Chapter 35 35- Mouth-To-Mouth Healing Potion

Chapter 35- Mouth-to-Mouth Healing Potion

The moment Rin felt someone holding him and helping him rest, he quickly fell unconscious. Even though he didn't know who it was or whether it was actually Elise or not but he felt weirdly safe in this person's arms so his body automatically relaxed and he quickly drifted into a deep sleep.

Elise felt blood dripping on her clothes and sticking to her skin but she didn't care much about it. It wasn't disgusting at all for her especially when she knows it was the blood of a person she knows.

"RINNNN!!!" That's when Aria finally woke up from her trance and approached them quickly to check on her brother.

She felt her heart almost leap out of her chest when she saw the horrible state he was in. All kinds of things ran through her mind at that exact moment and rendered her paralyzed from sheer shock. The mere thought of her beloved dying horrified her to no extent. She simply can't imagine herself handling the pain of losing Rin at all.

"Don't scream… He is alive." Elise said with an annoyed look as she lifted Rin up and started carrying him toward the portal.

"H-He is going to die!!"

"Not if you stop crying and actually help me get him out of her as quickly as possible."

Realizing the big mistake Aria did, she quickly shook those thoughts away and supported Rin from the side. She could feel his cold body as blood kept seeping out of every injury on his body.

"Wait! I can at least make him drink a potion. I can't rest assured if he stays like this till we go back."

Elise glanced at Aria silently for a moment before replying.

"Fine. Do whatever you want."

The two then made him lie down on the floor gently. His breathing was faint and his expression seemed to be in great pain even though he was unconscious.

Then, Aria pulled a high-grade healing potion out of her pouch. She was glad she carried this with her in case of emergencies like this one. It was quite expensive so she made sure to not use it unless it was very important and urgent.

After that, she approached the bottle from his mouth and tried to pour it in. But, because of his state, the liquid merely fell down his chin and he barely swallowed anything.

"W-What can I do?" She muttered with a complicated gaze.

"Help him drink it."

"I'm asking how?!"

"There's only one way you can do that," Elise said meaningfully as she pointed at her mouth.

Elise quickly caught on to what she meant and looked at the bottle in her hand. She wasn't sure whether that will work or not but she had no choice but to try.

'Here goes nothing!' She thought before pouring the liquid into her mouth.

Forget about embarrassment, her mind didn't even process that she was about to kiss her brother at all. She was in no state to think about such trivial things. She can get all shy and happy later when Rin wakes up safe and sound.

Lifting his head up, Aria quickly put her lips against Rin's lips. Her eyes looked deeply at his bloody face before she pried his mouth open with her tongue.

Tasting the insides of his mouth made her flinch slightly. Because of the sheer blood he lost, his mouth tasted metallic and weird but she ignored that and focused on her task.

Slowly, she started guiding the liquid inside his mouth and then toward his throat. Luckily, the plan worked and Rin quickly started drinking the liquid.

Then, Aria took another gulp and did the same thing again and again until the bottle was emptied of every drop of liquid.

"Hah… Hah… I hope this works." She took slow but heavy breaths as she examined Rin carefully.

Kissing him multiple times made her gasp for air.

"He's starting to heal," Elise commented from the side.

'That was weirdly uncomfortable to watch.' She hid that thought with her cold expression.

Witnessing two people kissing no matter what situation it was was something embarrassing even for Elise. But, besides feeling out of place, her heart weirdly had another feeling she didn't get all. However, shaking her head, that feeling quickly dissipated.

As she was like that, Rin's body was surrounded by a faint, green aura as injuries on his body started healing at a visible speed.

Small and big cuts were closing up, his half-destroyed leg was also building flesh and his broken arm was twisting back to its normal shape.

However, even for a high-grade healing potion, its limits were noticeable, especially on injuries of this caliber. The huge cut on Rin's abdomen only closed up a little. It goes to show how horrible it was before.

"What kind of things… did he go through? I can only imagine how hard it was on Rin." Aria muttered with a huge frown.

Seeing her brother's state greatly pained her. She didn't like seeing him feel discomfort let alone suffer this horrible pain.

"This is a D-Rank dungeon. I can see why he suffered that much. But, for him to actually solo clear it… He is impressive." Elise didn't know whether to laugh or cry seeing such an absurd achievement.

Most people at their age can't even face E- Rank dungeons let alone clear them so the fact that he cleared a D-Rank dungeon alone was something historical, to say the least.

"Now that you mention it… How did he do that?"

"I don't really know… Maybe ask him when he wakes up."

"But, as expected of my Rin… He can do the impossible. He is great!!" Aria spoke with a proud smile as she caressed Rin's face.

Elise could only sigh and ignore the weird girl in front of her. She didn't even want to ask what kind of relationship they had since she was sure she will immediately regret asking about it.

A few minutes passed before the healing potion's effects finally started subsiding and they could finally carry him out of the dungeon. They could've done so while the potion was still taking effect but because of his broken bones, they didn't want to restrict the potion and risk deforming his bone structure because of it since his arm could heal at the wrong angle if they did that.

Leaving the dungeon, they found Damian and Selina waiting with anxious looks all over their faces. But, the mere sight of their son in that state turned that anxiousness into pure terror.

Selina didn't even wait for a second as she ran toward them. Aria quickly assured her before they carried him to his room.

Selina made sure to use her healing spells on him again and again until her mana pool was emptied and she fell tired to exhaustion. But, with the help of Damian and the other two, in less than a day, he was back to how he was before. Albeit, he was still unconscious the whole time.

Damian and Aria had to basically drag Selina out of the room before she kills herself because of mana exhaustion.

The night then passed fairly quietly. Elise was given a room where she could sleep as she insisted on meeting Rin as soon as he woke up. The Silvereye family didn't get why she wanted to meet Rin this much and could only question what her intentions were.

"Don't tell me… did she fall in love with my son?" Selina muttered as they sat in the living room.

Elise was in her room so they could talk freely.

"Mother!!"

"What? My son is extremely handsome and charming, I can imagine him being popular with girls. Making the princess herself fall for him… Kyaa!!! My son is way too vulgar!!" Selina's body twisted left and right as she held her cheeks with a happy smile.

"That's not the case!!" The red-haired Aria didn't like what her mother said at all.

She didn't want Rin to be popular with girls since that could rob her Rin away. She doesn't want him to forget about her at all and stay by her side.

'I must make sure that he doesn't get swayed by vixens. It's because I'm his sister that I must make sure that he is safe. Yes, this is what a normal big sister should do to her little brother. There is nothing abnormal about it.' Nodding in her head, she drifted with her wild imagination to another land and left her father and mother talking.

All of this while Rin was completely oblivious to the matter, sleeping peacefully in his room, not caring about anything in the world.

(A//N: Just sleeping while leaving women thinking about him, Giga chad mindset. He is truly the alpha protagonist.)
