Projection

Two hours after the collapse of the barrier, in Charlotte's private estate, Astrid rested on the sofa, gazing at her fully healed arm.

She sighed inwardly, marveling at the magic of this world.

In her previous life, such a severe scratch would have taken at least ten days to heal completely.

Taking a sip of the healing tea handed to her by the attendant, she barely replenished some of the fluids lost due to her injury.

Crossing her legs, her eyes fell on Lyra and Elise, who were seated nearby.

Her expression softened slightly at the sight of them.

The two maids had been brought to the manor by Charlotte.

They were first examined by a healer to ensure their well-being, then given a chance to bathe and change into fresh maid uniforms before returning to the living room to attend to Astrid.

Coincidentally, the maids and bodyguards tasked with protecting Astrid had emerged unscathed.
