An Explorer's Guide (BL)

Completed! =) Healing is not just healing, it is also politics. Edwin had heard it all, had repeated it time and time again. He did not want to accept those words. They were vile, they were poisonous. A necromancer such as himself had no right to become a healer, he still did his best. An altruist like him had no place in the service of the king as Boliarin. He still refused to give up the title, for fear that someone else would take it, and plunge Duria into chaos. All his life, he had played by the rules. Even when he suffered losses, even when he believed he could not look himself in the mirror. Everyone has a breaking point. Edwin did not lie to himself. He was calm, but not sane. The camel's back had long since been broken. And yet, when his ray of moonlight, the vampire Hadrian, offered to travel with him, Edwin agreed. He lets himself pretend he was good, hoping he might lie to himself one of those days. Would Harry be enough to stop him from darkening the world? Or would he end up just another villain, who had once been bright-eyed and hopeful? The story is complete, and has 109 chapters in total, around 1k each. Updates: 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. Thank you for your time! =)

Chapter 106: Training, part 1

Chapter 106: Training, part 1

 Edwin chanced a look at his two shadows that were facing off against a horde of shambling corpses, courtesy of Maxwell and Hunt. He paid for this slip of attention with a kick that nearly connected to his stomach.

"Quit babying him! Make your strikes count, Polites!" Hunt snapped from the viewer's sit. There was a small crowd cheering on the shadow vs walking corpses match below. And Edwin had to both fight Harry and keep them hidden from the spectators.

He breathed in deeply and then charged at Harry, who sidestepped and went to hold him in his arms.

"Dead?" Hadrian asked more than stated.

"I think that was enough for one day," agreed Edwin, breathing heavily. The gentle arms moved lower, and Edwin hid them from Maxwell and Hunt, too. Hadrian supported Edwin as they kissed and then, when they were done, Edwin let go of the illusion.
