Adias Floryn: Get Back The Kingdom
Section 22: Recovery
"Thea? Wake oy.. Hoayamm.." Said Dias to Thea who was right next to Dias.
"... Hm? It's morning?" Thea slowly opened her eyes little by little and stared at her sister's face for a moment. After that, the two of them got up, and prepared breakfast.
"Thea, until when do you want to stick around. It's been three days. Be present.." Said Dias who was annoyed because every time he wanted to go anywhere was always followed by his clothes which continued to be held by Thea.
"But.. I'm scared." Said Thea who was still traumatized 3 days ago.
Dias felt sorry for Thea's current situation. Because every time he meets a stranger, he immediately gets scared and hides behind him. Even every night he could not sleep well, because of the nightmares he experienced. So Dias had to allow himself to sleep with her.
"Tok-tok-tok.." The sound of knocking on the door from outside. Thea immediately hid behind Dias.
"Yes a minute." Said Dias, then opened the door.
"Heyy, good morning. Have you had breakfast yet?" Said Cyntia who brought provisions to eat together.
"Ah, this is still to make." Dias. It was not surprising to see Cyntia who came so early, because after the kidnapping incident, she immediately came and helped her recovery and also Thea.
"No need to make it, I brought it."
After that, Dias let Cyntia into the living room. Cyntia immediately opened the bag, and arranged it onto the table.
Dias took a plate and spoon. Do not forget to also bring water, then put it on the table. After that, they sat together.
"Thea, if you hang on like this, how will you eat?" Dias. Thea still lingered on Dias' left arm and looked at Cyntia with dislike.
"Hemmm, it's been three days since I stopped by here. You look at me like I'm gonna take your brother."
"....." Thea still looked at him. Although the stranger was afraid, but somehow if there was Cyntia, his brother seemed to be taken from him.
"Just calm down, I'm not going to take your brother. Eat something quiet." Said Cyntia smiling as she picked up rice and side dishes over Thea bowl.
"Now" Cyntia thrust Thea's bowl in front of her. After that Thea accepted it ferociously.
"Eh, anjir.."
Cyntia is a little emotional, but can still try to be patient.
"Good meal." Dias and Cyntia said together, then they ate together.

The situation around the Valinor Kingdom is getting worse. In various parts of the world, there were already many Dungeon Towers that had sprung up, and the tower produced various kinds of monsters that disrupted the civilization of all races.
In addition, in various places there are also many who try to do demon summoning. According to the rumors, for anyone who is a devil worshiper, he will not be attacked by monsters that come out of the dungeon. Because of this, many become devil worshipers and perform heretical rituals like the one that happened at Raftel Academy.
Due to such conditions, the adventurer guild became flooded with missions in various places. Iaros and Iris could not go home as they also had to receive many missions from the guild.
*Elsewhere..
"RAAAWPR!!" A giant white tiger with blue flames enveloping him was trying to free himself from the ice that froze his legs.
"Iaros!! Quickly finish!!" Shouted Iris to Iaros.
"Ice Prison.." A block of ice appeared from below, then the ice froze the tiger's entire body.
"Huhhhh!!" Iaros slashed the ice-cold tiger many times until it broke into pieces.
"Grand.."
"Ah.. Finished too." Iris.
"Okay, let's go home.." Reply Iaros who ran hastily because of his concern for Dias and Thea.
"Where are you running? will we be teleported to the treasure room?"
"Ah, yes. Right too." Iaros Reply.

"So, when do you think Thea will recover?" Ask Dias to Cyntia. Thea had just slept in Dias' lap.
"Hmm.. maybe 1 month away? I don't know.if about psychic problems I don't master it. Maybe I can just make a potion so your sister can sleep peacefully, or reduce her panic."
"Ohh, that's it."
"But Dias, you should know that the psychic is greatly influenced by the circumstances of the surrounding environment. Just like the trauma he experienced, it was also caused by a terrible experience that had been experienced by the sufferer."
"That's. just a little while." Dias pondered for a moment at the thought of Cyntia's words.
"Ohh, so just give him new pleasant experiences, so he can forget his trauma. That right?"
"Well, it's almost like that. The point is often to make Thea so entertained."
"Yeah, just tell me it's a bother. But how is it going?"
"Well, if that's what you think of yourself. I'm gonna open the store first." Cyntia said ending their conversation, then parted and left from there.
"Sister, I'm bored." Said Thea facing her face upwards.
"Hmmm.." Dias thought hard to find something that could be played together.
"If I can't play magic, because I haven't recovered.. Play outside Thea is afraid of strangers. Hm.." Mumbled.
"Well, how about we just cook together?" Said Dias who already knew that Thea really likes to cook.
Hearing that, Thea immediately got up from Dias' lap and stood up with vigor.
After that, Dias took him to the kitchen and checked the ingredients in the cupboard.
"Thea, catch this and wash it." Dias throws the ingredients at Thea and she washes them off. After washing, Thea placed it on the table.
"Okee, it's time to crack.. Yuhu~" Dias said as he pulled out his kitchen knife.
"...." - ".Thea stared at the kitchen knife. He suddenly had cold sweat on his forehead. After that he ducked down in fear and covered his ears with both ears.
Thea recalled the horrifying sight of the elves being held captive with blood pouring out of her hands as a result of the incision from the knife carried by Mr. Sata. In addition, the terrible memory when he was tortured also came out instantly.
"Aaaa.. Aaaaah!!" Thea growled indistinctly with an extremely frightened expression. His hand firmly gripped the messy hair with an irregular breath.
Seeing that, Dias immediately threw away his knife far away and hugged Thea to calm him down.
"I'm sorry, Thea. I was not intentionally. Sorry.." Said Dias while gritting his teeth in anger towards himself.
"I'm stupid.." Dias said in his heart and still hugged Thea until she calmed down.
After being calm enough, Dias immediately took a drink for Thea and put her to bed with a sedative.

