“W-what did you say?”
Upon hearing Mika's words, the disheveled wizard's face took on the colors of anger.
"I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!"
I quickly grabbed the newcomer's head and bowed my back to the therapist apologetically:
“She's still new and doesn't know anything. I'm going to scold her and teach her, so please forgive us this time.”
The Imperial healer system is based on strict ranks, and disobeying superiors' orders could lead to imprisonment. Furthermore, seven out of every ten advanced healers are nobles, and if that healer is a noble, a charge may be added.
Insulting the nobility and the story turns into a disaster.
“How dare you... and in front of whom!”
Damn, the situation is so urgent, can't he just get over it?
At that moment, a knight ran into the healing tent and shouted:
"Everyone evacuate! Emergency situation! Monsters are now flocking to the wall!"
Upon hearing that, the healers quickly left the patients, got up, and began to leave the tent under the knight's guidance.
“Consider yourselves lucky!”
Even the disheveled healer, who was shaking with anger, ran outside with the others.
Everyone who could move left, and only the seriously injured, unable to move, or unconscious remained in the tent.
“Oh, oh? What shall we do, miss!”
The newcomer started hitting the ground with her feet in confusion.
“Follow them quickly. The most important thing in an emergency is the healer’s life. If we die, everyone else will die too. You must escape now.”
The newcomer hesitated upon hearing my words.
“What about the people remaining here? And what about you, miss!”
“I'll take care of it myself. Run fast!”
“This is an order!”
When I shouted at her, the new girl was terrified and ran out of the tent.
“Huff. Well, let’s see...”
If I were a regular healer, I might have run away with the others.
But I couldn't run away and leave people I could save with my own strength.
After all the healers disappeared, I quickly went to the middle of the tent, which was filled with groaning sounds, and put the healing stick on the ground.
At that moment, bright mana surged from the wand as if it was oscillating and flowing, filling the tent with powerful light.
I remembered the healer character from the game “Fine Hours” that I was playing before I moved to this world, and I repeated the sentence to activate collective healing:
[Heroes do not die]°
With these words, the strength of the mana light increased and began to shine intensely.
A light so powerful that the eyes closed, and at the same time, the wounds of the people inside the tent began to heal quickly.
As soon as the light faded, the patients, whose bodies were filled with blood and wounds, had completely recovered.
I shouted to those awake from their sleep:
“It's an emergency! Monsters are streaming out of the wall!”
Because of my urgent screams, they started to wake up one by one, and quickly left the tent.
After making sure the tent was empty, I followed them outside.
At that moment, the sound of brutal, hateful screams like cheering was heard coming from the distant wall, and then a loud scream rang out.
Cook! Cook! Cook!
With loud crashing sounds, part of the fence collapsed.
From that gap, monsters wearing armor and carrying weapons entered with great cheers.
A scene that I had only seen in movies was really happening before my eyes.
I can't think of anything anymore.
The monsters were randomly killing everyone who protected the wall.
“Ahhh!”
“Ah...save...!”
“Kahah!”
Blood, screams and groans spread everywhere.
Wizards and knights easily fell under the monsters' swords.
Doom, doom. (heartbeat)
What offensive magic can I use?
I held the stick tightly amidst the tension, but nothing came to my mind.
There was nothing.
It was normal.
Ever since I passed on the novel ten years ago, I've lived with the idea that I should live safely inside a temple, so I haven't learned anything except healing magic.
Should I treat these people now? What do I do…?
I couldn't do anything in front of the aura of death near me. “Eveliana Rosebelaire,” who was famous for being a great witch, no longer exists in this world.
At that moment.
Cook!
The sound of something heavy falling from the sky was heard.
In an instant, the monsters that had entered the wall exploded with flames and smoke, scattering everywhere.
The fugitives and the monsters stopped together because of the great sound.
Everyone's eyes turned to the gap in the collapsed wall.
The screams of monsters were heard from among the smoke, and as it slowly began to disappear, the scattered corpses of monsters appeared.
The attacking monsters hesitated and looked back, and the shadow of a single person standing there appeared after the smoke cleared.
As soon as they saw him, the angry monsters rushed towards him all at once.
They were hundreds of monsters.
And while I thought he would inevitably die in the middle of...
Their siege...
