Chapter 211. Flood
I finished our intimate moment on the Rooftop, leaving behind a single witness.
After righting the overturned Shower Tent, I returned to the Hospital Ward. Euna and Schneider were still deep in sleep.
“Oppa. I’m sorry.”
“Huh? What for, all of a sudden?”
“I thought wrong. I shouldn’t have done that with you, Oppa.”
I smiled and told Seulgi it was fine. Her apology wasn’t about a moral transgression, but rather her concern for my injuries. Though not a doctor, Seulgi was my attending physician now. She was blaming herself for making a patient who hadn’t fully recovered engage in strenuous activity.
“I told you, it’s really fine thanks to my Ability. Look, I’m perfectly alright.”
“That might just be how it looks on the surface. I’d like to do a thorough examination, but there’s no way.”
“It’s fine. More importantly, where’s the Principal?”
Contrary to her worries, I actually felt better after showering and even having sex. Of course, it could just be a feeling, as Seulgi said, and I know how foolish it is to claim I know my own body best. But there was no other way. All I could do was trust in my Increased Resilience, which was close to 300.
“Are you going to see him now?”
“Yeah. No need to wait until afternoon, let’s go now.”
“Alright.”
Following Seulgi, I went down to the 5th floor. People had set up temporary living spaces on the 4th and 5th floors and were residing there. The 3rd floor was kept empty as a precaution, with only guard duty being performed there.
