☆Isekai Husbands!☆

Chapter Thirteen: Together is Better Than Alone

It was so hectic today at the sick house. During lunch, while Hikaru and Noon were eating together inside Noon's office, they were disturbed by a sudden commotion outside. A sudden knock on the door startled Hikaru who was drinking. He automatically chocked on his drink. Noon quickly get up from his seat and patted Hikaru's back.

"Yes?" Noon shouted back to the door.

The door opened wide and there was Zac. His panic face was so obvious that they know something bad had happened.

"Zac? What's wrong?" Noon asked.

The Fehu inhaled and wiped his trickling sweat with the back of his hand.

"There was a lot of injured people outside! Maybe around eight to nine people-"

"Got it." A sense of urgency could be heard from Noon's voice. Without finishing his lunch, Noon quickly ran to the treatment room. Hikaru and Zac followed him close behind.

According to the town people, there were two animal attacks nearly at the same time. It happened when a the woodcutters were doing their job in the outer part of Lyllion Woods. Usually, there should be no wild animals that would attack humans around that area. But for some unknown reason, the rampaging animals started to come out from the inner part of the forest.

Hikaru thought there would be monsters in Avalleon, but surprisingly there was none. Although Avalleon had fantasy settings, but there was no such things as monsters, or adventurer's guild or something like that. Of course there was no job description like adventurer as well. That kind of disappointed Hikaru a little.

Because the incidents happened near Noon's sick house, they were rushed here and that made Noon and his three assistants, including Hikaru busy running around all day. There were not only the four woodcutters, but a few other people who was working near the woods who were also got attacked.

For injuries that weren't fatal, they could just disinfect them using medicines that were made from herbs, bandaged them or if needed, stitched them up. If the injuries were bad, Noon and his two assistants helped the patients to regulate their mana around the injured part to help the injury heals a little bit faster. Noon was the busiest man in the sick house as he was the only doctor who was qualified to diagnose the patients. Zac and Lyle who was still unqualified to handle big cases were only allowed to watch and learn from Dr. Noon as he explained to them about the diagnosis and the type of treatments needed.

Hikaru's job was to help those three when needed. If they needed him to bandage the injured, he would do it. If they needed him to pass the tools, he quickly gave it to them. Thanks to their team work, they finished quicker than usual.

Hikaru had heard that a few groups of guards and knights were sent into Lyllion Woods to exterminate the animals. They needed as many people as they can because the woods was vast and dense as they got closer to the middle. If they were too late in exterminating the animals, they afraid that the animals would attack the residential areas that were closer to the woods.

One of them was Reese. Hikaru hoped that there were no more people getting hurt, especially Reese.

The night was serene and calm, unlike the chaotic day they had just now. A light breeze blew onto Hyde's face, exposing his bangs that had already grown longer than his usual haircut. Hyde's fingers ran through his front hair and brushed it off to the top of his head.

At that point of the time, his eyes brightened up when he caught Hikaru's silhouette coming towards him. Behind his mate, his best friend Noon was there, looking more haphazardly than usual. Noon smiled at Hyde and greeted him with a simple "hey".
