Chapter 124

Desperate Situation
It seemed that the demons in the vicinity had, in fact, been mostly defeated by her attacks.
Sheila finally had enough time to look around and see what was going on. She was in turmoil by Jornwerner’s unexpected attitude.
The wide plain that had been covered with demons was now somewhat more visible, probably because there were fewer moving objects. Far behind them, she could see the figures of Clauschezade and Leidyrune. They appeared to be safe from a distance, and Sheila breathed a sigh of relief.
At that moment, Jornwerner stirred slightly from her shoulder.
He slowly looked up and let go of her upper body. He didn’t look like he had cried, but he still looked as pitiful as a wet puppy in the rain.
“Are you all right now?”
“Yeah…. Sorry, I guess I got upset. I knew in my head that you were the one who created the wind, but when I saw your figure get caught up with the demons, my heart almost stopped.”
He was being awfully honest and without his usual flippant tone, so she couldn’t help but softened up. Sheila laughed and ruffled Jornwerner’s hair a little roughly. She actually quite liked the soft texture of his hair.
“If you’ve calmed down, listen to me. I will never let myself die on the battlefield.”
