At first glance, he appeared to be dead since he was so pale like a paper and he had his eyes closed. If he hadn't moved his hand a bit, Althea will really think that Maria had electrocuted him to his death. She the admitted herself fully inside towards the tub and crouched down to her knees and saw his face closely.
"How is it? You don't look quite alright. " Althea leaned over the tub and Xenon readily opened his eyes and turned to her direction. It wasn't unlike him to notice her presence just now. Normally, he would have already know that someone was in the same room as him the moment the door was opened.
