Once he noticed him he rushed to the bed shouting Cale's name.

When he was next to him he could see that he was conscious though coughing up blood and struggling to breathe. He didn't take the time to think much more, but called Ron from the bedroom, telling him to call holy Jack, who was the only person in the villa who could provide medical care at the moment.

Ron, who had returned to the villa, heard the dragon's order even though he didn't understand the reason for it. He quickly headed for the twins' room to take them back to Eruhaben.

He was very surprised when he approached his young master's room, there was a smell of blood. Once the door was open, he was shocked to see his young master awake but still not in a good state.

"Hurry up! "

Both awoke to the sound of the dragon. Jack approached the bed to try to nurse him back to health.

"What happened? "He was shocked to see Cale alive and rather relieved too.

"I don't know... he just woke up suddenly."

"What's-" Cale tried to speak he was very confused, he didn't seem to be in the palace anymore and he seemed to have people around him. On top of that, he wasn't feeling very well at all, in addition to chest and head pains.

"Don't talk, we'll help you, calm down." Eruhaben immediately tried to reassure him but it didn't help at all now that he was seeing the ancient dragon he could see tears on his face and even his expression seemed desperate.

« Did someone die?»

It was the old powers that answered him.

-...you... just a little

«What?!»

-It's nothing, we've taken care of almost everything. It'll take a while before you're completely cured.

«Can you explain what happened?!»

-Of course. And the super rock explained everything.

As he spoke with his powers, in reality he was staring into space again.

"Cale, stay with us, don't faint! "Eruhaben tried to wake him up, but Cale was too deep in thought to hear him.

"Can you do something for him? even heal him a little! "

"I'm sorry I can't do anything." Of course there was nothing to do most of the problems were side effects of using his powers and the rest were in the process of being cured by his power.

"Fine, I'll call Alberu." He did immediately as he said, he was afraid he'd lose Cale again, he didn't want that anymore.

The communication device quickly connected with the prince. He looked incredibly tired. "What-"

"We don't have time for this make the doctor come right away Cale is awake! "

"Huh? " His eyes snapped open he didn't understand how this was possible.

"You can come too, but summon him now and I'll come and get you." Eruhaben teleported to the palace in a second. He returned with two people in the room.

The doctor immediately rushed to the bed while Alberu stood back he couldn't believe what he was seeing his sworn brother was alive again he desperately wanted to touch him to make sure it was true but in time he was afraid it might be an illusion of his tired mind.

"Young master you are with me."

Cale nodded he was back in the present with all the noise around him.

"I'm going to give you something to help you breathe." The doctor put a mask over his face again he also helped him with the blood he was coughing up again.

"Are you in pain anywhere? "

Cale nodded.

"...Head..." He was really struggling to speak with the blood and his shallow breathing.

He also put a hand to his chest.

"Are you having heart pain?"

Cale nodded once more. The redhead's gestures worried everyone in the room.

"All right."

"How's his condition?" Eruhaben asked worriedly.

"His body hasn't been oxygenated for a while it's normal for him to be suffering from head and heart pain, he must also be exhausted and struggling to breathe as you can see. It's a miracle in itself that he's still alive."

The doctor didn't continue and instead helped Cale with the pain. His family didn't say anything, they know it too.

Once the doctor had finished, he stayed in the room, he preferred to stand back and keep a close eye on him for the time being.

Eruhaben approached Cale again.

"You should sleep if you're tired, we'll stay with you." He said as he stroked his head now that the situation was a little calmer he could finally get over his emotions and see that Cale was alive and well again with them.

The redhead shook her head at the dragon's words, confusing him."Is something wrong?"

Cale didn't want to go back to sleep he was afraid his ability would reactivate, every time he closed his eyes his discs played bringing back unpleasant memories.

"Cale, you need to explain so we can help you."

Cale was still reluctant to talk to him, the old powers spoke again.

-Maybe you should tell him everything.

« No, it's too risky.»

-The old dragon has only known you and not the old Cale, and he's been watching over you since you fell ill he's hardly left your side.

«But-»

-I don't know if you know but we barely caught up with you this time. I'm not sure we can do it again.

This time he's got nothing, maybe they're right. He didn't really have a argument, just fear blocking him.

-You can always ask for the presence of those who already know, they'll be able to help you talk to him, given your state, you won't be able to do it alone, in addition to supporting you.

« I'll think about it...»

-At least see Alberu or Choi Han, they already know. But you really need to talk to someone.

«I'd rather be with them...but I'm not sure he'll leave me alone...»

-But try!

«...All right»

"Cale?"

"Alberu..." All eyes turned to the prince.

"Does he know anything?" Eruhaben asked quickly, not forgetting to slip him a dark look thinking he'd hidden something from them, the mixed blood shuddered at this.

Cale shook his head, calming the dragon. "Talk."

"You want to talk to her? "

Cale nodded.

"Alone?"

He nodded again. Now the dragon was confused and puzzled. Why only him? No doubt he knew something.

"I really can't stay. He asked anyway, just in case. He was a little hurt that Cale didn't trust him.

"No..."

He sighed, but left the room anyway. The prince quickly approached Cale.
