Neera took a look at the tree hole, which was about the same height as her, then glanced at the dart in front of her, and couldn’t
help but sigh.
Despite having been busy all day and utterly exhausted, how is it that this old man still seems so energetic, showing no signs of
fatigue at all?
Compared to him, it was she the younger one, who seemed to be at a disadvantage.
Shane walked over, patted her shoulder, and smiled like a spring breeze.
“That’s just how Mr. Weaver is. Don’t regard him as an old man. He’s always been in good health, and his energy surpasses that
of the young lads. If you’re training with him, you’ll have to get used to this.”
With a helpless shrug, Neera had no choice but to obediently go for training.
However, even though she was already very tired, she remained serious once she entered training mode.
Unfortunately, the darts were thrown again and again, but they never hit the mark.
Finnley, holding a big coffee mug, was giving directions on the side.
“Oh dear, this won’t do. Lift your arm a bit higher on the same level with your shoulder.”
“Right, just like that. Good, put some strength in your wrist... Ah, you almost got it. What a pity. Let’s try again.”
“No, no, this angle. It definitely won’t hit...”
The more he looked, the more absurd things seemed. He simply put down the big coffee mug and walked over to pat her arm.
The moment he touched her, he heard her hiss in pain, her brows furrowing as if she was in great discomfort.
“What’s the matter? Are you not feeling well?”
Neera shook her head, paused for a moment, then nodded, “There is a bit...”
Upon hearing this, Finnley immediately became worried. “What’s wrong? You silly girl. Why didn’t you say anything if you’re
feeling unwell?”
Shane had been keeping an eye on the situation. Seeing this, he quickly walked over with concern. “What’s wrong? Neera, is it
your wound that’s hurting?”.
Finnley furrowed his brows, “A wound?”
Shane explained, “It was during the last attack that Neera injured her shoulder.”
Finnley was aware of the attack, but he didn’t know that Neera had been injured.
Hearing this, he instantly felt a pang of regret. “Girl, you should speak up if you’re not feeling well. How could you force yourself
to endure it? If your wound were to split open and get infected, that would be really bad.”
Neera chuckled, soothing him in return. “Don’t worry. It’s just a minor injury. I’m taking it easy. It’s fine.”
Even though she said that, the truth was her shoulder injury was causing her quite a bit of pain. That was why she couldn’t lift
her arm straight.

Not only that, but she had been walking all day. This was the first time she had experienced such a high level of physical activity.
Her feet were burning with pain, probably from blisters that had formed. Therefore, even standing
was a torment to her.
Yet, seeing that everyone else was still in high spirits, she didn’t want to be the one to slow them down, nor did she want to
cause them any worry. That was why she had been persisting without showing any signs of struggle.
After spending these days together, Shane had come to understand her way of thinking quite well.
At that moment, he let out a soft sigh, comforting her with his gentle voice.
“Neera, you don’t have to constantly think about accommodating us, nor rush to make yourself stronger. We can protect you. Our
mission is also to protect you, so don’t feel like you’re holding us back or anything. You really don’t need to be like this. I am
serious.”
Upon hearing this, Neera pursed her lips, then let out a laugh and a sigh.
“Indeed, nothing escapes your keen eyes. Alright, I was hoping to learn it as quickly as possible, but it seems it’s not something
that can be achieved overnight. It looks like I’ll have to put in more effort moving forward.”
At this moment, Finnley also hurriedly urged, “Yes, whatever you do, you must proceed step by step. Being impatient trying to
gain quick success and instant benefit won’t work. Alright, you should hurry back to your tent to rest. You’re still injured and can’t
continue training. Otherwise, if your wounds worsen, it will be terrible.”
Neera chuckled. “Rest assured, I’m a doctor. I am in control of my own condition. I’ll be fine.”
Afterwards, she returned to the tent.
Sitting on the sleeping mat, she relaxed and let out a long sigh.
“Finally, I can rest...”
Murmuring softly, she removed half of her top, revealing the wound on her shoulder.
Sure enough, the area wrapped in gauze was faintly showing a hint of blood. It had cracked open slightly.
After reapplying medicine to the wound and bandaging it, she also applied medicine to the chafed area on her foot.
A while later, there was some noise from outside suddenly, followed by a familiar voice.
“So, you guys are indeed here. Have you had dinner already? It seems I’m a bit late.”
It was Caleb’s voice.
Neera was somewhat surprised as she did not expect him to come. Hence, she quickly put on her shoes and got up to leave the
tent.
Outside, the members of the Cox family were already lined up at the entrance of her tent. Every one of them was on high alert,
creating an inexplicably tense atmosphere.
Shane was quite composed, standing face to face with Caleb. Politely, he greeted, “Mr. Medicina, I wonder what brings you here
so late?”
