69 Anxious in times of peace

Just like that, the confrontation ended in an anticlimax that left everyone even more confused than they were before.

Esdras wasn't that bothered since he wasn't very interested in what the higher-ups had in mind. At least it was over now.

And more importantly, he had other things to worry about.

Esdras watched over Celine in her sleep as she took one breath after another. He wanted to give her a health potion but she looked fine as if there was nothing wrong with her.

After helping the others, burying the dead, and cleaning some of the rubble and broken walls. He finally settle down.

Everyone started to return to their regular selves, but it was not something easy, especially for him. Although he was eating, he did not feel the test in the food.

He was constantly thinking about Celine, every few hours he would go and check up on her. Seeing as he couldn't stop himself or focus on anything he decided to move into a room so that he could check up on her at any time.
