Chapter 30: Thank You
"You!" Leo found it hard to accept Oliver's words.
At the same time, Oliver grabbed Kim Hana's wrist, holding it firmly so that she couldn't let go.
"Let's go," he said to the woman.
He turned around and stepped up to pull her along.
Kim Hana was also cooperative because she really only wanted to be with him.
She followed him as he stepped up.
She was actually quite in need of treatment as there were several wounds on her body. Although they are not large, it is still dangerous to wander around in such conditions.
Oliver pulled her to the abandoned village, perhaps he could find a clean cloth that could be used to cover the woman's wounds.
Leo could only watch as they left leaving him alone.
He was naturally upset, feeling inferior to a boy practically far below his age.
The Korean woman was apparently more comfortable with the young man than with him.
The more he thought about it, the more unacceptable he felt.
Shua!
He stopped the vortex in the river so that the Lamia in the river were finally freed.
The petty side of him urged him to take revenge, so he did just that.
Relying on his jump, he went to the top of a fairly tall tree.
When the Lamia realized there were two other humans closer, their attention was immediately drawn to them.
Unlike Dragozilla and Cyclops, they did not roar, only making a screech-like sound as they moved towards Oliver and Kim Hana.
The latter became worried while Oliver knitted his brows while glancing at Leo's figure above the tree.
In response, he pointed his hand at the river.
His water power allowed him to release a large amount of water, but if there was already water around him, he could control it with a larger amount.
When his hand was aimed at the river, the water in the river over a large area was suddenly lifted into the air along with those Lamia moving in the water, leaving the river dry. It had to wait for the water upstream and downstream to descend into the empty area before it would fill up again.
Only, that obviously took time.
Right now, the water controlled by Oliver was flying higher, forming a ball of water.
The water inside the water ball rotated endlessly so that the Lamia inside couldn't get out.
Leo who thought his water skill was one of the best was dumbfounded by the sight, wondering if he was seeing the real thing.
Shua!
Oliver then waved his hand, dropping the water ball into the area where Leo was.
"Nooooo..." The man realized he was in serious trouble.
Unfortunately, there was no time for him to dodge.
He was hit by the water ball, drowned in it and then attacked by the Lamia as it flowed back into the river.
Kim Hana couldn't help but marvel at the sight, wondering just how far Oliver had come. How his strength had reached this point only a short time after they parted ways.
While she was still confused, Oliver pulled her back to the village.
She quickly came to her senses but became even more mesmerized when she saw him.
So handsome and so strong, it was only when this young man helped her that her heart pounded non-stop.
They arrived at the village and Oliver chose the biggest and nicest house.
It was still standing firmly despite having been abandoned, only the lock on the door had been broken so it only took a small push to open the door.
When the door opened, he found a messy living room.
This was due to the many items that had been left behind, or the tables and chairs that were placed irregularly.
Here, he found quite a few used clothes, which still looked good.
"Sit down!" Oliver took the chair closest to him, asking the woman to sit down.
Here, she could only obey, sitting as he asked.
"Mm..." Oliver, who originally wanted to pick up clothes to use the cloth, did not do so because he saw a sizable first aid box.
Quickly, he picked it up and opened it only to find bandages, alcohol, antiseptic, and the like.
It turned out to still contain medicinal items.
They were naturally better.
Carrying the first aid box, Oliver approached Kim Hana again who just watched him silently.
He knelt down in front of her and picked up the bottle of alcohol and opened it.
"This may hurt a little, but it will make your wounds heal faster," he told her, then spilled the alcohol on the wounds on her hands and feet.
Despite being young, he had enough experience in treating wounds like this.
"Uhmm..." Kim Hana's eyes widened and trembled as her wounds came into contact with the alcohol.
She felt like screaming but she was probably embarrassed, so she pressed her lips together instead.
Fortunately, the stinging sensation from the alcohol was short-lived.
She felt comfortable once Oliver applied antiseptic to her wounds.
After that, he began to cover the wounds with bandages.
Treated like this, her mind could not help but drift elsewhere as she looked at his face.
Even her ideology seemed to shatter suddenly, making her want to give herself to him in gratitude.
This is when one cannot escape the charm of a man. When she gets a little favor from him, she feels he is everything.
"It's done!" Oliver stood up, tidying up the first aid box before closing it again.
"Thank you!" said Kim Hana in a low voice, unable to help but say it.
Besides it was her heart's desire, from any culture it would be rude not to say thank you after being helped like that.
Oliver nodded lightly in response as he said, "Just keep sitting there until you're fully recovered. I won't go far just around this river."
After saying that, he stepped out of the house.
Kim Hana watched him as he left, and was somewhat disappointed.
She felt better when he stayed by her side.
It wasn't that Oliver didn't want to accompany her, but he needed to see the Lamia on the river.
