"Where is Emiya Shirou now? Tell me! Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough!"
As if he was going to cough out his entire lung, Finn began to cough violently after the excitement.
During that expedition, Finn suffered enormous injuries and exhaustion.
He is still recovering from his injuries.
"Captain!"
Livilia beside him also looked at Finn with great concern. As the deputy leader, she was naturally very clear about Finn's current condition.
But even she was extremely excited to hear that Shirou Emiya was still alive.
"The current condition is not good. He may die at any time. We are here this time in the hope that [Nine Demon Princess] can go over and heal Shirou Emiya. The guild has dispatched all the personnel that can be dispatched and summoned all the healers with certain strength to go over!"
The guild member also looked at Livilia anxiously. After all, this was the main purpose of their visit.
"Is it that serious? Livilia!————"
Before Finn could say anything, he just called out Livilia's name and she easily understood what Finn wanted to express.
"I'll rush over as fast as I can!"
Livilia nodded quickly and signaled to the guild members not to waste time and lead the way immediately.
“We’re going too!!!”
Tiona, Aisi and the others who were outside the house also quickly came over.
"Even if we only went there to offer blessings to Shirou Emiya, we don't want to not even get a glimpse of our savior!"
"Well, take me with you too!"
Loki also appeared here at some point.
Perhaps it was because Shirou Emiya was near the central square around the Tower of Babel, or perhaps the lower-level adventurers were too surprised to learn that Shirou Emiya was still alive and kept passing the news on to each other.
In just a very short time, the news that Shirou Emiya returned alive to Orario spread throughout Orario.
No, it’s more because of Shirou Emiya’s legendary experience.
You have to know that under Finn's argument, the guild recorded that it was Shirou Emiya who explored the 59th floor, it was the expedition team who explored the 59th floor, and not Loki's family who explored the 59th floor.
After all, the entire 59th floor's monsters were dealt with by Shirou Emiya alone, and none of them could even intervene.
Finn therefore declined the honor.
Because of this, Shirou Emiya, who sacrificed himself to save the entire expedition team and was willing to beat up gods for the sake of low-level adventurers, once again set off an explosion throughout Orario.
They are even hailed as contemporary heroes.
After all, everything Shirou Emiya has done since he became an adventurer until now has been too shocking and too legendary.
However, he appeared on the street next to the central square, and naturally the news spread quickly to the people of Orario.
"Emiya?"
"Excuse me, could you please elaborate on the information you just got?"
Ryu, who was entertaining guests in the tavern, became extremely tough the moment he heard the news from Shirou Emiya. He quickly stood up and went to the guests' seats to inquire.
"Ha! How would I know where it is? Someone else told me about Emiya Shirou. If you turn on the news, you might be able to see Emiya Shirou in it!"
Those adventurers didn't care about a small tavern employee at all, and were not willing to seriously answer the questions raised by Liu.
However, the next second——
"boom--!"
A vibration sound came from the table in front of these adventurers.
"Gudu——!"
The sound of swallowing saliva seemed particularly special in the sudden silence.
At this moment, one can see a palm print appearing on the table in front of these adventurers.
The entire place was reduced to ashes under Ryu's blows.
"Speak or not, my patience has its limits!"
"Tell me! Tell me! That Emiya Shirou should be near the central square. Many people saw him walking out of the dungeon covered in blood!"
However, when they looked up, the waiter in front of them had disappeared.
After hearing the news, Hephaestus rushed there as quickly as possible.
Although she is not the god of Shirou Emiya, she is still the one who has been teaching Shirou Emiya how to forge. She is like a master to him. No matter what, she will go.
Hestia also rushed there in a hurry. Not to mention that Shirou Emiya was someone she knew, Bell was also seriously injured and fell to the ground. She rushed there with an extremely worried look.
As for Lily, after Hermes told her, she ran towards Emiya Shirou with extremely tired eyes and excitement on her face.
Chapter 509: Awakening
So dark——
So tired——
So far——
It's like sinking to the bottom of the sea.
Bell looked at the darkness before him, muttering something in his heart.
I really want to fall asleep like this.
Just fall asleep without any worries or troubles.
"Bell! Bell! Bell!"
Is there anyone calling me?
Who else will be calling out to me?
Bell, whose consciousness was gradually sinking, stretched out his hand slowly and weakly, looked at the endless darkness in front of him, and his eyes gradually closed.
"Bell!!!!"
The scream that was powerful enough to penetrate Bell's mind swept towards him at this moment.
He felt that his hand, which he stretched forward, was grabbed fiercely.
"ha--!!!!"
Like a drowning person suddenly breathing in fresh air, a long and violent gasp came out of Bell's throat.
He seemed to be frightened, his eyes wide open, and he suddenly sat up from the ground.
The sky was no longer as bright as when Bell set out. The clouds in the distance were almost all dyed a brilliant crimson.
