Guild Master Blood Wolf carried Dn who was struggling as he was enduring the pain of his shed chest. Pavilion Head Ggher and Garden Owner Elmer was evacuating the employees of the Vigor Hotel. The fire from the explosion was quickly spreading. There were some that was in critical condition as they experienced some 1st-degree to 2nd-degree burns. It was a good thing that there were only a few who were in critical condition and the most employees were stationed on the second and ground floors.
The explosion was only a diversion of Andrew for him to buy enough time to escape but the explosion was strong enough to be able to harm a 6th level of Spirit Veins Realm. That is why it was still able to cause a considerable amount of damage to the hotel and cause arge amounts of people to be injured or suffer burns of different degrees.
The two giants were not so heartless as to let this people suffer this type of pain and injustice of losing their jobs. They first rescued all the employees that are found within the 3rd floor. The explosion caused havoc as it continued to spread and ze upwards. It continued its path down to the 3rd floor but it was a good thing that the people evacuating were able to meet the two giants shortly after the mes descended to the third floor.
After some time, the forces of the three giants was able to arrive in time and helped in the rescue of all the employees. After which, Garden Owner Elmer and the there two giants went to the Misty Herb Garden because there, Dn would be treated. Along the way, Dn finally lost consciousness because of severed blood loss. His consciousness faded as his vision darekened.
When the three arrived at the Misty Herb Garden, they immediately ced Dn on a room that was seemingly like an emergency room. Dn was ced in a reclining tform as Garden Owner Elmer tasked his medical assistants to remove Dn''s clothes. The assistant obeyed and changed Dn''s clothes. When they took off Dn''s clothes, the wound that cut across his chest was fully disyed. When Garden Owner Elmer saw this his brows narrowed, he saw how the wound was being quickly infected by something. He quickly deduced that Dn was poisoned by Andrew when he shed the sword.
"That bastard sure is cunning." Elmer Green rebuked that vile man who even risked the lives of his employees whom were currently hospitalized in his Misty Herb Garden.
Aside from being a Mystical Magnate, Garden Owner Elmer was first a Herbal Doctor. His skills was so refined to the extent he was recognized as one of the Three Giants. Elmer Green was further recognized when he made his own faction, the Misty Herb Garden which manipted the herb and medicine flow of the Soaring Cloud City and is known to be the best business on hospitalization within the city.
Garden Owner Elmer began the operation as soon as he finished sanitizing his hands. He wore gloves and a disposableb coat made form silk. He assigned his male assistants to disinfect Dn''s wound and cleanse it for the application of the medicinal liquid he was making. He concocted medicinal liquid whichposed of 8 different herbs that were effective for healing wounds and neutralizing poison. The medicinal liquid was quite effective when it was applied as it lessened the rate of infection. The poison was not thatplex to Elmer that is why he was able to quickly concoct a antidote for it.
Elmer Green quickly regted Dn''s condition. The medicine he applied to Dn had a ingredient that had a simr effect to that of an anesthesia. So when it sipped it into the wound, he directly stitched up the wound and cleanly finished stitching the wound after several minutes. He checked for Dn''s vitals and upon assuring he was in good condition, he left Dn in the care of his nurses to send Dn to a room to rest as he checked for the condition of the victims of the explosion in Vigor Hotel.
After 12 hours from the operation, Dn awoke from his slumber and found himself in a unfamiliar room. He checked for the wound in his chest that Andrew inflicted and saw a stiched wound that spanned from his left shoulder to the right side of his hips. He was stunned when he saw the wound was quickly showing signs of recovery but he knew this was because of him being thrice stronger than an average human granting him faster recovery.
"It seems like I still need to grow stronger or I might not be able to keep up with other geniuses." Dn felt that he was not progressing enough. His strength was trivial whenpared to Andrew. Andrew was in possession of high level techniques that he was not able to ess. He felt like he needed to work twice or thrice as hard in order to be able to triumph against his peers to be able to crowned the strongest genius.
Dn''s thoughts were right because if he was to fight a genius from the capital like Amanda he would be only aughing stock as he would be quickly defeated. Although Andrew and Amanda were disciples of the same masters, it could be clearly seen that Amanda was far more valuedpared to Andrew.
Dn got up and felt some paining from his wounds but he still managed to bnce himself. After walking around, he was able to get used to the pain. When he opened the door to exit the room, he was greeted by three familiar figures.
These three men had a debt of gratitude to Dn as he released them from Andrew''s deception. They were truly bent on repaying Dn by protecting him.
"Friend Dn, you''re up already? Why don''t you rest for a little bit more?" Pavilion Head Ggher urged.
"I''m sorry, sir Ggher, but I must go home. I am worried about how my sister is doing as well as the condition of my restaurant." Dn declined Ggher''s offer.
"Don''t worry about it. Our men are standing guard on your restaurant ever since Elmer finished curing you. So, just head back to the room and rx." Guild Master Blood Wolf surprisingly urged Dn to rest. Clearly, he now favored Dn.
"Thank you, sir Blood Wolf, but I cannot rest easy if I do not see it for myself. Please let me go." Dn really wanted to see how things are for himself.
