Book 5: Chapter 37
When I woke up afterwards, I found myself in a Valkyrie’s arms. In my hazy state, I saw a white robe and felt something warm at the back of my head. A familiar scent also lingered by my nose…
“Nier…”
I murmured softly, and the body behind me shuddered.
The owner of the body then lowered her head and looked at me. I had never seen her before. She calmly asked, “You’re awake, Your Majesty. How are you feeling? Are you feeling hurt anywhere?”
“Ah… no… I’m fine…”
“That is good. We will soon be arriving Her Majesty’s sojourn palace. Her Majesty has been awaiting your arrival for a long time. You can have a short rest.” The Valkyrie then looked ahead and greeted someone.
The sound of horse hooves came from all directions. I opened my eyes and was absolutely surprised to see so many Valkyries in the same uniform around me. She slowed her horse down so that I could lean against her more comfortably.
I opened my eyes and anxiously asked, “Nier… That’s right… That’s right… How is Nier?! How is she?!”
“You need not worry Your Majesty. Everyone is safe. We met them on the way. We tried to warn their pursuers, but since they wouldn’t heed our warnings, we killed them. The doctor is currently treating our instructor. Our instructor is fine.”
