After Xia Sheng severed the goblin's head with a single sword strike, he lost all his strength and fell backward helplessly.
"Natsuo!" Shiina Mahiru quickly supported him from behind.
However, she wasn't strong enough and could only help Xia Sheng slowly sit down on the ground.
"Are you alright? Are you badly hurt? Don't scare me." Shiina Mahiru asked anxiously, her voice full of worry.
Her delicate face was filled with tension and heartache, and she looked like she was about to cry.
Xia Sheng looked so pitiful.
She had witnessed his desperate struggle with the goblin, coughing up blood and being repeatedly punched in the back... She had never seen such a terrifying scene before.
Xia Sheng's face was still so pale, with red and purple blood all over his body. She was really afraid that something might happen to him.
"Natsuo... How are you feeling?" Yukino Yukinoshita squatted down on the other side, looking at him with concern, and asked softly.
She vividly remembered Xia Sheng's desperate efforts; it pained her deeply.
He risked his life so much, all to protect them.
"I shouldn't... die..." Xia Sheng forced a smile and replied weakly.
Although his whole body felt like it was falling apart and he had no strength left, he didn't feel any damage to his body.
The bone should not be broken.
It's unclear whether his body had become stronger and his defenses had improved; or whether this place was special and less prone to injury; or whether the goblin was in pain and unable to exert his full strength.
Xia Sheng felt that all three were true.
"Don't say the word 'death'!" Shiina Mahiru scolded angrily.
"Don't worry, I'm not willing to die. I'm feeling great right now." Natsumi looked up at Shiina Mahiru and smiled.
Shiina Mahiru's body smelled sweet and soft, and he felt very comfortable leaning against her.
It felt no worse than holding her in my arms.
However, those were soft loungewear, while now they are stiffer sportswear, so there is still a difference.
"What time is it? How can you still say such things?" Shiina Mahiru glared at him.
"Hehe~ We finally won, of course we have to enjoy the moment. Don't worry, I just feel like I'm out of energy."
"Let's talk when you're really alright. You've vomited blood... I need to check on you properly tomorrow." Shiina Mahiru didn't dare to examine Natsuo's condition right now.
She was afraid that if she moved, she would aggravate his injury.
"Natsuki, be sure to report your physical condition in the group chat tomorrow," Yukino Yukinoshita instructed.
The situation here is ultimately special. If he develops health problems after returning, it's possible that, for both public and private reasons, Yukino Shinobu doesn't want Xia Sheng's health to suffer any issues.
"Okay, I'll definitely tell the truth," Xia Sheng assured him. It's truly a blessing to have someone care and worry about you.
He won't act tough; he'll say what he thinks, otherwise, he'll only cause accidents and harm them.
"That's fine. If you don't tell me by nine o'clock, I'll come directly to check on the situation," Yukino Yukinoshita warned sternly.
"If that's how you put it, then maybe it's better for me not to say anything?"
"Don't make me worry," Yukino Yukinoshita whispered.
"Well, I'll tell you anyway." Xia Sheng blinked at her, then softened and changed his mind.
How could Zu Lu's sudden outburst of feelings be so adorable?
"I'm saying, I'm still here, and you're in my arms, showing off your affection right in front of me?" Shiina Mahiru expressed her dissatisfaction.
"We didn't show any affection," Yukino Yukinoshita calmly denied.
"Say whatever you want, all I want to know is how you'll feel when you kiss Natsumi."
"...Mahiru, you're definitely not the angel everyone thinks you are." Yukino Yukinoshita looked at her helplessly.
"That was just how I presented myself, but now, this is my true self," Shiina Mahiru said with a slight smile.
"It's fine. Although it's a bit morbid, I prefer you the way you are." Yukino Yukinoshita nodded nonchalantly.
"Is that so... And what about you?" Shiina Mahiru asked Natsumi, looking down at him.
"Me? Need I say more? I like you no matter what." Xia Sheng answered decisively.
"Like this~" Shiina Mahiru smiled happily, her smile as bright and sunny as a true angel.
At that moment, her smile came from the heart.
"It seems everything is alright now." Yukino Yukinoshita looked at the two who suddenly became oblivious to everyone else and said coldly.
"I think so too," Shiina Mahiru chimed in.
"No way... my whole body aches, I might wake up in pain as soon as I get back," Xia Sheng confessed pitifully.
"The soreness is actually a good thing, it means there's nothing seriously wrong." Yukino Yukinoshita smiled faintly.
"Really? Then I'm relieved." Shiina Mahiru said with a smile as well.
Why are these two suddenly targeting him together?
He's injured.
[Successfully eliminated the second layer of intruders. Reward: Iron Sword weapon, 1 special attribute point.]
At this moment, his notification sound soothed Xia Sheng's wounded heart.
As expected, the wooden sword was replaced, after all, the threat of the goblins was still too great.
He gave it his all this time, but what about next time?
He could be in danger if he is not careful.
Moreover, the invaders will become stronger. If the next big goblin has any ideas, it will split up and act separately, which will make it difficult for Xia Sheng to deal with.
Upgrading weapons is therefore very important.
But why does he only give him rewards that barely cover the intruders each time?
If we simply make him powerful, we won't need to worry about invaders at all.
Is it possible that his body needs to gradually adapt to the routine, or is it that he cannot give him enough ability all at once?
Xia Sheng could guess that the latter was more likely.
If we had the capability, the invaders wouldn't have been able to come at all.
Perhaps, somewhere unknown, they are also fighting against something.
"It seems there's no danger anymore." Yukino Yukinoshita suddenly reminded her feet, which began to fade into the background; the mission was complete.
"Well, we weren't much of a help." Shiina Mahiru sighed helplessly.
"It's all thanks to you guys, otherwise I think you would have really been in trouble," Xia Sheng retorted.
"No, if you hadn't used telepathy to get our help, we wouldn't know what to do." Shiina Mahiru shook her head, denying that it was Natsuo who had used telepathy to get them to come and help her and Yukino Yukinoshita.
At that time, the two of them were only concerned about him.
The scene was far too bloody and horrific.
"But in the end, you guys came to help me." Xia Sheng insisted that he was very grateful to them.
He couldn't have achieved today's victory alone.
"Well, you're doing this to protect us, otherwise, you would have had many other ways to deal with it, right?" Yukino Yukinoshita chimed in.
"You can't say it like that..."

"Then let's not distinguish between you and me. Since we're comrades, let's just enjoy the outcome together," Yukino Yukinoshita interrupted gently.
"That's true."
"Okay..." Shiina Mahiru accepted it readily. "Remember to let the group know you're safe in the morning." Yukino Yukinoshita emphasized again at the last moment.
As soon as she finished speaking, the three of them left the place together.
This space returned to peace once again.
A few seconds later, there was a sudden movement. The ground seemed to be shaking, and the goblin's body, including its blood, was slowly dissolving into the ground.
Until it completely dissolves and disappears.
The crater created by the goblin has also disappeared.
Here, everything has been restored to its original state.
The next day, Xia Sheng opened his eyes, his eyes bright and spirited.
He got up full of energy, then got out of bed and stretched his body.
He was light and agile, without any injuries whatsoever.
Did you recover from your injuries directly after returning from that place?
Xia Sheng didn't think that with his body, after suffering such an injury, he would be completely fine after waking up.
This is good information, but he won't take advantage of it. Who knows what the recovery rate will be? What if the severed limbs can't be restored?
It's better to be on the safe side.
"It seems everything is alright."
Suddenly, the door was pushed open, and Shiina Mahiru let out a sigh of relief.
