I heard no fighting going on here. I expected a clash between a Demigod and a strong Mortal would be noisy. Rancorous. Yet, I heard nothing but the peaceful whistle of the wind. I look yonder about, searching for any signs.
My ears twitched. I turned around, sensing something. Looking down at a patch of flowers, I said something quietly.
'Who's there?'
Imagine my shock when those flowers jostled aside to reveal the gruesome shape of Ludwyhn's condition when the hiding Demigod stood. His arms were cleaved and his neck was sliced. He was on the receiving end of something brutal...
[LUDWYHN] "KGH! UGhck...." He gasped.
I was frozen solid. He sustained this much damage? And he wasn't regenerating the wounds either. He had been hit by a strong Death Knell...
He could only speak to my mind, and I listened to his thoughts.
[LUDWYHN] "L-Lass! Ith's not safe here! G-Get ougt' while ye' can! Leev' me. I'm a goner... cannae' beat 'im... he's too strong... he's a frrrrEAK! A monster!"
'Just be steady, I'll use a Life Art on you! I'll help!'
I reached out for Ludwyhn, and he stepped back.
'What...? I'm trying to help you...!'
He shook his head and stepped back again.
That's when I realized he wasn't looking at me.
