After what felt like minutes had both the young prince and Molly had slowly begun waking up causing the young prince whose body, despite the healing, felt incredibly sore along with his throat.
And a mouth that still held the remaining blood he hadn't had the time to completely discharge with causing him to then vomit it all out into a nearby bucket.
Having now felt incredibly sick and weak followed by Molly who had done the same in the same bucket they shared.
Causing both Mera's and Annie's heart to break all the while holding their hair away from the buckets, however, neither noticed having been too weak and sick to pay attention to such things.
Resulting in neither truly caring about sharing the bucket let alone think much else.
Moments later Iva, Ayla, and surprisingly Nox had arrived together causing Ayla to ignore such a disgusting element just this once causing Ayla to then pout but ultimately still chose not to say anything.
After both the young prince and Molly had come to at least 'some' of their senses both still looked incredibly weak while both Annie and Mera cleaned off their faces.
Causing both to then hesitantly look to Annie as if they didn't know what to think about what had just happened.
Before then ultimately choosing not to say anything and look to each other as if still contemplating what to do, they had been beaten senseless before however, it was quick and Annie didn't go all out until now.
Causing the young prince to then weakly whisper into Molly's ear causing her to then nod having understood his thoughts having had them herself before then being cut off.
Causing Annie to then both quickly and carefully hug both, surprising both as well having not had enough time to gather their senses causing Annie to then helplessly shake her head.
"I'm so sorry Aurel, Molly! I-I hurt my celestial teddy bears, I-I can't believe that was a good idea and the way I suppressed and terrified you.. It's unacceptable! I-I haven't apologized for enough"
"Especially to you Aurel.. It's been months but I still remember how irresponsible I was! I'm truly sorry for being an awful mommy, and I could say the same for you Molly.."
"I should have been more of a mommy at times! I-I should have known better especially with two of my precious celestial teddy bears! I-I don't expect you two to forgive me immediately.."
"But I still wish to apologize for not being the mommy you two needed when you needed one!"
Annie heartbreakingly apologized with a helplessly apologetic yet playful expression having realized it's not 'always' the wisest to allow such things to fester.
Especially if it's only 'your' own belief that they would 'supposedly' always get stronger from it.
And yet still noticed that the effects were in fact opposite making her feel quite irresponsible especially as a mommy of all things.
Having had also imagined that she should have confronted such scenarios instead and explained her own original intention much earlier after the fact rather than allowing for such misunderstandings to happen like her mother had done with her.
Causing both the young prince and Molly to then calm down before then shaking their heads surprising Annie causing the young prince to then close his eyes having had felt actually traumatized along with poor Molly.
A Sacred Realm's Bloodlust is far too difficult to control meaning Annie hadn't and coupled with that short burst of Sacred Realm that destabilized their mana they had in fact felt true terror closely compared to seeing your own death.
Causing the young prince to then hesitantly nod before then opening them once more.
"Ann-Mommy was scary.. we-we're scared of mommy bu-but we love mommy so that's ok? Momm-Mommy was strong.. bu-but mommy needs to pa-pay with cuddles! May-Maybe then w-we wouldn't be scared of mommy?"
The young prince worriedly confessed causing Molly to then worriedly nod as well surprising Annie causing her heart to explode with a mixture of emotions before then quickly nodding.
"Wh-While we cuddle, Mer-Mera can make cheesecake! Then Mera can join herself along with these precious teddy bears! I-I'll tell you stories about when I was your age and Bradley wanted to cuddle all the time! An-And the time Celes slipped and fell into the bath!"
Annie happily added with an adorably excited yet playful expression causing Mera to then gently nod while Annie tried to untraumatized both the young prince and Molly causing Iva to then adorably giggle and Ayla to then pout even more.
All the while Nox was confused as to why they were so 'mentally' weak, especially Molly who had been through many similar instances and should have gotten used to it.
Before then remembering Molly was in fact a child and a human one at that causing her to then shrug seeing as she was now one as well or whatever race that strange boy called it or if he had called it anything at all causing Nox to then once again give up.
After a warm bath and eating to regain previously lost blood Amber had soon discovered what happened before then adorably reprimanding Annie to the next dreamworld before then finally giving up and giving both the young prince and Molly calming potions.
After drinking the calming potions the young prince had soon reverted to his original Elf form surprising everyone especially since he was in his ancestral form the entire time and even Mera and Ayla hadn't seen his true appearance before.
Causing both Ayla and Iva to then adorably nibble on his ears causing him to then weakly blush having no strength to pout before then being cut off.
"Hm-Hmph! S-So you were hiding something from your most faithful and loved queen of light! A-As punishment more allowance t-to fix the betrayal!"
Ayla shamelessly ranted causing the young prince to then weakly nod before then being cut off causing Ayla to then happily smile before then being cut off herself causing Mera to then gently shake her head.
"Ayla don't play with him too much? He needs the rest! As for 'little' Auri he's no doubt an Elfin.. I wondered why my and his face looked familiar"
"He's also quite beautiful and gentle so I'd imagine he takes after his mother Aldra was it? Royal Elves typically always keep these qualities I'd imagine?"
Mera gently asked causing both Annie and Amber to then nod as well as Molly; however, she did so weakly.
