Chapter 481: Memories of the Void (8)
You don't want to have an accident.
Sora thought like this, running in the barracks, he ran anxiously, was desperate to rush, along the way bumped into many passing knights, some people would not accuse him of anything, the worse tempered could not help but complain a few words, every time he sat down, he immediately bounced, bypassed the obstacle and continued to run, at first he would drop a word or two "sorry", in the end, it was just reckless.
You can't do anything more.
In his heart, he kept saying.
The door of the infirmary was slammed open by the boy, there was a loud creak, and the cold wind wrapped in fine snowflakes also poured in, and the people in the room looked up with surprise, and the moment they saw the person who came clearly, the surprise disappeared, and only with a look of helplessness and worry, they looked down again.
"Close the door first, I adjust the temperature in the room just right, otherwise it will not be good for the wound recovery. Sarah, who sat in front of the bed, spoke, and Urfa lay on the bed in front of her, with a tender pale cheek that seemed to be unbearable, and a weak breath came out of her mouth and nose.
Kuben had already rushed to the bed, staring at the person on the bed with his eyes, and when he heard Sara's words, he quickly turned back and pushed it on the door, and then quickly came to the bed, and stood across the bed with Sarah, looking down at the person lying on the bed together.
"Urfa, Urfa," he said his name anxiously, pulling the edge of the bed, before the noise of the door closing behind him rang out, "Grandma Sharo, how is Urfa?" he looked at Sharo again.
As soon as Sharo looked up, he could clearly see every trace of anxiety and impatience on the other party's face, and there was an inexplicable timidity in the other party's words, but not for anyone.
"Don't worry, his wounds have been treated in time, and he only needs a few days of quiet recuperation, which will not affect his life, and you don't need to worry so much," Sharo said comfortingly while looking at the expression on her empty face, she reached out and gently stroked Urfa's cheek, "He worked too hard to practice magic, his body was only so weak, and he carried too much load, so he couldn't control the magic flowing in his body, so he directly injured him from the body to the outside of the body." β
Sora was indeed too worried, until he got a message from Sharo that Urfa was really fine, and the tense nerves were relieved, and he was a little quiet to be able to see Urfa's appearance at this time, Sharo's rough fingers slid on Urfa's pale face, and he remembered that when he first met Urfa, the child was lying on the ground and learning to bark at a stray dog, which was also so white, white as if it could be fused with the snow on the ground, since he came to the barracks, and the food and accommodation were guaranteed, he gradually had the ruddy that a normal person should have, but now, even the light red complexion on this face is difficult to see again, as if he was injured and returned to the pastγ
"Grandma, Urfa, is he seriously injured?" Sora asked again.
Urfa closed his eyes and fell asleep on the bed, this blow was to the extent that he could faint directly on the spot, except for his head exposed, his entire body and limbs were tightly covered by the quilt, and three or four layers of quilts were added to his body, and the quilt in the barracks was rough and thin, probably because Sara had scavenged all the empty bed configurations, all of which were used on Urfa alone, and he was covered tightly.
"You don't have to worry too much, in fact, your brother was still conscious when he was sent here, tell me that if his brother comes to him, tell him that he is fine, he doesn't feel very bad or in pain or anything, just a normal injury. Sarah didn't answer the right question, as if he had deliberately replied.
The empty heart let go of a little more, Grandma Sara gave him a very close and friendly feeling, so he was willing to believe Sarah's words, how could he not want to believe that his brother was safe, even if Sarah seemed to be deliberately avoiding the point of his question.
"But what happened to Urfa, and why did he get hurt like this? I've studied magic, and I know what it's like when you say you can't control your magic, but I've never seen anything like it. If you practice magic, you can hurt yourself?"
At this time, he thought that even magic would not be touched by Urfa first. At first, the two of them exercised together, and the amount of tasks that Urfa barely completed was barely completed, and Urfa's weaker body was not half reached, so tired that he couldn't afford to be on the ground, and the results of Urfa's hard work could not meet the requirements, not to mention Urfa, this kind of thing with half the effort, and even could only damage Urfa's already weak body, so Ulfa didn't let Urfa train with him, but Urfa was extremely unrelenting because of this incident.