*Sore..
"Tok-tok-tok.." There was a knock on the door from outside.
"Yes a minute." Said Dias, then immediately opened the door.
"Excuse Me, Brother.. Thea's there?" Say one of the 3 girls who stopped by her house.
"You who? Thea's friend?" Dias.
"Yes Brother."
Suddenly, Thea raised her head from behind Dias' back.
"They!!" Shouted one of them who looked happy because he saw Thea who was fine. They were all very worried after hearing the demon summoning incident where Thea became a victim in the summoning.
Thea was overjoyed when she saw her friends coming. Thea no longer hid behind Dias' back and greeted them. After that, Dias let them in and sat down in the living room.
"Theaa, I bring a lot of snacks together, you like warm milk, right?" One of his friends named Naura took out all the contents in his bag which turned out to be all snacks and wine-flavored milk drinks.
"Huh, so this is why you're always borrowing my books?" Azka.
"Choose, that's howling. I was the one who just brought one book to class just plain old." Tell Tasya, who then takes the game board out of her bag.
"Okay, you two are school intention or not. Fortunately, there was no raid at all." Reply Azka who patted the jidat.
After that, the four of them played together and joked. Unexpectedly, if Thea could smile like that when there are friends who come to her house. Thea seemed to enjoy playing games with her friends.
I don't think the sky is starting to darken. All of Thea's friends say good-bye and go back to their homes.
"See you later, Thea.." Naura said as she waved her hand. Thea returned the wave of her hand.
"Don't forget to come again" said Dias.
Suddenly Dias recalled Cyntia's words on how to heal Thea's trauma.
"Well, it's almost like that. The point is often to make Thea so entertained." The phrase Cyntia that came to mind was clear to Dias. Because remembering that, Dias finally ran over and stopped their steps.
"What's up, brother?" They were surprised to see the man out of breath from chasing them. This was due to Dias being completely depleted.
"Hosh, hosh.. That, if you can, you look at Thea every day."
"Well, if that's the truth." Naura, who hesitated, accepted the request.
"Just relax, you want pocket money? Learn magic directly with the experts? or whatever it is? I will definitely give you. Anyway, you guys have to see Thea every day. How's it?" Bargain Dias to them.
"Hooh, the problem is that my allowance is quite high, Kak." Challenge Naura to Dias.
"How many?"
"200 Coins."
"Here I am." Reply Dias slightly hesitated. Finally, they agreed to come to Thea's house every day.
"Ah yes sis, if I invite friends here to visit Thea how sis? Can you?" Ask Naura.
"No way, he's still traumatized by strangers. He would be frightened when meeting people who were not close to him." Reply Dias.
They all nodded in understanding, and immediately went back to their respective homes.
"Grain, I could have been with my own underclassman." Dias muttered while walking home.
*Meanwhile, in the Kingdom of Farnesse..
"Sir, they both died during the procession of summoning the Demon King." Said the white-haired man while looking down giving a sign of respect to the King.
"Dead? How come?" Reply to the surprised King Julian. Though the two people who were sent to infiltrate Raftel Academy were professionals in carrying out their duties.
"They were both killed by the red-haired boy who was an expert at using fire magic. He was also assisted by Princess Lily, the son of King Obeyron of the Rifendell Kingdom."
"That fire? Oh. it turns out he's back. Haha. After waiting for 5 years, I finally had a chance to finish off the descendants of King Vyros. Using my own hands! Haha." Reply to King Julian with a wicked laugh.
