After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World novel Chapter 1236

They immediately ran to her, to take the sword off. Obi kicked the attacker, getting him as far from his mother as possible. The person flew straight to the tree. Rather, he kicked so hard that the bastard went through a few trees.

The attacker dropped down on the floor, body at weird angles. His bones were broken by the hit and he just laid there, gasping for air.

While the rest rushed to Gaia, Orion went there to make sure the attacker couldn't do any more damage. He appeared above the bastard, realizing it was Bilia.

Even after being drowned, electrocuted, and stabbed, this bastard apparently still had enough life to make one last damage.

Orion felt especially heavy. Not only did his heart clench for his mother, he also felt burdened by the responsibility.

He was one of the people in-charge of clearing up any loose ends. This was his oversight.

Because they were in such a rush after finishing off Vaza and Aswan—and due to the fact that they didn't see him—Orion overlooked the fact that the speedster was there, not even considering he could still be alive.

Orion's cold eyes looked down on the bastard.

His jaw was broken, so his mouth was open and he was drooling. On top of his current wounds, he gazed particularly horrible, like a deformed monster.

Orion didn't question how he was still alive anymore. He simply raised his blade and stabbed, beheading the bastard.

...

Meanwhile, the rest of them tried to feed Gaia with as many healing potions as they could, hoping to stop the bleeding.

At the same time, Koro dropped down as he looked at Cyna, who also laid bloodied on the floor. Parts of her were missing… and they didn't even see exactly how it happened.

Things happened so quickly.

It was Cyna who was the one defending behind them. To get to the Mistress Gaia, the enemy had to go through Cyna first.

And go through Cyna… he did.

In the enemy's rush, he just took out the blade and attacked relentlessly, and it was only the final blade that ended up on Lady Gaia.

The person who took up most of the damage—was Cyna.

In retrospect, Koro could remember Cyna several meters away from where she was now. Did she block the way for the Lady? Very likely, but they would not have a chance to thank her at all.

The Golds were also heartbroken about Cyna—of course, they were—but keeping their mother alive, to keep her from joining the underworld, was the priority.

However, even when Veronica and the rest of them gave all the potions in their bodies, Gaia's condition didn't improve. Even when the bleeding stopped somehow, she still got paler and paler—as if getting closer to death by the second!

Olga tore a bit of her mother's clothing to get a closer look at the wound. Her pupils constricted at the sight. "It's poisoned—"

"AHHHH!" Zaol screamed, "Let's go back!"