"Al-Aldra is the best mommy.. I-I love her.. and I love mommy Annie too but Annie is bully more than mommy"
Molly weakly mumbled before then burying her head in Annie's chest followed by the young prince surprising everyone causing Amber to then helplessly nod in agreement.
Causing Annie to then helplessly nod as well having have felt when it comes to mommies Aldra and Marjorie are ranked at the top.
They are the true mommies and their presence alone could calm a crying child, that's probably why the young prince barely cried and clung to her as a baby.
And still does it even now causing Annie to then jealously pout swearing to take mommy lessons with those two as her expert instructor.
After what felt like a chaotic break day everyone had decided to sleep in causing Kaylan who had left after the incident and into the young prince's bloodline to prevent any more damage.
Causing her to then slightly shake her head before then nibbling on sleeping Katie's ear.
After the final day had ended everyone had still decided to sleep in before then finally waking up causing everyone to then happily take a bath, eat breakfast, and prepare.
However, before the young prince, stopped time he made plans with Iva and the others in mind.
Causing Iva to then adorably nod causing the young prince to then finally unfreeze time before then excitedly opening a rift for Annie and Molly to visit Celes.
While he had soon opened a rift himself directly to the others followed only by Amber while the others prepared themselves.
Immediately after leaving the rift, the young prince had soon tearily pounced on both Stella and Selphie.
Surprising both causing both Lilly and Selphie to then quickly feel the changes within the young prince causing Stella to then happily hug the young prince even tighter.
Before then being cut off causing Amber to then helplessly smile before then explaining the five months of grueling training.
And some of what had transpired surprising both all the while Stella wasn't really listening and instead happily hugging the young prince.
Causing Selphie to then adorably pout the most righteous pout all the while causing Lilly to then frown.
Having thought even for the young prince it was too much before then playfully shaking her head causing the young prince to then tearily whisper into Selphie's ear.
Causing Selphie's heart to then immediately melt before then adorably nodding causing the young prince to then tearily nod as well before then kissing Stella's cheek repeatedly having missed everyone so much.
And finally had the chance to rid himself of the severe separation anxiety before then quickly pouncing on Lilly surprising her causing her to then playfully shake her head before then being cut off.
"I-I missed Lilly and Selphie an-and Stella so much! I-It hurt so much! Sta-Stay with me forever!"
The young prince frustratingly cried his heart out causing all three to then reassuringly hugging followed by Amber.
Causing the young prince to then immediately remember something before then whispering into both Lilly's and Selphie's ears causing both to then reassuringly nod.
Causing Selphie to then kiss his cheek and wake him up causing Stella to then adorably pout while Amber had decided to explain even more having wanted to brag about the young prince and tell everyone what they missed surprising all three.
After waking up the young prince immediately kissed everyone's cheeks before then squeezing through and quickly putting on his slipper.
Causing him to then teary rush out into the hall before then being greeted by Gemma causing the young prince to then immediately hug her.
Surprising her after noticing the young prince's start causing her to then reassuringly shake her.
"My prince everything's going to be ok, I'd imagine you had another nightmare and didn't wish to disturb the other's?"
Gemma worriedly asked causing the young prince to then tearily nod before then hugging her even tighter causing her to then reassuring nod before then being cut off.
"I-I need Mommy!"
The young prince quietly cried causing Gemma's heart to then melt before then reassuringly nodding and sending a mental message before then quickly receiving one back causing Gemma to then happily nod once more.
Before then taking the young prince to Aldra's and Bradley's room and leaving, allowing the young prince the honor of opening their door himself causing him to then tearily nod before then finally opening the door and rushing inside.
Surprising both the still sleepy Aldra and Bradley causing the young prince to then immediately pounce on Aldra causing her to then gently shake her head before then being cut off.
"I-I missed mommy so much! I-I wanna stay with mommy for-forever ever! I-I love mommy! Momm-Mommy's the prettiest a-and the cutest! Mommy is the best mommy! An-And Daddy too! I missed mommy and daddy!"
The young prince loudly cried his heart out having missed his mommy so much and for so long surprising both even more causing both to then worriedly feel his forehead.
Before then finally noticing his mana surprising both Aldra and Bradley even more.
Having wondered how the young prince had become a High-Level Grandmage of all things before then being cut off once more.
Causing the young prince to then tearily whisper everything that happened excluding the godly aspects, Amber's breakthrough, his ancestral bloodline, and several other minor things.
All the while still including Annie's final test of all things into Aldra's ear surprising her causing her heart to then surprisingly break.
Before then reassuringly hugging the young prince even more surprising Bradley by her reaction before then being cut off himself.
"My sweet prince.. to think you've been through so much? I'd imagine Annie had good intentions, but no matter how good they were, they were still very irresponsible.. I'm so sorry you've suffered such things"
Aldra tearily reassured before then hugging the young prince even tighter causing the young prince to only cry even harder.
"Momm-Mommy! Mommy! I-It hurt so much! I-I wanted to st-stop b-but I wanted to be stronger for mommy! I-I only need mommy!"
The young prince adorably cried causing Aldra's heart to then melt before then gently cuddling the young prince followed by Bradley.
