" Dad it's you! It's really you!"
" Father. Thank the Gods!"
Cindy and Byron quickly moved to Count Fracks's side as I was standing and trying to figure out exactly how this was possible. I mean, could that person who seemed so insane actually find the will to beat back a God and seize back control of himself?
" Dad! Are you going to be okay!? Please, I don't want you to die! We still need you!"
Lady Cindy started to plead to her father, but her pleading seemed to fall on deaf ears.
" Huah!"
/Splatter./
Just as Fracks went to speak, he vomited that similar black and green blood. Now that I can finally take in what I'm seeing, he's still ripped in half. I need to heal him, but my mana is too low. He's losing blood fast.
" Father!"
Byron noticed the blood leaking from where Fracks's body was cut by me. Byron looked at me with panic in his eyes and began to ask the question I already knew the answer to.
" Please, heal him! You can save our Father, can't you!?"
I felt terrible for my answer.
" N-"
" My Love! You did it!"
/GRIP! BANG!/
Before I could answer, I was grabbed and knocked off balance, from the tightness of the hug and the warmth of the hands, I knew it was Sarah. Without even thinking about anything else, I wrapped my hands around her as well. I mean... We made it. The God was gone, we lived through a fight with a God. Me, Sarah, Anna, Ellie, Wendy, Princess Alice and our guards all survived. I could breathe a sigh of relief... Until I turned my head after nodding to Princess Alice who arrived along with Sarah and I saw Byron, Lady Cindy and Baron Fracks again. I looked back at Sarah as I thought about the situation.
" Sarah, can you give me some of your mana real quick, they asked me t-"
/Chu!/
Sarah kissed me before I could even finish explaining why I was asking her to do it. Once she separated our lips she smiled at me as she spoke happily.
" I'm so glad you've gotten over showing our love in public, My Love. Would you like another one?"
I sat back up and shook my head. I raised my arm towards Baron Fracks as I responded to Sarah's words.
" For now no.... And I'd still prefer keeping our married activities to ourselves. There's some things I don't enjoy about doing something like this in public after all. Holy Heal!"
I sent out my mana and it sunk into Baron Fracks. I didn't feel resistance, but it looks like the effects that it had were negligible at best.
" D-Did it work?"
Lady Cindy looked to me for an answer. I nodded my head to her.
" My spell worked.... But I don't think it matters."
" You'd be right, Darling. The state his body was in, combined with the possession, my Goddesses said there's nothing we can do for him. All you've done is stopped him from bleeding out and giving him a few more minutes to spend here."
Anna's voice came from behind us. Anna and the rest joined Sarah, Princess Alice and I along with the Fracks family. They've finally made it over. Despite the victory we've achieved, no one was smiling, especially the other Counts. I turned to Anna as she spoke and I was a bit shocked. I mean, Holy Heal has worked for everything since I got here and now it doesn't? Something feels off and it must be down to the God Of The Blackwoods.
