Chapter 1868: Chapter 565: Healing_3

Camilla didn’t have much to say, so she obediently lay down.

For dealing with this level of injury, potions were useless. Tracy Garcia had to take out sealing scrolls, trying to slowly extract the divine contamination.

At the same time, she had already seen through the condition of the wound and said: "It’s really dangerous. The assassin wasn’t trying to kill you, but to contaminate the Divine Descent. Elemental Sovereign Lagros wanted to use you as a vessel. Thankfully it didn’t hit your heart, or it would’ve been much more troublesome."

Leonard Churchill wasn’t too surprised upon hearing this.

He had suspected this earlier.

With the Holy Grail protecting Camilla, the chances of killing her were very low. Contamination control seemed like a more certain method.

...

Camilla didn’t say a word.

Assassination attempts inherently come with risks.

All three of them understood this.

And they all could accept the consequences.

Still, comradeship prevailed, and Tracy Garcia couldn’t help but grumble: "Sister Camilla, you really don’t take care of yourself...."

...

The treatment wasn’t hidden from Leonard Churchill in the tent, but he didn’t look too much.

Hearing what Tracy Garcia said, he suddenly thought of something and asked: "By the way, what’s the deal with that dagger?"

Tracy Garcia obviously knew its origin and said: "This should be the dagger Tirfeng ..."

Saying this, she took out the dagger covered with seals.

Leonard Churchill was familiar with the name and asked: "What’s the relationship between this dagger and the magic sword Tirfeng?"

Tracy Garcia replied: "They were made from the same ore. Back in the Taren Empire’s treasury, there was a piece of Godfall Black Iron, reportedly obtained from a mythic battlefield. Emperor Crossa (Mad King) ordered the Divine Craftsman of the Lava Dwarves to forge the Godslayer Demon Sword Tirfeng. After it was forged, there was a bit left, which was made into a dagger. This magical iron is said to be Cursed Gold from a fallen god, possessing the properties of ’inevitable cause and effect’, ’breaking divine domains and slaying gods’, and ’wounds that do not heal’... it also contaminates the mind."

When the Taren Empire was established, to prevent excess concentration of power, many positions were set up to counterbalance each other.

So the High Priest didn’t know everything.

She then added: "But no one knew the whereabouts of the dagger. It looks like it has always been in the hands of the Emperor’s Shadow."

...

Leonard Churchill revealed a look of realization as he listened to this explanation.

He understood why he had never heard of such a powerful weapon before.

Because he had seen Reuel Bible use it before, this magical gold dagger required Divine Blood to activate.

And the price for the user was significant.

At least, the Emperor’s Shadow was now half-dead.

Half of it was due to Leonard Churchill’s beating, and half was the backlash.

...

Leonard Churchill played with the dagger, its red glow having faded, and soon lost interest.

With the divinity gone, it was just like the Useless Great Sword from before, just a piece of sturdy magical iron.

When the dagger was mentioned, Tracy Garcia followed up with an introduction about the origins of the Black Blade Organization.

Occasionally asking Camilla, who would share some royal secrets.

Leonard Churchill listened with great interest.

He had to admit, the heritage of the Orlan Royal Court was indisputable.

The Taren Empire had left too much inheritance for this favored son.

Two hundred years ago, if it hadn’t been for the direct involvement of the Illumination Secret Society in the battle, the Federal Legion might not have won.

In the tent, the three of them chatted casually, just like on ordinary days.

Camilla’s injuries would have killed any other Eighth Rank warrior a hundred times over.

Thanks to the Holy Grail protection, she was in no life-threatening danger.

But the treatment was truly troublesome.

Divine contamination can’t be healed by mortal bodies; Leonard Churchill himself had taken nearly half a month of Tracy Garcia’s time to handle the Silver Moon Divine Power contamination.

The dagger’s wound that wouldn’t heal was also extremely tricky.

Camilla’s injuries were much more severe than Leonard Churchill’s previous ones.

Given the current situation, with the Orlan Royal Court’s millions of soldiers gathering nearby, these injuries posed a potential risk if left untreated.

