Derrick's eyes fluttered open, the faint whisper of his thoughts echoed within his head.
The voices of Sir Thompson and a stranger echoed through his mind.
His moment of confusion only lasted a few seconds. The next thing he felt was a rush of energy unlike ever before.
His eyes shot open, and his body shot up, startling Sir Thompson.
"Was he supposed to wake up this fast?" Sir Thompson asked the man beside him who had an expressionless look on his face.
"I... I'm also stunned." The man spoke, his voice shaky, unable to believe the scene before him.
"What happened?" Derrick asked, his heart beating erratically.
[You fell unconscious, so I gave you something for energy.]
"You... Were critically injured while fighting some forest beasts." Sir Thompson broke the news.
Derrick stared at his bare chest, his hands and eyes scanned through them for any remainder of the attack.
He could still feel the sharp pains coming from his stomach, but he could tell it wasn't anything fatal.
