"WHY THE HELL IS THE DOCTOR TAKING SO LONG TO COME?!" Yug yelled the millionth time as he sat near his son freaking out.
His hands were shivering, and his face was red, while Simon was lying on the bed.
And seeing his father's reaction, Simon internally sighed, how is going to tell his father that it is his soul that is damaged and not his body?
The doctor came a few minutes later and checked Simon, while Yug was gently patting Simon's head while holding his hand, the doctor did the examination and even checked for injury.
"What did you eat yesterday? Young master?" Simon didn't know what to say, how can he remember what he ate a decade ago, so he pressed his lips together, and thankfully Nancy answered on his behalf.
And then the doctor found nothing, which made him really confused, "Lord." he said to Yug, "I have not found anything wrong young master, there is no poison or any abnormality in his food and even the surrounding items don't have any abnormality.
Yug then stood up and glared at the doctor, "So you are saying that my son is lying? He coughed. blood how is that even normal!" Yug yelled and the doctor, who also stood up, had his head down.
"But my lord, if I haven't found anything, then how can I... diagnose him with anything?"
Yug was getting more and more pissed he took out his sword and the doctor was already on his knees, "My lord, my lord please, have mercy I seriously have not found any abnormality, maybe you could have the temple have a look..."
And no sooner than he said this, Yug's face turned red, "You!!! idiot! I will..."
Before Yug could harm the poor doctor scared for his life, Simon stopped him, "father... please don't get angry."
Simon said and raised his hand further, Yug took a deep breath and kept his sword aside before he grabbed Simon's hand and sat beside him before glaring at the doctor, "Get out."
The doctor got up and was about to leave but Yug stopped him again, "And if anyone in the empire found out that my son is sick... then get ready to face the consequences... is that understood?"
The doctor nodded, "Yes, my lord."
"Leave," Yug said, and the doctor was gone, while Yug was still freaking out, Simon's temperature was not going down and he looked in pain.
Well, he was in pain.
A lot of pain.
Simon felt his insides burn. His nerves were constricting, and he felt that his head was going to split he needs to find a way to heal his soul... and to find the way he needs to go to the temple of Nirvana.
And the Temple of Nirvana is a place where not many people are allowed.
Nancy came and stood beside Simon's bed, "Master....should we listen to the physician and visit the temple?"
"No." Was Yug's firm reply, "it's too dangerous and risky." Nancy didn't say anything after that.
Under normal circumstances, Simon or anyone would have asked what was wrong with going to the god's house to the temple, in the past, his father never allowed him to go anywhere near the temple, near the royals, or near the nobles.
When Simon asked, he only said it was dangerous and never told him the reason, and till his death, Yug never told him why was he so scared to let Simon be free.
In his last life he misunderstood Yug. , he thought that Yug wanted to control him or misuse his blessing but he was so wrong, in reality, Yug wanted to protect him from the people who were after him.
"Father...why can't we go to the temple?" Simon asked, and Yug looked at him with a very complicated expression.
"Rest...don't think about anything else," Yug said and gulped, he couldn't understand the fact why in the world Simon is even sick? isn't Simion special? the favored ones are immune to any disease, then why did Simon fall sick?
The doctor said that it's nothing physical then is it related to something else? Will he really have to go to the temple?
No.
If he goes to the temple, God knows what will happen if those people found out that Simon is the favored one, then...no.
Simon could feel Yug's hand becoming cold as Yug was patting him on the forehead and also holding his hand and this time he understood very well what Yug was thinking.
Yug does not want to go to the temple but Simon needs to go to the temple, as the third most powerful person in the empire, Yug's every action is under watch and people will judge whatever he does, even if Yug took him to the temple of Nirvana then people will definitely be suspicious.
But Simon needs to go to that temple. He needs that book.
"Father?" Simon said slowly.
"Yes?" Yug asked as he changed the towel on his forehead.
Simon gulped. He just hoped that this trick will work on Yug, 'please, goddess, helps me fool him,' "Um...I...I had a dream..."
"Hm..."Yug said.
"About this person...um...Sean..." Yug paused for a moment and looked at his son.
"Sean?"
"Yeah...father..." Simon said looked like it was working now. He has to say a more solid lie," um...there was this place, um...a broken building...with three big statues and goddess ankh was in the middle...
And it was beside the ocean...something like Nirvana."
Nancy spoke, "Lord, maybe master is talking about Temple of Nirvana."
"Dad, please, can we go there?" Simon said and Nancy added,
"Lord, maybe this is some kind of message."
Simon smiled internally, his nanny is the best, when he will grow up he will have her as his kid's nanny as well, and he will make sure that this woman lives a peaceful life, after all, she was making his work easier.
Yug also thought about it, the temple of Nirvana...the home of Sean, the founder... Sean was favored by the goddess and so his Simon...so is this really some kind of hint?
After all, from what he heard, the goddess can do anything for her favored one.
"Damian!" Yug called and as soon as he did, Damian was in front of him.
Damian Declan was Yug's knight, he came from a very prestigious family of knights that have served the kingdom and are known for their loyalty, the Declan family produced the strongest knights in the entire empire and the Declan family was loyal to the duke Amedio.
Since it was the Amedio Dukedom that had recognized the Declan family's talent and helped them rise up
"Yes my lord," Damian said, he a handsome lad with a height similar to that of Yug, with firm eyes and a calm expression, but Simon how sinister and dangerous this knight was.
He was not known as the terror of the night for no reason.
"Prepare a disguise...we are going to the temple of Nirvana, and we will set out today...and also go and summon the Marquis...hurry up!"
"Yes, My Lord."
If Simon could, he would have jumped with joy, but right now, he only smiled as he was lying on the bed.
Once his soul is healed...Simon has to work on controlling his powers and at the same time...he looked at his father and smiles he needs to reunite Yug with his lover.
