Chapter 213 - Archon Draxus At Work

Viceroy observed the situation right now, as they had moved towards Scarlet's private room. She was laid on her bed and was told to close her eyes during the process. "Drax..." Viceroy shortly spoke up as Draxus was preparing a fortune card to use. "Worrywart eh? I understand, but I have to do this... Because..." Draxus stopped his mouth from uttering, and instead gave a telepathy to Viceroy. "She looks like Ernaline, from Zero's memories... And Zero, is still me..." Learning such thing, Viceroy had no choice now but to accept it. He bowed down, and gave Draxus the go ahead. "Thanks, I suggest everyone to stand opposite from my position, I don't want to hit anybody while I'm working." Viceroy moved the royalty to one side, as they observed the beginning of the process. "[Fortune Card VI - Lovers], [Connect our hearts and souls together]." Draxus released extreme aura of concentration from the get go, he didn't want to make a mistake because once he starts curing the blindness, he needs to be perfect in his accuracy. "[Scan]" A quick scan was performed on Scarlet's body, immediately showing multiple magic circles that represent parts of her body. "What is..." The Lunarian leader muttered out words of awe, but he was quickly shunned by Viceroy. "Shh, please let Draxus concentrate..." "What is he doing right now...?" With the voice lowered down to not even be audible to Draxus, Violetta asked Viceroy what he's trying to do. "Three layers in the eyes... Two layers in the voice box... So I have to go through that... That... There... Alright..." "He's trying to memorize every move that he needs to make. The reason is because Miss Scarlet is blindness. Draxus will be connected and will be affected by the very same blindness while he's trying to cure her. And without eyesight, the repair process can go wrong if he gets distracted... So let's stay silent now..." Viceroy quickly explained what Draxus is trying to do as he began the operation.

Twisting a few magic circles carefully and making perfect adjustments at the start. He worked on curing her inability to speak first as he will be able to see the process. After curing such by rewinding bits of time and accelerating the healing process while supplementing with proper magic, he moved his focus towards the eyes. This time, taking a deep breath, he closed his eyes to avoid the pain, and immediately began the operation once more. He first focused on the third layer, rewinding it as he starts to endure the pain. His patient will not be bearing the pain during the process, which was the heaven's call for using [VI - Lovers], but with the caster being in danger of the pain instead, it means only one person is capable of using it.

"He's... Bleeding from the eyes..." "The reason why they're connected is so that the patient won't be the one taking the pain during the operation, but himself..." Draxus remained fully concentrated as he finally make manual repairs to ensure that the eyes heal correctly. After the operation, the bleeding stopped. Draxus opened his eyes slowly and started itching a bit. He brought out a [Remedy Deluxe] potion and drank it in one go, getting rid of the pains in his eyes and throat. "T-That... Should be good enough..." "W-Will she be okay now...?" "Don't rush her too much..." Draxus simply smiled as he shrugged off all the pain. "Great job." Viceroy could only compliment, as he couldn't really do anything at the situation. "I've improved my tolerance to pain, just for situations like this, so I want to make proper use of such thing. And also, you may open your eyes now..." Draxus glanced over to Scarlet, telling her to try opening her eyes. Slowly but surely, she opened her eyes and finally saw light coming into her. She instinctively covered her eyes with her hand as she wasn't used to it yet, but seeing such response was already enough for the royal family to be greatly happy. The three of them hugged Scarlet as she was finally able to see. They expressed their worries and regret on how they were unable to save her, but with things ended well, they shed a few tears.

On the background, a clap was heard. Draxus and Viceroy high-fived on the success of the operation. "You crazy son of a bitch you actually did it." "I'm honored to be memed on, but on a serious note, I'm glad things went well." Viceroy glanced over to the royal family as Scarlet had her eyes towards Draxus. Viceroy signalled Draxus that she wanted to say something, making Draxus go talk to her for a bit. "Your eyes and throat was recently cured, so you don't have to force yourself now. But I know what you want to say... You're welcome..." Draxus smiled as the royalty separated themselves from her for a while to let Draxus speak to her. "More importantly..." Draxus moved his hand to brush her head gently. "Now that you're fully cured, nobody will ever be able to get you through such experience again. I will personally ensure it." "A... Ah..." Scarlet reached out, and immediately clung to Draxus as tears start to flow down. She took notice herself, as not only that she won't ever be alone, but she will be protected from any further harm. "Damn natural... Oh well, Draxus will always be Draxus after all..." Viceroy smiled, as he gave a report to Serkyrio immediately. He then immediately received a call and moved out of the room to report to Serkyrio in detail.

"Draxus has made contact with the seventh heart?" "Yes, and it seems there were some necessary things that had to be done." "It can't be helped if it's like that, but did Draxus say something else before doing so?" "Yes, he said that the person looks like Ernaline from Zero's memories." "It's just as I predicted then... You've done great work, your pay for this mission will be doubled." "Wait, you said seventh, then who is the sixth and last...?" "We still have yet to find the last, but the sixth is a satori shrine maiden from Helvetum. She'll be going here in half a week for a discussion about the alliance." "I see... Thank you for letting me know." "No worries, I know that the original Sentinels don't want Draxus to reexperience terrible love life after his incident with Gayle and Josh. But there's no longer any need to worry about his romantic life." "True, he's already doing great in his current life. I'll cut off the call now." After cutting off the call, Viceroy simply looked out the window as he thought to himself.

"No worry to go through abandonment again... Drax..."
