Mixed Blood
Eps. 81 Worrying

One day after the previous brawl incident Ariel and Galen meet again on campus.

He stopped when he passed the man after seeing the plaster on Galen's face.

“Don't tell me Orion took care of your wound... ?!” he said, raising his hand to remove the plaster from the child's face.

Galen who disliked someone touching her face immediately held Ariel's hand before it managed to land onto her face.

“What's the deal with you ? You're jealous ?!” he replied with a big smile and let go of Ariel's hand violently.

Galen immediately turned around and walked away leaving Ariel because she did not want to deal with the man anymore.

“Awas only... if you approach Orion again !!” ariel shouted loudly for the man to hear his warning.

“greb...” there is someone who holds his shoulder so memorize it with that scent.

“Orion...” Ariel said as she turned around.

“How about your wound yesterday ?” asked the girl to look at Ariel's face while holding it and look no scar after previously looked badly swollen.

“I think it's fine..you know for yourself as severe as my wounds will soon recover without having to be treated.” replied the child with a smile.

Orion who was feeling worried earlier at the boy immediately pulled his hand from Ariel's face after seeing the man was fine.

Galen turned away from the distance when he heard Orion's voice.

“Ah...he is still with the wolf.” he said turned back after seeing the two of them and continued his steps into his class.

Ariel and Orion walk together to their class and split up in the middle of the road because they are different classes.

During the day at recess, Orion exits class and walks with classmate Clara down the hallway. In the middle of the road they cross paths with Galen.

“Orion... I will treat you to dinner today in the cafeteria as my first thanks to you.” said the boy stopped in front of Orion.

“But I want to go to..” he said refusing to Clara who was beside him.

“Ah is fine... Our task is still next week will only be collected so we do not need to rush to work on it.” said Clara canceled going to the library with the girl.

“Alright then let's go to the cafeteria now.” Orion replied looking at Galen then holding Clara's hand taking her walking together to the canteen.

Clara pulled her hand from Orion's hand and stopped walking.

“Sorry Orion... I cannot accompany you to Kak's canteen because I still have other business.” he said.

Orion seemed disappointed to hear his friend reject his invitation, while Galen seemed to smile happily because there was nothing to bother them both.

“Goodbye in class..” said Clara walked away leaving them both. Sometimes the girl turned to Orion who had walked with Galen. He found it strange why Orion was suddenly close to Galen.

The two of them finally arrived at the cafeteria and sat facing each other and started eating the food they ordered.

Ariel who was looking for Orion was not in the classroom, went to the cafeteria. His face instantly turned disillusioned to find the girl sitting together with Galen. He abandoned his intention to approach Orion and chose to leave.

“Hah... there is Galen again..lazy once if you have to deal with the man.” he said annoyed and immediately turned to leave the canteen and choose to go elsewhere.

Since the previous incident the two of them never wanted to face each other again when there was Orion to avoid them returning to do embarrassing things in front of the girl that would make him angry.

“Galen... Why are you smiling yourself ?” asked Orion who saw the man suddenly smiling for no apparent reason while frowning his forehead.

Galen tries to find an excuse for the girl not to look back or she will see Ariel.

“Ah no... I just feel funny with someone who just passed.” he replied looking for an excuse.

Orion did not understand who Galen meant and he did not dispute that.

“Oh yes how about your wound is it better ?” asked the girl to look at the plaster that was still attached to Galen's face as she reached out and touched the wound.

“Oh... don't touch anymore. Still a little pain, maybe a few more days will heal.” he said pretending to be sick while holding the hand of Orient who still touched his face.

“Ya sorry...” she replied and immediately took her hand away from Galen's face and resumed eating.

Galen paused for a moment to look at the girl in front of him who had paid attention to her where she had never received such attention before from her family or anyone else.

The day after class ended. Galen decides to immediately return to the Holy Grail palace to monitor the situation there and meet with the stealth team discussing the mission that has ended. It didn't take long for him to return to the palace.

“Greetings... Prince Galen..” said the royal palace guards of the Holy Grail who saw the prince suddenly appear before them saluting.

Prince Galen simply nodded and smiled back the greetings from the guards there. He immediately rushed into the palace.

Inside the palace he saw his busy-looking father, and he finally headed to his private room.

Inside the room he sat facing the window and pondered for a moment at what to do.

King Edwin who had seen a shadow of his son went to the child's room to ascertain whether Prince Galen had indeed returned home.

“kriek..”.

Prince Galen who was night on did not realize if there was someone who opened and entered his room.

“Galen... Have you gone home, son... ? is your mission complete?” prince Edwin approached his son.

Galen was shocked and awakened from his daydream after hearing a question from his father.

“Dad... since when was Dad in my room ?” he looked at King Edwin.

“Ehm... What is it that you suddenly came home ?” king Edwin repeated his question.

Prince Galen was silent for a moment and thought before his father found out if his mission had ended and would give him another assignment.

“Actually I came home just to pick up daddy's magic powder. I ran out of the powder.” he said reasoned then stood up and opened his drawer looking for the existence of the object.

Seeing his busy-looking son, King Edwin decided to get out of the room.

“All right dad go first. If you run out of magic powder you can ask Dad. I have a lot of stock.” said King Edwin while closing the room door.

“Luckily father left immediately..” murmured he closed the drawer and then sat back on the edge of his bed.

For a moment Prince Galen smiled at the usual room he was in. But suddenly he felt bored after remembering many things he had to do in the palace because his father always gave him many tasks. For some reason he suddenly remembered the Orion smile that made him even more worried about stopping this mission or continuing to continue it.

SERIATE....
