According to Guangyang's investigation, there is a weak magic reaction in the nearby area, so the specialty barrier that Xion mentioned that Oboro left is functioning without any problem.
Although the explanation given to the top management is that "we are staying temporarily to prevent unexpected situations," but judging from the current situation, there seems to be no need to worry.
In fact, regarding Argento's care of Xion, his superiors agreed that he should do it while doing other things that he should do. However, if Anne did not appear and the repair work was handed over to Mist, it would be left to Argento. There is no “other thing to do”.
"That's great. I can now focus on taking care of Istar with peace of mind."
Although it requires some clerical work, it can be done in a private room.
That is, until Theon has recovered to a certain level where administrative matters can be taken care of and the focus can be on caring for him.
"Did you suddenly feel enlightened?"
"Maybe."
"Before the terrorist incident happened, I hadn't been to Xion that long..."
After hearing what Anna said, she couldn't help but laugh.
"why are you laughing?"
"Sorry, the wording is exactly the same as Istar. I noticed this and couldn't help but laugh."
"In other words, Theon himself is here."
Anna's surprised expression seemed to be visible in her voice. This reaction is also very similar to Theon.
"Well, it is indeed a relief...I don't worry about Easter anymore."
"I won't do you anymore..."
"I know that the other person is not someone I can understand, and it is not the time to escape... If you really want to know about Theon Istar, the best way is to watch, isn't it?"
At least, that's certainly what Anna did.
She didn't think about it over and over, but used the appearance of Xion she saw with her own eyes as the basis for judgment, until now.
And Akid is convinced that this is the best and shortest way to understand Theon.
"And...I found it was more dangerous than I thought."
As mentioned above, in order to gain a deeper understanding of Theon as a person, I certainly think it would be better to act than to think, but equally, if not more, to worry.
"Even if I am unreliable, I still want to solve everything alone. In order to protect what is important to me, I despise myself."
"And even if I said I did it because I wanted to do it, he wouldn't accept it frankly. Even if I was worried about him, he would look blank and continue doing it without reflection."
Anna continued Ajit's words and complained about Xion.
"Sometimes I worry about whether someone will accidentally die because of us somewhere."
"...Ah, yes."
It is clear that he is an "illusive" man who is completely contrary to the impression, but he is worried that he will disappear as soon as he leaves his sight.
Noticing this side of Theon may be the end of luck in a sense.
"Maybe it's a little strange...I don't want Istar to die..."
Even with great power and the ability to use magic beyond human understanding, Theon is still a child who is not even an adult.
Just such a laughing and playful child, who didn't ask for help or complain, was quietly injured and was about to die.
This is something Xiaojing cannot ignore in any case.
Don’t want to be ignored as a person.
"From my standpoint, this kind of feeling shouldn't exist, but now that I've discovered it, there's nothing I can do about it."
"What does it matter? In fact, you are not an honor student, right?"
"yes."
Although Ajit's tone has changed now and he behaves like a typical soldier, he is definitely still a rude mobile armor pilot in essence.
Although I don’t intend to show myself like that on the surface, it doesn’t matter if there is a part of me that cannot be a role model.
"...From now on, I will be careful not to let Istar act recklessly. There may be times when I cannot move from my position..."
"I am relatively free in this regard and will help."
Needless to say, Anna also understood Ajid's intention, and then laughed softly like a child remembering a prank.
"Xion is basically the type to figure things out on his own. If he takes care of him, his rhythm will be disrupted. At most, you should take care of him diligently and make him happy, brother..."
"...Leave it to me. It's more troublesome than the two of us, and my wrists will snap."
Finally, the two looked at each other, smiled, and hung up the phone.
Back in his room, Xion was already sleeping deeply. Ajid quietly covered him with a quilt while thinking about how to take care of him tomorrow.
After waking up, she looked at the unfamiliar ceiling and felt a little at a loss. After saying this, she remembered that she was being taken care of in Xiaojing's private room.
Compared with before going to bed, the body was somewhat less fatigued, and it was easier to move around. As soon as he sat up, he saw Xiaojing doing some errands on the low table next to him, looking over here.
"...Well, good morning."
"Ah, good morning. But it's already noon."
After hearing what he said, I checked my watch and found that the time was past 13 o'clock.
Thinking about it carefully, although he didn't know what time he fell asleep, judging from Aki's attitude, he probably slept for a long time.
"How's your body?"
"much better."
"How's your appetite?"
Before he could say anything, Theon's stomach made a stupid clicking sound.
Ajit smiled at the propaganda, which was easier to understand than words, and handed a small square container to Xion.
"Sandwich bar?"
"Well, I know you must be hungry, so I prepared it."
Then, Ajit handed the small bottle filled with water to Xion. In order to allow Xion, who was not feeling well, to open it easily, he opened the bottle first, then slowly closed it, and then handed it to Xion. This carefulness His attitude is admirable. Half bewildered and half bewildered.
There is a scene where Ajit asks the hungry Theon to eat slowly. After eating the belated breakfast, Ajit puts his big hand on Theon's forehead.
"Do you have a fever?"
"I'm just tired..."
"If you are so weak, it is possible that you may catch a cold, right? But it seems that there is no problem at the moment."
"Can I take a shower if I don't have a fever? I don't know if it's due to night sweats. I feel a little sticky."
Although I don’t know the exact time, at least twenty-four hours have passed since I washed my body in the hot spring.
Theon himself is not particularly fond of cleanliness, but once he cares about it, he will want to be clean.
"That's okay...are you standing alone?"
"Well, it should be fine."
Put your feet down from the bed and stand up to show her.
Xion judged that there should be no problem, and wanted to walk out gracefully - but he fell heavily.
At the critical moment, Xiaojing's help prevented her body from hitting the floor, but it was still very dangerous.
"...can't you?"
"Captain, something happened."
"If you think you can get away with it this way, you are totally wrong."
He was picked up slightly roughly from being supported and immediately fell onto the bed.
He looked at me seriously.
"One thing I learned very quickly, I don't have a problem with trusting you."
"I don't think so."
"With the current trend, you still insist that there is no such thing. I really question your nerves."
Theon noticed that the words and deeds he usually displayed as a "captain" around him showed signs of being off the record, indicating that he was angry.
"No, I think I can go too..."
"Then forget it. What next? What to do?"
I tilted my head, meaning "What are you going to do?" Jingren raised two fingers.
"If you want to take a shower, you have two options. One is to take a shower with my help just like you would in a hot spring."
"Use a pass."
No need to think too much, just answer as soon as you pay attention.
However, it is still very difficult mentally for me to have others wash my body at this age.
"Two, wipe yourself with a wet towel."
"But, there are areas that you can't reach, right?"
"I'll wipe it, no problem."
"Rejected! Isn't this almost the same as the first option?"
Ajit smiled evilly at Xion who shouted. Seeing his expression, Akito understood that Theon would have such a reaction.
"It's so tasteless..."
"Because you don't consider your own physical condition and want to act recklessly. Please be more honest."
Akito said this while breathing heavily, but now that he thought about it, he wanted to take a shower.
And I feel like I’m losing if I back down here.
"Then a compromise. I'll take a shower first. If I fall in the shower, it's okay to just go the nursing route."