The birds were also slowly flying towards the woods.
Dusk enveloped the entire maze city the moment Bell woke up.
"Wow, wow, wow!!! Bell! You're awake!!!!"
Excited crying sounds came from in front of Bell.
He felt the weight in front of him, and at first glance he saw a girl named Hestia, with deep tear marks on her face, lying on top of him.
“Lord God——!”
Bell weakly called out to the girl in front of him, a smile slowly forming on his lips.
"Stupid Bell! Stupid Bell! Do you know how worried I am about you? When I think that you might never wake up, my heart hurts like it's been broken!!!"
Looking at Bell who had regained consciousness, Hestia rushed forward, stretched out her arms and hugged Bell's neck, leaned on his shoulders, and cried loudly.
"It's okay, Lord God, I'm still here, right?"
Bell patted the back of the goddess Hestia gently as if he was comforting a child, and whispered soothing words in a weak voice.
Then, Hestia let Bell go and looked at him with an uncertain expression, sobbing softly.
Bell, on the other hand, smiled faintly, reached out his hand, and wiped away the tears from the corners of Hestia's eyes.
Looking at the bed sheet covering himself, Bell quickly realized that he was in the hospital in Orario.
Although there are therapists in Orario, it does not mean that all injuries and diseases in Orario need to be treated by therapists.
What's more, most of the people in Orario are ordinary residents. Although the therapists can heal injuries very quickly, the price is not something that ordinary people can afford.
Naturally, there are normal clinics and hospitals in Orario.
There are also healers who choose to give up exploring dungeons and concentrate on becoming a doctor.
These things all exist in Orario.
"Oh right! Lord God, where is the person who came out of the dungeon with me? How is he?!"
As if remembering something, Bell asked Hestia excitedly.
He desperately wanted to know what the person who left the dungeon with him and saved him was doing now.
You have to know that the severity of that person's injuries is several times more than your own. In his current situation, he has already walked around in front of the god of death, and only barely came back after being called by Hestia.
Bell couldn't imagine how the man was still alive with such injuries.
"Stupid Bell! You're still considering other people at this time! Do you know that you almost died?"
Hestia immediately spoke up to accuse Bell, saying that the first thing she did after waking up was not to care about her own injuries, but to care about the safety of others.
I didn't even say a word to show my concern for you.
Hestia pouted immediately.
But she only made a slight criticism and did not refuse to answer Bell's questions.
"You mean Emiya Shirou? He was not carried back to the hospital with you. Because of his injuries, any movement could cause secondary damage. So he should be receiving treatment now with the joint efforts of the doctors and therapists."
"But, I don't know what the result will be——"
Hestia lowered her head. In her heart, Bell was an extremely important person. When she first saw Bell was seriously injured, her heart was always on him and she had no intention of paying attention to other things.
When Hestia learned that the person next to Bell was Shirou Emiya, who had been judged to be dead, she was already in the hospital waiting for Bell to wake up.
"I want----!"
With that, Bell moved his weak body and fell hard to the ground before Hestia quickly reached out to stop him.
"Bell! What are you doing! Your body has just recovered and you can't do strenuous exercise now!!!"
Seeing Bell lying on the ground, Hestia hurriedly helped him up.
There was both worry and blame in his eyes.
She didn't understand why Bell suddenly wanted to get out of bed. Even if he received treatment with the healer's recovery magic, Bell couldn't recover immediately.
Still need time to recuperate.
"I want to go over there and meet the person who saved me. No matter what the outcome is, I want to witness it all with my own eyes!!!"
There was an unimaginable firmness in the weak tone. Hestia had never seen such firmness in Bell's eyes.
Even when he said that he wanted to be a hero, his eyes still revealed confusion as to whether he could become a hero.
He looked toward the window facing the street. Even though he had just recovered and his body was still in pain, Bell did not retreat at all.
And Hestia, who was looking at Bell, was deeply attracted to him at this moment.
Then he took a deep breath————
"I understand! I will take you there. Be careful and don't move around, or your injuries will relapse! Stupid Bell!"
Hestia scolded Bell while supporting him and heading towards the street where Emiya Shirou was.
At the same time, on the street where Shirou Emiya was, dozens of doctors and therapists stood beside Shirou Emiya, and the sweat on their foreheads dripped onto the ground like rain.
Also beside them, Livilia constructed a spell, closed her eyes, raised her wand, and let the magic circle rotate beneath her. At this moment, the sound of chanting could be heard from the street.
"Dance, spirit of the atmosphere, master of light. I have made a contract with the guardian spirit of the forest. I hope to play the song of the earth to envelope us and protect us - please turn into a giant wall of forest light to protect us - my name is Alf”
At this moment, a transparent light curtain rose up in front of everyone, protecting Shirou Emiya, doctors, therapists and some necessary equipment inside the barrier, and isolating everything else outside the barrier.
