see Castano's main material plane world again, and woke up......

The curtains were lifted by a breeze, and bright light shone in from the outside of the room, piercing his eyes that had just opened a line and narrowing them back, and his palms were subconsciously raised to cover his forehead.

After taking a moment to get used to the brightness of the light, the young man sat up, only to find himself sitting on a soft bed, surrounded by an ordinary room, not as luxurious as the villas and mansions in the rich area, but at least much more neat than the appearance of an abandoned and empty house, which looked like an inn room in the merchant district.

He was stunned for a long time, and found that the room was empty, except for himself...... Then he removed his left hand from a quilt that was covering him.

If I'm not mistaken, Urs knew that his left hand was missing half of the palm and a large muscle on the side of his arm, but those missing parts had now grown back.

It took an unknown amount of time for the regenerative properties to restore his almost fragmented body back to its normal appearance, and countless volumes wrapped him in a white bandage like a mummy, proving that someone had rescued and cared for him during his coma.

Who is that person? Draco? Victor? Or was it the companion who survived the disaster with him at that time?

Urs blinked, and raised his finger to touch his face, the scarred half of his cheek that gave him a little more of a sense of authenticity.

The door of the room was suddenly pushed open from the outside to the inside—

"Urs?"

A familiar voice, a great joy mixed with a bit of incredible surprise.

When the young man heard the voice, he was stunned for a moment, and his eyes turned to the direction from which the voice came, and then he saw that the light silver head had two fluffy white wolf ears, and a pair of amber eyes stared at each other from a short distance that was not too far away.

The girl standing in front of the door—

Hope... Ya?

He opened his mouth, his voice stuck in his throat, muffled by a hint of surprise before he could react, unable to speak.

Thea also stood there dumbfounded, breathing between her half-open lips, and in her hands a few new bandages that were intended to be replaced for the young man.

Now, however, a new white bandage slipped from between her fingers and flowed in a line to the floor of the room, the girl's feet, a linen dress of everyday life, and a pair of bland brown leather boots.

The boots quickly moved, leading the girl's body briskly to the edge of the bed.

The silver-haired, wolf-eared girl didn't know why she did this, and the feeling was completely involuntary. When she saw the young man sitting on the bed when he woke up, she was touched somewhere deep in her heart, and the corners of her eyes were uncontrollably moist and sparkling......

"Urs, are you awake? That's great...... That, listen to me, we-huh?! ”

The girl came to the edge of the bed, sat on the edge of the lean, her white hand slowly raised, trying to touch the young man's cheek slowly, trying to confirm that all this was true, but for a moment she did not expect the other party's reaction to be far more excited than hers.

Urs didn't know if he had been stuck in a state of mind again, or if it had gone blank since he saw the girl.

He froze, his eyes wide open, a second, two, three...... Then the conditioned reflex, the emotions in his heart were like a flood that burst the embankment, and he couldn't hold it anymore, his sturdy arms just hugged the ** that was close at hand, and the black-haired head closed his eyes tightly against the other party's small shoulders, his breathing was disordered, and his nose smelled a faint body fragrance, and he originally thought that his will had already been tough enough-

But at this moment, I suddenly realized that this was not the case.

Man is not a perfect creature. Born as a human being, he realized for the first time that his feelings were so unbearable, and the scene of parting burned into his heart like a nightmare.

Luckily, I woke up from a nightmare.

She's alive...... She's alive!

He didn't care why she was still alive, he just thought that the value of this result was worth everything in the world, even if the legendary mage wrote it himself, the most cherished magical treasure of the primeval red dragon, the supreme godhead—all of these treasures and so on, all, all of them, added together—he didn't want to trade this silver-haired wolf-eared girl from his arms!

She is priceless, unique, and will never be lost from her side again!

The young man thought wildly, his nose twitched suddenly, his lips gritted his teeth and pursed his lips to outline the arc of his smile little by little, and his black hair hid the look in his eyes from a special angle.

"Urs......" Thea tilted her head, passively feeling the temperature of the young man's chest, compared to the incomparably slender waist and back were tightly hugged by the pair of muscular arms, and the power conveyed in her body through physical contact was different from the dragon's greed for jewelry, but it was completely a lost admiration.

Tenderness in admiration.

Gentleness and enthusiasm.

This sudden enthusiasm caught her a little off guard, but she quickly accepted the young man's gesture, tears welled up in the corners of her moist eyes, and she blinked embarrassedly, and her two little white hands meekly wrapped around the latter's back and slowly clasped it, and embraced him with a flushed face.

Urs embraced Thea, and the unexpected surprise gave him the illusion that time was slowing down, and that any figure of speech of the bard would pale in the moment.

His mind forgot to think, and for a short time, he just wanted to keep the touch of happiness alive for the first time.

After a few minutes.

"Urs ......"

“…… Don't talk. ”

The girl's voice was interrupted by the young man's "unreasonableness" again.

The small body was surrounded by thick arms, which were slightly loosened so that the brown eyes and amber eyes met at this very close distance.

He looked at the girl in front of him, and understood that the girl was also looking at him, and his longing gaze fell on his almost ripe face, and his lips were quickly dried up and offered a deep kiss......
