The fifth old lady, Han Soyou, didn't seem so excited as she watched Eric Romano being taken away. The amount of blood he shed was proof that he had suffered great damage. Apollo soon approached her.
"You went too far."
"D-what are you talking about?"
"You almost killed him"
After acquiring the musical wave skill, he had never seen a person take so much damage. It almost made him think that his attack ability had increased in damage. He was ashamed of Apollo's words and asked, "He... did he really have little internal energy?"
He felt much better as he knew his attack had worked, but it was impossible to resist his attack for so long without much internal energy, which he couldn't believe. Apollo nodded.
"Yes. Very little."
"What?"
"I didn't have much internal energy. I was barely 2 years old for her."
"That can't be... how can one resist my attack with that minuscule internal energy?"
Only about thirty students resisted his attack, and even some of them were on their knees or vomiting from so much enduring. In addition, those students had much more internal energy.
"He should have fainted a long time ago." The fifth old lady insisted.
"It had already suffered internal damage for quite some time. It was his will that kept him going." Apollo commented.
"His will? Do you think that makes sense? With doubtful eyes the old woman replied.
"... It's beyond our imagination."
He almost made Apollo want to take him as his apprentice if he wasn't a son of that woman. However, Apollo was a realist. He had no intention of taking an individual as controversial as his own apprentice.
"HAHA! That's interesting. He just endured it, huh? ". Guardian of Peace Ramish spoke amicably, although he was usually not interested in other matters.
Apollo replied annoyed: "It's none of your business. Go and drink as much as you want. "
"Bah, I was leaving anyway without you talking to me, redhead."
"Fucking drunk."
Ramish spat out and walked away from the stage. Both were guardians, but they didn't get along at all.
"Well, either way, I didn't have much internal energy and no problem. And for what you did... will be reported to the Lord."
"... Understood."
Hang Soyu was still not convinced, but she couldn't say anything more because of the warning she had already received.
He then walked away and Apollo turned to the students crawling on the training ground.
'Ugh... what should I do now? '
I couldn't go on to the next step with this situation.
Behind the training ground was the main building of the academy. On the second floor was the first aid room, and Cain, Abel's apprentice, was here. He had just arrived at the office on his master's orders last night. I was excited to see as many patients as possible within the academy to gain more experience.
That's when someone started banging on the door.
"Doctor! Patients!" A loud shout was heard from the other side of the door
"Already? Go ahead!" I hadn't seen so many patients recently as all the giant forces of the Academy were busy training their former troops and were in peacetime.
'This academy is great! '
I was anxious at the thought of seeing many patients. When the door opened, two academy staff members walked in with the patient. It was Eric Romano who was soaked in blood.
"What! What kind of test puts a man in such a state?! "
This amount of blood could only come from fatal sword wounds. The staff members shook their heads and replied, "You have suffered serious internal damage. He has almost no internal energy, so the Bloody Guardian has asked you to take special care of him."
"IS THIS because of internal damage?" It had been ten years since he was the apprentice of the famous doctor of the Demon Cult. I had seen many patients, but I had never seen so much blood from a patient with internal wounds.
Well, now it's all yours. We will continue on our way.
"Ah, okay."
The staff knew they had things to do and that they were needed, so they quickly left the room. However, one of the staff members paused curiously. Another staff member, who was his superior, scolded him on the spot.
"We are busy! Let's go!"
"Uh, hm. It's nothing."
He felt that he saw a smile on Eric's face, but he pushed his thoughts aside. After the staff left, Cain sat next to Eric and began to control him.
"Mmm…"
Eric opened his eyes slightly and looked at Cain. It felt so painful when he was on the training ground. He was thinking about consuming a healing pill that was in his ring where he found the Imperial Devil Scripture.
'I didn't think about this...'
He realized this while being taken to the medical room, so he put aside consuming a healing pill. He just decided to let the doctor attend to him.
"Fast, irregular heartbeat... He must have received a large amount of internal damage."
Cain came to the conclusion after checking Eric. However, it was still strange to have let out so much blood.
"Not even biting your tongue can do this."
Cain then walked to his desk to get some needles when someone broke into his office.
"Oops! Shitt!"
Cain was surprised that he fell to the ground on his butt. He turned to the man who had entered. He was a middle-aged man with flushed cheeks and a bottle of liquor.
"Guardian of the Peace?" Huh? Why are you here? And why are you here? I thought you should be at the ceremony? " Cain bombarded him with questions.
"Hah, then you are the academy doctor this time?" Ramish did not answer Cain and kept asking his own questions. Cain sighed because he knew Ramish was this kind of man.
"A little guy came to the big leagues then, huh?" Ramish mocked Cain.
"Puaj. So why are you here? I hope it's not YOU who was injured." Cain counterattacked.
"... Oh, is that sarcasm?" A smile adorned Ramish's face.
"Hahaha, of course not."
Ramish then looked away from Cain and turned to the bed. Then he smiled with interest.
"Wow? Look at this brat. Interesting boy."
Ramish then approached Eric Romano who was in bed. Eric became frustrated.
'Q-what? Why is he here suddenly? '
He panicked that the Guardian of Peace himself had come to the office, thinking he might have realized he was acting all along.
'... Curse. '
"Why are you pretending to be asleep? " Ramish asked briefly.
Eric felt his heart sink. Then, an unknown force lifted him out of bed. He could not move because he had not yet been healed, but the internal energy sent by Ramish immobilized him upwards.
"If you keep pretending, I will slap you"
Eric had to wake up. Then he saw the drunken man who had been on stage. Eric frowned and endured the fury, that he would be threatened like this.
Ramish laughed, showing his yellowish teeth.
"Hahahaha! Aren't you interesting?"
Ramish laughed for a while and continued: "Any experienced cultivator can see through you whether you are awake or not just by listening to the sound of your breathing, kid."
