Yuuya breathed very weakly, his body completely numbed and unable to move.
He had been taken by surprise, never before imagining a situation where he would have been turned against by his own companion. With the wounds in his body re-opened from the rough tackle, each breath he took drained his energy much more than before. He could feel the darkness quickly swallow up his mind, a burning pain surging through his chest as he struggled to breathe, a few of his ribs likely finally snapped from the string of abusive events.
Out of all his pain, his muddied eyes only looked down at the young woman slumped over him in bewilderment and concern. The wounds she suffered only grew worse, her blood now covering his body.
He didn't know what exactly happened, but she was definitely not herself when she attacked him.
What kind of magic was that...?
He grit his teeth as a beat of pain surged, blood dripping down the corner of his lips.
Dammit... I knew I shouldn't have trusted that elf's untested spell... I must've let my desperation get the better of me...
...
His eyes had closed only for what felt like a short moment, but when he opened them again, he was propped up against a rough surface next to Mihara, who appeared to have her wounds wrapped up and the bleeding somewhat stopped. It was a bit of a surprise to see a more conventional method of dealing with injuries, but judging by the make-shift quality and the sight of the open night sky and the trees surrounding them, they have yet moved to the safety of town.
It was a good attempt to stabilize her condition, but seeing how pale she had gotten, he knew time was well running short.
Hearing a sudden noise, his head turned quickly.
His hands already forming rigid claws with his elongated nails, ready to latch onto any threat that came into view, the narrowed eyes eased upon seeing the armored knight from earlier.
He was dragging over the unconscious elf, muttering something under his breath.
He must be the one to have done this...
Yuuya spoke out, a barely audible mutter, "Go to town, hurry... Carry her with you... just... Leave me here with the elf."
Even though his tone didn't sound convincing, his eyes carried a deadly serious gaze.
