The battle continued and the atmosphere was intense....
As usual.

[ "Three Explosive Bombs have spawned at the student's platform!" ]

[ "10 Seconds before it explodes!" ]

The intense music that swayed the battlefield....
Comes Micheal Lorn, Grabbing the bombs and throwing it at Kwan Jihu!

Kwan Jihu grabs all the three bombs and throws it back at Micheal Lorn!

This Process continued repeatedly... only at the last second where Kwan Jihu took the Bombs and threw it in a different direction.

That direction....
Headed towards....
me.

'NOT AGAIN-!'
I thought as the panic swam through my head, my ahoge straightened vertically from the panic.

I stood and jumped away from the sitting area and dodged the three bombs just in time.
Though fortunately, I only got injured from the impact.
No... I don't really think thats 'fortunate'. The injury is always minor, but I almost broke my bones every time.

Every few minutes, A direct hit from my direction would always appear in front of me, especially in the sitting area.

But every time I get healed from that same impact, I would suddenly forget the dangers and continued going to the sitting area like nothing happened.

I don't know why, but I did anyway. As a result, I only repeatedly get slight scratches but a few other small injuries.

Luckily, the guy that sat beside me would always give me healing potions whenever I got wounded by the impact.

I forgot his name again, and I can only remember his vague face.
But now that i'm far away, unseen because of the smoke that was formed from the impact, I doubt that guy would help me in this situation now.

'......'
"Can somebody help me..?" I expressionlessly pleaded as my ahoge drooped.

Barely anyone noticed me get injured from the impact every time, pleading for help with such a plain face would only do nothing.

Suddenly, A beautiful-looking person started to approach me.
Her face was covered by the smoke, but I could tell from her figure she was quite a shiny person.

"Are you ok?" She asked, Lending me her hand.

'Isn't that obvious..?' I thought, shaking my head.

For some reason, She was the only person that somehow noticed me lay down on the plain sand injured.
Her looks and her personality were already familiar, I just can't tell what kind of character she was.

[ Um... Kim Lee, Thats Lusian Luien. 😂 ]
The red system suddenly appeared and replied right by my shoulder.

'Oh'

'I forgot' I thought cluelessly after reading the systems texts.

"Don't worry, I'll help you." The character spoke with full-on kindness to help me.

Her eyes began to glow as her hand gently touched my slightly wounded injury.

A few seconds passed and I began to take out my sunglasses out of nowhere and put it on.
"...Don't you think its a waste using this kind of mana on me.?" I asked expressionlessly with the sunglasses.

"I don't think so, I think its better if I could help that person even if she or he has a scratch or a minor injury." She answered with a gentle smile.

I don't think she noticed the sunglasses I wore, but because of her figure shining in front me, I can't help but feel touched but blinded at the same time.
