The next day.
Aurora, Rachel, and Amber took turns guarding the room where Aiden was resting. The village healer had tried her best to heal Aiden, either using simple massage techniques or herbal potions.
Still, there was no sign Aiden would recover. The healer's temporary guess was that Aiden had been injured by a magic attack and could only be healed by magic energy. Aurora nodded.
Today, it was Aurora's turn to guard Aiden in his inn room. Both of her hands continued to stretch forward, emitting ice-blue magic energy absorbed by Aiden.
Amber had gone to accompany Rachel to hunt monsters in the forest, while Fiona had gone to Alron City to deliver the results of their mission.
"Aiden?" greeted Aurora, softly.
"When are you going to wake up?" she asked again, still streaming her ice-blue magic energy forward.
