Are We In Hell?

If I needed proof that the King really cared for Tiara, then the fact that she didn't even hesitate and jumped straight into the portal was proof enough.

I would have jumped in with her as well but there was one thing that I needed to deal with first.

"Katsuki!" I cried out, running over to my Inugami maid.

"Unggh… I'm alright Mistress… Forgive me for my tardiness…" She groaned, pushing herself up to lean on her elbows.

Her clothes had been enchanted so it absorbed most of the damage, though there was now a hole burned through it above her chest. The skin underneath it looked a little red but at least she looked fine.

Just in case, I used [Close Wounds] on her anyway.

I also healed Odeta who tried to insist she was fine as well before turning towards the portal that was still hanging there ominously.

"I guess we should jump in there?" I asked.

"Ha ha! Ready when you are, Sister Aster!" Odeta grinned.
