After Princess Seraphina left, and thanks to her healing magic cast on him, Elion woke up soon, in about an hour.
"Ugh." He groaned as he slowly regained consciousness.
His gaze drifted to the ground around him. Dried blood stained the soil.
His body was aching all over, but the pain was manageable. He has felt worse.
'I remember my muscles were torn and my mana core was cracked during the training… How am I healed?'
[It seems you charmed the vampire Princess, not bad, kid. So young and already a playboy. She came here and healed you.]
'Uh?" Elion was surprised. 'How could I? Maybe she was just passing, saw me all hurt, and decided to help a fellow student.'
[I wonder about that… ]
Valen chose to stay silent about the fact that the Princess had eagerly licked Elion's blood, her face flushing with pleasure while doing it.
He figured it was better not to tarnish the image of royalty in Elion's mind.
