Chapter 61 Return

Just when Roland squatted down to install the base for the new steam engine, three figures suddenly emerged out of thin air. They landed, staggering, in front of his feet and took him with them when they fell to the ground.

Anna was so scared that she immediately jumped back and set up a wall of green flames to try to block the strangers.

When Roland looked up, he found that one of the women was the long-awaited Nightingale. From her face, she seemed very exhausted. Her cheeks were abnormally red, so obviously she had been running in the cold and windy weather for a long time, but despite the wind, her forehead was covered with dense sweat.

Nightingale lifted her head and cried with palpable anxiety. "Your Highness, please call Nana and have her come over! We need her immediately!"

Now, Roland noted that the woman tied to her back was very pale and had her eyes closed. She was wrapped in clothes which were dark red from the oozing blood and had a nearly cut off arm.

He immediately reacted and shouted toward his guard. "Cardin, run to the medical center and fetch Nana!"

"Yes, Your Highness!" answered the guard as he dashed away immediately.

Aside from these two, there was also a young girl caught in Nightingale's armpit. She looked like she wasn't in a serious situation, and was looking around with eyes full of curiosity.

"You aren't hurt, right?" Roland stepped forward to untie the woman with the injured arm from Nightingale's back.

"I'm fine, Your Highness, Keke ... I'm very sorry, I couldn't bring back my sisters from the Witch Cooperation Association." Nightingale gasped for air, her voice was very weak. Apparently she had had a very long journey and had almost physically overextended herself.

"Say nothing more, you need to rest first." Roland picked up the unconscious and injured woman and let Anna lead Nightingale. Like this, the five people returned to the castle. Nightingale had the room next to Anna's, so when they came to the castle, he immediately ordered the maids to build a fire in her room and to also deliver a vat of hot water. After Nana arrived, he first explained to her what had happened before she began to clean the wound and treat the injury while Roland stepped out of the room.

As long as she wasn't dead, Nana would be able to heal every injury like they had never happened, so the problem wasn't if she could save her life. Although Nightingale had carefully tied up the arm, the blood circulation had been cut off for far too long, so he did not know if it could be saved. The following cleaning and treatment required the patient to undress, so as a gentleman, Roland consciously chose to step out.

But how could it have developed into this? Asked Roland himself. Could it be that the Witch Camp was attacked by demonic beasts and there was no one else she was able to save? If that was true, then that would really be a great loss.

Roland was nervously hovering at the door. About half an hour later, the door was pushed open and the first person who came out was the unknown girl who looked unharmed and who had come together with Nightingale .

When she saw him waiting in front of the door, she nodded and said, "You're exactly the same as Nightingale had described you."

" ... " Roland didn't know what to make out of this sentence, "What did she say about me?"

"A prince who would care about us witches." while answering his question, the girl lightly shut the door, "Unfortunately, the news was so unbelievable that most of the witches didn't believe what she said. In fact, I also couldn't believe her, but it is exactly like my dad had always said, 'the world is so big, and it has all kinds of people'. My name is Lightning, Your Highness, glad to meet you. "When she finished speaking, she bowed her head and laid her right hand on her left shoulder - it probably was her way to salute.
