Anime Crossover: A single ranking exposed the world

Both of my arms were bandaged. Although it was a bit rudimentary, you could still see the care the healer had put in.

Looking down at his body, he found that most of his body had been bandaged.

In particular, his right leg was dislocated and even put in a cast, leaving Kanzaki Teru momentarily bewildered as to what had happened.

She struggled to get out of bed, but because her whole body was almost entirely wrapped in bandages, she was very clumsy in her movements.

Kanzaki Teru fell to the ground in a rather comical manner, which is hard to imagine as someone who had fought off a pack of wolves while seriously injured.

"Notemuevas.estasmuyherido (Don't move around, you're badly injured)"

What came from beside my ear was a language that was somewhat familiar, yet also felt somewhat unfamiliar.

"Spanish? ?dondeestamos (Where am I?)"

The moment he said those words, Kanzaki Teru instinctively wanted to cover his mouth.

He was somewhat surprised that he could speak Spanish.

The other party was clearly surprised that Kanzaki Teru could speak Spanish, and did not respond for a moment.

However, she still went to Kanzaki Teru's side and helped him back onto the bed.

At this moment, Kanzaki Teru finally saw the person who came in, a girl with an exotic look.

Her dark skin doesn't appear to be due to sun exposure; it's probably her natural skin tone.

The girl was holding a basin and a hot towel, indicating that she had just brought back a basin of water.

"This is a small town in Chile called Varda Bama, but it's more like a tribe than a city."

"By the way, where are you from? You don't look like a local. Why did you collapse there?"

The series of questions left Kanzaki Teru unsure which to answer. Although he could speak Spanish, he still found it difficult to fully understand what the other person was saying.

"Um... I don't know where I came from. I think I have amnesia."

Using somewhat awkward reasons and pronunciation, Kanzaki Teru recounted his story.

The amnesia wasn't fake, but Kanzaki Teru didn't intend to tell anyone what happened in the forest.

Although I can't explain why, it's as if there's a voice in my heart telling me not to say it.

"Oh, I see... Then you should get some rest. I never thought you would survive."

When I saw you, you were covered in injuries.

You had multiple fractures and dislocations, and were even dehydrated. It took me a lot of effort to carry you back.

The girl complained as she put the towel into the basin.

Then he cleaned Kanzaki Teru's wounds, though he couldn't see the girl's expression.

But I always felt that her cheeks were a little red, I don't know if it was because of shyness or some other reason.

"Thank you for your help..."

Lying obediently in bed, Kanzaki Teru also expressed his gratitude.

After all, without this girl, he might have really died there.

"that……"

“Ah, my name is Sebastian Maria, you can just call me Maria.”

The girl responded with a sly yet innocent smile, and she looked to be about the same age as Kanzaki Hikaru.

Although Kanzaki Teru knew that people's names in Chile were actually quite similar, especially women's names, which were mostly the same.

"My name is……"

Kanzaki Teru still couldn't remember who he was. He felt like he had the answer on the tip of his tongue, but he just couldn't bring himself to say it.

This feeling of being able to say something but having it stuck on your lips is indescribably uncomfortable.

Maria simply smiled when she saw Kanzaki Teru's predicament.

"It's okay, don't worry about it if you can't remember. Just focus on recovering. Maybe you'll remember someday."

Chapter 464: Mary

"I'm sorry, I've caused you trouble..."

Although it's unclear what Maria's family's financial situation is, the room where Kanzaki Teru is lying is certainly quite shabby.

"It's alright, it's alright. I'm all alone at home anyway, and I'm quite bored by myself. You can come and chat with me."

The girl didn't pay much attention to this issue, but to be honest, taking a strange man home was indeed a bit problematic.

"It may sound strange for me to say this, but...aren't you afraid I might have ulterior motives towards you?"

"Pfft, hahaha, in your current state, you probably don't even have the ability to stand up."

Besides, don't underestimate me; most men aren't as strong as me.

Maria made a move similar to Popeye, as if she were showing off her muscles.

However, all Kanzaki Teru could see was that even when she strained her whole body, not a single muscle bulged out; her slender arms looked as if they could be broken with a gentle grip.

