Chapter 152 - Chapter 152 An Approaching Attack

As Mira stopped biting his neck she asked "Does this mean I can come with you?" Thomas glanced at her and said "After beating Ocis that badly I'd rather not." Mira stood up and said "What if I protect her too?" Thomas stood up and said "That doesn't mean you won't fight with the others." Thomas began to walk away as he said "Well I have to check and see how Ocis is doing." Mira grabbed Thomas's arm and said "What if I agree not to fight with them?" Thomas sighed and said "I already told you, it's pointless to ask me so you should just ask the others." Thomas walked towards Ceil and put a hand on her head as he said "Okay this is sorted out now." As they both teleported back to the inn Thomas yawned and said "I should've just walked here." Thomas glanced at Ocis and seen that she was sleeping with bandages covering her wings. Thomas grabbed a chair and set it beside Ocis as Daisy said "None of her injuries are fatal, we should be able to remove the bandages tomorrow." Thomas day down in the chair beside Ocis and said "Probably the best news I heard all day." Peri stared at Thomas and asked "Did you beat her without taking much damage?" Thomas stared at Ocis and said "No we each hit each other once." Ceil stared at Peri and said "He was only hit the one time in his stomach and he slammed her head into the ground, the rest was just talking." Lily stared at Thomas and said "You mean he didn't freak out and kill her?" Ceil shook her head and said "He only lost his temper for a few moments when he slammed her head into the ground." Scarlett glanced at Thomas and asked "Do you think she'll continue to bother us?" After not getting an answer Scarlett walked over and seen Thomas sleeping in the chair. Lily picked up Poppy and set her on Thomas's lap as she said "It would be best if you kept an eye on him." Poppy stared at Lily and said "You can count on me!" As morning came Ocis seen Thomas sleeping with Poppy on his head. Ocis stared at Thomas and smiled as she said "Thank you." Poppy stared at Ocis and said "None of your wounds are serious, the bandages should be taken off shortly." Ocis glanced at Poppy and asked "How long has he been there?" Poppy glanced at Thomas and said "He's been here the whole night waiting by your side." Poppy glanced at the window and said "When the others get back they'll remove your bandages." Ocis stared at Thomas and asked "He didn't get hurt by her did he?" Poppy shook her head and said "They didn't bother fighting, he made sure to come back shortly after you were brought here." As someone knocked on the door Ocis stood up and said "I'll get it." Poppy glanced at Ocis and said "You shouldn't be moving, just let them knock." Ocis opened the door and seen Mira standing there with a fruit basket. Ocis stared at her and said "He has no more blood for you." As Ocis said this she shut the door before Mira could say anything. Mira stood outside the door and said "I'm not here for blood." Ocis walked away from the door and said "He's sleeping right now, so go away." Mira opened the door and said "I'm here to apologize for being selfish." Poppy stared at them and mumbled "Things might escalate again." Ocis sat back down on her bed and asked "Why should I believe you?" Mira set the fruit basket on the ground in front of the door and said "I'll be leaving now." As Mira left Ocis stared at the fruit basket and asked "Do you think she poisoned it?" Poppy shook her head and said "If she wanted to she could've just killed us all." Ocis stared at Thomas and said "Maybe we should put him in a bed." Ocis picked Thomas up and set him in the bed as Poppy pulled the blanket up over him and said "We should go before we wake him." Ocis picked Poppy up and said "Maybe we should listen to what Mira has to say." Shortly after they left Thomas woke up and seen the ceiling. Thomas sat there for a few moments before saying "How did I end up in a bed?" Thomas sat up and seen a fruit basket in front of the door with a note in it. Thomas got out of bed and grabbed the note. Thomas sighed and said "I still can't read without magic." Thomas activated his magic and read the note. The note read "From Mira, I'd like to apologize for the trouble I've caused." Thomas closed the note and mumbled "Dammit, is Ocis fighting her again?" Thomas jump out of the window and began to run towards Mira's house as he mumbled "What if I'm not there in time?" As Thomas arrived at Mira's house he seen Ocis and Mira sitting outside talking. As they both turned and stared at him Thomas let out a sigh of relief. Thomas walked towards them and said "I never would've expected this." Ocis stared at Thomas and said "Mira stopped by earlier to check on me." Thomas glanced at Mira and said "You don't have to worry too much, she's sturdier then she looks." Thomas sat down beside Ocis as Mira asked "Why were you in such a rush?" Thomas glanced at Mira and said "To be totally honest I thought you two were fighting again." Ocis stared at Thomas and said "Mira explained everything to me and why she needs blood." Mira stared at Thomas and said "I'll also be needing blood to protect myself because of those people who want me dead." Thomas glanced at Mira and said "You mean those guys I ran into that destroyed the blood you needed?" Mira nodded and said "Those people have been after me for a while." As Poppy walked out of Mira's house she said "I couldn't find what you ask for." Mira stared at her and said "I might've thrown it out so it's fine." Thomas glanced at her and asked "What are you looking for?" Mira glanced at Thomas and said "Those people are going to attack me today so I figured I'd get my sword." Thomas stood up and said "I don't have a talisman on right now, so I guess I can help out." Mira stared at Thomas and said "No it's fine, I should be able to handle them myself." Thomas glanced at her and said "It's always good to have back up." Ocis stared at Mira and said "Your not gonna be able to change his mind so just accept his help." Mira stared at Ocis for a few moments and smiled as she said "Okay." Poppy stood beside Ocis and asked "Does he have enough mana for this?" Mira stared at Ocis and asked "Why does he feel the need to help?" Ocis glanced at Mira and said "He probably has his own reasons." Thomas glanced at Ocis and said "Your not entirely wrong but I suppose I can help her out in the process." Mira stared at Thomas and asked "What are you planning?" Thomas smiled and said "You'll just have to wait and find out." Thomas glanced at Ocis and said "By the way, would you like me to remove those bandages for you?" Ocis nodded and said "I haven't been able to fly with them." As Thomas removes the bandages Mira asked "Are you certain you'll be able to beat them?" Thomas shrugged and said "Only one way to find out." As Thomas finished removing the bandages Mira said "Thats a dangerous way of thinking." Thomas stood up and said "Dangerous or not I'm basically gambling with my plan anyway." Poppy jumped onto Thomas's arm and climbed up to his shoulder as she said "He does reckless things all the time." Thomas stared at Ocis and Poppy as he said "If you have any ideas on how to improve our odds I'd be happy to hear them." As Thomas stared at Mira she turned away. Thomas stared at her and said "Your plan involves my blood doesn't it?" Mira nodded and said "I didn't want to ask you again, since it would make Ocis mad." Thomas sat down and tilted his head as he said "I'm sure she won't mind so just get some blood before those people show up." Mira nodded and bit into his neck as Ocis said "I won't get mad if he's fine with it." As Mira was sucking Thomas's blood a small army of people heavily armed began to approach Mira's house. Thomas glanced at them and said "Either they're going to a war in the next city or they're the ones that are going to attack you." Mira let go of Thomas's neck and said "I should have enough blood to beat them all myself now."
