Lewis keep his face straight while tightly gripping Amishta in his arms. Amishta may be seriously wounded but not unconscious thus Lewis still control Amishta's body. Lewis was basically thinking of fighting with the assassins while protecting Amishta in his arms.
"Yo---you cannn jussstt-"
"Shut up! You need to conserve your strength. Just hold on. I will probably win in a moment." Lewis whispered to Amishta and moved faster to dodge the attack. He tried his very best not to aggravate Amishta's wound so he takes small cuts for it.
"She is really something isn't she." The assassin leader smirked and signaled them to attack continuously but Lewis is way much more strong than they think. His nickname as a devil really puts up to his name.
"Attack that woman!" They all forget about Lewis and tried to attack Amishta. Lewis was still strong at first but as many assassin was attacking Amishta from all side, Lewis was being wounded as he try to save Amishta. She was vulnerable as her strength was just barely enough for her to be conscious.
"Leave." Amishta lastly stated before she passed out. Lewis then was way more afraid of their situation. He was also wounded but most especially Amishta is total endanger. He needs to ask a doctor again or else she might really be gone forever.
Lewis give everything to his power thus even with wounds he was able to make the assassins step aside from them. He is really powerful but miserable at the moment.
"All out attack!" They all attacked Amishta and Lewis just can't help but protect her. As he was being serious in killing most assassin the leader was tricky enough to make a move and tried to stab Amishta at back but Lewis seen through his action and twist Amishta thus making him a wound in the arms. Lewis strength was immediately reduced as the sword was poisoned.
Lewis dropped with Amishta on the floor and as they targeted Amishta, Guard Left suddenly appear and save her. He was the guard who was with her after arriving at Jinya but he was already become her shadow back then though she encountered dangerous scenes but since her life is at stake he doesn't appear not like today.
Lewis was still hesitating to let go of Amishta even if Guard Left saved her. He still doesn't sure about him but in the end he just let go. Atleast he knows that the man wouldn't want Amishta to die and that she will be saved today.
"Please, save her." Lewis weakly stated. The poison easily get into his system and weakens every part of his body. So long as Amishta will stay alive then he doesn't think pleading is too much. With his status this is probably the first time that he plead for someone.
Left knew how Lewis save Amishta so he just nodded at him. Since he know that somehow the man is important to her master then he speedily made him drink the antidote for the poison without anyone looking to it. He just finished some assassins and left as Amishta was endanger.
Left carrying Amishta arrived in a private manor and directly enter a room. There was an middle age man seriously paint a photo of a woman very similar to Amishta. The man turned his head and looked up to Left. He was about to throw him a knife when he noticed the woman he was carrying.
He actually run towards Amishta and asked Left to laid her in the bed. He was quite nervous about Amishta but he just keep his calm and diagnosed her. If it would probably someone he might not even see her and just say that she is close to die but since she is Amishta as a known physician he can do something about it.
Guard Left gave all the right to the man to make Amishta better. He left the scene and inform General Hiro about Amishta's condition. He was probably the only person who can keep calm with Amishta's condition so he was the only person he inform to. General Hiro then come with Left to go to Amishta.
General Hiro enter the room and saw Amishta with lots of bandage but his anger suddenly arise when he saw the man who is diagnosing Amishta. He was about to launch an attack but Left prevented him and dragged him outside.
"You can't attack my teacher. He is the only person who can save Amishta right now. Amishta was not immortal as you believe. She was badly wounded and was barely alive when I save her today." Left explained that lessen Hiro's agitation but Hiro was still angry and attack Left with his sword. Left was unattended thus he suffered from a cut.
They fought making the scene very chaotic. They even created a false alarm for the servants and guards of the manor. As soon as place will turn more chaotic the middle aged man arrived.
"Stop! Amishta is in critical condition right now and I myself was not even confident with---" Hiro just punched him in the face. He doesn't react but taste the blood coming from his mouth.
"Since you are a God Physician, shouldn't such wounds was just basic to you. Or are you saying that leaving my sister back then for your ever wanted Physician dream was a big joke!" Hiro shouted and his anger was really seen through. The man gripped his fingers and just stare at Hiro.
"I trusted you to be with my sister. I trusted you to not hurt my sister but in the end you left. She was devastated that moment and the King came thus marrying him. If probably you married her then she should still be alive. I treated you as a friend but you are just a coward!" Hiro shouted. They didn't see each other for a decade but the thought of being left by a friend was very obvious to Hiro.
He was the first buddy that Hiro trusted thus he was quite emotional when it comes to him. He was a son of the previous servant they have and considering that they were loyal Hiro's father decided to make him live with them. Hiro doesn't hate the idea but he just don't care as the only matter to him was his sister.
"We can only observe Amishta for this coming days, especially tonight. If things won't go wrong then she will be fine. No worries. I will do everything beyond my powers to keep her." He said and walked away. Hiro just watch him and enter Amishta's room.
Left followed his teacher to his study room and quietly observed him. Left is the only disciple he has and after teaching him martial arts he assigned him to be a servant of the Queen. He did everything just to make his teacher wished but in the end he just watched the Queen died.
Left was just first obeying his teacher but as he got to know the Queen, he become a real servant of the Queen. He become the leader of Dark Knights which is a private guard of the Queen. As the Queen died, they were disbanded and only finding time for the Queen's token to be seen and they will appear again. Left just insisted to look for Amishta for the Queen.
He was obviously disappointed with Amishta's attitude as she grow up but the sudden changes of her made him think of the Queen thus insisting of being her guard. He don't want to be his guard at all times but only guard when she needed the most as to train her as like her mother.
"Teacher, did you ever regret your decision?" Left suddenly blunted. He only got a stare as an answer.
"Teacher, I know that you still love my master and obviously my master loved you either. She was very genuine when she accept me after knowing that you sent me to protect you. She actually wanted to give me back to you as she knew that you probably send me as you are guilty. I insist and work with her. She was really in love with the king but she never forget you as a friend."
"I---"
"Master! The young lady was rather in a bad condition!" The servant speedily stated and inform them. They were all worried and run towards Amishta. They saw Hiro with drops of sweat while trying to pacify Amishta. She was having a high fever and she seemed to be having a nightmare.
Hiro saw them coming and hesitantly try to move aside to made him look at her but Amishta hold his hand very tightly and Hiro can't just remove it. The physician asked many herbal things for the servant to prepare and ready his acupuncture needle.
"Save him!" Amishta said while unconscious. Hiro cannot just see her like that and just agree to her even if she was unconscious.
"Okay. I will." They were taken a back when Amishta suddenly calm down. She was probably taken by Hiro's serious agreement. Left suddenly thought of the injured man with Amishta.
"Lewis."
