He wanted to go and heal to recover, but even that was no easy task. As there were still enemies a plenty. And he wouldnt be able to find safe space just like that. Enemies where everywhere, no matter how much you cut them down. As he fought through them. One of them landed a shot on his foot with an arrow that went thru
"Fuck" is what he thought to himself as he fell onto the ground and quickly conjuring out an ice spike out of the thin air to lodge it into the archers head.
Alexandre pulled himself away from the battlefield and all those in it. Including allies. He pulled out an arrow that was in his foot. He hated to say this but the pain was unbearable. He got 3 rather strong wounds on him and he was not in the best shape. He needed to rest.
Again he went to improvise some first aid he could do. Like try and disinfect the wounds. He had some alcohol on him. Drinkable one, not quite medical and sterile, but contained alcohol so it should in theory do good. He had a flask of some booze with him. Like beer and he decided to pour that on the wound. He wasnt sure how effective that was to say. Its not like he knew the percentage of alcohol. But he needed to do this to recover.
He hated this, but he felt he needed to stay out of the battle for now. He sat and wanted to rest against the wall but remembed his back got fucked up too. He definitelly needed assistance from a teammate, but everyone was busy either helping civillians or fighting the enemy.
Granted he could go back to Rose, but he didnt want her to see him in this injured state. He decided to nevertheless push himself onward, even if he was unable to walk. He went behind some cover, preferable with a good vantage point so he can see the enemy. And he would use his magic to assist from afar.
Using an ice spike like a projectile for sniping the enemies. But even with that help, he needed to mind his mana and how much magic output he can do. Alexandre cursed his weakness and lamented his woes. He was not in his prime like these younger generations are. Nor is he magical like a seraph or something that has an extended life. He was a mere mortal man
On the bright side, the numbers were surely dwinding and he could see Tamas taking care of the few last men that were up there. Because he arrived so late he was the one full of vigor the most. Alexandre though didnt want his companion to see him in this state. So he went to find a nurse or a medic. Eventually he'd find a volunteer nurse and put himself in her care.
While other members of Paradise Dawn would go on to help the civillians. Including Tamas as well, Alexandre though had to stay out of that. He was out for the count as he was too wounded to actually help the wounded and the trapped and the homeless.
The medic were able to take him in and treat him. They didnt have healing magic but good ol fashion traditional methods of non magic, which meant his recovery process would be long. He felt hurt and pain. It was unbearable, but something he had to endure. Although at least he was in the company of a lovely and caring lady who was pleasing on the eye.
It was sad she had to tend to others as well as he enjoyed the nurses presence and he wished to spend time with her more. So only he could do is rest and watch her at work while hearing some whispers and going ons from the passerby people from his guild that brought people for medical care.
Alexandre couldnt help but he wondered if he even wanted to help if he was able to. Probably not. Charity work was not his kind of work, so he was glad to stay out of this. Although the man didnt know of the challenges to come, for his old age he felt this was enough excitement for a day. He would trust Tamas and the guild to take care of the Chaos Eclipse. And the more things would move on where the guild would take care of the problem, the more he could relax. With him eventually being free from medical care, he was able to return to his guild just on time as they would celebrate their victory over Chaos Eclipse. Alexandre wanted to see Tamas, but would see that his friend was busy and having a moment with Lumikki. So he opted to celebrate on his own
