Bab 73: Healing

"Well, if you promise to keep this matter a secret, I will help you out," Sarjah suddenly said, her face blushing.

"Huh? Are you sure?" Lucien asked, surprised by her offer.

"Yes, since you're my patient, I believe it should be my duty to nurse you until you're completely healed. Furthermore, it appears to me that you definitely don't want to remain in such a state, right?"

"Indeed, but is it fine for you?" Lucien added. "How about this, you can request anything from me in return for helping me."

Sarjah contemplated for a moment, her gaze shifting from Lucien to her hands in her lap. Her cheeks colored slightly before she nodded. "That will do."

"Err... shall we begin now?"

Lucien nodded, a sense of anticipation building within him as he eagerly anticipated relief from the electrifying sensation that had plagued him.

"C-can you close your eyes?" Sarjah murmured softly, her voice tinged with embarrassment.
