"It looks like your Fox is badly hurt hurry I will treat her, don't bother ignoring me treating your fox is important right now" saying Hilbert went near the cabinet where Jane stores her medicine, he took a bunch of items and placed them on the table and glanced at Darren
Although Darren wants to retreat with his fox is not giving him a chance of its increasing whimpers, he placed his fox on the table and saw Hilbert's experienced movements
Darren frowned his eyebrows in confusion as he voiced "since when have you learned to treat animals"
Hilbert who was bandaging the fox paused a little before chuckling he answered "since wanting your sister to acknowledge me, at that time I pestered her to read with me and practice with me to spend time with her"
Now Darren expressed his disdain towards Hilbert purely on his face with no words needed after his fox was treated, he took it in his arms and exited the room without speaking
Hilbert was laughing loudly at his brother-in-law's actions, he shook his head a little when he suddenly remembered seeing Darren's familiar was earlier during his audience with his father, that meant his mother must have dispatched her subordinates to catch the Fox
Hilbert crossed his arms and stood near the table thinking deeply,
in the system space Estelle woke up from her nap when she heard the banging on her door, she woke up grumpily and opened the door to see the usual grumpy face of Rex flexing at her with an eyebrow raised, Estelle was still in half-sleep seeing him she just closed the door at his face went to bed, but the banking on the door increased and her sleep wore off,
she stood up yanking her bedsheet she opened the door and stood exactly as Rex earlier while Rex crossed his arms and tapped his foot on the ground in impatience as he breathed heavily, Estelle can swear she saw the dragon huffing from his nostrils in his human form and decided not to get tortured by him she unwillingly spoke to him
"What is it, grumpy gramps?"
"Huh!! what is it? did you forget you were supposed to wake up today"
Estelle stood straight and widen her eyes yup she forgot but she won't let Rex nag on her for forgetting she retorted at him "of course, I remember how o can forget something important!! I was waiting for Elmo and Evelyn to come back Hmpf!!"
Rex enraged by her words pointed his forefinger and huffed loudly "lie!! you lie!! I will show you my might at your next training"
"Huh!! show who is afraid?" Estelle scoffed at him
Evelyn and Elmo who were standing at some distance went quiet as they observed the banter, they shook their heads at them identically in a helpless manner,
Evelyn coughed to break the stare fight she looked at both of them with her big round eyes adding an effect of the cute and bright halo towards them, Estelle and Rex were suckers for the cute things not to mention Evelyn a lovely cute kid and with the effect, their hearts were pierced with cuteness they both glanced at each other and then turned away awkwardly.
Elmo bought a tray full of their drinks and set them on the table before gesturing for them to gather "we have some stuff to discuss kids"
"I am not a kid!!"
"I am 20 years old"
"Yes, big brother Elmo"
Elmo checked as he turned to Rex saying "Then stop behaving like one"
"I....ahh just forget it what's the next move"
four of them were sipping their drinks and were discussing what to do after Estelle woke up from her coma
while this was going on,
In Ryker's Mansion
Darren was eyeing Estelle who was getting treated by his sister, he then glanced at the Knights and the silver wolf who was eyeing him along with the maid Silvia, Hilbert entered the room then he chuckled a little seeing the silver wolf he raised an eyebrow at Sir Gilton,
Sir Gilton took a deep breath and turned his head away from Hilbert's gaze 'please just don't ask me anything'
Jane frowned when she saw the number of people in the room she sighed and said "the patient needs air to breathe, not tension please leave the room"
Then she turned to Silvia and asked her to bring the medicine for today, with that everyone left the room including the silver wolf whom Sir Gilton treated like an ancestor refused to leave at first but then after a lot of persuading from Sir Gilton it left.
Estelle's room restored the quietness but not for long the Darren Ryker who was supposedly left earlier came again, he went near the bed he observed Estelle for a while before unfolding a bamboo sheet, on the bamboo sheet is the magic circle they encountered with Zyon Kingdom spy, a thought ran in his mind which he desperately not wants to be true
he then tried to infuse the magic circle on Estelle, a bright golden light glowed from her forehead and resonated with the magic circle Darren's eyes widen in fear, but the resonated Magic circle glowed more brightly before backfiring on Darren
he fell to the floor with a thud bumping his head to the table stand near the bed he frowned in pain as he rubbed his head, he heard sounds of gasping he paused a little to concentrate on the sound, then he turned to Estelle who was gasping breathlessly, flustered he sprinted to her and caught her hand while pulling the bell, Estelle tightened her hold on his hand
Darren was trembling with nervousness seeing her gasping loudly, he gulped when he saw her forehead shining with the golden light, he subconsciously leaned his face towards her to confirm the shine, and right when he was inches away from Estelle, she opened her eyes widely with a start
her black eyes were looking straight at his golden hue eyes, she blinked a little and noticed a handsome face looking at her dazedly, the door of the room opened with a bang Silvia and the knights entered the room in tow with Jane and Hilbert
Estelle and Darren looked at them blankly, Hilbert raised an eye giving an evil smirk he coughed a little and said "my dear brother-in-law maybe you should move back a little to let your sister see her condition"
Jane was looking at Estelle in surprise she ignored everyone and went to another side of the bed as she checked Estelle, she titled her head as she found her recovering in complete health, she eyed at her brother who was holding her hand tightly,