Tracy Garcia patiently treated the wound, but couldn’t help but complain: "Ah... why does Lagros’s divine power have so many miscellaneous elemental contaminations? At this pace, it’ll take a month to deal with. Sister Camilla, if you had told me earlier, it would have been much easier."

...

Despite her cold and proud demeanor in front of others as King of Augustus, Camilla was totally submissive before her close friends.

Leonard Churchill found this amusing.

The contrast between these two women’s public personas and their current behavior was quite stark.

Just as he was thinking, Tracy Garcia seemed to think of a good idea and asked: "Hey Leonard, doesn’t your Myriad Manifestations True Solution happen to break down elemental contamination?"

It wasn’t really a question, as she didn’t expect Leonard Churchill to refuse.

Saying this, the bun-haired Miss suddenly asked Camilla: "Sister Camilla, how about letting him help out? It would speed things up a lot."

Leonard Churchill raised an eyebrow at this suggestion.

He was so well acquainted with the bun-haired Miss that she wouldn’t hold back.

He wasn’t sure if she wanted to laze off or mess with Camilla, but she said it anyway.

The tent fell silent for a moment, but Camilla calmly responded: "Alright. Leonard, sorry to trouble you."

Hearing this, Tracy Garcia turned her head to call out to Leonard Churchill, who was flipping through books, her eyes flashing with a mischievous glint.

Leonard Churchill smiled helplessly.

Since Camilla had spoken, he didn’t hesitate and walked over.

The three of them weren’t too particular about such things.

Having lived together for so long, they’d seen their fair share of each other.

Even when Tracy Garcia was helping Leonard Churchill suppress his Witch Mutation, they were up front about it. Camilla didn’t mind, and neither did Leonard Churchill or Tracy Garcia.

Leonard Churchill walked over and immediately saw Camilla’s shirt open, revealing the wound at her chest bone.

Camilla’s skin was exceptionally fair; her chest wasn’t very prominent, lying flat, only gently rising and falling.

Though most of her chest was exposed, the vital parts were still covered with clothes.

Leonard Churchill didn’t deliberately avoid looking, observing as he should.

Seeing his scrutinizing gaze fall on her chest, Camilla showed no change in expression.

Leonard Churchill took a glance and then walked to the other side of the bed to seriously help Tracy Garcia treat the wound.

The bun-haired Miss was a professional doctor, not just making idle talk.

Camilla’s injuries were indeed very troublesome.

Elemental Sovereign Lagros’s divinity was mixed with a large amount of high-level elemental law contamination—earth, wind, water, fire, metal, wood... almost all of them.

Camilla’s Extreme Cold Law was resisting and being contaminated at the same time.

Trying to deal with it was like removing one color from a palette where the colors had merged, picking them out one by one for targeted breakdown.

Just thinking about it gave one a headache.

Leonard Churchill’s ability to quickly break things down sped up the process significantly.

Despite the occasional hint of springtime charm, the atmosphere in the tent was as casual as it usually was among the three of them.

Leonard Churchill, remaining focused on the task at hand, didn’t shy away from the occasional accidental glimpse, appreciating it calmly.

Camilla seemed indifferent to it all.

The atmosphere was originally serene and harmonious.

But the bun-haired Miss found this serious atmosphere a bit dull.

Being the closest of comrades, their relationship had no boundaries.

Her eyes gleamed mischievously, and she suddenly asked: "Leonard, what do you think of Sister Camilla’s figure?"

...

Knowing she intended to cause trouble, Leonard Churchill didn’t engage.

Camilla remained silent as well: "..."

"Hahaha..."

Tracy Garcia seemed very interested in seeing Camilla walloped, gently poking her chest with a finger, "I’ve touched it, feels quite nice. Leonard, want to give it a try?"

Having unraveled much through intimacy with Leonard Churchill, the bun-haired Miss became very bold, speaking brazenly.

Her expression said, you’re familiar with mine, try this, it’s very different.

...

Camilla, of course, did not respond, but lying down, she couldn’t leave. So she closed her eyes, letting her be teased.
