“Huh, he’s pretty interesting… guess I’ll choose him”
Even before the fray had begun, a larger predator had already set its’ eyes on its’ prey.

“HA! NOT YET!” [Lan]
I finally knocked out all of the elves that came at me but there were still archers inbound. I heal quickly but probably only with light wounds and I’m not the defense type how do I make up for it?
The answer is…
An elf meat shield!
“Here I~ go” [Lan]
I used their commander as a shield then slowly crept back into the crevice, I blocked the entrance with his body so that I could recover, albeit, even only a little.
Of course the archers can’t shoot their commander, right? HAHAHA! It’s fool proof!
After a few minutes of calming down and eating the fruits I had to replenish my energy, someone suddenly kicked the commander out of the way, taking away my only defense against the archers since I’ve used a lot of arcana this is bad-

“You-“
“Look out!” [Lan]
An arrow suddenly flew towards the entrance, aimed at this lady that didn’t have pointy ears. Before I could think, my body moved on its own, regardless if this woman was an enemy or not. I couldn’t catch the arrow with my bare hands like earlier so I shielded her from the arrow with my non dominant hand. As the arrow pierced through my arm, I caught the extension of the arrow before it could reach me.
“Ara~ what a gentleman”
Is she… human?
“Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?” [Lan]
“Rest assured, only you are the one who needs treatment”
“Thank goodness. Get inside!” [Lan]
As the woman went inside, I swiftly took the commanders body to block the entrance of the crevice-
“Ah that won’t be necessary”
Before I could even ask, the woman waved her hand to the entrance then suddenly, a few barriers were erected- just like that.
“Wha-!?” [Lan]
“Impressive aren’t I?”
“W-who are you?!” [Lan]
“Rest assured, I’m not hostile unless I am made be… for now I am here since I saw your eye in a pretty bad shape, is it not? I happen to have some eye drops with me”
“Huh?” [Lan]
Eye drops? For an eye that has a huge hole in it?! Is she cra-
“Now, now… bend down so I can apply the eye drops”
“But-“ [Lan]
“Bend”
“Bu-“ [Lan]
“Now”
She suddenly released an unfathomable amount of bloodlust; pressure I could only succumb to-
“Yes ma’am” [Lan]
I bend down then-
“Ah, can I borrow your blade? The lid on the eye drops container is a bit hard to open you see”
“H-here” [Lan]
“Now then”
…
She did not have eye drops.
Why did I even listen to this woman?
She sliced the tip of her finger then made its’ blood drop on my broken eye-
“HEY WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!” [Lan]
“Silence… with this, you’ll be fine”
“AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!! IT HURTS!!!!” [Lan]
“For now- will- stro- si- …”
I felt my consciousness fading as the pain from my eye became more and more intense and it was spreading throughout my body rapidly. Before I actually got knocked out, the last thing I heard was-
Hosea.
