Dawn Of Legend:Rise Of An Extra-Chapter 248 :In Exchange For Cure

Unbeknownst to him, Lucas had fallen asleep out of nowhere. In the midst of writing some additional information, his eyelids felt heavy and he was drawn to sleep but he woke up immediately feeling a crushing pain in his heart.

Lucas opened his eyes and was bewildered to see drops of tears sliding down his cheek.

He placed his palm on his chest that was thumping against his chest wildly.

'What the fuck?'

Lucas immediately wiped away the tears while trying to remember the dream he had a moment ago.

"What happened to me? Why can't I remember anything I just saw?"

"Did someone attack me by invading into my dream or did they pull me into their dream? Is it the Emperor? Or did he instruct someone to deal with me?"

He muttered feeling his mind go blank as many questions started ringing in his mind one after another.

He started to remember the contents of the dream but felt something was blocking him from remembering things and the more he tried to remember forcefully, the more his head started to ache.

As he was about to ponder about it, he heard a rustling sound coming from the bed.

.......

The mana inside Julian's body was constantly shaking fiercely while her body tried to assimilate as much as possible heat from the surroundings.

Slowly and steadily her face started to regain her austere and the chillness started to subside slowly.

A warm sensation enveloped her giving her a cozy and comfy feeling that prolonged her peaceful rest.

She didn't know how much time had passed.

Whether it was a moment or a few days, she didn't know about it.

The delicate eyelids adorned by thin eyelashes matching the silvery bluish white hair of the beautiful woman who had been lying in the same position for an unknown amount of time quivered gently for a moment before finally beginning to move upward slowly.

Blinking a few times, her crimson eyes were unfocused and her body was feeling quite warm and cozy, making her feel extremely comfortable and giving her a soothing and relaxing feeling.

Julian closed her eyes again and sighed in her heart after trying to figure out her memories of what happened after she passed out.

It was really like a roller coaster. The things she experienced in such a short period weighed her down.

At this moment, the memory of Lucas holding her in his arms and confronting Issac appeared in her mind.

As soon as she remembered it, her cheeks started to heat up as she had faint memories of all those intimate moments. It was the first time a man outside her family touched her, making her feel weird.

Though she wasn't embarrassed about it, she felt a bit shy.

She remembered Lucas' warm touch which made her reluctant to part with him.

Previously, Lucas had just touched her back but now she wondered if Lucas had touched more than that as he carried her.

"Haaa....." She sighed heavily.

"That scoundrel really took advantage of me this time." Julian muttered with a coquettish voice which when heard may give a heart attack to many.

If anyone can record her voice and leak it to the public, the entire Cyprus might burn in jealousy and if anyone manages to find the identity of that person, he might become the number one public enemy of the masses.

"And who might be that scoundrel that you are referring to?"

Julian's brows furrowed and her expression distorted as she heard a hoarse heavy voice.

She got up from her bed and the moment she looked around, her expression cracked for a moment seeing Lucas sitting on a table near the window and looking at her with a cold bloodied expression giving her a shiver down the spine. 𝙛𝙧𝓮𝓮𝙬𝓮𝒃𝒏𝓸𝒗𝓮𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝓶

She was unable to react for a moment seeing that intense gaze. Realising something, she looked down and saw that she was dressed properly.

Though her skin was exposed a bit, it was nothing much and for some reason, she was not embarrassed at all but her heart was beating wildly seeing those intense gazes.

"Why are you here?" She asked.

Her voice was quite soft, much contrary to her previous cold self.

Even she hadn't noticed that her usual indifference had softened slightly when she spoke this time.

The coldness in her voice could not be found anywhere rather was filled with warmth and carried a tiny hint of concern.

Lucas looked outside and saw the flowers swaying in the gentle breeze. He may have looked serious but inwardly felt a bit absent-minded seeing Julian with her clothes soaked in sweat sticking close to her body giving him a peek at the marvelous curves with well-endowed proportions.

Everything about her looks perfect.

However, he felt this wasn't enough to force him to concede or lose his mind.

Taking a deep breath, he spoke,"I am asking the same question myself.''

"Huh?"Julian tilted her head in confusion.

"We shouldn't dwell on such useless matters." Lucas turned back and spoke with a smile.

Julian stared at Lucas's smiling face and her eyes widened for a moment as she saw his smile overlapping with a certain someone.

'So, was it true? Was that the end that I...no we were going to experience?'

Julian bit her lips and her fighting intent soared.

Lucas pushed the dairy on the table and pointed at it.

"Your Highness, please open it after I leave."

"What's in it?" Julian asked.

"Cure....Cure to your treatment."Lucas answered truthfully.

"The cure to my illness…." Julian muttered softly, unable to process these words.

After a moment of silence, a scream erupted from her lips.

"What?! Cure to my illness? Where did you get this?"

Lucas kept mum for a moment before answering,"Does it matter?"

Julian shrank back under those scrutinizing gazes,"If it works for real, I dont think it's matter." She muttered nonchalantly.

"However, I am not giving you this for free. I want something in exchange."