"Besides, you're already in that state, I can't just stand by and watch you die."

Maria placed a towel on Kanzaki Hikaru's forehead to try and lower his temperature.

"Okay, even if I make a guarantee myself, it's meaningless, but I still want to say that I absolutely will not do anything to you." It's very necessary to express your attitude. Since you can't know what the other person is really thinking, you should at least make a verbal guarantee.

"Okay, okay, I know. Just focus on getting better."

The girl said this, then took the basin of water, which was already somewhat murky, and left the room.

"You really aren't good at lying..." (cdfb)

"Who said that! I'm a master liar!"

Upon hearing Kanzaki Teru say that, Maria stuck out her tongue and then left the room.

To be honest, Kanzaki Teru was a little embarrassed to just lie there like that.

But since we can't move right now, it's better to just stay in bed.

If moving around causes the wound to worsen, it would only cause trouble for Maria.

"However, something is still a little strange..."

If you find a stranger covered in blood, you would usually take them to a hospital.

Looking down at the bandages and instruments wrapped around his body, he realized that while his technique wasn't exactly professional, it was more than enough for the immediate need.

"So, she's the doctor here?"

However, such things no longer matter, since Kanzaki Teru's current goal is to focus on recovering from his injury.

Fortunately, his recovery speed is much faster than that of ordinary people. In as little as half a month or a week, his injuries can be almost healed.

As Kanzaki Teru was pondering, he suddenly heard footsteps coming from the doorway again.

“Um…Maria, I have something I want to ask you…”

However, the other party did not respond and closed their eyes again.

Kanzaki Teru noticed that the footsteps were much heavier than Maria's, but there was no indication that the person was trying to hide their presence.

"Who are you!? What are you doing in Maria's house!? Are you here too..."

A young voice sounded from behind Kanzaki Hikaru. Because he was lying in bed, Kanzaki Hikaru was unable to turn around and see the young man's face.

However, he seemed to want to say something, but in the end he swallowed back what he wanted to say.

"I'm just a patient. Can't you see the bandages on my body?"

"You're talking nonsense! How could Maria bring a strange man home for treatment!"

"Ah—so that's how it is..."

Even with just a few words, Kanzaki Teru roughly understood why the young man was so angry.

"Don't worry, I'm really just a patient. I don't like Maria at all, and I won't argue with you about it."

"you--! ? "

Kanzaki Teru thought that the boy would definitely not say anything more after that, but his reaction was beyond Kanzaki Teru's expectations.

"You don't like Mary?! Everyone in the world should like Mary!"

"What exactly do you want from me?!"

Hearing the young man say that, Kanzaki Teru didn't know what to say.

"Come out and fight me! I'll prove I'm the one who deserves Mary!"

"Big brother, didn't you see all the bandages covering my body?! I can barely get out of bed, how am I supposed to duel with you!" Although Kanzaki Hikaru could still move with a little effort, he didn't want to engage in such a pointless activity right now.

"Gonzalez! What are you doing!"

At that moment, Kanzaki Teru finally heard a familiar voice.

“Maria…I see a stranger…”

Chapter 465: A Glimmer of Darkness

"This is my patient! Get out of here!"

The young man was interrupted by Maria before he could even finish speaking.

Then there was a commotion. Although he couldn't see it, Kanzaki Teru could roughly guess what had happened.

"I'm sorry... that person is a friend I've known since childhood..."

"It's alright. On the contrary, is it alright for me to be here? He said it's not appropriate for me to stay here... After all, I've already caused trouble for others. If Maria kicks me out, he won't have anything to say."

"Well... it's alright. After all, it would be troublesome to move you over there again. Just rest here and recuperate." Although he couldn't see the girl's expression, Kanzaki Teru could roughly guess what she was hiding.

Kanzaki Teru wasn't going to let her get away with it so vaguely, even though the girl was thinking of herself.

However, if the girl was blamed because of his own actions, then Kanzaki-Ki would feel somewhat guilty.

"Is it really just because moving there is a bit of a hassle?"

"Really, really, why would I lie to you?"
