In the dark underground world, a little light illuminated the darkness next to the small pool, and after crushing the ice blade mantis to pieces, Lasha didn't see the injuries on his body at all, and jumped directly into the water to desperately save Ulysses.

"Thanks, Rasha. Ulysses, who had almost returned to the embrace of the Supreme God, leaned against the mountain wall, trying to pretend that he was fine.

Unfortunately, it was not successful at all.

"Woooooooo

If it were herself, no matter how painful it was, even if one hand was completely destroyed, she could endure it. But just seeing Ulysses now, her tears were completely uncontrollable.

"Don't cry, I'm fine. Ulysses reached out his hand and stroked Raxia's hair. But this action, which would normally be done easily, was now so difficult that it took him a lot of concentration to complete.

This, even the coaxing Lascha in Ulysses' eyes could see, and she could even imagine how much Ulysses had suffered before she arrived.

The thought that it was all because of her own powerlessness made Rashia's eyes even moister, and large tears continued to wet Ulysses' chest from the corners of her eyes.

"Really, I'm not that bad...... Ahem......" Ulysses coughed, gently cupped Racha's cheeks with both hands, and wiped away the tears that had fallen.

Every time a new tear falls, he repeats this action, gently and quietly. And just now, he burst out with all his power to bombard the Ice Blade Mantis, and the terrifying momentum shocked all the monsters around him, Raxia, just like a good little white rabbit, gently accepting Ulysses' comfort.

While doing so, Ulysses felt something soft spread through his mind. The coldness that had been bothering him and eating away at his body had subsided a lot, quietly hiding deeper into his body.

"Ulysses, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Rasha struggled to hold back tears, holding Ulysses' body in both hands, repeating the apology.

It was the most terrible thing she had ever experienced in her life, even more terrible than when she was lost in the underground caverns and fought in the darkness of the underground for three days and three nights. She never knew how sad it was to see someone important to her get hurt in front of her, or even close to death.

It was a feeling a thousand times sadder than the wounds on her body, and when she first saw Ulysses, who was sunk to the bottom of the water, his face had lost all blood, as if he had left this world, her heart was about to burst.

It hurts, it hurts, I can't think, I can't imagine what Ulysses would have become if she had lost her like that, what her future would have been like.

In the world where Ulysses is not there, even if she really becomes a brave man, what is the point. In a world where the people she likes are not there, can she really protect them wholeheartedly?

She even felt scary to imagine that world.

Perhaps, she is far from being as strong as she thinks.

"Stupid, what are you going to apologize for......" Ulysses laughed and tapped Rasha's head. He didn't think that Rasha needed to apologize to him, he should have thanked Rasha. If Rashia hadn't arrived in time, he would have been dragged out of the water by the huge underground praying mantis in a few minutes and eaten.

After losing the power of the Miracle Sword, he was still the ordinary light magician, an ordinary person who was worried about how to learn healing. A novice who can't defeat even a monster even if he tries his best.

In contrast, Rasha is the real powerhouse, even if one hand is not good, she can still easily defeat the enemy who has driven him into a corner. The powerful power that erupted in that moment could be felt even by him underwater.

Strong, love-minded, a little confused, but he will definitely stand at the forefront when he fights, this is the Rasha he knows, a cute and powerful brave girl.

"Your injuries are also very serious, don't leave me alone. Knowing that mere comfort was not very effective, Ulysses began to change the subject.

Although he was not lightly injured after falling from a high altitude and being attacked by monsters, the injuries on Kelasha's body must not be ignored. Even though she was much stronger than him, he had seen the horrific sight of her right hand almost bursting open as she fought the enemy called Hades.

Now, the hand was still hanging by her side, and it seemed to have no strength. In addition to this, there were many abrasions and bruises on her body, and he could almost completely imagine how she rushed here after hearing his voice.

Even on the face that she usually pays attention to protecting, there are a few scratches, which is more important than life for many girls.

"It's okay, this little injury will be healed all at once. Rasha raised her right hand unconcernedly.

