Chapter 133: Chapter 132: Haruto Finally Wakes Up
"Ah...?" Haruto held his head, a throbbing pain sweeping through his mind, making the world around him spin for a moment. He felt as if his head would explode, but the sensation quickly subsided, leaving a lingering dizziness.
Haruto's gaze was directed forward, his eyes wide as he witnessed a scene that left him frozen in place. In front of him, Patrick moved nimbly, as if dancing among the sharp needles controlled by Lilyana.
Patrick's movements were so fast that they blurred in Haruto's eyes, which were still adjusting to the situation. Meanwhile, Lilyana's face looked tense, frustrated that each attack failed to hit its target. She huffed and then accelerated the movement of the needles, hoping to break through Patrick's defense.
However, Patrick, with extraordinary calmness, continued to evade, his body moving before the needles got close. It was as if Patrick could see the future, predicting every incoming attack.
"How is that possible?" Haruto murmured softly, his eyes glued to Patrick.
Lilyana also looked confused. The woman's brow furrowed, a sign that frustration was taking over her. In her restrained anger, Lilyana controlled the moving needles in a random pattern, attacking from all directions, leaving no gap for Patrick to evade.
Patrick held his breath, his teeth biting down on his lower lip until it almost bled. His eyes widened, focused on every movement of the needles. He stood firm, even as Lilyana's attacking movements began to corner him.
For the first time, the needles managed to penetrate Patrick's defense. Some of them grazed his skin, creating small but painful wounds that quickly stained his clothes with blood.
"Finally..." Lilyana murmured with a slight smile, enjoying the fruits of her labor.
Patrick's breath sounded heavy. His body began to weaken, and stamina drained from using his eye abilities for too long. Each breath felt like a struggle, blood dripping from Patrick's wounds, staining the ground beneath him.
At that moment, Patrick's gaze met Haruto's, who was sitting at a distance, watching the fight with a confused and dizzy expression. Patrick forced a smile despite the pain he was experiencing.
"Ah! Haruto, you're awake!" Patrick ran over, staggering, followed by Lilyana, who walked more calmly.
"Yeah... how long have I been unconscious?" Haruto asked, rubbing his temples gently, his eyes still adjusting to the blinding daylight.
"A full day. It's daytime again now." Patrick smiled weakly, proud despite the deep fatigue.
"We were training, just like you said. Natsuki is outside, still trying to control her powers. I... I've made great progress! Did you see that? I could see all of Lilyana's attacks! It's all thanks to your teachings about Aura Energy!" Patrick spoke with a happy expression.
"Haahh... just because of that ability, you're already proud?" Haruto looked at Patrick with a slightly condescending gaze, though deep down, he was quite impressed.
"You need to train harder. Quickly heal your wounds with Bellina's saliva." Haruto's tone sounded cold, as usual.
"I understand! I did it yesterday, so I know what to do!" Patrick replied with a wide smile, unaffected by Haruto's harsh demeanor.
With light steps, Patrick turned and walked away, leaving Haruto with Lilyana, who was still standing in her place. A brief silence enveloped Haruto and Lilyana before she initiated a conversation.
"So... do you feel better now?" Lilyana's voice was soft but carried genuine concern.
"Yes, I feel much better. Thank you for helping me." Haruto said, nodding slightly, but there was a gratitude he couldn't hide.
"Thank goodness..." Lilyana whispered softly, smiling with relief.
Haruto paused for a moment, his eyes widening as he saw that smile. Something within him stirred. Lilyana's smile... so enchanting, so beautiful.
