259 Blood Stained Hands <5>
Looking at her pale face, Kyle’s fingers were clenched tighter to form a fist. Those b*stards from City H better pray that they all buried by these giant mutated animals or when he found them, he would make them think that dead is better than living.
*cough*
Lucy panted and sat on the ground. She was also exhausted after fighting and venting her emotion like that. She looked at Kyle and pursed her lips. Even though she didn’t really like this young man, but she knew that she could trust him.
At least, to a certain extent.
Kyle cared for Kate and had been taking care of her well all these times. Lucy knew that it would be better for her to trust Kyle to take care of Kate for the time being.
“Please take care of Kate.”
Lucy closed her eyes. She needed to sleep and rest. The battle from before had completely exhaust her.
“I will.” Kyle looked at Kate and sat beside her, bringing her head to his lap as gently as possible, hoping that it would make her more comfortable.
He prayed that all of them would be fine.
.....
Waiting has never been as torturous as this time.
Every seconds felt like years.
Kyle kept on looking at Kate even when he was busy absorbing the fire elements into his body. He wanted to use the healing ability, but he knew that she had absorbed too much of it when using the reverse healing.
Thus, he didn’t know what he was supposed to do.
He couldn’t do reverse healing and could only do normal healing. The blood contract that he had with Kate didn’t let him do reverse healing, so what he saw and what Kate saw were different.
But even when doing normal healing, he would be using her ability.
And with Kate in this situation, if he used the healing ability, would her body be fine?
After hesitating, Kyle decided to try healing Dylan bit by bit. The warm current entered Dylan’s body, healing his body at speed visible to the naked eyes. When it was done, Dylan’s breathing had returned to normal.
Kyle then extended his hand towards Jake while watching Kate quietly. Her face was still flushed and she looked uncomfortable, but Kyle didn’t know what he was supposed to do. The connection he had with her was simply that ridiculous blood contract that he didn’t even know what to do with it.
When Kyle finished healing Lucy too, Kate was still sleeping.
He put his hand on her forehead and realized that she was still burning. Kyle sighed and took out compress from the space and put it on her forehead.
Kate was struggling inside her dream.
And the one outside couldn’t help her at all.
Time passed quietly outside.
When it was nighttime, they still continued to move forward. Lotte was tired as hell and Kyle replaced her to drive while she slept and Marc also rested while the stupid dog Robby helped Kyle to stay guard.
Even when Robby was sleeping, this dog still had terrifying keen senses of danger. Once there was something strange, Robby will definitely warn them. Even though they didn’t want to only use the dog, that was the best option for the time being.
They were all still very tired and battered after the battle in City H.
And with so many giant mutated animals on the road that was rushing towards City H, they had been fighting from time to time too.
This made them wonder whether City H had gems or something like that.
The number of giant mutated animals that was trying to head towards City H was simply ridiculous. It was so many that they didn’t know what these giant mutated animals were chasing after anymore.
But they couldn’t care about it.
They just wanted to stay away and figured out a way to rest and recover their strength as fast as possible.
In the morning, they switched position again.
Thankfully they had enough ration to eat, so they were not so tired.
Lucy wake up and helped to stand guard while Lotte was driving. It couldn’t be helped that not all of them could drive.
“City E is within a few hours of journey. Are we going there?”
“Depends on how my old man respond to the pressure from above.” Kyle took a deep breath. After a day’s time, he was calmer than before, but his calm just felt like a calm before the storm.
The matter of the reverse healer was something that also involved the military. Since his father was also part of the military, Kyle was not entirely sure about the current condition of City E.
Would his father listen to those nonsenses or not?
Not to mention, there were still Kate’s parents in City E that might have to listen to the harsh words that were directed to their daughter.
It wouldn’t be peaceful in City E.
With their current condition, it was estimated that they couldn’t do anything to help either.
Going back to City E will only make them become the target of these people and make the pressure towards City E even greater.
“We can’t go back?” Marc asked quietly.
“Do you regret it?” Kyle looked at the young man. Marc only joined them because of the chance meeting in that university back then. They were not so close to the point that they had to follow each other all the time.
In any case, if Marc wanted to, he could get out of the Black team.
“No.”
Marc shook his head. When he saw the treatment of these people towards reverse healers, he was also very angry. Just because an unwanted mutation occurred, they were blamed and put on the pillar to be scolded and used.
He had already interacted with Kate and the others for some time.
Thus he knew that they would never actually hurt others unless it crossed their bottom limit or for self defense.
He couldn’t blame Kate for killing those people in City H.
And he will never regret following Kyle and this group of his.
