Bolstering The Servant

Several minutes after Skullius watched Ferex in his new body dash towards the Temple of Unlusted Tears, the Apostle returned with Yuyui.

The poor girl couldn't walk steadily for some reason as with her movement came a weird limp.

Skullius couldn't see it, but she was roughed up quite a bit, her skin turned purple over several patches of her face with bruises and scrapes also noticeable on different parts of her body.

"Master, you called for me?" she said with a few rapid blinks.

"Why are you walking like that?" Skullius asked with a brow raised.

"Uhmm.... I—"

"The servant has a broken leg, Master," Ferex interrupted, sensing that Yuyui was about to lie to their Master. Or at the very least, was taking too long to answer.

Yuyui yelped.

She had found it surprising that Ferex could now talk but unfortunately, the communication barrier still existed between them as the Apostle could only speak in a language she had never heard.
