"If you practice magical powers and need a mentor, I can be your mentor. I have considerable experience in the world of magic and can help you develop your magical abilities. With the support of a mentor, you will be able to improve your magical skills more effectively. If interested, let's start this journey together!" said Theo enthusiastically.
I smiled and said, "Thank you, Theo. But unfortunately, I don't have any magical powers."
Suddenly, Theo was surprised, "Really? Then why did you suffer internal injuries? That wasn't from training?"
I nodded and explained, "No, this wound wasn't from practicing magic. It happened because of a magic attack. A wild bat that had magical powers attacked and hit me. After that incident, I felt fine, but I couldn't take it. Hahaha ....thank you for helping me, Theo."
"Hah, thank goodness I found you sooner. Lily was very sad after finding out that you were unconscious. Moreover, you have been there for three days now. Lily must be very happy to see your condition improving now," said Theo with a relieved smile.
"Hahaha....very funny! Why worry about me? I don't think it's necessary! I'm just burdening her life. So there's no need to worry," I said, remembering the feelings of uselessness and anxiety I'd felt all this time.
Theo nodded with understanding. "Moon, maybe we can meet in the real world. That is, if you want?"
"Eh! Yes, if, of course. I would happily meet you in the real world," I answered enthusiastically.
Suddenly, someone entered the treatment room, and she looked out of breath. That person was Lily, who came with a face full of hope. Lily was seen with a face full of hope when she entered the treatment room. Lily approached me with quick steps and a warm hug.
"Moon, I'm really worried about you. You've been unconscious for three days, and I miss you. What happened to you?" Lily said as she let go of the hug.
"No need to worry, Lily. I'm starting to get better now. I'll recover completely soon," I answered with a gentle smile.
"Theo, thank you for helping and looking after Moon here," said Lily gratefully to Theo.
Theo smiled, "No problem, I'm happy to help. Because we are all friends and care about each other. Grey is outside, right?"
Suddenly, Lily and I were shocked. Lily smiled and answered, "Yes, Theo. Grey is outside. Sorry, Moon, I asked him to come in here, but he refused."
"It's okay, Lily. I don't need many people here. Theo alone is enough help. I prefer a little privacy right now," I answered warmly. I would hate that man if he were here. He would say I was just a burden to him and Lily.
"Okay," said Theo, immediately getting up from his seat, "Moon, I'll excuse myself. I hope you fully recover soon. I have to finish my assignment before the time runs out. See you!"
"Theo, thank you for all your help. I appreciate it," I said sincerely.
Theo began to walk out of the treatment room carefully. He closed the door again and saw Grey, waiting with a worried look, outside the room.
"Grey, are you okay?" Theo asked worriedly to Grey, who was waiting outside.
"None of your business! Go away and leave me," replied Grey in a sharp tone.
"Wow, you look annoyed and angry at me! Or at the girl in there?" Theo said, smiling faintly.
"Don't compare me to you. I don't have time to play with you!" Grey said in an angry tone.
"Hahaha...very funny! You're angry that Lily is friends with Moon, right? A girl who doesn't have magical abilities will only be a burden. But it would be stupid to hate such a good girl, especially Moon," said Theo, laughing sarcastically.
Grey was cold, not reacting to anything. Grey made it seem as if nothing had happened.
"Being cold like that only shows you as the leader of a wolf pack who can't see the good in people. If I were you, I would be grateful to Moon. You know, I was also there at that time. My pack and I protected the weak and injured and were trapped by the magical wild bats. I saw that the girl had protected Lily. But you responded to Moon with hatred and a cold attitude. You made Lily keep her distance from Moon," said Theo in an annoyed tone.
"None of your business! Go away and leave me. Mind your problems, head vampire!" Grey said harshly, showing deep hatred.
"Hahaha... yes, that's the new leader of the wolf group. A frigid man, ruthless. But unfortunately, the leader of the wolf group's eyes are blind!" Theo said mockingly with a sinister smile. "Moon is a girl who doesn't have magical abilities, and Lily is a girl who has magical abilities when magical wild bats attack them. Who protected? Moon! Hahaha...what a cold man. How could Moon possibly protect Lily, who has magical abilities, while Moon doesn't have any abilities? Yes, of course, with her body! Isn't that obvious? Lily only suffered a small injury, and Moon had to endure internal injuries that could cost her life in an instant. Moon survived so that no one could see her death. Moon didn't want anyone to be sad. Even though he had no magical abilities, Moon sacrificed himself to protect Lily. A cold, ruthless, relentless man judged and looked with one eye, blaming Moon for not protecting Lily well. "Distancing Lily's friendship with Moon. Oh, is that an appropriate thing to do?" Theo explained, full of emotion and disappointment.
Grey was silent for a moment, contemplating Theo's words. He realized that his cold and unempathetic attitude had caused harm to the friendly relationship between Moon and Lily. Theo immediately left without waiting for Grey's response.
Meanwhile, Moon and Lily were in the treatment room. Lily sat by the bed, looking at Moon with regretful eyes.
"Moon, tell me if you still feel pain in your body!" said Lily in a worried tone.
"I'm fine, Lily. There's no need to worry. I think I can walk fine without anyone's help," Moon answered with a weak smile. "I just need to rest now to recover fully."
"That's right. I'll go and let you rest. Before I go, what do you want? I'll come to see you again. I have to bring something you like. What do you want?" Lily asked, understanding Moon's situation.
"No need to bring anything. I don't want anything now. Thank you for being a good friend and being here for me," Moon said sincerely.
Lily smiled, got up from her seat, and approached the door. In the silence created after Lily left, Moon reflected on everything that had happened.
