636 Mission 2 (1/2)
Chapter 636: Mission 2
In the bathroom, Isaros was startled. She'd heard her little sister's shrill voice. Not waiting for her hair to dry, she rushed out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel. She ran to her sister in the living room while barefooted.
She saw Arisa squatting by the front door looking nervously at her.
”Sis, it's blood!” Arisa lowered her voice volume. She'd experienced several years of being hunted down with her sister, and naturally, she had more experience than the people her age.
”It came in through the door,” Arisa added.
Isaros nodded. She went over and crouched down. Stretching out her hand, she touched the blood and sniffed.
”Open the door.” She adjusted her body to the best position and said to Arisa.
The latter nodded and carefully opened the door.
Creak…after a very slight sound.
A bloody figure was lying down outside the front door.
Isaros who had prepared herself went over and slightly kicked the bloody figure.
”This man seems a little familiar...”
The bloody man laid motionless on the ground, seemingly unconscious.
”Sis, this man seems to be that Mister Vagabond…?” Arisa said cautiously.
”That Pu-something…” Isaros was reminded of him, the mysterious homeless guy she saw before.
”He must have met some trouble…he lost a lot of blood, we have to help him!” Arisa said. Her compassionate heart was triggered again, especially towards someone she had met before.
”Arisa, we must not cause trouble.” Isaros said seriously, ”The skill this person displayed last time, not even I can deal with it. If there is someone who can injure him to this extent, then that person is not someone we can cope with. This is beyond my ability, we must send him out.”
”But sis, he's hurt this badly…” Arisa also knew this situation was too much for them, but she could not bear to leave this man lying here unconscious with his injuries. ”He's going to die!”
She pleaded, ”After we wake him up, we can let him go, please?”
”This is already more than I can handle,” Isaros said seriously.
”But Sis…he's hurt so badly, he's going to die…” Arisa crouched beside the man and pleaded softly.
Looking at her little sister's teary eyes, Isaros finally relented and nodded.
”Fine, drag him inside quickly, I'll handle the traces of blood!”
”Yay! Sis is the best!” Arisa knew that the situation was very serious. She immediately started dragging the man to the living room slowly.
Isaros got a mop to clean up the blood and sprayed some air freshener. Her action was as though she was used to it. She looked around carefully and only then she closed the door.
”The plan was to meet up with the Thomas family's bro Garen.” Isaros frowned while looking at her little sister wiping the blood from the man's face.
”We must send him to the hospital!” Arisa also frowned, but she was looking at the wounds on the man's body. She used to deal with her sister's wounds and was very experienced in this field.
Carefully inspecting the wounds, Arisa gave out her judgment.
”Seem to be wounds from the claws of a beast. The wounds are deep but they'll heal well.”
She quickly found disinfectant, gauze, and bandages.
”We can only do some first aid and send him to the hospital immediately.”
”No!”
The man suddenly woke up with his eyes wide open and grasped at Arisa's wrist.
”Don't…go…hospital…”
His cleaned up face was handsome yet pale. There was no trace of blood, on the contrary, his face was pale green and traces of black could be seen.
Both his eyes were bloodshot. His gaze contained desire and was locked on Arisa's white wrist, specifically on the blood vessels standing out against her pale skin.
However, rationality stopped him from doing so.
Trying very hard to turn away his line of sight, he loosened his hold on Arisa's hand with an apologetic look. The sisters seemed to be a little frightened.
”Sorry, seems like I scared you just now. My condition right now is very weak, very weak. So sorry, I'll leave immediately. I won't bring trouble to you girls.”
He struggled to stand up but it was useless. As soon as he stood up, with a snap, his body fell to a side.
”Ah!” Arisa exclaimed while covering her mouth.
The man's left knee bone broke with a crack sound and bent into an unnatural angle towards the back.
”Never mind, it's going to heal soon.” The man did not seem to mind his broken bones at all and sat down on the floor. ”It's going to heal very soon… no problem.”
”Your leg…!!” Arisa did not know what to say. Her wide opened eyes kept staring at the indifferent man, her heart in a mess.
Isaros, who stood at the side, had a face of admiration. This kind of injuries was actually disregarded by him. This man, regardless of his past and identity, he was a tough guy worthy of admiration.
”I must leave here immediately, or you girls will be dragged into trouble!” The man revealed a bitter smile while he spoke.
