Fake Princess
Clxxvi Chapter
The drums of the end of the first day's war rumbled, my eyes staring at the sky that was about to dim. I still stared at some of the enemy troops who were standing down with their arms covering their faces.
I turned my gaze to our troops staggering closer, some of them shoulder to shoulder with the wounded...
I thrust my feet towards them, I stopped my steps in front of the horse Izumi was riding. Walking I stepped beside his horse as I stared at Zeki who was leaning on Izumi's back with both eyes closed.
"She's fine" he said, turning towards Izumi who was also looking at me.
"When I have cried out for joy to marry you Princess if she ends up here" said Aydin, turning my gaze to her as her horse approached.
"Shut your mouth, damn it! I'm still not dead" he said, turning to Zeki who was also staring at me.
"Are you okay?" I said as I grabbed him and held his palm.
"I'm fine," she replied to me.
"Sa-chan, she needs to be treated right away. Ride on!" there was a cry from Haruki, turning towards him who was riding his horse towards me at high speed.
Looking back I looked at Zeki, nodding slowly he looked at me. I let go of my hand to her as I walked closer to Haruki.
His palm curled up while I sat behind him. Haruki moved his horse back up the hill, let me look around...
Seen as some men bowed crying over the corpse of his friend lying before them, some of the Knights even tied a long cloth to one of the truncated arms of the pedestrian army. I stared at the white cloth that was gradually reddened by the blood that came out...
Looking at me to the left side, I turned my gaze to a middle-aged man who was wrapping a cloth around the head of the fellow sitting beside him...
"Don't blame yourself, if it's not for the direction you gave... Maybe the dead and the wounded, more than we're going through right now..."
"I will try not to let our troops die" I said cutting Haruki's words with a trembling voice.
"That will not be possible, death will be inevitable in war, Sa-chan. Perhaps he could defeat the enemy he was facing, but not necessarily he could defeat his upcoming enemy... Because that's the war, because that's the meaning of defending the Kingdom's pride" Haruki continued.
I felt the footsteps of his horse stalled, my palms clasped his sleeves as I moved my body back down the horse he was riding.
Turning around I looked at Izumi and Adinata who were riding their horses side by side, I let my body walk out of the cloth that covered the tent...
I stared at Zeki who was staggered by Adinata, walking the two of them into the tent. Come inside the tent and let go of my hand on the cloth...
I ran to get a piece of cloth and spread it on the grass in the tent, stepping Adinata and Zeki towards me while moving Zeki sat on the cloth...
"You want me to help you?" adinata said, turning her head while I shook my head to answer her words.
I walked up to Zeki while sitting in front of him. I thrust my trembling fingers into the collar of the clothes he was wearing, as I moved closer to him...
"Then I will go out" said Adinata, nodding, I answered her words without looking at her.
I put my arm around his shoulder and put my fingers off the armor he was wearing. I put his armour to the side while moving back I took off the other part of his armor...
Sitting in front of him, I lifted my fingers off the buttons attached to the clothes he was wearing. Her clothes slowly fell off her body...
I moved as I moved back to my feet near the box of my medicines, and I took a bottle made of my animal skin and two clean sheets not too far from it...
Back I stepped closer to Zeki as I sat behind him, I stared at his blood-soaked back... Even the burns on his back were covered with blood...
I opened the bottle of drinking water earlier while I poured the water in it little by little onto a piece of cloth that I held, I slowly swept the wet cloth around the wound on his gaping back... Sometimes his body jerked slowly when my hand accidentally touched the wound on his back...
"You should have avoided it, you were so stupid that you let the man hurt you like this" I said in a trembling voice, holding up one of my hands to support my trembling hand rubbing Zeki's back.
"I purposely lured him you know, because I also watched him from afar like he was watching me. How do I say it, like a wild animal fishing other wild animals with the strength he has," he said who was still downcast.
"And you want to say that getting you hurt is one of your plans?"
"I admit to the mistake I made this time, I was too busy massacring the enemy before me until I was a little late for it... You know, dodging the attack," he said again, raising his bowed head to the front.
"Do you know what I felt when the man slashed your back? You almost scared me to death," I said in a trembling voice, my head leaning against his shoulder as I was bitten by the strong of my lips that were also shaking. The smell of blood still stuck in my nose.
"Sorry, for making you worry about me" she replied softly to me.
