Some minutes later.
'Yeah, it looks like this is really his limit… It was a lot more than I expected actually. It seems to me that this boy really deserved his title of genius…gênio
Sophia looked apprehensively at Noah, who was standing beside her. And to Xiao Yun, who was surrounded by guards.
'Seriously, is he really not going to do anything to stop this? But if Xiao Yun dies, my father will…'
Xiao Yun was, as were all the guards around him. With small cuts on his clothes, arms, legs and also on his face. But these minor injuries weren't really a problem for him.
Well, the real complication was in his belly. His wound opened up completely and by the time he struggled he lost so much blood that he was about to pass out.
And the exhaustion was obvious, for both sides. Since with their ragged breaths, the guards clearly demonstrated that they were each more tired than the other.
'He lost so much blood and yet he is managing to stand upright… This boy is not a genius, but a monster. How can the Xiao family lose such talent…' the team leader looked at Noah 'And what is this boy wanting? Sophia has already told him, that the boy from the Xiao family cannot be killed… does he really not care?…'
Vision blurred and blurred, the whole body trembling. That's how Xiao Yun was. He could barely see, the guards in front of him right in front of him. And his hands were shaking so badly, he had to use his other one too, to at least be able to keep his sword aloft.
"I promise I'll make it… I'll help you… so wait Xiao…"
From cloudy, his vision was deteriorating little by little, until reaching the moment where, Xiao Yun couldn't see anything else that was in front of him. And in place of the thought, which moments before was trustworthy, was 'I'm sorry…' When he lost all his remaining strength, and along with that, the trust that he could fulfill his promise, which he had made a long time ago.
Since, without having more strength in his body and not being able to see anything anymore. There wasn't much he could do, so much so that his hands, which were shaking more and more, practically let go of the sword he was holding so tightly.
And his body, which was staggering from side to side, was taken to the ground by a weak and simple breeze, which happened coincidentally at that time.
Paralyzed, that was how the guards were. Because as they looked at Xiao Yun, staggering and about to fall. It may have been involuntary, but from each of them came a brief sigh of relief as they put away their weapons.
After he had put away his sword, the team leader was about to go to Xiao Yun, so he could come to his aid. But to his surprise, as well as the other guards, Noah suddenly appeared behind the Xiao family boy and grabbed his shoulders so he wouldn't fall.
'How… how could he be so fast?…' thought the team leader.
And seeing that Noah came to help him, Sophia was also super relieved "Whew! I didn't think he would wait that long to do this." she muttered.
Noah looked Xiao Yun up and down, and said, "Hey, could any of you go get me some clothes?"
"A clothe?! He's about to die from the injury, and that's what you're worried about?" exclaimed Sophia as she approached.
"Either or or, calm down. I understand, ok? Nothing can happen to him, otherwise something will happen to his family. I understood. So he calms down and asks someone to get him some clothes. That I'll take care of it."
Noah took Xiao Yun on his lap and started walking towards the bedroom "It's not just my family, who are in danger here! So how do you intend to take care of him?"
"The clothes!"
"What?! You…" She sighed to keep calm "Go and get the clothes. And take the opportunity to call a doctor too."
"Yes, Srt!"
The team leader approached Sophia and, while looking at the bedroom door he asked "What do you think that boy will do? Because of the struggle, the cut must have been completely open, so I'm afraid the child of the Xiao family…"
"Don't even think about it… I really hope Noah has a plan, why not. As much as he wants to, not even my father will be able to help him... "
*********
With the door locked and Xiao Yun lying on the bed. As he lost more and more blood. Noah then stood up and asked "They still have wound pills, right?"
[Affirmative!]
"Okay, so give me one."
[But for what kind of injury, exactly?]
"And is there such a thing?"
[No!]
"Your system…" he sighed "Just give it to me, the one that has the quickest effect."
[Affirmative!]
A green pill, with a few clouds around it, appeared in the air, right in front of Noah. He then took the pill in his hands "Let's see…" opened Xiao Yun's mouth and put the pill inside "Ready! Now it's just wait, right? And how long will this take?"
[Maximum 20 minutes. But he will have to swallow the pill for it to take effect.]
"What?! What the fuck! And like the fuck, am I going to make someone unconscious swallow that?!"
Noah then started slapping Xiao Yun weakly in the face, trying to make him wake up, while saying repeatedly "Hey boy… Wake up… Wake up…"
But unlike what he thought, Xiao Yun wasn't really out. He just barely had the strength to do anything else, thanks to the amount of blood he lost. But using the rest of the strength he had left, Xiao Yun made a last effort to swallow that small sphere, which was emitting a strange heat, inside his mouth.
'What is this?…' Xiao Yun wondered, when he opened his eyes and saw a huge green dragon coming quickly towards him.
He tried to escape, but for some reason his body wouldn't move "What?!" And looking down, and seeing that big void where he was, Xiao was absolutely confused. But he didn't have much time to think about it, as without him even realizing it, the dragon was already right in front of him.
'Aaaaahh!…'
"Aaaaahh!"
"Or or, what a "Aaaaahh!" was this one? Have you lost your mind?"
"What happened?!" Sophia asked as she opened the door and entered with the guards.
"Again? Seriously? And where are the clothes?"
"Don't give me that! Tell me what happened to him first?"
"What happened? With whom? Didn't I say I would take care of him? So, there you go."
Sophia approached "But then… why did he scream?"
"And will I know? He just woke up screaming like a madman."
"Okay, and how did you do to..."
"Mr, here is the doctor." the guard passed the doctor by his colleagues, and handed Sophia the clothes in her hands "And the clothes..."
"Thanks." she thanked smiling "And welcome doctor."
Gray hair due to age. Something like a white coat over her black clothes and a soft smile on her face "Oh thank you Mr Radiance. And could you tell me, why have you asked me to come here?"
"Oh, this?" she walked over to the bedside "Could you take a look at it for me?"
The doctor looked briefly at Xiao Yun, who was sitting on the bed stretching "But Srt, this boy… seems to be perfectly fine…"
