Chapter 5
Part 1
----[Underwood] VIP room, Kasukabe Yō’s bedroom.
Yō came to all of a sudden and her eyes snapped open.
The moisture saturated air that is unique to the water tree stimulated Yō’s nasal airway. It would seem that this was a room in the Great Water Tree. Still in a daze, she turned her head to the side and saw Calico cat.
Calico cat alerted by her movement, ran over to her side immediately.
“Ou, Oujo! Are you okay?”
“….Calico Cat.”
Having been hurt in the battle with the huge dragon, Calico cat had been undergoing treatment in [Underwood]. Though bandages were still wrapped around his belly, he still ran over to show his concern about Yō’s body condition.
“Oujo, you really scared me there! Seeing them carry you back here and out of it too, my old legs almost gave way under me too! Word was that you were knocked out of it by a person who intervened in the fight…. Is it still painful?”
Knocked out of it by a person who intervened--- Hearing that, Yō finally got a grasp of the current situation.
“…I lost?”
“The fight? The conflict was ended with a [K.O both sides].”
“…?”
Not understanding what Calico cat meant, Yō tilted her head in confusion. But soon propped her body up as she slid her legs over the bed’s edge to get off. And that was when a sudden stab of pain coursed through her abdomen.
“Wu……!”
The throbbing dull pain caused her to feel faint and sit on the floor. However, Yō wasn’t destabilized by her injury but it was more of surprise. The pain wasn’t unbearable and hence she could conclude that it was a light one.
However, Yō could not remember the cause for this pain.
Giffith was in the battle stance that utilized lightning and whirlwinds that were generated from himself. Following that line of thought, a throbbing dull pain in the abdomen would be very strange. Not to forget the fact that she hadn’t sustain any other injuries on the other parts of her body.
“Who…..”
Who----was it that defeated me?