Ching!
A sharp sound was heard, and in the blink of an eye, those many monsters stopped moving.
Then they turned into pieces of flesh and fell to the ground.
Amid the falling pieces of meat, a uniformed man stood holding a sword.
The great sword was exuding a red aura, and monster blood was dripping from it.
On the right side of his black uniform, there was a family seal with a dragon drawn on it.
Since I had been seeing it constantly in the newspapers lately, I knew very well which family this seal belonged to.
“Hilderius….”
One of the superheroes in the world of this novel.
The twin brother of the heroine, and the person who took the life of the evil one (the great witch) after going back in time.
“Lloyd Hilderius.”
I remembered the conversation that took place between me and Bree before coming.
°Kay. who knows? Perhaps Duke Lloyd's handsome son will suddenly appear, eliminate monsters and protect you!°
Ha, it's come true.
With the annihilation of all the monsters that had entered the city, the people began to shout shouts of joy:
“He is the son of Duke Hilderius!”
“Oh, Sir Lloyd!”
The survivors ran towards Lloyd.
I tried as much as possible not to let Lloyd's eyes fall on me, so I hid behind the knights tightly to monitor the situation.
Surrounded by people, Lloyd was receiving words of thanks.
"Thank you very much!"
“Thanks to you, we survived.”
Some women were looking at him with red faces.
But Lloyd showed no reaction to their thanks.
Since I was curious about the noble's face
Famous for his handsomeness, I pulled my head out a little and looked at him more carefully.
He's...really handsome.
Tall stature and broad shoulders. Sharp nose and piercing eyes.
In fact, if he wasn't the one trying to kill me, he would be my favorite type of handsome man.
If I were a normal person, I might have approached him to ask for his autograph.
But this is impossible, of course, because meeting this person means death at the very least.
At that moment, my eyes met those of Lloyd, who was looking around.
Huh, damn it.
I quickly hid behind the knight and bowed my head strongly. The knight looked at me in surprise because of my behavior.
Fortunately, Lloyd did not seem to see me, so he gave orders to the people:
“Treat the injured.”
Lloyd said dryly, then walked with his knights towards the corpses of the monsters that were still moving near the wall due to post-death convulsions.
He began examining the bodies carefully.
When I saw that he was focusing in front of the corpses, I hurried back to the tent behind the healers.
All the monsters that appeared at Durkan's Wall were exterminated by one hero.
If it weren't for Lloyd, the people here and I would be lost.
To turn all those monsters into pieces of meat with one hit, what a hero with frightening strength.
If I, who had evil features, appeared before him, it would definitely be a bloody end.
This should never happen.
No one will know if I stay hidden in the tent like this.
I tried to calm my shaking heart.
Let's focus on the work in front of me now.
“No, I’m telling you that a person whose body was shining with power appeared and shouted ‘Heroes Don’t Die!’ And at that moment everyone in the tent was treated!”
The magician was shouting angrily at the investigator.
His magic robe was stained with blood and torn like rags.
It was clear to everyone who saw him that he had recently been seriously injured.
However, the magician's skin visible from under the robe was smooth and did not have a single wound.
The investigator responded with astonishment to the magician’s words:
“Hey, regain consciousness. Something like this would require the arrival of a high-ranking healer in the capital or the High Priest personally! Is your head badly hurt?”
The magician beat his chest tightly and replied:
“No! Can’t you hear the testimony of the other people who were in the tent?”
“Others said they woke up to the sound of an order to get up and found themselves unharmed. You are the only one who gave such testimony.”
"I don't lie!"
“So have you seen an angel? Someone whose body shines brightly!”
In the fifth tent of the imperial healers, a mass healing of all those seriously injured occurred, and the investigators tried to investigate the situation, but no one clearly saw the person who cast this magic.
Since the famous son of Duke Hilderius had exterminated all the monsters, perhaps out of a sense of relief from victory, not many people paid attention to this small miracle.
In the end, the file was closed as a blessing sent by God through an angel.
The place was crowded with people praising and thanking Lloyd.
Because Governor Durkan was influenced by Lloyd, he took out the meat and wine from the warehouses and held a celebration.
In the midst of that joyful atmosphere, I remained hiding in the tent like a mouse, for fear of meeting Lloyd.
