The wound was deep and closed but showed how fresh it still was. Arianell's eyes flickered with worries, as she was reminded of the injuries of someone else.
"That cut… How did you get that?"
"Ah, that? I fought with a demonic beast about a week ago. It was a random encounter…" Kemal answered like it was no big deal.
"Demon? I heard it's rare for them to wander to the opposite side of the Forest…"
"It was a stray, I think. Besides the battlefield is very chaotic right now, many beasts have scattered around, losing their way to the main camp… Accidents are prone to happen from time to time. It was just a light scratch on my back, I was lucky," he made it sound light, but she knew that the clash with the demonic beast couldn't be so simple.
Unlike his kind face, Kemal must be a strong fighter too.
"Ah, please don't worry… I barely feel any pain," he said quickly after observing her grim expression.
He wasn't lying.
