Nameless King

The seal on Wain's hand glowed as a dark sword that exuded a powerful dark aura appeared beside him.

"You are his weapon...? Can you talk...?" Ceozi muttered with a dazed look.

"Yeah. Something like that. You're an experienced blacksmith, you shouldn't be surprised by talking swords, should you?" Gladius uttered as he, with a few short leaps, reached Ceozi.

"Sure. It's just unexpected, anyway. Living weapons are some of the rarest, you know?" Ceozi said while staring intently at Gladius as though at a rare animal.

"I do, but this isn't a good time for that kind of talk, right? We have to help Wain, his condition is extremely serious." Gladius pronounced as she turned toward the bed.

"I agree, but why did you stop me? These potions cost quite a bit, they can certainly help him! I'm not trying to poison him, I swear!" Ceozi exclaimed.

"I know. The reason is not that I don't trust you, your intentions are crystal clear, the problem is something else." Gladius muttered.

"Hmm?" Ceozi raised an eyebrow.

"Though you are a blacksmith, not an alchemist, you should know what intoxication is, right?" Gladius asked as he stared at her.

"Of course, everyone knows that. You don't need to be an alchemist for that." Ceozi shrugged.

"That's exactly what's happening to Wain's body right now." Gladius muttered in a serious manner.

"Are you sure?" Ceozi frowned.

"Yeah. The fight was hard, very hard, so he had to use literally everything he had to win. At one point, he drank all his potions at once, over ten of them." Gladius said in a quiet voice.

"More than ten?!" Ceozi exclaimed while in disbelief, "That's practically a lethal dose!"

"It is." Gladius nodded, "If you add those potions, Wain's body certainly can't take it, especially given the severity of his wounds."

"What do we do then?" Ceozi uttered with a worried look as she put the potions aside.

"Don't panic. Wain's condition is severe but stable. We must act properly and clearly. First, we need to wash all his wounds and bandage them. Don't you have everything you need?" Gladius asked.

"Of course." Ceozi uttered before heading toward the chest in the corner of the room.

She bent down, but suddenly her face contorted in pain as a trickle of blood flowed from the corner of her mouth.

"I told you not to hurry. Don't forget, you're seriously wounded too, the only thing that saved you was that their main goal was to kill Wain, you were just a side issue." Gladius said as he flew over to the potions.

He leaned over slightly, tossed one to Ceozi, and said, "Here, drink this. It will be more useful to you now than to Wain."

"Sure." Ceozi nodded as she caught the potion, "I'm just too worried, this is the first time I've had this situation... I've never treated anyone this way before."

"Huh, there's a first time for everything." Gladius grinned.

Ceozi smiled, opened the vial, and the green liquid flowed into her mouth as her wounds began to heal instantly with great speed. Ceozi was worried as she wanted to help Wain in any way she could, so Gladius' confidence added to her own.

"Good. Now let's get to work. We have a lot of work to do. Unfortunately, I don't have any hands, but you can definitely handle everything." Gladius uttered as a wave of energy came out of him.

"Don't even doubt it!" Ceozi clenched her hand into a fist in a confident manner.

She pulled out some bandages, a jar of ointment, and several bottles of water from her trunk.

Ceozi spent the next hour treating his wounds. She washed all the blood off his body, cleaned the scratches and deep dirt cuts, applied ointment to the most traumatic places, and bandaged him tightly.

...

'Huh, this girl turned out to be so sensual and caring. I didn't expect that.' Light Racer uttered while holding his arms crossed.

'Well, it often happens that formidable and cold-looking people turn out to be completely different.' Blind Sorcerer smirked.

'She had such a strange face when she heard Gladius' voice, I wonder what would have happened if she had seen all of us? She probably would have fainted. Ahahahahahaha.' Code of Light and Darkness laughed.

...

"Phew..." Ceozi sighed, took the sweat off her forehead, and said, "Done. What do we do next? Wait for the effects of the potions to wear off?"

Gladius was silent for a while, he looked now at Ceozi, then at Wain, and said, "No. I have another option. The outer wounds are no longer a threat to him, but the situation on the inside is much worse than on the outside."

"What do you mean?" Ceozi asked while in confusion.

"We can't use potions, but there is something else here that will have the same effect, but without the risk of lethal intoxication." Gladius uttered before turning to Ceozi, "It's your blood! Demon blood!"

"No! No! No! That's out of the question!" Ceozi exclaimed while waving her hands in a dissenting manner.

"What...? Why?" Gladius asked in a confused voice.

"Don't you know that's something special for Demons!" Ceozi uttered as she blushed, "Demons only give willingly to drink their blood to those they love! Only those they would like to spend the rest of their lives with, whether it's home or the battlefield!"

"I'm aware of that, but Wain is not a Demon, so not sure that rule works in this situation." Gladius said while swaying from side to side.

"It doesn't matter! He's a human, but he's still a man! I'm sure he'll be fine without my blood." Ceozi waved her hands.

"Ceozi... I understand you, and I respect that you take the traditions of your race so seriously, but if you don't help him, he will die." Gladius pronounced in a serious manner, "If he didn't risk it, he wouldn't win, in which case those two would surely finish you off. Besides, Wain has a girlfriend, so it would just be a help, without any subtext."

"Are you sure...?" Ceozi asked as she bit her lip.

"Of course."
