TWIN SUMMONERS

[I HAVE to endure this. If I fail, Neoma will make fun of me. I'd rather die than have her laugh at me for my failure.]

That was Nero's motivation to keep standing even though he wouldn't stop coughing up blood. In fact, it wasn't only his mouth that was dripping with blood. His ears were also bleeding, and he was even crying with blood.

He was lucky Neoma wasn't there or else she would have killed him for making her look 'ugly.'

[Yeah, Neoma would care more about her appearance than her body's condition.]

However, the person next to Nero didn't have the same opinion.

"Your Imperial Majesty, with all due respect, please stop if you can't handle it," Commander Ruto whispered harshly. His words were polite, but his tone was definitely rude. It was as if the commander just forcing himself to be courteous towards Nero. "And may I remind Your Imperial Majesty that it's Neoma's body and not yours?"
