Science/Magic 29 Ying 2

When she opened her eyes, she realized she was inside a strange house.

The house had metallic walls, and a strange light stone was emitting dim light. She could see a table, a chair, and a small kitchen nearby, but strangely, they seemed fixed to the ground.

Looking down, she saw she was sleeping in the most comfortable bed she had slept in many years. Unfortunately, the state of her body made it hard for her to enjoy the comfy bed.

"… Where am I?" She muttered groggily.

An unexpected voice replied to her.

"Finally awake, huh."

The girl was startled. She looked up and saw a blue-haired boy standing in the door. The boy looked at her with a smile and walked inside.

The girl sat up nervously, but the boy ignored her and walked towards the table. He grabbed a pen-like object and started to write something in a book.

"You slept for three days." He said without raising his face. "Your body was filled with injuries, and you were starved, and dehydrated. Plus, you were completely spent. To be honest, it's a miracle you survived like that."

"… Where is it?" The girl asked.

"My tent." Replied the boy. "I brought you here and gave you an intravenous solution and smalls amounts of water. Now that I think about it, you must be hungry. Wait a moment, I will get you something to eat."

"W-Wait." The girl stopped him and grabbed her head. Her headache was becoming worse. "Who are you? Why did you save me?"

The boy was stunned. He then smiled and stared at her. "My name is Bloed. And it's normal to help someone that needs help, right? Besides, I did not do much. Regina was the one that took care of you." He then left the tent to get her something to eat.

The girl looked at the boy leave and furrowed her brows. Was saving her not much? Furthermore, he even treated her injuries and healed her body. She did not know what an intravenous was, but she knew the state of her body before collapsing. Even a powerful healing mage would have needed to try incredibly hard to save her.

Thinking about it, she realized that the boy was strange. His hair was bright blue, the same as his eyes. But his eyes were strange. She had never seen pupils like his. They were bright blue and seemed filled with uncountable lines and strange symbols.

To be honest, he looked very strange... And handsome.

Besides, she could not feel mana from him.

His name was also strange. Bloed? What does it mean?

Shaking her head, the girl stopped thinking about it. The important thing was that she was alright. She did not waste her family's sacrifice dying in the jaws of a beast.

The boy did not take long to return, but this time, he was not alone. An incredibly beautiful girl was with him, so beautiful that the girl on the bed doubted her eyes. It was impossible for someone so perfect to exist.

Golden eyes, platinum hair, completely pale skin, expressionless face, and a pet.i.te body. The girl was perfection itself. She stood there quietly, as though nothing could affect her.

She arrived behind the boy, following him respectfully. When she entered, the first thing she did was to look at the girl and frown.

"Master, how did she recover so fast? My scans told me she would sleep for one week."

"It was mana, probably." Bloed said. "Her bloodline is also a bit special. I think it has a regenerative factor."

"Oh? It explains her fast recovery. Okay, I'll prepare something nutritious for her.

"Please, Regina."

The girl then turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

Only when the Regina was gone, the girl in the bed reacted. She was even more surprised now.

Not only was this girl so beautiful that it was unbelievable, but her strength was the real deal. Although the girl could not feel any mana coming from her, the instincts in her blood warned her that the silver-haired girl was a monster.

A complete monster. More terrifying than anything she had met before.

"She is Regina, my partner." Bloed said when he saw the girl looking at Regina. "Although she looks a bit cold, she is very kind, so don't worry."

"Master please, don't go around speaking badly of me." Regina snorted.

"Sorry, sorry, it was a joke." The boy smiled cheerfully. He then turned towards the girl with a curious expression. "By the way, it's the first time I met a demon. Where are you from? I thought we were the only intelligent beings in the exiled lands."

"… My village was destroyed." The girl thought for a moment before speaking.

"Huh?"

"All the villages were destroyed. Monsters attacked the villages and killed everything in sight. My village was the last, and I was the only survivor." The girl bit her lips and clenched her hands. Bloed could see the tears falling from her eyes, hitting the bed drop after drop."

"… Sorry about it." He said after a long silence.

"Don't worry." The girl shook her head and forced a smile out. "… I felt better now that I talked about it."

Bloed just sighed.

Although according to the girl's words...

"I thought we killed that monster." Bloed wrinkled his brows.

"Huh?"

"The monster controlling the other monsters to destroy the villages." Bloed explained. "Mother and I met it once and mother killed it. It looks like it was not the only one, though."

The girl smiled bitterly. "It's normal. The exiled lands are filled with monstrosities and creatures of nightmare. But your mother is very strong. We knew that the monsters were being controlled, but we never even discovered where the controller was."

Bloed nodded. It was normal. Even t.i.to and his mother only discovered it when the monster decided to attack personally.

"By the way, I have not asked about your name."

The girl lowered her head and hesitated slightly.

A few seconds later, her melodious voice answered.

"… Liu Ying. My name is Liu Ying."
