"Teacher Mia, how is Qingqing?"
In the corridor, after a long wait, the trio finally saw the female teacher in a long white coat come out.
She is not only a wizard, but also a doctor who masters the treatment methods for ordinary humans.
Since injuries caused by monsters cannot be cured by magic, the academy also recruits some ordinary doctors.
As a doctor and a witch herself, Mia has a high prestige in the academy.
The beautiful woman with blond hair and blue eyes smiled and said, "There's no danger to her life. Don't worry, my three classmates."
Xuan Mian asked, "What are the specific circumstances?"
Mia paused, and the three of them noticed something and asked immediately.
She finally spoke, "Classmate Shi is in very poor health. I'm sure you all knew that a long time ago, right? But after I gave her a thorough examination, I found that her condition was even worse than it appeared."
Shen Jueyu's breathing tightened: "Why is this happening?"
Mia said, "It's a curse."
"Curse?" The unexpected answer made even Yu Fengshi look sideways.
"Yes," Mia said, "someone cursed her. This curse won't kill her, but it will keep her in a state of dying all the time. Every second of her life is shrouded in the shadow of death."
All three of them were stunned.
Every second is shrouded in the shadow of death?
What does that feel like?
What does it feel like when a person dies?
Fear, unwillingness, regret, escape.
Is this the state I'm in all the time...?
Xuan Mian asked with difficulty: "Teacher Mia, can she sense it herself?"
Mia looked a little strange. "Of course she can. After all, her whole body is covered with cursed lines. Those lines are cutting her skin and burning her blood every second."
“…”
At this moment, everyone, including Yu Fengshi, fell into a long and suffocating silence.
Mia comforted them: "Don't be sad, this curse is not entirely harmful. Because she is cursed with 'near death', even if she receives that kind of injury, she will not really die."
"I'll try to find information and break the curse. However, I have to treat a patient later, so I'll be leaving now. Please take good care of her."
"Thank you, Teacher Mia."
The blonde woman walked away.
The three of them stood outside the room like statues, and no one dared to go in.
The scene not long ago is still vivid in my mind...
The ferocious attack of the eighth-level monster destroyed the magic attached to the girl's clothes, and in just two seconds, the girl's white clothes were dyed red.
Not only the wound, but all other parts of the body were soaked by the inexplicable flow of blood.
In an instant, the innocent girl turned into a bloody person.
The three of them hurriedly smashed the jade token and left the foggy sea with Shi Wuqing.
"Is that blood due to a curse?" Xuan Mian was the first to break the silence.
No one answered him, and even Shen Jueyu, who was always loud and overly lively, didn't make a sound.
Xuan Mian placed his hand in front of the door, but he didn't have the courage to push it open.
So... that's why Qingqing doesn't wear school uniform and instead always wears her own clothes?
She hid her wounds tightly, and no matter whether she was facing Chen Jueyu's hug or Yu Fengshi's troubles, she only showed a gentle smile. Therefore, no one would have thought that beneath her smile were scars all over her body.
For her, perhaps even breathing was painful - the slight floating of her body would tear her blood vessels, causing blood to gush out.
"So... this is why she was stiff the first time I hugged her..." Chen Jueyu was like a child who had done something wrong, tears flashing in his eyes, and he lowered his head to look at his toes.
Things have developed to this point because of her.
If she hadn't made this attempt, Qingqing wouldn't have been hurt.
Qingqing's life was already so difficult...
Yu Fengshi turned sideways and glanced at the towering tower in the distance. He didn't know what he was thinking, but he said, "Even if it's a level eight monster, she shouldn't be completely powerless to fight back."
Xuan Mian was startled: "What do you mean?"
Isn't Yu Fengshi saying that Qingqing got hurt on purpose?
"I don't know either... Let's go in." Yu Fengshi retracted his gaze, passed Xuan Mian, and pushed open the door.
He didn't figure it out either.
Because... at that moment, this guy's desire to protect Xiaoyu was absolutely genuine.
Anyone who has seen that scene cannot remain indifferent to the concern.
…
When Shi Wu woke up, the severe pain in his shoulder overwhelmed the sensations in other parts of his body.
She didn't even have the strength to move a finger.
My eyelashes trembled as I opened them, and I was met with a pair of eyes full of complexity.
In those eyes, there was guilt, doubt, questioning, and disbelief...
It's so complicated that I can't tell which emotion is the most dominant.
"You're awake!" Shen Jueyu's face first flashed with surprise, and then he was suddenly stunned. He couldn't stand firmly, staggered two steps, and almost fell.
"What's wrong?"
The unusual movement alarmed the other two people, and Xuan Mian quickly supported Shen Jueyu.
Shen Jueyu didn't say anything, but his eyes were red and a fine mist spread rapidly.
Xuan Mian followed her gaze and met a pair of crimson, gem-like eyes.
One.
The dark, empty eye sockets swallowed up all the colors around them in an instant. Xuan Mian's face was pale, and like Chen Jueyu, he stood there with cold hands and feet.
After a while, he finally found his voice: "Qing... Qingqing..."
Isn't it said that blindfolding is a family tradition?
What's this?
What’s going on with this eye???
