A new life for a new problem

Chapter 15

"I'll explain everything later, we need the help of a priest immediately."

Deruth got up, to go get the person he asked for before hanging up. Basen seemed worried and he didn't see Cale near the orb. He just hoped that his condition wasn't too serious but he needed the help of a priest quickly... He stopped thinking to run across the estate.

—

A few minutes later a light appeared in the room with a priest and Deruth Henituse in addition to a mage. Basen was surprised at his father's speed, he was sure that the priest came from their own estate. It would seem that he had recruited caregivers during their absence.

The priest went to the doctor to help him treat Cale while the count went to Basen.

"What happened, why is he like this?" He became worried at his son's paleness, but he didn't see anything else that was wrong with him.

"We don't really know, he came back covered un blood-"

Basen stopped talking to help his father to one of the chairs in the room to prevent him from falling too. He then explained to him what he knew, which was not much. The count even ended up questioning Choi han who was with Cale last. As with Basen, the swordsman was unable to answer, he was not with him. He now had a third dark look directed at him.

While Choi han was being argued with by Deruth and Basen, the doctor returned to them.

"The young master's life is no longer in danger, all internal injuries have been treated. He just needs to rest now and recover the blood lost as I told you before."

Everyone was relieved at the doctor's words but they still had questions.

"Do you know where these injuries came from?" It was Deruth who asked.

"No, the best thing would be to ask young master Cale when he wakes up."

"Do you know when he will?"

"Not for at least a few days, his body is very weak, ."

"Fine, one more thing can we move him?" Deruth could feel Basen's gaze on him at the question.

"Of course, there is no risk for him to do so." After agreeing, he left the room. There was nothing more he could do here anyway.

"I think it would be best if he returned to the county. » Deruth suggested, thinking that Cale could rest more if he was safe in the county.

"I don't think he'd agree to that. He seemed to really want to participate in the gathering, he could also rest in the estate at the capital. There's still plenty of time before the celebration." Basen was sure that if Cale was awake, he would have agreed with him.

"I'm not sure-"

"Young Master Cale?" Everyone looked up at the sudden mention of Cale by the always present priest. Against all odds, the young master had opened his eyes.

"How are you feeling?" He checked the young master's body once more.

Cale didn't answer, he was barely aware of his surroundings. He had a terrible headache and felt exhausted. It didn't take long for everything to go black a second time.

"He fainted, his body really needs rest. »

Cale didn't wake up after that, completely oblivious to all the commotion around him. The count ended up accepting Basen's request but at the next incident Cale would return home. With the help of the mage present, Cale, Basen and the priest were teleported to the Henituse estate in the capital. It took more time for everyone to finally arrive at their destination. No one really noticed the absence of Choi han who had received other instructions before the start of the journey, he simply warned Ron that he had to leave on Cale's orders. The butler reluctantly covered for him. The premature arrival of the Henituses caused a stir in the capital, the rumor of the young master Cale seriously ill quickly spread.