Sora could probably guess Urfa's inner thoughts when he opposed his idea, just like the tall man refused to take him hunting, so what if he didn't even let him touch the magic?
Sora felt that his brain was hurting, but in this short period of time, there were too many things on his mind, but thinking about it, it only made him feel that things were mixed up and more and more difficult to manage, what did he do, what was the best way to do it, how could he overcome the difficulties, did he have to affect other ......
Suddenly he wanted to leave it all behind, and now he wanted to sit in front of Urfa's bed with him.
"If even the most basic practice of magic is a double-edged sword, how can magic still be popularized in this world," Salo sighed, "What should I say, do you blame this kid for trying too hard?" she smiled wryly, "How can anyone take 'effort' as the source of the blame." β
Sarah glanced over and saw the vial she was holding in her empty hand.
"You haven't medicated yourself yet?"
Kong was stunned for a moment, only to remember that he still had medicine for bruises, he was too anxious all the way, and there was no trace of his heart left on him, and now he was mentioned by Sharo, and the wound that tortured his ankle began to hurt again.
"This medicine, let's use it for Urfa, the training officer said that medicine is a scarce thing in the top three of the barracks, I am in good health, I can do without it," Sora was about to sit down and open the medicine bottle, suddenly thought about it for a while, stood up again and handed out the medicine bottle, "Just give it to my brother." β
"Don't worry, I specially gave it to you, just to show that in addition to this foreign medicine, it is still sufficient, and the scarcity of medicine is true, but in order to save it, you don't need to give it to the wounded, so can it still be regarded as medicine," Sharo said, "You can use it yourself." β
So Sora relieved himself and drugged his feet.
"Are you going to continue training for a while? or stay with me today and stay with your brother. Sara looked at Sora who had medicated herself, thought for a moment, and asked again.
In fact, he said that in the heart of an empty heart, in the depths of his heart, he still obeyed the idea that he stayed, whether it was tired of the life of training, or overly worried about his younger brother.
Sora sat on the ground, silent for a while, and Sara didn't know what Sora was thinking or struggling with during this wordless time, and then he spoke, "Will Grandma take care of Urfa?"
Sarah nodded, it was natural.
"Then I'll go to training," Sora said, "Urfa is weak and should rest, but I'm my brother, I can't rest casually, time is running out, but I'm far from meeting the requirements of acceptance, the less time I have, the more I can't rest, I don't have time, I have to continue training." β
Sharo watched the empty medicine get up, and finally looked at Urfa on the bed a few times with nostalgia, and heard him say "It's enough for me to know that Urfa is okay", and then watched him turn around and want to leave the house, seeing that he didn't take two steps as if he couldn't hold his body and was about to fall, this boy ran all the way with his injured ankles and ankles.
"Don't go!" she suddenly called out to the air, she was old, and she lived up to her vigor, she hadn't spoken so loudly to anyone in a long time, "for the rest of the day, you can stay here and rest." "It's just one sentence loud, and the rest of the words are just kind and helpless.
"But ......"
"Even if it's not for yourself, but also for your brother, I think your brother must hope that the first thing he sees when he wakes up is his brother, aren't you his only family, he was injured today, shouldn't you choose to stay with him for a while, at least stay until he wakes up, let him talk to you for a while, so that you can train again with more peace of mind," Sharo said, "just wait until he wakes up and can talk to him a few words." β
These words stopped Sora, especially a certain word, how could he not understand the feeling that Sarah had said, in the days before, since he woke up in that cave, since he first saw the man sitting by the campfire, how many nights after that, did he not hope to wake up and see the men by his side?
The world is so big, who doesn't want to sleep in peace, and who doesn't want to wake up to find that they are alone again?
These emptiness have all been there, whether it is the former or the latter.
