A fatal mistake (Part two)

Ve was hit and I was the one who hit her. 

I caught her before she fell on the ground and slowly lied her down. "Ve…"

Her body was warm but it was going cold. My hands shivered and my breathing got erratic. 

Her blood was on me. The blood I spilled….

Red.

She was conscious but- "Sorry, they can use spatial magic, be careful." She passed out. 

With shaking hands, I pulled out that sword and tried my best to heal her. but I didn't have enough magic. 

The wound wasn't closing. 

My magic was not enough. 'Th-the elixir!'

I had one last small vile of elixir on me and though Ve was unconscious I slid it down her throat. She couldn't swallow and it barely passed her throat. 

Her breathing stabilized but she wasn't out of danger. The wound was still not fully closed and she was in a lot of pain. 

"AHHHA SA HAH AH!" The emperor just laughed: his laughter, ominous. "See, how naïve?"
