Bab 299: Seraphiel's Grumbling

"Thanks, I'm feeling fine now. You can let me off." I told Lucille on whose back I rested. 

"Are you sure?" She asked worriedly.

"Don't look down on our amazing Healer. I'm as good as I've ever been. We gotta finish this round of the Trials and then we can lick our wounds in comfort. That is, if they don't push us to do the second round instantly right after, but I doubt that."

She nodded at my words and I found myself standing with the backs of my three lovely frontliners' backs greeting me. Aurora quickly rushed to me and gave me a teary hug. "I was so worried!" 

"I will pamper you a lot tonight, but focus on the battle for now, Dream." I admonished my plump princess, but I knew that she would be too emotional to remain combat-ready while my life or death was hanging in the air.
