IN ANOTHER WORLD I BECOME A HEALER WITH PURPLE HAIR - Chapter 215 - 215 A friend in need is a friend indeed

215 A friend in need is a friend indeed

(Warning: This chapter contained discussion about an adult relationship which is probably not suited for some people, reader’s discretion is a must)

Anne was stunned by her friend’s statement. “That was a lie? Oh my God, Brom! How could you?!” She could almost feel her anger build up, all because of how detached Brom into the world sometimes.

“Well, she spoke up, right? So, it serves the purpose.” Said Brom with a shrug. He looks around the room and revealed the reason, “I saw how lost everyone was at that time, so I just gave some hope, which the crown prince took the chance for.”

“You…You are something else.” Muttered Xavier, even to the extent of shaking his head.

Justice looks at Brom, and said, “You took the risk, and I don’t know if I need to applaud you or be scared of you.”

His words gave Brom a burst of laughter, he looks at Justice and said, “How about we call this a help? We get the information that we need and do with it.”

With a gasp, Anne even punched Brom’s arm. “No need to be rude, Brom! What’s gotten into you!”

“I am not!” He tried to protest, but afterward just mumbled and go away.

Anne took sighed and excused herself to chase after her friend. The others stayed behind and discussed all the information that they gathered from Amelia.

…..

“Should we trust her?” Asked Arthur to Justice, “I mean, we don’t know if she was lying.”

“She doesn’t have any choice. Like it or not, Brom’s plan was actually working.” Justice answered Arthur and then look into his father, “Amelia told us that the main troops are guarding the main port, because there’s Javier was located, and the others roaming the area in a small group.”

“Not so small, remember? Almost two thousand rebels and there’s only what? one thousand reinforcement?” Xavier told him while looking at the map.

“Yes, but they don’t have two crucial jobs, the magi and magic knight. They only have like fifty magi and the rest are knights. They don’t even have a magic knight.” Vale get his own opinion and asked king Edward and Justice, “How about if we focused on penetrating their defense from one side?”

“That would be a hastened attack, but it could work.” Said king Edward, he still trying to concentrate, even though he tried to hide his mixed feelings about his true son, siding with the enemy.

While the others have a discussion in the main room, Brom and Anne were sitting on the deck together.

“Did you hear anything from Darla?” Asked Anne to Brom.

“Yes, she is going to be here, with the other reinforcement.” Brom answered her and he looks at Anne, asking her another question, “What did she say to you this time?”

Anne knew what Brom was trying to ask about, “Nothing, just some mumbling of the same old words, what about you?”

Brom stared at her for a short while and then replied, “The same old thing. I wondered if Henry got his nightmare again?”

Immediately going defensive, Anne tried to stop Brom. “Don’t! He already got through enough, and I was finally able to give him some good rest.”

“What did you do? Did you…”

Anne glared at him. “No, I wasn’t, seriously Brom, not everything is about the physical connection here.”

He chuckles when he looks at how flustered Anne was. “I was joking. Oh, why do you always so pure about this kind of thing? I mean, you have four gentlemen who love you dearly, and assuming now you are more than just a friend with them, it is time for you to take your relationship to another level.”

“Do you think that… That they think about this kind of thing, also?” Anne was trying to avoid the subject from the four of them, but felt that she didn’t need to be alerted about Brom. He is her best friend and already has a lover of his own. n𝗼𝗏-𝑒1𝑢.𝒮𝑏-𝓬)0,𝚖

Brom took a long sigh and look at his friend, “They already have feelings for you for a long time now, of course, they thought to have bedded you for a while now.” He leans on his chair and looks into the sky, “Look, even Darla and I have our own time to do some romance, I do look like the uncaring man sometimes, but not if it’s involved Darla. I saw her and another instinct as a healthy man always succumbs to me, the instinct that I surely asked for permission from her if she wanted as well, or not.”

“This is my first real relationship with a man, and not to mention I have four at the same time.” Anne was giggling nervously at Brom.

Brom smiles while his face still looking at the sky, “And it is normal here in this world, four, five, even ten. I presume it is not the same in your old world?”

“Yeah, my old world was not that progressive, although the acceptance of any type of free love has already been going on, not as progressive as this world.” She answered Brom, trying to imagine her old world, even though it’s more like a vague imagination, rather than a vivid image.

“Hey, you’re the people in this world now, don’t you dare think otherwise,” He said to her, and this time, he looks directly at her, “Meanwhile, as for the other thing that I had mentioned, probably it will be best if you asked Darla about it. I feel uncomfortable talking about it with you, after all.”

Anne was laughing. “Oh, this is one of the rare moments that you can finally express your feelings.” He tried to shut her up, and Anne raised her hands, she looks at him and tried to talk to him, “Brom, look, about the other things, you know, the midnight monster lair…”

“What about it?” Asked Brom, but he spun his head to Anne, “Don’t tell me that you’re not going to accompany me now.”

Before they could discuss it furthermore, the sound of a horn making the two of them stand up, Brom’s eyes begin to glow, ready for anything that might come for them, but Vale comes from inside the room and smile at them.

“They are here. The reinforcement troops are here!”
