In Another World I Become a Healer With Purple Hair

238 Connection Between the Nightmare

“Are you perfectly fine?”

Heirim asked Anne again, while the purple hair healer took a stand from her bed. She smiles at the lady and nodded her head.

“I am fine, no worry…” She went quiet for a while and look into Heirim. “I was just curious though, she really surprised to see you here.”

“To tell you the truth, I do feel like she was someone that I knew, but I can’t just pinpoint who.” She rustled her head, thinking so hard about the witch of the mountain. “She seems scared as well, I wonder why?”

“You know who else that she seems so scared of?” Said Anne to Heirim. “It was Brom. He told me they encountered at my village, two years ago. She wasn’t happy to see him, in fact, she ran as fast as she could.”

“Just like the earlier encountered.” Said Heirim, she folded her hands on her chest. “Interesting.”

Suddenly, the door opens abruptly, Henry came inside with Brom.

“Anne, are you alright?” He goes to his beloved and checks if she was alright. Heirim rolled her eyes and was kind of fascinated to see his softer side.

“She was fine, brother, I was here with her.” Said Heirim to him.

.....

“Your sister is right, and besides, the witch will never harm her… Physically though.” He say it so confidently even Heirim winced when she heard it.

“Excuse me?! Captain Brom, even though physically she was fine, but consider her feeling as well, she was being harassed!” Heirim was livid and even glared at Brom.

Unhinged by her, Brom then said. “Aren’t you a junior of the second rank now? Please respect me as the higher rank.”

Henry and Anne look at them with aghast, this is the first time in history, for both of them, as Heirim has never been challenged by the commoner, and Brom never actually pull his rank towards the lower rank before. Henry took a sighed and finally asked them to go outside.

They eventually go outside, but not before Henry asked his sister if she was alright. Heirim just gave him a shrug on her shoulder. “I am fine, she seems scared of me, because as soon as she looked at me, she run as fast as she could.”

Brom and Henry look at each other.

The magi captain gave his opinion to Heirim. “That’s weird, the only one that she kind of displays a fear was…”

“You, yeah, Miss Anne already told me, anyhow, I’m exhausted, going to sleep now.” She wave goodbye to them and entered her room.

“Asked Anne to write on the note, we can discuss this, later at dinner time.” Brom gave his request to Henry and then went away.

Entering the room once again, Anne was in the middle of pouring some meylatee tea into the cup. She was smiling and handed one cup to Henry. “I need this to sleep now.”

“So was I.” He sat on the chair by the fireplace. “I was with Brom on the stable when I heard you screaming, we ran as fast as we could.”

Anne took the note and begin to write everything. “I am fine, thankfully your sister was nearby, she help me so much, or I probably going to be harassed for a long time.” He nods his head mumbling some incoherent words. Anne could see he was already tired but still afraid to sleep. “Henry, how about you’re sleeping here, by my side.”

His eyes went wide. “Anne, are you sure?”

“Hold your thought for a moment.” She stop him and finally gave him the reason. “I am going to sleep beside you to make you relax, I mean, you’re getting better, but Vale told me about how you’re tossing around and just get like three hours of sleep.”

“Vale talks too much.” Muttered Henry.

“Vale was right though, that’s why I asked you to have accompaniment as well, I know how bad your sleeping habit is.” She approaches him and crouches in front of him, holding his hand and smiling. “Let me help you, I know you can sleep better if you’re closer to me.”

Huffing his breath, Henry rustled his hair in frustration. “Fine! I’ll sleep in this room, but not with you on the bed.”

She tilted her head, curious of his reason. “Why?”

“Well, for one, I may be able to sleep, but my other mind will never let me sleep, especially when it is someone that I love.” He smirked at her, and Anne was blushing at his statement.

“Oh… Err… I’m sorry, you’re right. At least let me put some blanket, I don’t want you to sleep on a hardwood floor.” She insisted to give him the blanket, and there was nothing that he can do.

After a while, they set in to take a six hours rest before dinner time. Anne was settling down on the bed, while Henry sleeping beside her on the blanket just to make him a bit comfortable.

“How is it?” Asked Anne to Henry.

She hears him chuckling. “To tell you the truth, this is heaven compared to the time when I was on a journey with my grandfather.”

Anne went quiet for a while and then tried to ask her questions about his journey with his grandfather. “I heard from Justice that you don’t even send them any news for a year.”

“Yeah… I… I don’t feel it was necessary.” Said Henry to her.

“I am sorry.” Muttered Anne so suddenly.

Henry took it by the heart and jump out to see her directly. “Would you stop with all of the apologies? I mean, we know better now, obviously for you as well.” He was furious at her. “Anne, we love you! We do have our fallen for two years, but I think that was making us stronger now. My journey, Justice’s way to overwork, Vale focusing on his missions, and Xavier’s way to morose at some bar. All of it just makes us know something in our heart.”

“And what is that?” Asked Anne.

“That we are in love with you.” He smiled at her and slowly put his hands on her face. “My nightmare wasn’t your fault, Xavier, Vale, and Justice never even considered that everything is your fault. So… Can we please just love each other and think about our future?”

Tears come running down from her eyes, he gets closer and licks it directly, with a slight giggled from Anne, her lips met each other and tangle for a moment. Until sleep come from them. They go to sleep and this time with a smile on their face.

But, after three hours of a well-rested sleep, Henry was screaming and got startled. His body was full of sweat while he looks at Anne who was sleeping soundly on the bed. He caressed her cheek and go outside. Justice saw him at the hall of the inn.

“I was looking for you, where have you been?” Justice asked him, noticing that his face was pale, he approached his friend immediately. “Henry, what happened?”

His eyes were looking around the hall, he was panicking and said to Justice. “I… I saw the person’s face, I finally saw the killer in my nightmare.”
