Chapter 527: Doom Kiyoung (2)

'Other people were joining me, right?'

They weren't with me inside the carriage, but it was likely they were just following behind. It was because the trip was so abrupt.

It might take a bit longer for them to get to where we were since the Blue Guild Master was on a mission, but they all probably agreed to meet at the capital.

With the worst-case scenario in mind, they probably thought that all their forces had to come with them. Of course, it was unlikely that such a scenario would happen, but Kim Hyunsung would probably have prepared for it.

Considering that, the reason why he didn't ride in the carriage with me was...

'He probably didn't want to make me think that this is such a big issue.'

It was ridiculous how he tried to act calm after fussing so much a moment before. Like nothing was wrong, and like he was only going out to fix a minor issue, he acted like there was nothing to worry about. However, he couldn't hide his shaking eyes.

It was hard to act as if I didn't know anything.

Whenever Elena teared up, she turned around to wipe her eye in secret, and Jung Hayan displayed her anxiety from head to toe. She kept scratching her head and pursing her lips.

And as if Kim Hyunsung had ordered them to do so, they sat by my side and chattered about bright topics that even they didn't seem focused on.

Amongst the people who got into the carriage with me, Sun Hee-young was the one who had been hiding her emotions best. While maintaining her position, she fulfilled her role and appeared more mature than everybody else.

It was something that I already knew... Perhaps, the Heavens had helped me, but I started to get a fever as the carriage began to move.

'Wow, the human body is really intriguing.'

'It hurt. It hurt. It hurt.'

'It's tiring. It's tiring. It's tiring.'

I repeated those words inside my head and began to actually feel some pain.

It wasn't like sweat had been pouring out of my mouth, or that I had begun to heave, but my face became pale like I had a faint headache.

It was a headache that could quickly be fixed with holy power, but Elena couldn't do that since she thought the cause of the headache was her holy powers.

They could only stare at me pitifully.

After having a serious conversation with Elena and Lee Jihye, Kim Hyunsung appeared again. Besides the time I slept, Hyunsung stayed by my side all day.

'Well, in his perspective, it is understandable...'

He probably thought he was the only one who could fix the situation if Doom Kiyoung would ever come out again.

In that awkward and silent atmosphere, I could only act as weak as I could. I had to act like a tragic heroine.

"How's your condition?"

"I don't know. I'm a bit dizzy... If something goes wrong..."

"No, it's not a serious situation. We will arrive at the city after a bit, so just endure for a little while longer. There's no need to be worried or concerned. It's not such a big thing. It's just a simple curse."

"But, a moment ago..."

"I was just a bit surprised. That's the only reason, so please sleep for a bit. In just ten minutes..."
