Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 485 Doctor
"Kularis!"

"Eh? Sister."

While the four giants were whispering outside, a girl named Samir named Kulala had just returned to the tent. She took off her cloak, shook off the snowflakes on her long black hair, rubbed her palms and raised her eyebrows, and said, "Tell me the truth, what were you doing just now?"

"Nothing, nothing. I didn't do anything!" Kularis said with a guilty conscience. "I just followed my sister's instructions and stayed in bed to rest. Yes, I also read a painting for a while!"

"Hmph!" Kurala glanced at her sister, took a step forward and lifted the balled-up quilt on the bed, revealing a basket full of needles and thread and a half-knitted military sweater.

"Tell me, what is this?"

"Well, well," Kularis stuttered a few words, and finally gave up on quibbling, pouting and saying, "I just want to live in the camp and be taken care of, so I have to do something to help everyone. It's not enough to just rely on my sister to help in the wounded camp."

"Kid, I've told you that your leg injury is too severe. You need to rest for a year to recover. Even if you want to repay everyone, it won't be too late to do something after your injury is completely healed—"

Kulala walked to the bedside and sat down, complaining and distressed. She first checked the charred and mottled skin at the broken part of her sister's left leg again. She resisted the sour feeling in her nose, rubbed her palms to warm them, touched her sister's hair, and asked with a suppressed nasal voice, "How many have you done these days?"

“Seven and a half pieces. Hehe, isn’t that impressive?” Kularis rubbed her little head against her sister’s palm. “Although there are only two of us left in the Kuerros clan, we can’t bring shame to the tribesmen who died in the battle. The village chief, Granny Vishi, and Brother Callister have all turned into stars and are watching us from the sky.”

"Yes, they are all watching us in the sky."

Kulara didn't pursue the matter further, but just gently hugged her sister's petite body.

Malnutrition in her early years and serious injuries later on once brought this body to the brink of death. Fortunately, with adequate care over the past six months, Kularis has finally regained some of the youth and vitality that she should have at this age.

"Cough, cough." Polyus coughed softly outside the tent, startling the two little girls so much that they straightened up like frightened birds.

"Ice-Lord Boileus!" Kulara hurriedly stood up and saluted, and Kularis also struggled to reach out to touch the crutch beside the bed.

Since Lord Borelius forbade them to call him "Ice Dragon God", many Samir people were not used to it and would call him by the wrong name. Lord Borelius would not really punish them, but would often get angry with a dark face and sternly warn them not to do it again.

Kularis was a little slow due to her inconvenience in moving, and just happened to see three figures entering the tent with Bolerius, "Hey, there's also Lord Oleg, Brother Gantia, and the last one is..."

They all knew Adam's real name, but Adam still wanted them to call him by the alias he used in Kuerroth, firstly to remind him not to forget the blood feud, and secondly to remember his deceased brother.

When they saw Lucia, the two little girls' eyes widened.

Originally, they thought that Lord Polyleus' true appearance was majestic and solemn, Lord Oleg was thin and solemn, and the youngest brother Adam was heroic and handsome, but the young man in front of them looked only about twenty years old - even if they exhausted all their dreams in their lives, they could not imagine such an extraordinary person.

He just stood there, and the other three outstanding heroes became stars guarding the bright moon. Even without saying a word, the brilliance they emitted was so dazzling.

Lucia stopped the honorific that Borelius was about to say, took two steps forward and leaned over to sit beside Kularis's bed, showing a gentle smile and said, "I heard that these are the current chief and deputy chief of our Kuerros clan?"

"Ah" Kularis nodded stupidly, then shook her head in panic after coming to her senses, saying: "No, no, how can two children like us be the clan leaders?" Seeing this, Kulari hurriedly bowed her head and apologized, saying: "My lord, please forgive my sister's rudeness, she was just nervous for a moment--"

"It's okay. You don't have to call me sir."

"Today, I am just a doctor who was ordered to treat Kularis's leg injury, that's all."

Lucia looked at the two Samir girls with a peaceful and warm gaze. Even though he knew that all his memories of his "past life" were rooted in the deduction of the power of time and space, when he actually saw the two girls who had turned into jellyfish in his memory appear alive in front of him, he still felt a sense of disillusionment and throbbing in his heart as if a dream had shone into reality.

That world line in which the world collapsed and all living beings died was like a long dream that stopped in the Supreme Egg. At this moment, he actually went upstream along the long river of time and returned to the beginning of all the nightmares and the beginning of all the tragedies. He could rewrite it all with his own hands.

This time, the two girls can really go to see the stars together at the age of fourteen.

"Treatment. Leg injury?"

Kularis' eyes widened in disbelief, "But... but everyone said that my legs were completely burned, and it's almost impossible for anyone to heal them."

Lucia smiled as she looked at the girl who was so excited that she was incoherent, and said gently, "What a coincidence, I happen to be the one who is not in the category of 'Almost Impossible'."

He gently stretched out his palm and stopped it an inch above the broken left knee of Kularis. As the divine power in his body surged, countless pale golden threads of light extended from his palm and slowly attached to the necrotic skin.

The next second, under the shocked gaze of the two Samir girls, a miracle happened.

The charred and mottled dead skin peeled off like withered leaves, and the golden light condensed into new flesh and blood, growing downwards along the broken part below the knee little by little until it condensed into slender calves and small feet.

When the light faded, revealing the smooth and delicate skin underneath, Kularis's delicate body trembled slightly. She covered her mouth with one hand and supported the left half of her body with the other. She tried hard to recall the feeling below her left knee and gently reached her toes to the ground.

The moment my toes touched the ground, the solid touch quickly bounced back to my mind like an electric current.

The girl was stunned for a moment, then burst into tears.

It turns out that the ground can be so warm?
Lucia slipped out of the tent immediately. The remaining three looked at each other, and Adam hurriedly left the bag of snacks behind and ran out too.

Polyreus was puzzled and asked: "Your Majesty, those two children have received such great kindness from you, why didn't you even give them a chance to thank you?"

"Compared to this, I just want to leave time for them now," Lucia shook her head, "Besides, they never owe us anything. Instead, it is us - this era that owes them too much. Today is just a small compensation."

"We can't stay here for long. Go inform General Neo that the army should immediately break camp and rush back to the frozen lake. Also, summon all the senior officers in the army to discuss the next phase of strategy while on the march."
