Leon received a shock since it was the first time he saw a person who had that kind of wound. However, it was because he didn't pay enough attention. Leon was focused on his own problems that he didn't notice when people without arms, legs, or ears passed by him. Leon only recovered when he saw Gisela sweating bullets and trembling.
"I'm… if you are feeling unwell, you can sit and rest." Leon corrected himself. "There is nothing to do here, so you can rest."
Leon said that he was sorry, but he stopped midway because he had no right to pity her. Leon sighed because he had been too naïve… Leon worked hard to escape from the island, but he felt like he took everything for granted. He didn't consider that he couldn't regenerate lost limbs, and Leon didn't consider that he could have lost his eyes in the middle of a battle… he only thought that his wounds recover no matter what.
"I'm fine, Leonard, you don't have to worry about me," Gisela said. "What are your orders?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"My orders? I don't have any," Leon said. "Will you be punished if you don't work or something?"
"No, the only person who can punish me is Leonard," Gisela said.
"… Please don't say that again," Leon frowned. "It makes my back feel itchy."
"Understood." Gisela nodded. "The bath is already ready, please take your clothes and let me wash them."
"… I think I can do that myself." Leon sighed. "If you really want to do something, why don't you buy something for dinner. I don't have anything to make a meal; I don't even have spoons. I want some hot dogs, what do you want to eat?"
"Anything is fine, what do you want me to eat, Leonard?" Gisela asked.
"… Why don't you buy some hot dogs for you and something sweet to eat?" Leon asked. "You look a bit underweight, so a parfait or a cake should help you."
Leon touched Gisela's hands to pass the coins only to see her trembling slightly; for some reason, she was afraid of males, but that didn't bother him. Leon transferred the coins, and Gisela left to buy dinner.
"What the hell is going on…"
Leon wasn't that dirty or sweaty but hurried to clean himself and wash his clothes. It has been a long while since the last time Leon saw himself alone with a girl in his room. Although Leon wasn't interested in doing anything at the moment, he recalled the memories of the days when he brought his girlfriend to his room—always making sure that he was clean and not smelling bad.
"It looks like my life here will be a lot more tiresome than I thought…"
Much sooner than Leon thought, Gisela returned, by the look of her tired face, she went to the market running and returned while running as well. Fortunately, she didn't arrive on time to see Leon changing; he was already meditating in the corner of the apartment to calm his nerves and relax his body.
"… You can go ahead and eat; I'm not hungry." Leon said.
"I'm not hungry, Leonard," Gisela said. "What are your next orders?"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLeon sighed, it looked Gisela became a person who had a single reason to live, and that was to obey orders. Although some people could think that as normal in a world like that, Leon couldn't help but feel troubled, first of all, he didn't need a maid; he survived alone for four years, after all. Still, looking at the tense expression in Gisela's face, it was possible that she would collapse if Leon doesn't give her any orders.
"… Understood." Gisela said and then lowered her heard but then suddenly raised again.
"You don't have to look at me, just tell me how you worked," Leon said.historical
Gisela lowered her head again and then started to describe her life in that past four years. Although Leon didn't ask for that, she said because she concluded it would be necessary.
Four years ago, Gisela was an exchange student from Germany when the monsters appeared; she was in the first year of college. In fact, she had been for New York for two weeks when the monsters appeared. Her family was away, and she didn't have any friends yet, so she had no one to help her. Despite the odds, she managed to escape the city alive and unscathed.
"Wait... didn't you lost your eye when the monsters attacked?" Leon asked.
"No..." Gisela answered.
Unfortunately, after escaping, Gisela ended up joining a group of thugs. She wasn't alone, several people were with her, and eventually, everyone discovered how to get stronger by learning skills. The thugs had weapons, but the weapons they had barely could compare to the power a person could obtain by practicing a few hours. The more people that could fight, the better. But those thugs weren't thinking among those lines; they wanted to keep the power for themselves. So, every time they saw someone who could threaten their hegemony, they would beat that person to death. Fearing for her life, Gisela decided to obey... but that had been a mistake. Without the power to protect themselves, she and several others became playthings to those who were using the system and strengthening themselves... Gisela's nightmare started there.
