Back in the real world.
Forgetting these terrifying images, Alberu preferred to do what was best for Cale's health.
"Cale, do you want me to call Ron or Eruhaben-min? "He waited for an answer from the redhead, but it never came. He turned his attention back to Cale, who seemed to be staring at the ceiling of the room.
"Cale, are you all right? "
"..." Still nothing.
He was getting worried, already wanting to call the doctor back immediately. The situation was much worse when he saw him suddenly close his eyes.
Chaos broke out again in the room, but the main person behind the mess was already comfortably asleep.
The other three who had heard Alberu also turned towards the bed. They saw that Cale's eyes were closed again.
"Has he fainted again? "Eric asked worriedly.
"Shall I call the doctor again? "Taylor was as worried as he was.
Of course, Alberu and Amiru were no better.
"*sigh* Calm down, he just fell asleep." Another voice was heard in the room which surprised everyone.
"Eruhaben-nim, are you sure?"
"Of course, what do you take me for? "
Faced with the dragon's fierce stare, he answered nothing.
"Well, now that everyone has calmed down, can you explain? I was coming to get Cale to take him back to the villa, he told me to come to the palace to pick him up after the meeting with the nobles, so why is he in this state?"
The dragon's now stern gaze was directed at the pale crown prince.
"I'll explain everything to you..." And he told him everything, the dragon became more and more upset with him as he had promised them and this was the result...
"I see, I'll take him back to the villa immediately".
"I don't think that's a good idea, the doctor looking after him is at the palace so it would be easier for him to stay here".
"No, the palace isn't really the safest place for him".
The two continued to argue until he heard laboured breathing coming from the bed.
"Cale?! "
Eruhaben quickly rushed over to him only to find that he was still asleep.
"What's wrong with him? " Asked Alberu worried about another problem.
"I think he's having a nightmare..." He frowned.
"Should we wake him up?"
"Hmm... I don't know if that's a good idea but at the same time we don't really have a choice."
The golden dragon shook the redhead's figure a little in the hope of waking him up.
"It doesn't seem to be working..."
He tried again several times but always to no avail.
"We can't seem to wake him up."
As he spoke he checked his temperature again.
"His fever's still rising..."
"What should we do then?" Alberu was very worried.
"I-"
He fu cut off when he heard heavy breathing coming from Cale, it sounded like he was starting to choke.
"Hey Cale! He really needs to wake up soon..."
