Capítulo 92: A new dungeon discovery (18)
(Tess's POV - still)
"Kiera!"
Even though my ankle was screaming at me in pain I jumped down from the hill and ran to Kiera as fast as I possibly could.
"Kiera!"
"Stay down, you stupid creature." Kiera panted as she wobbled a bit.
Blood was dripping down her face and her body was battered and bruised everywhere with multiple cuts and gashes across her skin. Her elbow on her left arm was dislocated with blood trickling down from her shoulder, dripping off at her finger tips. Her clothing was ripped with patches of blood on and showing lots of her skin. Her leg had a long cut that ran from her ankle to her thigh which was deep, almost showing bone but not quite.
Her right hand was on the hilt of her sword which was pierced into the head of the ogre that laid lifelessly below her.
Blood spattered all over the site of her battle with the ogre and the ogre itself. The ogre had multiple scorch marks all over along with long and deep cuts that still spilled blood. It's arm was cut off, so was it's right leg below the knee. It's eyes were pierced through and it's body was battered.
'I can't tell who's body looks worse. Other than the fact one is currently dead and the other is dying.'
"Kiera-"
Kiera looked up at the sky and then tilted her head to face me, "Hm? Tess, why are you here? Are you okay, your ankle doesn't look too good."
"How can you still worry about me when you are in that state you idiot!" I ran over to her just as she was about to fall over.
Thankfully I managed to catch her, I picked her up and carried her. I could feel her heavy breathing brush past my cheeks, tickling me.
"Why shouldn't I worry about you? You're important to me." Kiera looked directly at me with that same emotionless look despite the amount of damage her body went through.
"Worry about yourself first! You need to get healed and quickly!" Tears were building up in the corner of my eyes, threatening to fall.
"There is no reason to cry, Tess, I'll be fine. Don't worry." She said to me, not breaking eye contact.
"How could I not worry?! SCARLET!!" I screamed at the top of my lungs in hopes of scarlet hearing me despite being far away.
I started walking to where Scarlet should be and winced in pain.
'Ugh my ankle hurts so bad but it's nowhere near as bad as Kiera. Deal with it Tess. Kiera is dying right now, you need to go to Scarlet, she should be able to heal her.. right?'
Unfortunately for me, Kiera saw me in pain.
"Put me down Tess. I can move by myself." She said as she shuffled in my arms.
"What nonsense are you going on about? Look at yourself and tell me you can walk."
Kiera directed her gaze back at me, "I cannot walk but I can use wind magic to fly. Sort of."
I gave her a look saying I didn't believe her.
"I'll prove it then." She said as she started to hover out of my arms.
She then moved herself upright and moved forwards with the use of her magic.
"I thought you could only hover and make platforms of air to stand on?" I questioned.
"While fighting I managed to fly." Kiera replied.
"We need to hurry! No time for idle chatter!" I said remembering the state she was in.
I looked her up and down, 'damn it how can she still be so good looking even when dying?!'
I started running while shouting for Scarlet with Kiera next to me, flying.
"SCARLET- wait, Kiera, how much MP do you have left? Also you seem to be in no pain what so ever, shouldn't you be about to faint at the minimum? Anyone else would already be unconscious."
"Want my honest answer?" She asked.
'Does she still have a lot left or something?'
"Of course I want the honest answer, why else would I ask?"
"I have practically nothing left, running on empty. I can fly for another 3 minutes at maximum and I'm barely holding onto my consciousness."
"Why didn't you say earlier?! I would have continued carrying you!"
"That's why I didn't say. It would apply more pressure on your wound and worsen it." Kiera replied.
"You think that's worse than the state you're in?!"
Kiera didn't answer.
'Tch.'
"SCARLET, GET OVER HERE!!" I screamed.
A minute later I saw Scarlet running towards us with the rest of the group behind her. She went wide eyed when she saw Kiera.
I looked over at Kiera and saw her eyelids flicker and her body wobble.
'She is about to faint.'
"Hold on Kiera.." I said as I grabbed onto her and carried her despite my pain, I didn't care right now.
"SCARLET, DO YOU HAVE ANYTHING TO HEAL HER!? QUICKLY!" I shouted as they sped up.
Ten seconds later she reached us and Kiera's consciousness was slipping. My tears were falling.
