บท 296: Inheritor of The Scholar Guardian

The Knight of Courage carried a smile on her face as her hair strands looked like blue quartz in the light. She looked around the bathroom and at Arthur sitting with his clothes on in the tub. 

"Did I pick an inappropriate time?" She asked awkwardly as Arthur stared at her with a haggard face. 

He had no strength left after the mental anguish from earlier. He tried standing up, but his right hand slipped from its grasp on the tub and he fell back into it with a loud bang. 

"It's alright." Arthur sighed. "Can you help me stand up?" 

The Knight of Courage nodded and walked over. She pulled his right arm and Arthur stood up and got out of the tub. While pulling it, she examined his arm closely. 

"It seems you weren't trying to remove the gem as I feared, which would have been quite deadly." The Knight smiled. "Are you alright, Seika?" 

"I am, thank you. It seems you're always helping me, now and in the Domain."