On the first night of losing the tall man and the bearded man forever, when he woke up in the middle of the night, he didn't feel that the surroundings were extremely cold, the world was dark and big, he was scared and sad, he was so afraid that he cried, he was so sad that he burst into tears.
But training, too, can't stop, he promised Urfa, he will definitely give him a good future, a good enough future, but the first hurdle they have to face is so difficult, so difficult that it can't be overcome, so he can only fight everything to do, even if it doesn't stop racing against time.
But......
He fell into a tangle again, once he also lived in a more worry-free life, never thought that one day, there would be such an anxious moment, there were so many choices and trade-offs on the way forward, all of them fell on him, he felt that his head began to hurt again.
"Then I'll stay with him," Sora struggled for a long time, but finally walked back and lay on the side of Urfa's bed, "I'll stay with my brother, so that he won't wake up and feel like he's alone." β
"Good, good. Sarah's tone was like a heart hanging down quietly.
Leaning on the edge of the bed, he quietly stared at Urfa's face, and sometimes couldn't help but wonder if Uncle Bearded Man would look at him like this when he was asleep, watching him fall asleep peacefully, and then the tall man on the side also occasionally glanced over to this side, confirming the two of them.
Thinking about it, he reached under the covers and took Urfa's hand.
But while holding the childish hand, Sora was stunned, and Saro saw that there was a worried look on his face again, and saw Sora pull Urfa's hand out of the corner of the quilt, and knew that he couldn't hold it.
"These wounds?" Sora looked at Urfa's hand in the palm of his hand, which was just the area of a palm, and it was all dense and thin wounds, densely distributed on the skin, as if someone had cut it dozens of times with a thin blade, "How can there be so many such wounds?"
Sora's brow furrowed, he almost forgot what kind of root cause caused him to run so worriedly, he was worried that his brother's life would be threatened, the pool of blood on the training ground that was even bigger than Urfa's body, for a child, it was completely abnormal bleeding!
He finally knew what kind of injury made his brother bleed like that. In a hurry, he reached out to the quilt as if to lift it for confirmation.
But he was stopped by the old man's hand.
"Don't look at it, don't let him get cold. Sarah said.
"This wound," Sora asked, holding Urfa's scarred palm, trembling, "Is it possible that Urfa has such injuries all over his body?"
Sara didn't nod, she didn't shake her head, or she didn't dare, she couldn't stand it in the face of empty stares, and finally she could only sigh deeply.
"There are some things that your brother told me not to tell you," said Sharo, "for example, he was injured today, he forced himself to learn magic as quickly as possible, even more ruthless to himself than you, no, to say that he was just thinking that he could learn magic and even his own body could ignore it, it would be more accurate, so that he gathered magic power, regardless of whether it was beyond the scope of his own bearing, hoarded too much magic power, and could not control it, his attribute is wind, and those magic power that is not under his control directly turned into a gas blade in his body." β
"What do you mean?" Sora's brow furrowed even tighter.
"If that magic is flames, it's equivalent to a bomb that explodes directly inside his body. β
The empty heart chuckled, as if there was really a bomb, exploding in his heart, the explosion of his heart was cracked, extremely painful, he didn't dare to imagine that kind of picture, imagining countless wind blades cutting a boy's body from the inside out, that was more cruel than slashing countless knives directly from the outside world, he didn't dare to imagine it anymore, it would only aggravate his heartache.
"To this point, all this is because he also knows how difficult it is to reach the goal, just as you love him, how much this brother cares about his brother, he doesn't want all the burden to be on his brother's shoulders, he doesn't want to be a burden to his brother," Sharo looked at the sleeping Urfa with a heart-wrenching expression and tone, caressing his cheek, "Do you know how hard this kid works to be without you in the slightest." β
Sora suddenly thought that he was eager to be a help to the men, why didn't he think of this in Urfa.
The younger brother he has always wanted to protect is bearing a burden that is even heavier than himself.
"What else I don't know, while I'm busy training. He asked
