BXBX NOVEL Chapter 438: Talk
Rain probably could find him once he heals completely, so there was no point in hurrying. He returned to the earth chamber, flying in the sky, and then they flew home.
In the end, Rain wished that he could hide the fact from his family about the wounds, but he couldn\'t lie straight to their face… his lower half was still dormant, but eventually, it would be back to normal.
"It shouldn\'t take long. I am about to master the Medic Path and unlock a new one," Terra declared. "I am expecting a lot from the next."
It seemed that Terra could read Rain\'s mind based on his expressions… they have been working together for a while, so it was natural. Maybe Rain needed to start working on his poker face.
In the end, Rain slowed down to give Terra as much time as possible to keep healing him, and they arrived at home when the sun was rising… Much to his surprise, Rain found Jori and Roan fighting with their swords.
Before they could notice him, Rain decided to approach slowly and see it for a while. It would have been awesome if he had some popcorn…
Roan charged with all his might and swung down his sword. Jori swung his sword vertically and easily repelled the attack, but Roan kept swinging down his sword faster and faster. Jori was unable to repel the strikes with his own attacks and assumed a defensive stance. Sparks spread in the area alongside the sound of steel as both of them kept pushing each other to their limits.
"They are fighting for real…" Terra furrowed her eyebrows.
"Relax, they are making a lot of noise, but no one is coming to check things, so this is only training," Rain said.
In the end, Roan had more experience, and he was faster as well, so it didn\'t take long for him to pull his sword at the last moment and then disarm Jori with a reverse grip strike that made his sword fly and spin in the air. That was probably some sort of advanced technique since it was executed with extreme speed and precision.
Jori let out a sigh and then frowned when his sword didn\'t fall, but then he found it in Rain\'s hands.
"Rain! Terra!" Jori said and then showed a large smile.
"It seems that you guys are doing something interesting early in the morning," Rain said and then they landed.
Rain wished that they didn\'t come to do that while they were covered in sweat, but Jori and Roan tried to hug him. Fortunately, Terra showed her mainly sided and protected him.
"He is wounded, so don\'t touch him," Terra said. Enjoy new stories from mvl
Jori made a lot of noise, so it didn\'t take long for everyone to eventually show up with their bed hair and sleepy faces. Since too many people tried to hug Rain, Terra spilled the beans before he could prepare the terrain.
"He is better and will recover soon, but he can\'t move his legs yet," Terra added. "He is only standing because of his magic."
Rain facepalmed and stayed like that for a while since the eyes of everyone hurt… eventually, things calmed down a bit when they heard that before, his whole body was paralyzed… Terra\'s unrivaled healing skills would return to normal in no time.
"My heart can\'t take much bad news…" Leiah said. "I try so hard to fight the wrinkles, but you aren\'t cooperating, Rain."
"Maybe I can delay the report about the mission for a few days, then," Rain shrugged.
"It is useless, we know that you enraged the king already and that he was determined to sacrifice thousands for it," Roan explained.
"How?" Rain furrowed his eyebrows in surprise.
"Lotto arrived yesterday, someone alerted him that he could be targeted, fortunately, the girls wanted some clothes that they left on your home, so heard about that as well and brought him with us," Roan replied.
"I guess It can\'t be helped… I will tell you the heroic adventures of Rain fighting dragons and crazy humans while being helped by his sidekick, Terra."
"I am more like the cleaner of the messes that you leave behind, since your body always ends up in a mess," Terra said.
Rain recounted the details of the mission; a bit of fatigue was evident in his voice as he spoke. Terra, who had tirelessly provided her healing support for nearly three days without rest, gradually fell into a deep slumber.
As Rain\'s report was given, the expressions on the faces of those gathered around were a mix of concern and apprehension. The situation remained far from resolved, and the impending decisions weighed heavily on their minds.
Notably, Seadir was absent at this early hour, but the sea folk and he would undoubtedly receive the news and updates when the time was right. The challenges they faced were daunting, and the uncertainty of what lay ahead continued to cast a shadow over their group.
"... Killing Revan will make father hate you until the end of his days," Esmeralda said while showing a worried expression. "He was a true friend for him… probably the only one that he ever had."
Roan studied Rain for a while, wondering if Rain killed Revan so readily out of revenge… he didn\'t want to think that his son would do that, but the words that Revan said about Leiah made Rain forget all the restraining that he tried to keep.
"Why do you get all the fun?" Reca asked while checking the dragon scales. "I want to fight another dragon soon."
"Be reasonable…" Asche facepalmed. "We already have too much on our plate…"
