Chapter 318: Here's what I think...

Our short maintenance session was paused as I stood up to check on their faces. Alexei is the most beat up one while Ilya is the complete opposite. Aurora is looking at me like it's her fault but by the way Ilya and Nikolas are walking apart, I could mostly guess what happened.

Alexei's right eye is swollen and there's a few bruises on his cheek and arms. His nose is also busted and his lip has been chipped. Blood seemed to have stopped flowing and I think it was taken care of yesterday after they fought. Nikolas' nose on the other hand is the only thing that's busted but there's definitely more hidden and I doubt it would be safe to take them outside.

"You tried to break them up, didn't you?" I looked at Alexei.

"What else am I supposed to do?" Alexei exhaled.

"Well, for starters, you should've let them!" I opened my eyes wide.

"What?! Then-" I cut him off.

"Then we'd have less injured soldiers. Sometimes you just have to let this things happen." I said.
