The condition of the female has not improved.
Her cheeks are flushed unnaturally, her body is covered with cold sweat, and her breathing is rapid and shallow, her delicate brows tightly knitted together, clearly in discomfort.
She mumbles quietly about feeling cold, then incoherently says she's hot, her pale fingers subconsciously tugging at her collar, even accidentally scratching a few red marks on her skin.
The man immediately grasped her hand, stopped her actions, and then reached out to feel her forehead, the temperature alarmingly high, even hotter than his own body temperature.
It's worth noting that his body temperature is naturally high due to years of intense combat, making his body temperature higher than the average person. Yet now the female's temperature feels burning even to him.
The man felt a tightness in his chest, somewhat flustered, but soon calmed down.
The fever must be caused by the inflammation of the wound.
