Chapter 9 - 1.8
Michael didn’t understand the thought process of the Vampire Duke in front of him. He was obviously his enemy. The Duke should’ve just killed him here if he wanted to, or he could just leave him alone in this forest. Without his holy book, Michael wouldn’t be able to do a thing.
Yet, the Duke returned with his holy book and even urged him to treat his sprained ankle.
Truly, Michael couldn’t understand the Duke.
Michael took the chance and opened one page of his holy book, he chanted something and a warm light came from his hand. He put his hand on his sprained ankle, slowly, the ankle was covered in warm glow.
"How long will it take for your ankle to return normal?" Yunyu asked impatiently. He just wanted to make sure that Michael was safe before he ran away from the mansion temporarily. He didn’t want to be a skewered vampire in the kingdom.
"It still needs at least three hours before healing completely," Michael said.
Yunyu sighed. He turned his back and crouched in front of Michael, "Hop on."
"What are you going to do?" Michael asked vigilantly.
"I still need to escort you back to safety. This forest is very dark at night, you’ll die here without me. Now hop on my back and we’ll return."
Michael gritted his teeth. But it was true, he didn’t know how to get back to the main road, and his ankle was still recovering. Michael swallowed his pride and hopped on the Duke’s back.
The Duke carried him and they walked slowly through the forest. The forest was dark and scary, but Michael was focused on the Duke who carried him now.
