Chapter 672 - Viona's Class - Part 1

Viona opened her eyes, and the first thing that came into her sight was an unfamiliar ceiling. "Where am I?" She was confused before getting a sudden headache. She rubbed the side of her head as she tried to recall what happened to her and how she could end up here.

'I remember that we are in a battle, and I have been fighting…. Ah, I passed out after the battle was over.' She recalled everything. Recalling the battle, she moved to the side and threw up. The nauseous feeling from recalling the gory battlefield came into her head, and her belly churned up. However, her stomach was empty, and the thing that came out from her mouth was just acid.

Viona wiped the acid from her lips and laid over on the bed. 'Lilliana, are you there? Do you know where I am?' She tried to communicate with the spirit in her body but received no response. Receiving no response from the spirit, meaning Lilliana had left her body. She let out a sigh and tried to get up, but she realized that she had no energy.

Viona tried to push her body up, but her hands were trembling. All her joints were sore, and her legs also had no energy. She barely could move her body, even though she managed to throw up just now. 'What is this? What happened to my body?'

"Oh, you woke up?" A deep voice interrupted her thoughts. Viona's eyes moved to the side and noticed a man enter the door. She had never seen this man before, a gray-haired man with a thick white beard. The man closed the door and leaned his back against the wall. "Lord Tang Shaoyang said that your body is exhausted because you pushed yourself too hard. That's the side effect of [Spirit Fusion]."

"W-who are you?" Even though Viona was still weak, she could tell that the gray-haired man was strong. It was a weird instinct she had never felt before. She heard a lot about Alton, but she had never actually seen his face. If there was a picture, it was a picture of the young Alton, not the old Alton.

"Me? I am Marshal Alton." Alton replied to the lady with a frown on his forehead. "Lord Tang Shaoyang asked me to look over you, though I don't understand why he is interested in someone like you. It's not my place to question The Great Lord."

Viona was shocked to hear that name here, but again, she made a deal with The Emperor. It was normal for that man to command someone like Marshal Alton, the Legend Rank Knight. Even though Marshal Alton's words were unpleasant to her ears, she said nothing about Thinking about it, Marshal Alton was right. Why would that man be interested in her? She had seen his Elven Wife, who was much more beautiful than her.

"Lord Tang has a message for you. He said it's not too late to back down now and said that your battle performance was disappointing." Marshal Alton added.

"No! I will not back down!" Viona responded instantly as she raised her voice. She soon realized that she was speaking with a Marshal. She was not supposed to raise her voice when she spoke to someone like him.

"I see." Marshal Alton nodded his head. "He had expected that answer from you. If you don't change your mind, come to the Bareham Tower once you recover. Don't ever come unless you have recovered!" Marshal added and opened the door. Before he left the room, he glanced at the woman on the bed. "Don't you ever do something nasty to Lord Tang, or else I will kill you and your family with my hands."

Viona's heart skipped a beat when she met with Marshal Alton's gaze. After the warning, Marshal Alton closed the door. She wanted to get angry because she was the one who got taken advantage of by their Lord, but Marshal Alton had the nerve to warn her like that. 'It's not like I can do that either. What can a weak woman like me do to the man who managed to unify Gigante Forest?'

"But who will expect the Legendary Knight like him serving someone aside from the Flame Queen," Viona muttered in a low voice before shaking her head up again. "It's not the time to think about that. I have to recover as soon as possible, or else I can't join the next battle. Anyway, how long have I been unconscious?"

"You have been unconscious for three hours, woman." Another voice rang in the room, a bit too childish tone to her. She looked up and saw a flying golden lizard descend from the hole in the ceiling. The golden lizard then landed next to the pillow and laid down next to her.

"My name is Wrath, and my Master sends me here to make sure that you don't break down." After saying that, Wrath remembered something and flew back to the ceiling. The Golden Lizard returned with a golden scroll in his mouth, two of them. "He also asked me to give you these two scrolls, and you can choose one of them after you recover."

Viona's right hand moved, trying to reach the golden scroll, but Wrath slapped her hand away with his tail. "Master said you can pick after you recover. Just lay down and recover quickly if you want to get one of these."

"It should be fine for me to check the scroll, right? It's not like I have something to do as I can barely move my body." Viona looked at the Golden Lizard with a frown. "And you said that I have to choose one of them, so it will give me more time to think which one I should choose."

Wrath fell silent for a moment, and he found out what the woman said made sense. He nodded his head and pushed the two scrolls to Viona. "Alright, you can check it out, but don't try something funny, woman."

Viona nodded her head and reached the first golden scroll. There was a screen that appeared before her eyes as soon as she held the scroll.
