Nathael tensed, feeling more discomfort compared to the other injuries.

Without waiting for Nathael’s reaction, Maggie leaned in from behind and said, “This spot is swollen and filled with pus. Should I open it up and drain the blood? It would hurt a lot though.”

Maggie knew that leaving it untreated could lead to further complications.
