Chapter 395 - Don't Leave Me

It wasn't until Dan Heng rushed to Twilight's side that he realized he seemed helpless.

Twilight was now severely injured, but he had no way to heal her—he wasn't a doctor. Dan Heng could only watch the countless bleeding wounds on Twilight's body, watching her twisted arm sway in the air as if boneless.

He was also helpless about Twilight's crying. She was looking for Caelus, but Caelus had been taken away somewhere in the previous attack… Dan Heng couldn't find him either, let alone have him comfort Twilight.

This train guard, who usually didn't show his emotions, didn't even dare to support Twilight now, afraid of touching her wounds again. He could only stand beside her awkwardly, clumsily comforting her.

"Don't be afraid, Twilight, I'll find Caelus soon… I'll find a doctor, please don't cry."

Don't cry?

What a joke. As the saying goes, the crying child gets the candy. If she didn't cry, where would she make up for the missing energy?!

But Dan Heng came to comfort me, I should at least show some reaction…

Hearing Dan Heng's voice, Twilight's crying subsided a little, but the tears showed no signs of stopping, still sobbing uncontrollably. She even lowered her head, somewhat afraid to look at Dan Heng.

This didn't look like she was comforted, but rather like she was forcing herself to lower her voice because Dan Heng told her not to cry and she was afraid of being disliked by him.

This situation made Dan Heng feel even more helpless and distressed. Although his memories from his previous life were vast, he had indeed never experienced a good solution for this kind of situation.

He just wanted to comfort Twilight, not order or scare her…

Roar roar, this wave seems to be able to farm quite a bit of energy~ Although Caelus was NTR'd away for a while, taking this opportunity to farm a wave of energy wasn't a loss. Just from Dan Heng alone, she had easily farmed over 10,000 energy. Adding March 7th and the others later would be a good income too.

However, Twilight felt that part of the reason she could farm this wave of energy so easily was thanks to the person who attacked her—these injuries were created just right!

Although they were indeed serious, they perfectly portrayed the miserable and pitiful side. Even Herta would shake her head upon seeing this, let alone Dan Heng.

Twilight felt that even if she carefully planned it herself, she probably couldn't achieve a better effect, to the point where she even wanted to thank the blonde for such perfect cooperation.

What a pity. Such a useful person was actually an enemy who stole her favorability and energy…

Hmph, Caelus, just fool around outside with the blonde! And those fickle DD players… When you come back, I'll make you feel extremely guilty and explode with gold coins and favorability!

While Twilight was scheming darkly in her heart, March 7th and Welt finally arrived. Seeing Twilight's serious injuries, their faces immediately changed drastically.

Qlipoth Fort had already been cleared of all personnel by Cocolia, and now even the entire building had disappeared, let alone finding a doctor nearby. Plus, it was unknown if the attacker was still lurking around, waiting for an opportunity.

Helplessly, the group, unable to find the missing Caelus, decided to first take Twilight somewhere to treat her injuries.

To be honest, these injuries might be serious to others, but for Twilight, who could change her power type at any time, it wasn't a big deal. She just needed to switch her Path power to Abundance.

Let alone a broken arm and some extra wounds, even if she were skewered, she wouldn't care. She could regenerate completely with just a little effort.

But why would she do that?

Since she was playing pitiful, she naturally had to play it for a while longer, fully utilizing this trick that might only work once…

Suddenly encountering an enemy stronger than herself, failing to protect her favorite Caelus, leading to his unknown whereabouts, even suspecting that he abandoned her because she was useless… Combining all these negative situations, it was reasonable for this little baby to forget about the powers she hadn't used yet in her panic, right?

After all, she wasn't even two months old!

But playing pitiful was also a skill, not something that could be achieved just by pretending to cry. Therefore, for more favorability and energy, Twilight decisively chose to roll her eyes and faint.

When Twilight, who had slept beautifully, opened her eyes, she saw an unfamiliar ceiling.

Twilight opened the map and took a look. She was still in Belobog. Judging from the smell of disinfectant lingering in the air and the plaster cast and bandages wrapped around her arm, Dan Heng and the others must have found a clinic and settled her down temporarily.

Seeing Twilight open her eyes, Dan Heng, who had been guarding the bedside, immediately got up and walked over: "Twilight, how are you? Does it… still hurt?"

It doesn't hurt at all, bro. Mere thousands of cuts, watch me endure it all with pain control!

"It doesn't hurt much…"

Twilight struggled to sit up and immediately began to frantically scan her surroundings. Dan Heng immediately understood what she was looking for: "Caelus, isn't here… We haven't found him yet."

Dan Heng knew he would have to answer this question eventually, but seeing her little face instantly turn pale, he still felt a pang of sadness: "Uncle Yang and March have gone to find him… The Stellaron's interference with Jarilo seems to have intensified. Communication methods aren't working properly, and we can't contact him directly either."

"Did Caelus… abandon me?"

Twilight's voice was cautious, like a baby abandoned by its mother: "I, I didn't do well, so…!"

"You don't need to worry about that, Twilight. Caelus was just temporarily taken away by some bad people, he'll be back soon… Doesn't he dote on you the most? How could he possibly abandon you? He must be trying to find a way back right now…"

No, he's already happy and forgot about me.

Of course, Twilight wouldn't be tactless enough to say such unpleasant facts out loud. She just silently lowered her head like a child who had done something wrong.

Usually, her emotional fluctuations don't seem very intense, but whenever it involves Caelus, she becomes particularly emotional… As expected, Twilight's favorite person is still Caelus.

No choice, I should go tell March and Uncle Yang that Twilight has woken up and ask if they've found any trace of Caelus.

Dan Heng, who wasn't good with words, didn't know how to comfort Twilight. Always better at doing things than talking, he could only silently stand up and walk towards the door: "Twilight, you lie here first and don't move. I'll go find Uncle Yang and March and ask if they have—"

Dan Heng's voice stopped, as did his footsteps. He couldn't walk out the door because a trembling hand was tightly clutching the hem of his clothes.

"Don't, don't go…"

Dan Heng turned around in surprise and found Twilight frantically pulling at his clothes, her face full of panic: "Don't leave me…"
