"Nooo! Noooo! this can't be happening," Daphnia had her eyes fully red, while her whole body looked like it lost its colour with how pale she was.
"Brother!" Delving also quickly came in her night dress and held Velian by his shoulders and looked at Akiyo, who was almost on the verge of crying.
"What's happening?" Sariya questioned while Elda held onto Velian's body and supported him.
Akiyo looked at everyone with his eyes turning to find his sister and saw her eyes filled with tears.
pαпdα-ňᴏνêι·сóМ "We got attacked by an unknown entity and brother tried to rescue us," He answered them, but even he didn't know how his hand got decapitated.
He looked at Naomi hoping, she would answer the question but he noticed how her body was almost on the verge of collapsing.
"Sister!" Akiyo quickly held her without letting her fall and kept her next to Velian.
He didn't know why but he started seeing Naomi as a big sister after all they went through together.
Velian opened his eyes and looked at the girls with a painful look and muttered.
"Don't worry, we are ok- *Cough," Velian coughed out some blood freaking out everyone in the room.
If this was a random man or soldier none of them would even freak out instead, they would try their best to rescue that person but by easing Velian, that powerful Velian in this condition, everyone just froze in fear.
"You're not- someone quickly bring a healer, we have healers right? Contact guild if you want," Sariya ordered but Velian quickly stopped Delviny, who was about to leave the room.
"Don't need! I can heal myself, but listen-" With his voice trembling a little, he looked at Delviny and Lyra at the same time.
"Lyra, quickly get ready to deal with the aftermath of this incident, don't let people in the town know who I fought with, just tell a bunch of high-ranking mercenaries," Looking at Lyra, Velian asked while sensing his eyes to Delviny.
"Delviny, please go and see what happened to that demon and check every place for something like black smoke, if you encounter it don't fight just come back,"
Both of them had hesitant faces to leave Velian, but they didn't have a chance to stay there since both of the tasks were really important.
"Damn it, if not for Naomi and Luna, I would have ended up like Yuvanna dragon, what the hell was it trying to do to me?" Velian questioned while looking at Naomi, who was resting next to him while Daphnia and Sariya waited close to him.
"I'm sorry for worrying you two," Looking at their dark eyes, Velian muttered as he felt really bad for them.
*Sob
"Don't do anywhere dangerous without telling me, You promised you won't go anywhere alone," Daphnia said while dropping her tears on Velian's remaining hand.
"Mother, I didn't know about this honestly, I never thought a single battle with a criminal organisation would turn into something this big," Velian didn't want Daphnia to misunderstand anything, so he quickly explained it to her.
"I will follow you next time, so don't go alone," She said and caressed Velian's left hand.
Seeing her son without a hand, her heart was still in despair.
"Where's Elda?" Looking at Sariya, Velian questioned since it was unusual for her not to be here.
"She went to the kitchen to make something for you since you lost a lot of blood, I think she's worried," Sariya nor Elda didn't know Velian didn't have any of those problems.
"I'm fine, I might not be able to fight for a while, but If I just focus my power on this hand, it will grow within a week, I'm not human, Sariya," Veloan said and looked at her with a smile.
"I surpassed humanity a long time ago, but if this happened to one of you, even I won't be able to heal you, for me sealing an injury or some blood loss is possible," Then he looked at Naomi, who was still sleeping.
"But even I can't grow your lost limbs,"
Sariya and Daphnia both felt relieved to see Naomi harmless.
"If not for her, I might have already done for, she quickly said what I said and acted upon it without even questioning me, so this girl deserves that food," Velian said and caressed her head with his left hand and saw Elda returning with four bowls.
Elda carefully balanced the steaming pot of soup in her hands as she made her way over to the couch where Velian and Naomi lay side by side. The injured looked up at her with grateful expressions as she set the pot down on the coffee table in front of them.
"Thank you so much, Elda," Velian said, his voice hoarse from his injuries.
Naomi nodded in agreement after opening her eyes feeling hungry, her face still pale from the pain she had endured.
"You're a lifesaver," she said, giving Elda a weak smile.
Sariya and Daphnia watched the scene with wide grins on their faces. They had been worried about their lover and one cock sister, but seeing them both together like this gave them a sense of comfort.
As Elda ladled out the soup into bowls and handed them to Velian and Naomi, Sariya and Daphnia couldn't help but feel a sense of warmth in their hearts. This was what being part of a family was all about - looking out for one another, even in the darkest of times.
The group settled into a comfortable silence as they ate their soup, the only sounds in the room were the occasional slurp or cough from Velian and Naomi. But even in their injured states, the two adventurers seemed to be in good spirits, exchanging jokes and stories with their friends.
As the night wore on, Elda finally announced that it was time for everyone to get some rest. Velian and Naomi nodded in agreement, their eyes growing heavy with exhaustion. Sariya and Daphnia helped the injured settle in for the night, making sure they were comfortable and had everything they needed.
As Elda turned off the lights and headed to her own room, she couldn't help but feel a sense of pride in her friend and lover. They may have been battered and bruised, but they were still together, still fighting. And with each other by their side, they knew they could face anything that came their way.
