A massive headache throbbed in my skull, as if someone had repeatedly struck my head with a baseball bat. No, it felt more like several needles were piercing through my brain.
This agonizing pain... Maybe it was a side effect of my soul temporarily leaving my body.
Despite the pain, I forced my eyes open. The first things I saw were the familiar faces of Jung Yunhee and Angelica.
"Jakga, you're awake!"
"Ugh... My head hurts."
I slowly propped myself up, rubbing my temples to ease the ache. Once the pain subsided slightly, I looked around and realized I was lying on a clearing.
The forest surrounding us was burning, and the battle was still raging. But more importantly...
"What happened? How..."
"Lee Suhye dragged you out of the forest." Jung Yunhee answered with a flat voice. She seemed rather exhausted.
She did?" I struggled to recall the events. "Where is she?"
"She's over there but her condition is not good."