"You, ungrateful brat! Here, I was showing my goodwill to you and you straightforwardly decline it?!" Guild Master Blood Wolf was pissed when he saw Dn decline his offer.
"I''m sorry, sir." Dn apologized and bowed.
"It''s fine. Let him be. We can just have some people guard him until he fully recovers. Would that be alright, Dn?" Garden Owner Elmer suggested.
"Absolutely. Thank you so much, sir Elmer!" Dn was absolutely grateful to Elmer''s leniency towards him.
"Ugh, okay then." Blood Wolf could only unwillingly ept.
"It''s decided. We will each have assigned a guard as strong as a 11th level Awakened Spirit Realm Expert." Pavilion Head Ggher said.
"Agreed!" The other two replied.
"Thank you very much, Sirs. I will not forget this favor!" Dn thanked them wholeheartedly.
The three simply nodded. After their conversation, Dn was escorted back at dawn to the Gardenford Restaurant by three strong Awakened Spirit Realm experts. Dn was d that nothing happened to his sister and employees.
"It''s- It''s, sir Dn! He''s okay!" Ronald shouted.
"Really?! Where??" Everyone searched until they found a young man slowly walking with a cane while being followed by three guards.
Receiving the news about Dn being severely injured, they could not help but worry so they decided to stay in the restaurant and waited for news. They wanted to make sure that the Gardenford Restaurant was safe as well as their boss'' beautiful little sister.
"SIR DYLAN! WE WERE SO WORRIED ABOUT YOU!" Ronald shouted as he sobbed.
"SIR DYLAN!!!" The emotional ones which was around 30 in numbers charged towards Dn.
"Wait, wait." Dn somewhat panicked. He would be smothered to death by this emotional people who were charging towards him but it was a good thing he had the three guards to protect him.
"Hold it right there!" The three guards blocked all thirty with theirrge bodies.
"Ouch!"
"Uf!"
"Grrr."
"That hurt!"
"Hey, let us through!"
The employees were trying to push forward but to avail. These three were like towers blocking them. But the three guards neglected a little shadow as she passed through the spaces of their feet. When they turned around, they only heard the cute voice of a girl.
"BWIG BROOOOW!!!" The small shadow leaped through the air and gestured a hug to his brother.
"Scarlet, wa- wait- Uff!" Dn was tackled by her sister who yearned for his embrace and this triggered a sudden surge of pain in his body that caused him to fall backwards as his weak body followed Scarlet''s momentum.
"Cri.ti.cal..Hit.." Dn''s face turned slightly pale from the impact of falling as he held a crying child in his embrace.
"I was so worried about you big bro." Scarlet cried.
Hearing this, Dn could not help but feel warmth. He slowly paced his right arm on his sister''s head and caressed it as he said, "It''s okay. Big brother''s fine now. Don''t cry. Big brother''s alright."
"Mmm." Scarlet slowly nodded as tears flowed down her cheeks. Her head was burried onto Dn''s chest as her hair reflected the light of dawn. The sight of these two hugging was a scene to behold. The surrounding people felt like they were watching a y of a big brother and a little sister reuniting.
"Don''t do anything that will harm you, big bro. Please?" Scarlet turned his head and faced Dn teary-eyed.
"Uh... Okay, I promise. Stop crying. I''m alright." Dn consoled his crying sister.
"Okay." Scarlet smiled innocently.
"You can get off of me now. There are still people watching, you know." Dn smiled back.
"Ohhh, sorry." Scarlet shyly said and quickly got off? of Dn and stood up.
"Hahaha it''s okay. There''s nothing to say sorry about. Look at you, you''re all dirty now. Go and take bath while I make breakfast for you." Dn smiled and messed up Scarlet''s hair.
"Yes, big bro." Scarlet agreed and hugged Dn who was sitting on the ground. She then, headed towards the house while she was skipping happily.
Dn watched this happen and he got up. He got up? Earlier, he was struggling to get up but now he was able to get up? What just happened? He checked his shirt and he saw something that shocked him the most!
His wound was now gone!
''What?!''. Dn was utterly dumbfounded. He thought he was hallucinating for a second there. He checked his shirt drenched from tears once more. It was thoroughly gone! Not even the stitches were there, not even a scar!
''Could this be because of.. Scarlet?'' Dn asked himself. He was sure the wound was still there when Scarlet hugged her. But after Scarlet got off him, it was gone.
He felt that Scarlet was bing more and more mysterious as she grew. He felt the urgent need to grow stronger because if he could not and malicious people were to discover Scarlet''s healing prowess, then he would be helpless as those people take advantage of her unique constitution. They may experiment on her, dissect her, and torture her for the sake of gaining her abilities. Dn was unsure of what more abilities Scarlet has hidden on her but he knew that if there were, Scarlet would be in jeopardy. The only way to protect her was to grow stronger!
''I can''t let anybody know about this. Ugh, I''m still too weak to protect Scarlet! I need to be stronger and fast! I think it''s time to use the Second page!'' Dn resolutely thought because he needed to be stronger to protect those who are dear to him.
