It was already afternoon when your wife finally came to. She sat up from her soft pillow and looked up at you worriedly. The sweat beads streaming down her reddish-brown locks and that fatigued look on her face almost made you forget how she got into this weak state in the first place.

It was in the dungeon one week ago when she ran into an Undine. A pesky monster spirit made of water who attacked any adventurer they sensed in the dungeon. Unfortunately for you it happened to be your darling wife.

In all honesty, the whole incident could have been avoided if your wife’s employers, the Tansu’s, hadn’t purposely shoved her in the way of the Undine to shield themselves from the attack. Although she was alright, the whole ordeal of reviving her took a lot from her body, leaving her in this coma-like state for a week and making you worry

With an observant expression, she turned to you and reached out for your hand

“Hey, snap out of it and respond to me. I asked you what happened.”
