Almekia Kingdom
70. Jasper - Old Balz (2)

Let alone them, I was confused not to know what I had done. It was as if my body was moving on its own, as if my body had its own will. How could I have this emotional closeness with my grandfather I just met? How can I know his name...

"Young master...Young master Jasper.." the man kept crying and calling my name.

Wait a minute, my name?

It's not my name that he calls. But the other Jasper. He must have thought of me as his late father the King. I remember Diamond telling me that my father's name was Jasper. Only our middle names are different.

Furthermore, if all the dreams and visions I had before were true past events. Then the blond man was the late King's father. Which means my face and face are very similar. It is only fitting that this old man with his myopic eyes could not distinguish the two of us.

"I'm here, old man. Don't cry anymore, I'm with you." Again I answer.

No, I'm not the one answering. But another soul inside me. The King's father's soul? How could his desires and soul be real and be able to control myself in this way?

Inevitably I became horrified and frightened with my own body. It's like this body isn't mine anymore. This body even obeys commands and other wills that are not of my own.

"They said you were no master...But I don't believe it..." The old man was crying more and more.

"And now my faith is proven. You're alive and well."

Shut up for a moment, neither I nor my other consciousness were able to react to it.

"Uhuuuk Miss...Miss Nefrit where is mister?" The grandfather's eyes searched all over the room in panic. And his gaze stopped on Saphir then he smiled.

"Whatever happens, you need to stay together. The heir to the throne of the Almekian Kingdom, glory will flutter back as the solid gold meets the deep, soothing sea of blue. Fused in the quiet, drifting, united..."

The old grandfather again said mysterious words that I could not understand their meaning and meaning. Did he mistake Saphir for Nephrit? Queen mother?

Maybe her old eyes thought Saphir was a mother because her short brown hair was similar to the hair of her mother, the young mother I saw in my dreams. Well almost the same thing happened with him wrongly seeing me as Jasper, my father.

After that, I felt my consciousness growing stronger. And the other consciousness in my mind suddenly disappeared just like that. The fatherland? Where you going? Why did you suddenly appear and disappear like this?

"Uhuuuuuk uhuuuuk Uhhhuuuukkk." The old man coughed loudly again. She also had difficulty breathing before fainting. How'this? What I have to do, he could die if this continues.

A flash of a black-robed figure suddenly grabbed the hand of the grandfather I was holding, to check the pulse on his wrist.

The figure also examined the pupil of the grandfather's eyes, as well as the opening of his clothes and lightly tapped his chest while his head was brought closer to the grandfather's chest.

"Peumothorak, nurse please quickly get me the infuse set, sterile gauze, antiseptic and oxygen tube." His orders to the nurse were temporary he continued his examination deftly.

(Pneumothorax is a medical term used to describe the condition of a collapsed (deflated) lung. Air enters the space between the lungs and the pleural lining that envelops the organ. Causing the lungs to collapse due to changes in air pressure in the lungs).

Who her? From her tone I can confirm she is a woman, and that tone.I think I know that voice.But who and where?...The nurse immediately ran towards the medicine room to retrieve whatever was mentioned earlier.

Realizing that I would only disturb the savior in his rescue, I took a few steps back. I took a standing position next to Saphir who was still standing in astonishment while trying to digest all the events he had just seen and was looking at.

"Jez.." said Saphir a little frightened to see someone dying before his own eyes.

"It's Ok. Everything's gonna be okay." I held her hand as an encouragement.

Not long ago the female nurse had returned with various medical equipment in her hands that were directly handed over to the mysterious cloaked woman earlier. The woman immediately acted.

The woman felt the lower right chest of the grandfather, looking for and estimating the position of his finger. He applied an antiseptic with a gauze on one part of the old chest. Then with a deft movement injected a needle at one point there. The next one is fixed with sterile plaster and gauze.

I could see a red liquid flowing from the needle in an area connected to a glass tube. With more and more blood coming out of the hose I can see the grandfather's breathing began to be regular and stable.

Lastly, after the breathing grandfather has been more stable, the oxygen mask is installed. Respiratory aids to the grandfather's nose and mouth, causing the old man to sleep. Calmly without coughing and difficulty breathing again.

"Well, his life is no longer threatened. Later I will make a prescription for him, drink to him three times a day yes," said the woman aide to the clinic nurse.

"Sister Amethys!!" Pekik Saphir gaped in astonishment, not believing in his own vision.

"Hello Saphir, Hi Jasper." Greet Kak Amethys with a friendly smile.

Saphir immediately ran over and hugged Amethys's body. Hugged her tightly and cried in her arms. "I miss...I miss everything." said Saphir.

"We chatted for a while yuk" Amethys lightly patted Saphir's back and directed him out of the patient's room.

"How can you be in town?" I asked Amethys as the three of us sat down and gathered in the waiting room of the hospital.

"Sister Diamond is here too, right?" Sapphire asked urgently.

"Yes, I'm actually here to deliver Diamond" Amethys told her the reason for their arrival in the city. He also tells the story of Ruby who kidnapped Opal and Platina. Also about Diamond and Opal who must participate in the tournament as representatives of Ruby.

"So Opal and Platina..." Saphir could not imagine the fate of the two friends who were in captivity.

"Ruby, I can't believe he's the leader of that desert robber." I'm going to comment.

"He's so mean! How are Opal and Platinum?" Saphir asked worriedly.

"In the meantime Opal and Platina are still doing well. And hopefully Ruby doesn't intend to hurt them." Said Amethys.

"Sister Diamond, how's my brother doing? He's obviously not healed yet, is he?" Saphir asked her anxiety about Diamond's condition.

"Yes, he's still in the healing stage."

"Is it safe for him to fight Jade?" I asked curious. I know very well what it's like to fight against that crazy guy. A man who is not reluctant to kill his opponent.

"Worrying.." replied Brother Amethys in a slightly riled up tone.

"Don't let him fight, brother. Prevent him from doing anything that endangers his life again." Sapphire felt uneasy hearing this.

"really so. Diamond could resign, right? Just use the reason for his bad health." I also support Sapphire's advice. It was too dangerous and risking his life to fight Jade. Find dead only.

"Can't be so, Opal and Platina's life is still in Ruby's hands. At least Diamond still has to fight even though he will lose." Brother Amethys reminded of their misplaced position.

"But what if he's all right?" Sapphire still cannot accept it. How could they have had to sacrifice Diamond for the safety of Opal and Platina, too cruel.

"Where's zircon?" Brother Amethys asked without answering Saphir's question.

"So he's still in the hall tournament. Maybe now he's back at the inn" I replied.

"I have to see him." Brother Amethys decided. It seemed like he had a plan in his head to deal with this situation.

"This is the key to our room in the city-limit inn. Second floor room, number 7." I handed the room key to the girl.

"All right, thank you. I'm first yeah." Pamit Kak Amethys to us. It seemed like he was going straight to the inn to meet with Zircon.

"It's gonna be okay, isn't it, Jez?" saphir asked helplessly after Amethys' departure. Too worried something bad happened to Diamond.

"definitely. Brother Amethys has a plan, and Zircon can definitely help him too." I said to calm Saphir down, though I didn't know what the two men would do to prevent things from becoming too dangerous.

"May all be safe." Saphir prayed his prayer and I was only willing to accept his prayer in return for him.
