novelxo Chapter 175 Of Course We Remember You!
-----
(Back to Sylphy's POV)
Ninhursag had finally woken up. After my mother had put all the effort that she could into healing her wounded body and stopping her internal hemorrhage. I had grown very worried to the point that I didn't realized when tears began to come out of my eyes… I felt a bit embarrassed when she woke up and everything was okay. I think the other kids infected me with their sorrow…
But deep down I also felt pretty bad, was she like this because of us? Should we had gone out if this would had happened? I was concerned that perhaps because she wanted to protect us from the giant army of Goblins that we never saw approaching, that she ended this wounded.
Later on, I learned that it was kind of like that, but not as much, it was more like she ended pushing herself to her limits because she was really immersing herself in her hunt, or something like that… it seems that Ninhursag doesn't take care of herself as much as someone would want her to do so, which ends up in her pushing her own body to her limits.
My parents and Aquarina's parents began to reprimand her a lot, calling her a reckless and beastly girl. Although she might be apparently older than some of them except my mother, she was sitting there while feeling a bit sad, I think she understood that she had gone all out.
And well, she had gone too hard, because she was on the verge of death. Father had told me that she almost died when she was attacked by this entire army of goblins with four Goblin Champions on them…
Her wounds can be easily taken when she is in her monster or beast forms, but after she goes back to her human form, all these wounds remain and become even worse within the body of a human, making her almost die out of many lethal wounds accumulating over her body.
She ended with a few bones broken, her lungs were perforated, she had a major contusion in her head, one of her eyes was torn apart and leaking large quantities of blood, her nose was broken, and more… Father said that she was covered in blood, and he had to hurriedly cauterize her wounds with his flames and bring her here for mother to save her life.
Now, thanks to my mother's amazing healing magic, she was back up together and in one piece, even her eye had healed, my mother ability to heal wounds was incredible, the mystical power of high-tiered Light and Life Magic was simply sublime… Was there anything it couldn't heal? Well, she was the Saint for a reason.
Nonetheless, as Ninhursag opened her eyes, I couldn't help but feel very happy, Zack and Aquarina at our side also felt rather happy she was doing okay.contemporary romance
Although we had only seen her once, she had created an impact in us and gave us the impression of a big sister figure, I was really looking forward to see her one day, so seeing her in the verge of dying was really sad, it felt as if destiny didn't wanted me to met her anymore and know her better.
She was a very interesting woman, I just wanted to know more about her… After we realized what she had been doing for Zack, acting as if she were his mother, it also hit us hard, it would had been quite horrible if she were to die in front of him…
After everyone reprimanded her, including us, she sighed and smiled gently.
"I am sorry… I-I didn't meant to worry all of you… I didn't realized you worried so much for me…" sighed Ninhursag.
"Of course we worry! Why wouldn't we worry?!" asked Aquarina.
"Yeah! Don't go killing yourself in the process of helping us…" sighed Zack.
"Was it all provoked by us? I am sorry if you had to put yourself in such a situation…" I sighed.
"N-No, children… Don't worry about… At some point you were able to escape, and I should had escaped as well, not fight so many monsters at once… The Goblin Champion and the possible Goblin King were also boosting these goblins strength a lot, making it more difficult than it should had been originally…" sighed Ninhursag.
"Hm, for now, you stay here and rest, okay?" asked Faylen.
"Yeah, we'll bring you something to eat." Said Nepheline.
"Hm." Said Shade while nodding.
"E-Everyone…" Ninhursag said, her eye seemed to shine a bit as she was containing her tears, it seems that she was very moved by how everyone worried about her.
As my parents and Aquarina's parents walked outside the tent, we ended sitting around Ninhursag over her bed, while she hugged us with her big and strong arms. She was even more covered by scars than before, but she seemed healthy and wasn't with a fever anymore.
"A-Are you really okay, Ninhursag?" asked Zack.
"Yeah… I am tired and I think the broken bones might take a bit more to regenerate… But I am doing fine now." Said Ninhursag, petting Zack's head.
"Really?" asked Aquarina.
"Yes, Aquarina… I am surprised you kids remember me, we only met once some weeks ago…" said Ninhursag.
"Of course we remember, who wouldn't remember you? You're pretty unique… Where would we find someone capable of changing appearance into beasts like you?" I asked.
"Ah… Hahaha! I guess I am not as dull as I thought… My powers are always taken for granted to me, so I never think of them as anything special." Said Ninhursag.
"Ninhursag, sorry for making you do this though…" said Zack.
Ninhursag smiled back at us as she petted our heads and suddenly kissed each one of our foreheads lovingly.
"Don't worry… Being with you children really soothes my heart… That I was able to protect you is the important thing here, it makes me happy to see you all well." She said.
