My Magical System

Chapter 217: Savior

“.....”

Eman scanned his surroundings and saw the bewildered group.

Some exhausted guards were staring at him with unblinking eyes. Two of them were gravely wounded and there was one that was seemingly dead, lying on the ground without a twitch a few steps away from him.

Zennie and the others were stunned for a moment. They looked at him with widened eyes. When they noticed no hostility from him, they finally realized that he saved them.

Zennie opened her mouth to ask him, but before it happened, the lying person, who Eman initially thought was dead, suddenly coughed.

(GAHA! GAHA!)

“I-I’m alive?” Said Rossbert in surprise.

.....

The coughing noises dispel all the bewilderments in the surrounding. Their attention was snatched by it.

“Mr. Rossbert!”

They shouted. Zennie, who just happened to awaken from her stupor, hastily ran to Rossbert’s side. While examining his condition, her attendant also arrived beside her. Their faces instantly turned pale the second they noticed his injuries.

“Oh no, Mr. Rossbert you’re badly injured!”

Zennie exclaimed in distraught. It wasn’t often that she could have a glimpse of such injuries. That’s why, after witnessing it, it terrified her.

Unfortunately, none of them was able to prepare some healing elixirs that would be enough to heal his injury. They have, but the elixirs in their position aren’t at a tier that could be enough to heal such large wounds and broken bones.

“Ugh! I-I am- I am fine...” Rossbert said but it was apparent on his face that he was enduring the pain. So no one believed that he was fine in his condition.

Regardless, Zennie still produced the elixir. She took it from the spatial ring that was on her finger. Then she assisted Rossbert to have a drink on it. However, just as she suspected, the elixir she had wasn’t enough to heal his injuries. It only clotted some minor wounds but not bigger wounds and the broken bones.

“Miss Liz!” She called her attendant, seeking advice.

With a disgruntled face, her servant shook her head as a reply, indicating that she had nothing that could help.

Before Zennie could start to panic, “here, use it,” she heard a calm voice from her side. When she glanced, she saw that person standing. The red sword wasn’t in his hand anymore. But in it was a bottle. He was handing her a bottle.

Looking at the vibrant color of the liquid in it, she could tell that it was a high-tier elixir.

Zennie was skeptical about taking it as this type of elixir was too expensive. No sane person would give it for free. Even her servant was looking at Eman with doubt.

Seeing that the person was doubting him, “don’t worry, you can pay me later on,” he said in his usual tone devoid of emotion.

Since that was the case, after hearing him, “I-I see,” she said as she snapped the elixir from his hand. Then assisted Rossbert again.

(GAHA! GAHA!)

Rossbert coughed again. But this time, all his injuries visibly healed. The elixir immediately took effect the second after he took it. It indicates that the quality of that elixir was so high.

“Uhm, what is your name?” When Rossbert finally healed. Zennie was finally able to ask the kind stranger.

“Eman.”

He just simply gave his name.

“E-Eman?” She repeated.

He nodded at her.

With a resolute expression, “Uhm, Mr. Eman, thank you for saving us, and thank you for lending us the elixir!” Zennie slightly bowed her head towards him.

At her lead, everyone also said their thanks to him.

“We are grateful. Thank you very much!” They also bowed their heads towards him.

After coming in front of her, Eman was finally certain that she was a noble. He was quite surprised though. It was rare to see a noble bow their heads to a stranger even if that stranger saved their lives. After living here for several months, Eman witnessed that most of the nobles said their thanks through rewards instead of bowing their heads to convey their gratitude.

It was the first time for him to witness it.

Although he seemed pleased, his expression did not change. He was still wearing a nonchalant face.

“Don’t mind it. It just so happened that we’re passing by. And so happened that I have extra elixir with me.”

Just then, they noticed a carriage coming closer at them.

“Brother!”

Then they saw a young girl jump off of it. She ran towards her brother’s side.

Eman briefly rubbed Eina’s hair when she arrived beside him.

Looking at Eman’s figure, they noticed that he was young himself. Later, they learned that he was actually an academy student which is not surprising based on his stature. However, killing those beasts in an instant was just out of the question.

No normal academy-level student could do it with ease. Perhaps, most of them would be crying and peeing their pants if facing those monsters in such a situation. Probably they would run away without looking back. But this young man in front of them easily handled those beasts, even cutting in half the bigger one which is much stronger than the smaller ones.

Just what his background is? Everyone had the same thoughts, wondering about his identity.

“Hey, kid, thanks for the save. Ah! I thought I was a goner! Haha!”

While everyone fell silent when they heard that he was truly an academy student, Rossbert found a chance to express his gratitude.

The corner of Eman’s mouth extended to both sides while replying with a nod. “Mr. Knight must also take the credit for saving everyone even to the point of endangering your own life.”

Upon hearing his reply, everyone realized the weight of his words.

“Right! We’re also grateful to you Mr. Rossbert!” At Zennie’s lead, everyone also followed in saying their thanks.

“Thanks, Mr. Rossbert! You’re the best guardian ever!”

Upon hearing the word guardian, Eman narrowed his eyes.

“Uh, this is embarrassing...” he said while rubbing the back of his head. “Everyone, don’t mind it. I’m just doing my job!” He said as he pumped his fist on his chest.

“Regardless, kid. Rossbert, just call me Rossbert from now on!” Rossbert extended a hand towards him.

“Oh, just call me Eman then.”

The two shook their hands.

For some reason, after Eman and Rossbert shook their hands, Zennie also stepped in front of him while fidgeting. “J-Just calls me Z-Zennie,” she said like a little girl as she extended her slender white arms at him, presenting her hand for a handshake.

Looking at her, Eman noticed that she looked young herself, and beautiful at that.

When their hands touched each other, he noticed the other party space out for a moment. Her servant beside her had to voluntarily cough to bring her back to reality.

“Uh, s-sorry!” She clumsily said sorry when she noticed that she was still gripping his hand.

Eman smiled slightly and nodded. “Pft! Don’t mind it.”

After their introduction and getting to know each other, he presented another two elixirs for the two wounded guards. Zennie promised him that she would pay him later. He nodded.

But there was a big problem. The guard leader reported that the carriage broke. The wheels are not functioning.
