When I reopened my eyes, I found that I was in a tent, surrounded by dense warmth, without the previous chill outside.

There was no one around, and I was still wearing a tattered maid's outfit.

Relieved, I do not want someone to help me change clothes.

The master should be okay. The last time Vinales pierced the master's abdomen, the master was able to recover within a day. This time the master can recover so fast, right? I had to comfort myself in this way.

But still I couldn't help but walk off the bed. My body has fully recovered, and the magic stored in my body is also very full.

I opened the tent's door.

"Lord Yiluodiya!"

Outside the door were two female soldiers on guard, who turned to look at me in shock.

The sky outside was completely covered with night. Had I only slept half a day or had I slept for a few days? I don’t know.

"What's wrong?"

"Are you...are you really okay?"

I nodded.

"How long have I been sleeping?"

After the two soldiers looked at each other, they said "It was about four hours."

So I woke up on the same day.

I had to start sighing that Yiluodiya's body was really perverted. Now I was completely like a healthy person except for my clothes being a bit tattered and torn.

"Lord Yiluodiya, ...I think you should change your clothes."

"Hmm."

"There are spare clothes for you inside."

Nodding again I reentered the tent where there was a clean set of dresses on the bench of the bed.

In the tent through the door tent, I asked the two men on guard outside the door.

"Why isn't it a maid's outfit?"

"This..."

"Lord Yiluodiya, if you like to wear a maid's outfit, I will bring it to you."

"Forget it."

After changing into a clean dress, I stepped outside.

"Take me to see...Lord Demon King."

"Yes."

Two soldiers led the way for me in front. In fact, the master's tent wasn't really far from me, only three or four tents away.

"Lord Demon King is inside. We will leave first."

The two soldiers bowed their heads and said goodbye to me.

"Hmm."

I pushed open my master's door tent, and then the master was very different from what I had imagined.

The master was sitting on her bed with a table in front of her bed and a small stool on my master's bed with two rectangular legs straddling my master's abdomen. This small stool is ...to make the master put books on it, and the master is standing while watching books.

I finally greatly relieved.

Fortunately it was not like that on the earth: If your abdomen was pierced, you also need to do surgery. Your face will look very pale while sickly lying on the hospital bed. But the master recovers so fast. Before the master was so dying that scared me crying, now she is safe and sound leaning on the bed and reading a book.

But I'm always more pleased than surprised, after all, my master is okay.

Thanks to my protection, and the master is a Demon King, she can ask the army's best doctors and magicians to treat her. So it is normal for her to get well quickly.

The master turned her head to look at me with a faint smile.

I approached the master's bedside and habitually assumed the standing position of a maid.

"Master, are you... all right?"

"Hmm. Sit down."

"Yes."

"It looks like you're fully recovered, right?"

"Yes, master."

Looking at the master with a calm face, I can't help but think I've never seen the master panic. Even when flying in the sky and she was dying, the master was smiling. Is the master really so unfazed by things?

"The master's mental quality is really strong."

"Why do you think so?"

The master closed the book and began to concentrate on chatting with me.

"Master, you look well now."

I looked at the master's abdomen under the small stool, which had changed back to the normal long red dress.

"At that time I thought the master was going to..."

"Because I trusted you and believed that you would be able to save me."

Bowing my head slightly embarrassed, I was just following my heart.

"Speaking of which...Cross..."

The master's serene face was tinged with a touch of sadness. She closed her eyes as if she was holding back something.

My heart suddenly felt painful in that moment, and my eyes seemed to flow with tears.

The first time I saw the master reveal such a sad and desperate look. I also missed the time when Cross drove us to play together, with all my strength to hold back my tears.

We don’t know where its body fell, and we have scurrying to escape.

"Master, I'll go to find Cross's body myself some other time."

Even if the humans ambushed me there again, I could handle it alone, mainly because I couldn't use my strength to the fullest then with the master by my side.

It's not that I'm weak, but it's just that I don't have any ability to protect others. The only way to protect the master is to take the master to escape and kill the opposite.

However, because of the Brave's super perverted ability, the Brave can hold me back by himself.

The remaining dozens of humans swarmed towards the master like a plague of locusts. I could only rush over to protect the master regardless of my own life, causing to fall into that wretched state.

"No need."

It took a long time for the master to slowly spit out these words.

"Why?"

Cross accompanied the master for decades, but finally even a tombstone shall not be erected for it?

"No need for you to go. Just send a team to find it. It's almost time to reach the Sirene City. We can't delay."

"All right."

Silence once again covered between me and my master, who was leaning on the bed staring at the white puffy roof. It was the first time that I saw my master lost in thought.

The bitterness in my heart was hard to describe. Those who had accompanied my master had left one by one. At first, her parents died when she was a child, and Cross left her now. Heath Relia may leave her in the future, and someone else underneath is trying to plot a rebellion against her.

The air of depression pressed me so hard that I could hardly breathe, and I did not know how to comfort my master.

"Master...I will leave now."

"Hmm."
