Capítulo 146: 144: Choosing a candidate

The next time Maria woke up, she felt her head ache with pain. It was pounding with the rhythm of her heart beat and she had no idea why or how it had happened. It just hurt to even think about what she had gone through before this.

And instantly, her mind flashed back to Trisha and Kagemori. If she had been knocked out, then the other must have been knocked out as well. What happened to them? What about Lucas? Was he dead? Had Maria succeeded in killing him?

“You should not try and get up. Your wounds are bad and they will continue to get worse as time goes on. Not to mention, your life force is dangerously down. I told you to be careful, did I not?” Maria felt her body sag at the voice. It was Lady Elma who was looking back at her with a disapproving look on her face.

Maria was barely able to move, but as soon as she did, her eyes landed on the unconscious form of Kagemori. The demoness looked alright, if not a little hurt. At least this was one piece of good news for them.
