NovelEnglishThe light faded, and the healing was complete. Daniel quickly retreated to the other side of the room, fearing that he would lose his self-control.
A few moments later, he heard the sound of cloth rustling and magic materializing.
"Thank you, my lord. You can turn back now," Michaela's voice sounded out behind him.
Daniel breathed a sigh of relief, but deep down, he felt somewhat regretful as he turned towards Michaela.
She had already changed into her casual clothing, which she wore before the bomb fell. She donned a sleeveless white dress with a denim jacket over it, her face slightly blushing with a hint of shyness in her expression.
Seeing her like this, Daniel didn't know how to react or where to look. After the previous heart-racing moment, he felt that Michaela was becoming more and more irresistible.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe two stared at each other in an awkward silence. The moment lasted for a good five minutes before Daniel couldn't bear the tension anymore and quickly stood up.
Besides, he needed to act like a normal survivor in case the rescue team came. He couldn't just drill his way out and accidentally run into other people. If that were to happen, it would be very troublesome. So he decided to wait outside for rescue like any other survivor.
"Er…Michaela, you should rest here first. I need to go out and wait for rescue," said Daniel.
Hearing that, Michaela looked towards the window to observe the outside situation. Seeing that it was already late, she suggested.
"My lord, it's very late. Why don't you rest here first? I'll wake you up once it's morning."
pαndα,noνɐ1,сoМ Daniel smiled and exited the room. As he stepped out, he was greeted by a cacophony of shouting and the sound of vehicles and machinery in motion. It was clear that the rescue operation had begun.
He searched for a comfortable spot to rest his head and decided to take a nap while waiting for the rescue.

In the morning, Daniel was awoken by the repetitive ringing sound of his smartphone. He looked around and saw that some light was shining through the gap in the debris above him, illuminating the area enough for him to see his surroundings.
Daniel reached for his smartphone in his pocket and checked why it was still ringing. He saw that it was a message from an unknown number.
"Huh?" Daniel opened the messaging app to read the message.
"Danny! Are you ok!? Answer me!" read the message from the unknown number.
Daniel was momentarily stunned, realizing that the only person who would call him "Danny" is his girlfriend Koyuki, and this smartphone was given by Wrath.
"Should I call you Wrath, or should I call you Koyuki? Stubborn girl," Daniel typed in response.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe waited for a moment before Wrath replied.
"Thank god you're okay! Wait, when did you know it was me?" Wrath asked in rapid succession.
"Since I heard your voice at Murphy's shack, and I confirmed it after you visited me. You didn't even bother to change your standing or walking posture from back then," Daniel replied through the messaging app.
The message stopped for a moment, then resumed.
"You're not angry at me? From back then, that I…" Wrath didn't continue to type and left the rest for Daniel's imagination.
Daniel let out a sigh. Of course, he was angry. He was angry at her for not telling him the truth or sharing her problem with him. He also felt betrayed. But after he was resurrected, received help from her, and gained this power, he wasn't as angry or betrayed anymore.
"Yes, I'm angry. I'm angry at your stubbornness. You always want to shoulder your problems alone without receiving help from anyone. Back then, if you had told me what you had gotten yourself into, I would have found a way for both of us," Daniel replied, feeling a little sore in his heart.
There was no reply from the other side, so Daniel decided to add more.
"But I didn't blame you or hold any grudges. It's clear that you didn't want the things we experienced to happen either, and you also tried to help me as best you could. Everyone deserves a second chance," Daniel sent, then added, "If I'm not afraid of being found out that I'm a mage, I would have blasted a hole out to meet you... Also, if we had a chance, we should have a date just like old times."
