103. The Price of Combat

I stood up for the pain for now but thought it might be pretty bad.

"? Lena, what's wrong? That's a lot of sweat, isn't it?

I was scratching my sweat when I was told to wipe my face gently.

"That's because I just defeated the oak."

To Youre, he manages to sit back to the roots of a nearby tree with that said. Every time I walked, I was hit by severe pain from around my left ankle but managed to move to the root of the tree. Still, during the fight, I barely felt the pain, but during the fight, adrenaline? Was it? Was that out there and you weren't in pain? If so, I was glad this pain wasn't during the Orc fight. Because I may not have been able to move properly in this condition......

I took my boots off with that in mind. Anyway, it hurts! My socks were stained bright red and my blood was dripping when I took my feet out of my boots thinking about it.

"I used to be able to move, I..."

"Fuck, Lena!!

That's what Yua used to say, but he manages to calm down and start treating himself. I took my socks off first to see what was going on......

(Yeah, I see bones)

Or I used to be able to move in this state. And I was surprised myself, but I was watching how I was and Yua's complexion was getting worse and worse, so I washed it nicely with water and repositioned the bone, then stopped the bleeding and repaired the bone. I was treating myself, and I thought, but it consumes less magic than I thought? I thought. I think it's about half compared to when Youre treated with the least amount of magic. I don't know how it got so little. For now, I appreciated it.

"In the meantime, is this the end of the procedure?

"Are you sure? Are you okay now?

"Yeah. Well, it wasn't worse than Yua's injury at all, was it?

"Huh?... Was my injury worse than Lena's injury earlier?

And I came to ask you that. Speaking of which, I thought Yua didn't know what she was doing when she was injured because she treated her when she wasn't awake.

"Yes, but you want to hear it?

"Uh..." Gokuri, "yeah"

Yua nodded as she seemed determined despite her worries, so I tried to tell her, but I'll check again just in case.

"Are you sure? It can make you feel bad..."

"Well, it's okay...... maybe"

Yua decided to teach because she said so. That Yua's right shoulder was submerged in the size of an oak fist position, and his right hand, that quite a few bones had popped out and shed a lot of blood.

"Ho, is that true?

"Yeah, that's why I was in a lot of a hurry when I saw Yua get hurt."

"Oh yeah... you're alive because of Lena. Thanks."

"Thank you, that's enough."

And with that said I was so depressed when I tried to start washing things that were dirty with blood that Yua said she would do it but she said no mostly because she was doing it with my magic. To Youre, I'm sorry, but it's quicker to do it yourself, right? With that in mind, I first washed my socks and robes together in water, although I was a little surprised by the bleeding than I thought I would flip my boots.

I hope there is a way to dry it off soon then. I thought that if I was trying so hard to get rid of the moisture with water magic, I could go well and put it on straight away. Well, instead, it's the first magic I've ever used, so it consumed a lot of magic...
