Chapter 27: Stupid Childe

"She's not gonna wake up." Avis said as she wiped the blood on her cheeks. Klee was nowhere to be found, and Childe was looking at his teacher in fear.

"What do you mean? You're a doctor—"

"Tone your voice down, boy. I don't like you talking to me in that tone." Avis hissed as he glared down at Childe.

Childe immediately shut his mouth as he stared back at (Y/n).

Avis sigh as she kneeled down on Childe's level and looked at him straight in the eyes, "There's only one way to save her." She said.

"I'll do it." Childe said with no hesitation. He looked at his teacher with determination and made his teacher scoff.

"Alright, you didn't even let me explain." She said as she smirks. She knows that this will not save her goddaughter's life, but she wants to know how desperate Ajax is when it comes to saving her.

If he doesn't question about this, then he truly is in love with her.

Avis sigh as her eyebrows furrowed, trying to show her expression as stressed and bothered. Childe seemed to buy it.

"Tell her, Ajax," She paused as she look at the ginger head, she continued, "Tell her what you truly felt. I'm sure it'll help her regain conscious." She said.

She knows how ridiculous that sounds, but the boy needs a push of fate so that he could truly confess to her goddaughter. She hate it when things circulates slow.

Childe stared at her in disbelief, but he didn't questioned it. He gulped as his heart was beating for fast against his chest. It feels heavy, and the thumping reached his ears. Blood flushing through his cheeks as he bit his lip in nervous and frustrations. He knows how ridiculous on what his teacher was trying to make him do, but she knows more about things than him so he should make any questions about it.

But, when did all of this began?

It was a gruesome battle. Childe ended up with lots of cuts due to the ability of the imposter of Albedo.

The imposter smirks as he stared at (Y/n) who seemed to be standing right behind of Childe who seemed to be protecting her.

It surprised Childe when he saw his teacher quickly protected Klee and disappear out of thin air. Of course Avis would drive away Klee from the battle field, the imposter was using Klee's big brother's face.

The ground shook beneath the three as Childe already knew what was coming.

He grew up in an icy plane to know what's going to happen next. He looked up to see an avalanche going straight down to them.

He clicked his tongue, once again grabbing (Y/n) by her wrist as he tried to pull her away. But Childe was tugged back when he felt that (Y/n) was being pulled away from his grasp.

The girl screamed as the imposter grabbed her by the ankle, dragging her in of where the majority of the snow is going to fall down.

'Damn it!' Childe cursed inside his head as he tried his best to reach out for her. Everything seemed to go slow as the avalanche covered the two as Childe was almost covered along.

Childe's eyes widened.

Just how unlucky this day could get?!

Luckily Avis found (Y/n)'s body before it could lose all of its warmth and die of hyperthermia. Her skin was cold and pale, but luckily she was still breathing,
