"Is that..Is that man dead?"
"Did these men really kill someone?"
"Was he beaten to death?"
"He is fine!" Brad, who had punched the man in the face, crouched down and pulled him up from the ground. "Get up! There is no need for you to play dead."
However, even if he shook the man with all his might, Dale didn't move.
"He—you really killed him!" The beast woman, who had been silent till, turned to look at the three men who were dumbstruck. They really killed someone?
"No! We didn't," Colby shouted as he turned on his feet and ran away. The other two men also turned on their feet and ran out of the restaurant. Neither of them cared about the man who was lying on the ground.
The woman who was left alone was stunned. She saw the men running away and looked around. What was she going to do now? After a quick thought, she kneeled on the ground and shook the man.
"Dale."
"Dale, Dale! Get up!"
Among the four men, Dale treated her the best which was why the woman agreed to be with him. If not for the constant hunting and killing of silver foxes, she would have chosen to be with Dale and not anyone else.
"...What a mess," Wistoria sighed. "It seems like I have to go and catch those men. How can they kill someone and run away?"
The reason she did not react till now was because she thought that the man was pretending to be dead. Who would have thought that he really died? It was just a simple punch.
"I need to check up on him," Damien said to her as he got to his feet.
"Hey, what are you —"
Damien didn't give her a chance to stop him as he crouched down on the floor and looked at the man. He placed his fingers against the neck of the man —
"This.."
He wasn't breathing!
Nor did he have a pulse.
If he was correct then —
[This is cardiac arrest.]
Someone in the crowd could not help but say, "Hey it's over...he is dead. You might as well give up."
"Yeah, you should stop."
"I don't think that there are any chances to rescue this man."
Though Damien could hear the words of the people around him, he did not give up.
There was no way.
"Just a bit more," he muttered to himself as he pumped the chest of the man. He could definitely save him. He will save him!
He raised his hands and gave one last push.
"Damn, just breathe!"
"Ah!" the man who was lying on the ground unconscious woke up with a gasp. His eyes flew open and he looked around in panic.
This—
This man really saved someone? No! He brought someone who died back to life!
Wistoria's eyes widened, and her mouth went slack. She knew that Damien was skilled, but she never knew that this man was this capable!
Even healers would refuse to treat a patient once he stopped breathing but Damien—
She turned to look at the man in front of her with an appraising gaze. How come he knew things that others didn't?
The people in the crowd were also looking at Damien; they all had the same stunned and surprised expression on their faces, as they couldn't believe what just happened.
This man—he really saved a dying man.
"This is amazing."
"I have never seen anything like this before."
"Damn it, doesn't this show that my brother could have been saved? He also fell unconscious before dying. If those healers had tried a bit more —"
"Hey, what are you saying?" Another man sneered. "They are great healers; how could they care about people like us? This man is too kind, and he did so much to save the life of this man."
At that moment, Damien was simply like a saviour to them.
