Chapter 43: Aftermath

"Ah! Keiko! I'm going to fall!"

Due to Keiko's pulling action, Jeanne's fingers that were barely hung on the outer edge of the raised rock suddenly slipped off.

Just when she thought she would fall down, a tremendous force pulled her around her waist, saving her from the horrible fate that was awaiting her on the ground if she was really to fall.

It was Keiko. She hugged Jeanne at a critical moment!

The other soldiers were patting their chests and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But at this moment, Keiko's expression was getting worse; her veins nearly burst out; her handsome face was flushed red, and her body was trembling.

She was now supporting the weight of two people with only three fingers of her left hand. And due to Jeanne's sudden fall, a huge pressure instantly increased on the fingers of her left hand, making her fingers numb and cracked.
