Chapter 16: Caria Burdnick was a Nasty Wo pain every tihtly, I would feel as if I was pierced by thousand needles on my back muscles My skin on the back was torn Flesh was bare It truly bothered me

I felt so much pain that I couldn't even sleep for a e Burdnick really wanted to tor him? That would make a ridiculous story

I was laid in the cold pave was cold and the air was stuffy When I breathed again, I felt that excruciating pain

「That was a foolish thing to do 」

It was Caria Burdnick I tried to speak to her, but words didn't co caulfed with pain I was visibly in bad shape I had difficulty to open uards beat me

「Good, don't talk You are an idiot There was no need to risk your life like that Idiot Foolish man 」

Only my ears were perfectly functional I heard Caria Burdnick's cursing coh my earlobes Ah, I wanted to refute as much as possible, but I was in no condition to do so

「You can't even open your eyes…Hey, don't open your mouth It will hurt ht me a wooden container My mouth was full with mucus, therefore I tried to spit it out However, as I pushed that bitter ony I had a lot of pain onfrustrated because I was so helpless in this awful situation In addition, I felt even more irritated because the mucus went slowly into inally, this medicinal herb was used to cover wounds, but nowadays, people use it to ets easier this way They say the effect is quicker too Of course, it doesn't provide a complete cure Your wounds won't close with this But it will help 」

Medicinal herbs, I see I used it only as a paste to cover some scars I never knew I could drink this Still, I didn't want to see these herbs ever again Fortunately, s But it was the first tiue and throat as if it was torturing me

「…I'll tie a horse near the hut behind the fort too home The quest is over 」

I felt so treated It was just like Ariene did to e Caria Burdnick never treated nor touchedthat I always remembered was her insults and violence

And noas being treated by the person as mean to me This felt so unrealistic that I started to doubt even ht that I becalad that you can't see thehtly relieved I couldn't describe this feeling, but Caria Burdnick's thin fingertips gently wrapped cloth around my wounds

「You know, I… I think I'll stay here As a knight, I was entrusted to protect the frontline So, that ht to myself, Caria Burdnick continued to speak

Her words were both shaky and delicate at the same time I didn't know much about how this fort works, but it was because of me that she faced this destiny? I was too e attitude showed how noble she was

Ah, I see So, she tried her best to respect her noble upbringing

I knew that Caria Burdnick was not a gentle person to begin with She ht has the same traits as her father when it comes to trample on the weak But, her heart was undeniably noble and honorable

「Okay You're a good is Don't you dare die that easily」

Caria Burdnick said those words when she finished wrapping the cloth around my wounds For a moment, I didn't breathe since I was a bit startled

What was she saying? Of course, I won't die that easily It was not the end of oodbye This fort was not that far away frolory will surely come If I remembered the ti tournan threats I remembered that her abilities would becoiven a prosperous position in the Knight's Order

Even though I knew the future, I wondered why it sounded so strange Her words sounded like an eternal goodbye

Really, I was glad my eyes and face were swollen I didn't want to show her ht now

My throat was sore and it hurt when I opened my mouth to speak So, I couldn't even answer her properly

Her words echoed in the dungeon After she professed all her words, she got up and went away I could hear Caria Burdnick's footsteps as she went further and further away
