Chapter 42: Forced parting
Open his eyes again.
How many times has this been in these days? How many days is it now?
Heliga didn't know.
Every time I wake up with severe pain and weakness all over, I will fall asleep again after a daze.
However, this time seems to be different from before.
The sharp pain has basically disappeared, and the weakness is still there, but I can do it by gently pinching my fingers. What you see when you raise your head is no longer a vague picture, but an elegant ceiling.
"Archbishop! He is awake!" Before he came to observe the surroundings carefully, a familiar and unfamiliar voice sounded. Familiar is because these days I can always think of this sound in a daze, and strange because I don't know who this sound belongs to.
However, judging by what she said, this should be the church.
"Come here, here... I didn't expect those potions to be so effective..." There was a small footstep outside the door, "Go and call Martha's child to come over, she is almost dead worried."
"Okay." The woman lifted the skirt of the nun's dress and hurriedly left.
The archbishop came to Heliga and checked his condition in detail. Then he said with satisfaction: "Very good, it has been completely cured, now you only need a few days of rest to return to normal."
"Thank you for your help, Archbishop." Heliga said laboriously, "I know very well the injuries I received... 80% of you used the legendary church secret method, right?"
"Hehe, I used the secret method in your mouth, yes, but it is the strange bottles and jars in your package that really play a big role."
"Are those potions?" Heliga felt clear, but her heart sank: "So, didn't the other injured members use it?"
"No." The archbishop expressed regret. "I have never seen these medicines, but after careful analysis of their ingredients for a long time, they confirmed that they are not harmful, and when your head promised that these things were intended for treatment. , I just used it for you... I didn’t expect the effect to be so good. As for the members... the lightly injured ones have basically no major problems, and the severely injured ones have been transferred to the supervision of the town hospital. room."
"Really..." A big rock fell in his heart, and Heliga let out a suffocating breath, but then, another heavy feeling pressed on his heart.
Just as the archbishop was about to ask something more, an urgent voice came from the door: "Heliga!"
Should go to the prestige-it is Martha. The girl who joined the group for a short time but was very good at back-up work in medical care rushed in and looked at the boy in front of her with concern. Seeing this situation, the archbishop thoughtfully did not continue to ask more questions, but only asked Heliga to rest more, and then left the room.
"Martha." Seeing that the girl in front of him was okay, Heliga felt a little better, "It's fine if you are okay."
"Hey... after all, I didn't go to the front line." Martha scratched her head and smiled, but Heliga saw that she was reluctant.
The two chatted for a long time without a word. It's just that the two of them each have some worries, some words that they dare not say... this increasingly reluctant, more and more awkward chat, finally came to a cold stage.
Suddenly, Martha seemed unbearable, staring blankly at the young man in front of her: "Heliga, the leader, he... is gone."
"Gone?" At this moment Heliga noticed--or forced to notice, the content of the chat between the two people just now, intentionally or unintentionally, avoided the leader of "Erengemu" Vulcan, but now they are talking. When he arrived, Heliga still forced herself to ask: "What happened to him?"
"He left everyone behind, leaving only a few letters, and then left without looking back." Martha's eyes were already red, and she took out a piece of paper that was crumpled. I read it over and over several times, "See it for yourself."
————————————————————————————————-
If I say that before reading the letter, I just gradually recovered from the numbness of a coma and felt faintly uncomfortable.
So, after reading it, Heliga even felt that her heart had been picked up by the invisible giant hand, and he might be squeezed severely at any time.
In the letter, Vulcan blamed himself. He said that he was too stupid to think that he could bring these children and rookies who had never been on the real battlefield, had never experienced the courage and cruelty of big figures, to provoke the "iron and blood" who had gradually become the empire. Prime Minister".
Because of this, I feel ashamed of the injured and dead members. I was dazzled by the temptation of money and fame. I forgot the tradition of the "Ehlengum" with the purpose of taking risks. Even a little unreasonably, relying on myself The power suppressed all opposition.
Today, bitter fruit has grown. Because of the attempted attack on the prime minister, "Erengemu" has been officially wanted by the imperial government. Whether it is for everyone's safety or because of guilt and shameless goodbye to the group members, as the group leader, Vulcan announced in the letter that "Erengemu" had been dissolved. After leaving this letter, he left quietly one night, not knowing where he went.
"Head, he is too much..." Masha sobbed, "I just abandoned everyone like this and left alone... Are you, don't you?"
Heliga was silent. Under Martha's puzzled eyes, he finally said with difficulty: "This matter...I also have no small responsibility."
"Huh? But Heliga saved us—" Martha said impatiently, but Heliga reached out for her to be quiet. When Martha calmed down, he continued: "I have reminded your regiment of the danger of the "Iron-Blooded Prime Minister"... but he was so overwhelmed by inexplicable joy and pride that he couldn't hear anything. In fact, if I confided the truth to her, I might be able to recover the tragedy.
"Martha, listen. My identity is not an ordinary imperial warrior. It is so simple to travel out. The reason why I know the strength of the prime minister better than you is because I am the "nobleman" of the empire. The battle between the nobles and the reformists has already begun, and the nobles of the empire have been able to appreciate this since they were young. But out of my own selfishness, I concealed this. If I had not concealed the information, maybe I could persuade him to change his mind.
"After that, on the battlefield, my actions also caused heavy losses to other team members. The team leader is an excellent hunter and the person most familiar with the battlefield. Originally, all instructions should be issued by him, everyone Should unite around him and listen to his instructions. However, I used a trick that I thought of temporarily, trying to fight, but I didn't expect that stealing chickens would not lose money. Instead, everyone was passive.
"There is one more thing, that is, I have never explained to you the "pharmaceuticals" I brought in detail... In fact, they are all extremely effective things for wounds. If they can be used flexibly, they should be of great help... But In fact, no one used it at all, and it was me who ultimately benefited from it. "
Masha was stunned. From the moment Heliga uttered the first keyword, her brain fell into a state of high-speed processing but still stuck. At this moment, Heliga was still entangled in the last thing in her heart: that strange "power."
In the final analysis, everything I do is to control this strange "power", and then strive to use this power to protect myself and the people I cherish in the unknown future.
However, this "power" was unexpectedly learned this time.
All this may be just a cruel joke.
