Chapitre 74: The One Behind the Curtains

"How is she?" Lahaina asks as he walks towards his subject's room.

"We have already tended to her physical wounds. We are seeing if they have done anything to her spirit, as you mentioned that their weapons is deimos-related. She's right here," replies the group's healer. 

The two are now outside the door of the group's healing room. 

"Edwin Jimenez…she was not returned to you because her task is over. She is still an instrument of your enemy. Be wary of approaching her," Lahaina remembers a certain interesting woman's warning, her gift of gratitude, she says. 

"Cast a barrier around her first," he orders.

"Sir?" the healer asks, dumbfounded by the order.

His commander merely looks at him.

"Of course, as ordered."

The man enters first, casting a barrier spell on the sleeping Edwin first. Then he heads out to announce that the wounded comrade is ready.