'Stop crying.' I thought to myself as I placed Kiera on the floor.
"Tess, I'll be alright. Don't cry." She said, looking at me with almost closed eyes.
"HOW COULD I NOT CRY.. YOU'RE DYING!" I replied, shouting despite her being right there in front of me.
"Hold on.." Scarlet said as she quickly bent down and pulled a bottle out of her spacial ring. "Kiera, drink this- damn it she lost consciousness. We need someone to force it down her throat."
"KIERA!" Nova shouted followed by the rest of them shouting at Kiera to wake up.
"Oh my lord, what the hell happened to her?! Is she still alive? Kiera!" Mio said grabbing hold of her hand.
"Yes.. she is alive.. no clue how but she is. Anyone else would be dead by now, it's a miracle I swear." Scarlet shook her head, "anyway, someone needs to force this down her throat before she does die and if no one else will then I'll have to."
"How?" We all asked in urgency.
"Drink the potion but hold it in your mouth then open Kiera's mouth and force it down with your mouth." Scarlet replied.
Catherine looked at me with a smirk.
'Catherine.. don't make it obvious.'
"I'll do it." I said.
"Quickly then! Her pulse is getting weaker." Scarlet said, shoving the bottle into my hands.
I opened my mouth and emptied the contents of the bottle into my mouth. I then kissed Kiera and opened her mouth with mine, using my tongue to force it down her throat.
Once I was done I sat back up with a slightly red face. 'Does that count as a kiss?'
I shook my head and looked back at Scarlet.
"Anything else I need to do? If so, tell me quickly!" I said.
"We need to cover her in bandages and ointments. That should be it."
"Give them here then."
Scarlet took out bandages and some ointment and placed it on the ground.
"Boys, go away and make sure nothing interrupts us." Mio practically snarled at the boys when she looked at them and saw their faces.
Adams face was red and you could tell he was thinking of something indecent while Terry was just sad, worried and nervous looking.
"Okay." Terry said, grabbing Adam and dragging him off.
I saw Yuki off in the distance running towards us with red fur instead of white which obviously meant she was covered in blood and needed a wash to get the original colouring back but I didn't care about her. Kiera was my priority.
I lifted Kiera, took off her clothes and washed her with my water magic before placing her down after Scarlet took off her jacket and spread it on the floor for Kiera to be placed on.
I picked up the ointment and began spreading it carefully over Kiera's wounds. Her body already gained curves and she looked absolutely stunning, even when dying. Kiera, as a dragon, grew twice as fast as humans did so she would look like a twelve year old but Kiera looked more mature. She looked like a 15 year old and a well developed one at that. She had bandages wrapped around her breasts that were torn in some places so she needed to replace them. I needed to replace them. I gulped.
I shook my head when I started thinking about that and began spreading ointment on her other wounds. Turning her over to do her back.
After spreading ointment I heard growling behind me.
"Don't look at me like that, it wasn't me who did this." Scarlet said.
Yuki was growling and moved over to Kiera's side, nudging her hand and whining.
I ignored her and took off the bandages that bound her breasts. Trying not to look as much as possible, I wrapped fresh bandages around her breasts and then wrapped up her other wounds.
"Phew." I said as I leaned back once finished.
"Will she be alright?" Nova said nervously.
"I'd hope so but I'm not sure." Scarlet said with a guilty look, "I should've stayed nearer to her, it's my fault."
"No it's mine, I should've fought with her." Mio said.
Iris butted in, "It doesn't matter who's fault it is. All that matters is that she is alive and we need to keep it that way."
"Kiera kept saying that she will be fine so I hope she actually is. Whatever Kiera says is normally correct so I hope that this is too." I said.
Yuki looked at me and nodded.
'Does Yuki agree?'
"The dungeon will be closing in a day or two so we need to be prepared." Scarlet said, getting up. "And it seems in the meantime that we have company."
I looked to where Scarlet was staring and saw what she was talking about.
"Are the harpies going to fight us now we killed their leader and one of our strongest fighters is almost dead?" Mio said with anger seeping through her voice.
"That could be the case." Scarlet said.
"For saints sake." Catherine said.
'I won't let them get to Kiera. I can't let her get hurt..' I thought as the harpies slowly flew towards us.
