'Screw you.

Laughter came out of my mouth. I tried to resist it, but found that I couldn't. I was still surrounded by people trying to assist me, after all.

"H-He seems to be suffering seizures. Priests, please keep doing the spells, and wizards, please check if his body has some magic flooding."

"Yes."

Lee Jihye, who realized about my situation, luckily made up a lie in time, so I was forced to roll around once more as I held my arm. At this point, I could also see Yuno Kasugano pacing around restlessly.

In fact, there was no reason for her to stay. My body was already recovering. I was already craving to rest in my room than to stay here creating a spectacle for the people.

However, I needed to continue the act for one reason, and one reason only.

'We are the victims, you bastards!'

That was the message I wanted to portray.

Of course, the person who showed this even better than I did was Jung Hayan.

"Waaaah, oppaaa! Waaaah..."

"I'm fine..."

"Sniff..."

Jung Hayan looked utterly lost and sad as she gazed down at me. For her, all of this must've seemed real. Thus, her reaction was normal, seeing as she had almost seen me die from the hands of that dirty bastard.

Anyone who saw her would think that I was already dead.

Because she was crying so sadly, she had managed to touch the hearts of some of the noble ladies within the crowd.

Even Kasugano Yuno, who knew about the situation, had tears in her eyes. This kind of situation probably felt unfamiliar to her.

My only role was to show how much pain I was feeling. At the same time, however, it wouldn't be good for me to overact at this point. As Lee Jihye thought of the same, she shifted her effort into lightening the atmosphere.

It was then that Cha Hee-ra lifted me up. I knew this would prove to be another spectacle.

She didn't seem to care about the blood on my body and clothes. In an instant, her body became covered in blood, yet this must seem like an infinitely beautiful view to the nobles of the Holy Empire.

I really felt like I was being protected by this woman. Though I had not touched her all over, I could feel her solid body.

Hee-ra wasn't needlessly bulked like Park Deokgu. Her muscles were perfectly compressed.

When I thought of Ito Souta, who was beaten up by this massive fist, laughter came out again.

'It's great that you're not dead.

At the right moment, he had probably protected his body with all his power. However, seeing that he vomited blood, he must've suffered fatal injuries.

To put it plainly, Ito Souta had received double the damage that I had sustained.

At this, we left the party hurriedly.

Jung Hayan was also following me while wiping away her tears, and Lee Jihye stayed behind, as she felt like the duty fell on her to calm the people we would be leaving behind.

Since she had confirmed that I was safe, she had moved on to the next part of the plan.

I felt a little disappointed, but that was Lee Jihye for you.

'It's also an action that'll work in my favor...'

Meanwhile, we were cruising straight into the medical wing.
