In Another World I Become a Healer With Purple Hair-Chapter 160 - 160 Finding allies

160 Finding allies

“Captain Brom, you may visit miss Anne now,”

A healer called for Brom as he was waiting outside the tent, waiting for permission to get inside Anne’s tent. He said his gratitude to the healer and walked into the isolated tent in the back. When he opened the tent, Anne was sitting on her bed with a book in her hand.

“Hey, how are you feeling?” Asked Brom to his friend, the two of them becoming such best friends in the past two years. They’re bonding with the certain facts of an insidious personality haunting them both, their own share secret.

“Feeling weak, but thankfully nothing more. I don’t think I got infected.” She smiled at Brom, but immediately added, “Keep your mask on, just in case.”

“Hopefully, your blood could become the answer for a cure,” Brom said to her while sitting on a chair beside the patient’s bed. “Have you eaten anything yet?”

Anne shakes her head. “No, I don’t have an appetite.”

“You know, I rarely saw you eating nowadays. When we met, there was only me and Darla who were eating and you just stare at us and smiled.” Teased Brom to Anne, although there was a deeper meaning in it.

Anne gave him a bittered smile and asked for one of the bread, she hate to make his best friend worried. Brom stared at Anne while she munched on the bread. She didn’t lay. Anne hardly had any appetite, and it was already taking a toll on her health.

“So, our suspicion was right. I get the nightmare again.” Said Brom, while he let out a sigh. “What did she really want from me? I just saw her once, and the nightmare getting frequent, not to mention she kept visiting you for no apparent reason.

.....

“Yeah, it was disturbing nonetheless…” Anne said while she was shivering, remembering her once more, “She… she was worried about me, and even gave me some ridiculous advise.”

“Worried? Well, that was new.” Scoffed Brom. f𝓇𝘦e𝑤𝘦𝚋𝒏૦ѵℯ𝒍.c𝐨𝒎

“Tell me about it. I almost choke on my drink when she appeared and asked about my well-being.” Chuckles Anne while Brom shakes his head. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

“Well, as for me, this time she was waiting for me in some kind of valley.” Said, Brom. He closed his eyes, trying to remember the details. “Would you believe me If I said that it was a peaceful dream, where she didn’t even look mad and tried to kill me?”

“How strange, so it wasn’t a nightmare this time?”

“Oh, believe me, for me it was still a nightmare.” Brom shook his head while he chuckles at her, “I never had a good feeling if it’s about her.” Muttered Brom.

“You’re right, I felt it too… She… She was terrifying in her own way.” Anne agrees with Brom’s remark.

“Let’s compare our notes. Probably there was more connection this time.” Brom handed her a small leather-bound book. This is their secret book note. Brom suggesting about this one year ago, and they tried to investigate why the witch of the mountain keep haunting both of them.

While they discussed the new entry on their secret note, another man was hearing everything from outside. Henry was listening while he rested on one of the trees. He also wrote a note. Sabrina suddenly appears from his shadow, the red cardinal flying around him, trying to be a nuisance.

‘Eavesdropping? How gentlemanly are you, master?’

Henry was glaring at her. He whispered to his cheeky familiar, “Shut up, Sabrina, what are you doing here?”

‘Oh, come on, I was bored. You never called out for me, even when you were fighting those monsters!’

“You know I can’t. Using my knight power already exhausted my magica, let alone calling your true power.” He said to Sabrina in a soft voice, “Sometimes I wonder, why did you want me as your master?”

‘Why not? Henry, you’re strong, you just don’t realize your own potential.’ Sabrina tried to encourage her master. ‘As soon as I saw you, I knew that you’re the one.’

“I thought you courting me for my good looks?” Teased Henry to the little red cardinal, who is now perched on his finger.

‘Well, that too.’ Giggled Sabrina. ‘Joke aside, master, please use me when you’re in need of my power. I will do as best as I could not to make you suffer the withdrawal again.’

“Sabrina, remembered, never revealed this to my friends, alright?” He looks at Sabrina, who went quiet, “Please, I will be more careful, so no more withdrawal.”

‘Fine, but one more piece of news about your depleted magica, I will go straight to the crown prince or that beloved girl of yours who was talking with a strange man inside that tent.’ Sabrina berated her master while looking like a cardinal chirping loudly at Henry.

“Strange men? What do you mean by strange men?” Asked Henry, to his familiar.

“Lord Henry?” A voice came from the ground, distraught Henry, he looks below and Saw Brom looking at him. “Sorry to have kept you waiting. Let’s go. We could discuss this while I eat some breakfast.”

“Wait, you know that I was here? The whole time?!” Henry went down from the tree looking so surprised that Brom actually noticed his whereabouts.

Brom’s hand waving around. A mist appeared and disperse immediately. “Misty protection. This spell will keep an enemy from losing their way when they wanted to go inside the tent. So I always know what happened from inside and out.”

“Wait, how come I don’t get lost?” Asked Henry, baffled by Brom’s spell.

“Well, because you’re not an enemy, just a man that needs to have some answers,” Said Brom, smiling at him, “Shall we?”

“Right, we shall then. I know the way to the canteen,” Henry tells Brom. While Sabrina still lingered on his shoulder, looking curiously at Brom.

“Wait, for now, probably a private place like a crown prince’s tent would be a good idea to eat some breakfast while discussing our problems.” He stop for a moment, and turned to his right side, “Am I right? Ageha?”

A beautiful butterfly suddenly appears in front of Henry and Brom. ‘Ah, you saw me.’

“Ageha?! So Brom never trusted me, after all!” Gruntled Henry.

‘It was the other way around, lord Henry, but I guess captain Brom trusted your friends more than you do.’

“It never was a good look if you go with this sass around, Ageha. Leave it to my familiar here.” Replied Henry to Xavier’s familiar.

Brom yawned when they saw their interaction, he walk slowly, leaving them behind, for Brom, this is another plan that he and Anne were concocted, they need their power and resource and hoping by making the four of them new allies, they will have more answered about their weird and terrifying phenomenon.
