“They are fine… Right.?”
Getting no response from the old man, Kyle’s grip loosened as he took a step back with a blank expression.
‘Why isn’t father saying anything.’
He looked at the servants standing not so far from them with a throbbing headache.
“Where are my brothers?”
The same question, but this time Kyle’s voice was calmer and face expressionless.
Among the servants, an old man wearing the butler outfit walked toward Kyle with hurried footsteps.
He gazed at Kyle but then lowered his head not daring to meet those scary eyes. As the butler of the house the old man had been watching over Kyle from a young age, that’s why he knew how the young master was always lazy and carefree.
Now seeing Kyle exuding such a powerful aura, he wondered how just in a month the young master changed so much.
Two days ago when the monsters attacked, the situation was very dire. Some of the relatives suggested connecting Kyle who was at the Royal Academy to ask for help, but Kyle’s father Baron Ohan rejected the idea.
As he knew Kyle’s talent was only (B)-Rank even if they told him about the situation he won’t be able to do anything to help. Also because Baron Ohan knew if they told Kyle he would rush over without caring about anything else.
The butler sighed, he knew now that Kyle was here they couldn’t hide anything from him.
“Young master Please follow me.”
Without saying anything else Kyle quietly followed behind the old man who always nagged him during his childhood.
Soon they passed from the once beautiful garden filled with broken branches of trees.
Inhaling the lingering stench of blood from the surrounding, Kyle glanced at the blood filled grass and the few monsters lying around lifelessly.
He didn’t say anything. Even if he wanted to words didn’t come out from his throat.
After passing through the large empty corridor they arrived in front of the largest room inside the building.
The butler turned around and faced Kyle with a serious expression,
“Young Master, it’s great to see that you are doing fine.”
“Due to the sudden outbreak of monsters both Master Neon and Master Ray fought together with some other powerful individuals present inside the city. They were also able to safely evacuate half of the citizens.”
The butler looked at Kyle who had now his gaze fixed on the room doors.
Kyle wanted to hurry inside to see the situation but waited patiently for the old man to finish speaking.
“Everything was fine, the reinforcement also arrived after a few hours but… suddenly for some reason the leader of the monsters used a lethal poison skill on the group of people fighting at the front.”
“It was an (A)-Rank python, including Master Neon and Masters Ray two other people got injured by the sudden attack.”
“At first it was nothing serious but just after three hours all of them suddenly went into coma. Right now some healers from the Capital City are trying their best to save them.”
After finishing his words the butler turned around and opened the door.
With slow footsteps, Kyle staggered inside the room. Glancing at the four beds present inside, he finally saw the two familiar faces he had been wanting to see.
Their breathing was heavy and their complexiones were pale, strange black color veins were spreading all around their bodies.
‘What can I do to help.’
Kyle stood motionless in front of the door and watched the healers who were trying their best to stabilize the patients, but it seemed nothing was working.
‘I can’t do anything.’
For the first time Kyle felt useless. He glanced at his palms.
‘If I was stronger maybe this wouldn’t have happened.’
‘It’s my fault.’
Even though he was more mature than his peers, he was only 16 years old. His brothers were fighting death in front of him and the only thing he could do was to watch them in pain.
With trembling hands and a blank expression, he looked at the cold hand grabbing his shoulder.
“Father.”
Baron Ohan stood beside Kyle with wet eyes, he tapped his shoulder tightly.
“They will be fine.”
Kyle who was on the verge of crying controlled the tears trying to leave his eyes. He glanced at his father and clenched his fists tightly.
‘What am I doing? They are fighting with everything they have. How can I lose hope.’
After getting some courage from the old man Kyle’s heart felt calmer. He gazed at the four people lying on different beds and a beautiful green light flashed through Kyle’s eyes before it completely disappeared. freёwebnoѵel.com
Meanwhile, the butler who was standing behind the father-son duo looked at the new face Kyle brought with him.
He walked toward Nine and after knowing Nine was Kyle’s classmate and friend the butler apologized and ordered some servants to lead Nine toward a clean room.
But Nine rejected the offer and decided to complete the mission they took before leaving the Academy. After telling the butler to convey his message to Kyle he left to look for the mission herbs.
…..
After standing for an hour, Baron Ohan and Kyle both went to the study to wait for the healers to bring some news.
Time was trickling very slowly as Kyle paced around inside the study. He wasn’t able to sit still nor was he able to eat or drink anything.
Finally, after one more day of waiting, a healer who seemed to be the head of the group walked out of the room.
But the news he brought wasn’t something Kyle or anyone wanted to hear.
After trying their best and using one of the best healing potions, the healers were able to stabilize the patient’s condition but it was only temporary.
Even if they used one of the highest grade healing potions it won’t work because the python poison was fast reacting. The moment it entered their bodies it spread inside the veins and damaged the heart.
According to the healers if they used high-level potions regularly on the patients to stabilize their condition, the patients can live up to eight months maximum.
The news was like a bolt of lightning as Baron Ohan lumped on the study chair and Kyle slammed his fist on the wall.
But Kyle wasn’t going to accept it, there’s no way he can just let his brothers die.
With a sweaty forehead, he looked at the healer with a crazed expression.
“Are you sure there’s no way left? I believe there’s something we can do to save them.”
“Dam it! Anything is fine as long as there’s hope. I am willing to pay any price.”
The healer looked at Kyle who seemed to have lost his cool. After thinking for a while and remembering something impossible the healer hesitated,
“There’s a way.”
Kyle glanced at the healer with ragged breathing. It doesn’t matter what it was as long as he could save them, he was willing to do anything.
“What is it.”
