In Another World I Become a Healer With Purple Hair

223 The Night Battle (part 1)

Almost two days ago, when the reinforcement arrived on the island, everyone was preparing for this day. This is the day when they are finally going to attack the port. One thousand people, consisting of knights, huntsmen, mages, healers, and even magic knights, are ready into their position. Anne was in charge of one smaller unit to raise the healer’s tent and prepare the medications.

She looks so dissatisfied as the list of duties came upon her hand. Anne wanted to help in the front line, but there was nothing she can do anymore. She just took sighed and will do her best as usual. A hand softly held onto her back. She turned to see Darla smiling at her.

“Be careful, alright?” Said her best friend, while giving her a warm hug.

Anne couldn’t believe what she just heard. “Be careful? Darla, you’re going to battle, but I will be in the tent, praying for everyone. It should be me that said those words!”

“Hey, listen to me!” Darla held onto Anne’s shoulder. “Your duty isn’t less important to us. We could always count on every healer to give us the best care, and you are one of them.”

She knows that she could always count on her best friend to give her the confidence that she needs; they gave each other a warm embrace and separated into their own units. Anne goes with her fellow healers, and Darla took her place with the others to prepare for battle on the ground.

The knights landed first and then followed by the healers. Henry reach out to Anne and helped her to carry the supplies for the healer’s tent.

“I was anxious that we have to leave you alone. What if there’s an ambush?” He said to his beloved.

Anne smiles and holds his arm. “Don’t worry, we are protected.”

.....

They set up the camp when Vale and Xavier approached the two of them.

“Already set up? Need more help?” Asked Vale to Anne.

She looks around and shakes her head. “No, we are good here. Go to your position already. I’m good here.”

The three of them look at each other, and Vale was the first one who embraced her and whispered, “Take care of yourself, alright?”

“You too, be careful…” She wipes her tears and looks at the other two, “All of you, be safe.”

To her surprise, Xavier carry her in his arms and gave her a kiss, “Don’t worry my love, we are going to be safe.”

They can hear the army who were passing off the tent cheering and whistling, they laughed, even though Anne’s face was blushing. When Xavier released her, Henry came and cuddled her, giving a light kiss on her temple.

Justice was riding a horse when he saw everything. He didn’t stop and just looked at them from afar. There’s Heirim, Xander, and Arthur by his side.

“You don’t want to go to her first?” Asked Heirim to the crown prince.

He shakes his head, but a smile appears on his face. “Not right now. I need to focus. Looking at her face is enough.”

“Gosh, your majesty, you’re so awfully unromantic right now.” Muttered Xander, who is walking beside him.

Heirim turns her head to Xander, asking Xander a question with a frown on her face, “Unromantic? This is just him being reasonable.”

Xander look into the young woman, he never met her in person, only just from a story or rumor, about a noble lady who was obsessed with the crown prince, he shrugged his shoulder and chuckles, “No, you’re so wrong, I will have done it, differently.”

With a gasp, Heirim was glaring at the young man. She was thinking about this rude man who was now Bernard’s replacement. “Then let me ask you something. Just tell me how exactly your different approach was?”

“Easy, I will be running into her, touching her face, looking into her eyes, and giving her the kiss that she could ever forget and blow her mind,” Xander said to her with a winked and a naughty smirk towards Heirim. The young werewolf just makes Heirim speechless. She just scoffed at him and fasten her pace. Xander looks into Arthur and Justice. “What have I done?”

“Well, you’re just giving her a blush, something that I have never seen on Heirim.” Said Justice, totally amused by their interaction.

Xander’s mouth went agape, “Wait, don’t tell me she never experience any romance before?”

“Well, you already know that she was obsessed with him that thankfully she was,” Said Arthur, pointing at Justice. He then added, “Don’t you think that she would have a proper romance before? I mean, the lady just move on quite recently.”

“Shut up! She… she really was gullible about romance, then?” Muttered Xander, while his eyes stared at Heirim, who was already further away from the three of them.

“How about you gave her a proper romance then? I’ve heard from Xavier that you’re quite a player.” Said Justice, while chuckling.

He laughed at the confirmation. “No, he was lying, well, a bit.”

“Although Heirim was going through something right now, so, I don’t think romance will be in her priorities.” Said Justice, while exchanging a look with Arthur.

The words just intrigued Xander more, as for the lady who before just one part of a rumor and a story, who’s now visible to him, a beautiful, noble lady, that is now making him so curious. They continued on to their position, with Xander’s hoping to see Heirim again.

Justice came forward to meet with his father and brother. They will be taking the center formation, hoping to see Javier. They were standing on the hill overlooking the port. Magi’s cloak gave them protection from being seen by the guards on the port.

Everyone is nervous. During a night-time raid will have its own advantages and also disadvantages. For one, much more magica to use, to disguise everyone, but with this, they could launch a sneak attack. When the three of them looked around, the troops were ready, and they knew the time has come.

“Father,” Justice said to King Edward.

He looks so determined. His two sons were beside him, although thinking about Javier, hoping that he was wrong about the accusation. He took a deep breath and finally said, “It’s time.”

The night raid finally commence.
