Wilfred noticed the dust on Nina's clothes and the redness in her eyes.
She was willing to do anything for Orion, acting swiftly and decisively. He had wanted to accompany her, but Nash had already taken that role, leaving him to stay behind and assist Pharaoh in saving Orion. When the Yaren Tribe was attacked, he and Pharaoh were both busy tending to the injured. Now, Pharaoh was in the lab, and Wilfred was by Micah's side.
Hearing Wilfred's update, Nina finally let out a sigh of relief. Micah was going to be okay. She also noticed Freya, who was steadfastly watching over Micah.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFreya had once seen Nina as a rival, but now she was staying by Micah's side, clearly devoted to him. Nina realized there was no need for her to linger and play the third wheel.
Nina and Nash quietly left, and Wilfred, finding it inconvenient to stay as well, told Freya, "If you need anything, just call me. I'll be right outside." "Alright," Freya nodded, and Wilfred stepped out.
Freya remained by Micah's side, her gaze filled with determination. She had only one thought which was to stay with him until he woke up.
Outside the tent, Wilfred could not shake the restlessness in his heart. Unable to calm down, he lit a cigarette. Meanwhile, back at their quarters, a helper had prepared fresh clothes, food, and drinks for Nina, courtesy of Mr. Joker. Nina went to take a bath, with Nash standing guard outside.
Mr. Joker approached Nash. "Captain York, you don't have to stand guard so diligently. The Yaren Tribe is perfectly secure. We won't let Miss Ivy cto any harm." The Yaren Tribe would ensure Nina's safety, but Nash felt the need to stay close, just in case. It was both necessary and instinctual. More importantly, he wanted to be nearby in case Nina needed him. "You can go about your business," Nash replied.
But just as he spoke, Nina's voice called out from the bathroom, hoarse and slightly embarrassed, "Nash, are you still out there? Can you cin and help me?" "I'm here," Nash answered, striding toward the bathroom.
He knocked lightly on the door, and once Nina knew it was him, she opened it and let him in.
Nina had already taken off her clothes, and as Nash looked at her, he saw several red marks and scratches on her fair back. It pained him to think that she had fought a tiger while injured and had not said a word about it. She had endured so much over the past five years and had grown so much stronger.

His heart ached, wishing he had ssort of superpower. If he did, he could be there instantly whenever she was in danger, sparing them from all the tthey had spent apart. en As he turned to leave, his eyes grew misty.
When Nash found Wilfred and asked for the medicine, Wilfred immediately knew that Nina was hurt. But with Nash around, he had no chance to express his concern directly.
All he could do was give Nash the instructions, This is for external use, and this one is to be taken internally. They'll help her heal faster, and there won't be any scarring. But make sure she doesn't get the wounds wet after applying the ointment to avoid any chance of infection." "Got it," Nash nodded and left.
Wilfred watched Nash's figure disappear into the distance, and for a moment a strange illusion washed over him.
It felt as if he were Nash, as if it were he who stood before Nina instead. Theldonten
