Chapter 293: A Peck on the Cheek
"The least you could have done was warn me!" Rosalind hissed when Lucas appeared in front of her. She was currently sitting next to the beast, her arms bleeding, her face pale.
"You are welcome," he uttered. "On the battlefield, no one else will warn you."
Rosalind said nothing. She knew that he was right. Still, she felt a little betrayed that he would actually abandon her like that. She looked at her wound and started using her light Blessing to heal it.
"Do not waste your light Blessing" Lucas said. He sat next to her and touched her arm.
"Aw!"
"Use your darkness to heal it."
"What?" she tried to take her arm back.
"Try it."
"Darkness it does not work like that. How could it "
"Do something good?" he chuckled while shaking his head. "Not everything is black and white, Rosalind. Now try it. Think of it against your skin. It should feel cold, a little tingly but nothing really painful."
Rosalind frowned. She looked at him. Why was he speaking as if he experienced it himself? As if sensing her thoughts, he got up and turned away from her. "The blood will attract more beasts. Tell me once you are done."
"Hey where are you going?"
He turned his head, showing his side profile. "I am going to kill more of them."
He did not wait for her to say a word as he disappeared.
"Hurry," he said inside her head. "The one from the Thun Family will arrive soon. You cannot let them know that you have both the light and the darkness."
Was this the reason why he seemed to be in a hurry to teach her how to utilize her ability? Her lips thinned.
"Remember," he added. "Whatever it is that your light can do can be done by the darkness too."
"How is that possible?"
Just as she expected, she did not receive an answer from him anymore. She could only sigh and looked at the deep wound in her arm. Then she followed his instructions and used her dark mist to heal it. First, she wrapped her dark mist around her arm then thought about it fixing her skin.
"Why would you think that it has something to do with you?"
"Well" He was right. Was she just overthinking things? She scowled, the creases in her forehead growing more prominent.
Then she heard him chuckle.
"I was thinking you are growing too fast," he said.
"Growing too fast?"
"Tall trees attract strong winds."
"But over time, tall trees would evolve into something that could cope with the wind," She responded. "Being a tall tree is not exactly that bad a thing."
"No. You are right. It is not exactly that bad." He shook his head and crossed his arms across his chest.
There were a few minutes of silence before a horse interrupted their calm atmosphere. There was a knock on the window.
Lucas immediately opened it, revealing Magda, who was on her horse outside.
"Your Grace it seems that Ena Thun and her company have arrived earlier than we expected. They are already at the border of Wugari, and the King wants you to accompany him to welcome them."
Lucas frowned as he looked at Rosalind.
"Do you need me to come?" Rosalind asked.
"Are you worried about me, My Lady?" he retorted.
"Well" It seemed that he was concerned about the Thun Family.
"If you are so concerned, then why not give me a peck on the cheek to give me a little boost?"
Rosalind's eyes widened when she heard his words. How could he joke about something like this, especially when Magda was listening to them?
"Just go," Rosalind said. In response, Lucas chuckled. He gathered his coat and was about to leave when Rosalind stopped him.
In a quick motion, she leaned and gave him a peck on his cheek.
"There" she uttered. "Leave now."
