Existential Crisis

"You alright?" Melody asked while walking to Clovis, who was lying down on his stomach. His fingers were spasming. 

"Yeah. You good?" Clovis replied with a coarse voice.

"I have no injuries thanks to you."

"Then do you mind collecting their essence? I don't think I'm in the condition to do that." Clovis let out a long sigh.

"Sure, but for now…" Melody lifted Clovis up and placed his hand on her shoulder. She started helping Clovis climb the stairs. 

She brought him to the surface and started bandaging him. They grabbed the water bottle from the bag on the UTV, which Clovis bought from Another World Mall. The water was refreshing and helped with their stamina recovery.

While tying up the bandage, Melody couldn't help but say, "Seriously… I wonder how you, Jay, and Ragna always get injured." 

"We are simply protecting the people on the back." Clovis shrugged.