Her own injuries, she herself would not care at all. Since she was a child, she has possessed extraordinary combat talent and a strong physique that matches Yu's, and her ability to endure pain and toxins far exceeds that of ordinary people, and by now, she has basically been immune to most poisons.

However, the attack of the strange long sword just now was indeed extraordinary, almost completely ignoring the defense, shattering the tissue of her right hand. That kind of power she had never seen before, and it was obviously quite a powerful force.

However, even with such a terrifying force, her body was slowly adapting, and the pain began to slowly feel in her hand, which had been completely unconscious at the beginning just now, which was not a sign of deterioration, but a sign that her body was beginning to heal.

The pain could be felt, indicating that the destroyed tissue was recovering, and the force that had invaded her body was being dissipated. Injuries worse than this had been suffered by her during the trial alone, and the pain was completely bearable.

"That's not going to work, Aunt Lana has said many times that she wants me to take good care of you. Ulysses grabbed Rashana's still unwielding right hand, and then skillfully retrieved the small bag he was carrying from his clothes.

Suddenly, lightly, but professionally, he bandaged his right hand, which was one of the jobs that Ulysses said he had lived. The active and tireless Laxia always has small injuries of one kind or another, and it is almost customary for him to deal with this situation.

Half of the medical bag I carried with me was for my frail sister, and the other half was for this brave girl who loved to get into trouble.

"Whew...... Okay, after bandaging all of Rasha's wounds, Ulysses found that all the bandages in his medical pouch had been used, and this time Lasha's injuries were really not to the extent of falling from a tree dozens of meters away and then hitting the rocks.

Especially the right hand, no matter how you look at it, it's a shocking serious injury. The power of that sword almost completely destroyed Rashya's right hand, and if it weren't for his confidence in Rashya's strong physique, he would have worried that this injury would affect her later life.

"Ulysses, I've got all the medical bandages, how about yourself. After letting Ulysses take care of his wounds as naturally as before, Rasha found that he had forgotten about his wounds.

Although it looked like a serious internal injury, the parts of her hand and face were also scratched by the shards of the ice blade like hers, which may not be fatal, but they still left scars that had not healed.

"Ah...... Forgot about ...... It doesn't matter, it's not a serious injury, it's going to be fine. Ulysses touched his cheek, a burning pain.

Compared to the residual coldness in his body and the internal injuries he suffered when he was shocked just now, this pain was really nothing.

"No, how can this be, Ulysses, you are in pain too. Rasha could feel the warmth of the bandaged area, and the injury was recovering quickly. On the other hand, the wound on Ulysses's face became more obvious, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.

Apparently, Ulysses was only thinking about her, completely forgetting that he was also seriously injured. He was the one who needed these bandages more than her physically strong.

But now, there is no more, and it is all used on her.

Ulysses smiled and wanted to say something, but froze for a moment.

Laxia's face slowly approached him, and the girl's peculiar aura was clearly audible.

This is...... Before Ulysses could react, Rascha had already kissed him on the cheek - or rather, licked it better.

A moment, a moment, a different gentleness from Ulysses, full of the sincere heart of a girl, for Rashia, this is what she feels she should do now.

It's cold...... Rasha, who had purified Ulysses' wounds with the methods she had learned from Lana's mother, felt her tongue cold, and she understood more about Ulysses' condition when he was underwater just now.

It must have been very cold there, there was nothing around but the icy pool of water, which had lost all the temperature of her body, and if she had come a little earlier, a little stronger in the face of that enemy, there would have been no such thing.

It's so sad, so sad, I can't help but want to cry, this heartache is so sad.

"Stupid. Ulysses looked at his childhood friend who was crying while licking his wounds, felt the hot tears on his cheeks, and couldn't help but stretch out his hands to hug her.

The warmth from the girl's body made his heart more gentle. Like a pure white ball shining in the dark, no matter where it is, it still has its own small brilliance. The coldness and dead silence in the body disappeared a little more unconsciously.

Thanks, Rasha.
