I will Save this Doomed Plot

Chapter 68: Hero(5)

· Dad!

"Brother!"

Luke's nose and mouth began to bleed. He was about to cover them, but he suddenly felt dizzy. He saw his group shouting something to him, but he couldn't hear them. Then, all of a sudden, everything went pitch black.

'Damn it, this weak body of mine!'

Luke wanted to frown. Despite having worked in a variety of jobs in the past, his body was still frail. It was due to malnutrition when he was young and he was originally born with a weak ass body. His nose will always bleed whenever he works past his limit. But he can't do anything about it though, he needed money in the past.

He thought that it would be fine now since he had the God of Light's blessing, but he was wrong. But he had noticed that his body had become weaker than before. In the past, his limit was staying up all night for five days. He guessed that using [Shifting Earth] constantly made him weaker.

"U-ugh....."

Luke sat up and touched his head while frowning. He felt like a headache was brewing inside him.

"And look who decided to wake up."

Luke flinched and turned his head to the side. He then saw Lance sitting beside the bed while reading a book. Luke blinked a few times before muttering.

"Maybe I'm still inside a nightmare...."

"I can hear you, you bastard. This isn't a dream, you fool."

Luke sighed and turned to Lance, who was still reading.

"How long have I been unconscious?"

"For a month."

Luke's eyes widened and he looked at Lance, who didn't even budge and kept on reading.

"Month? A Month?!"

"Yeah, a month, are you deaf?"

"....Fuck."

Lance frowned and slammed his book shut. He then looked at Luke with glaring eyes.

"Just what's gotten into you? Overworking for three days straight without a single wink of sleep is something even I can't do. I've heard that you only eat sandwiches for lunch every day. Who do you think you are? A superhero?"

Luke sighed and scratched his head.

"It's the fastest way to get home so...."

"Tch, unbelievable."

Lance sat back in his chair. It was silent inside the room. Luke just sighed and tried to feel something on the bed. He then finally felt what he was looking for. He then gently patted an invisible Nash, who appeared to be sleeping. Luke then spoke while patting the sleeping Nash.

"By the way, your highness, why are you here?"

Lance sighed and looked up at the stone ceiling inside Ruth's castle.

"Ruth called me two weeks ago, saying that you had fainted."

"And? What did you say?"

Lance stopped for a moment before speaking.

"I just said to leave you alone and you'll wake up in a few days or so."

Luke looked at Lance in disbelief.

"Wow, so heartless."

"But you always wake up days after fainting. But surprisingly, I am not surprised at how long you've been asleep. You DID save an entire kingdom, literally. You go house after house. It is only natural to be unconscious for months, especially..."
