".... Va! .... Va...! Ava..!"'s been...!"
Ava who was sleeping woke up. He heard the voice of someone calling to him.
"Daniel?" asked Ava in surprise. "What are you doing here for?."
"Mrs. Farensco said you were hurt, so I went with the doctor here. How are you doing? Which part is hurt?."
A woman who seemed to be a doctor started to approach. He then crouched down and said, "Where's the wound? I'll heal."
Ava showed her the belly she had sewed herself.
"Please handle it immediately. His weapon contained poison and his injuries were quite deep. I sewed it up because the blood didn't stop flowing."
"Good!."
The doctor immediately began his treatment. He opened the stitches first to check his internal organs. It turned out that the top of his stomach was torn and his intestines were cut in several parts.
"I-this...?!"
"What's up, Dr. Tera?" asked Daniel.
"The wound is very severe, not to mention the poison is quite strong. Which one should I finish first?."
"Estations of the organ first. I'll get the poison done myself."
"Good."
The operation process runs long enough. Ava kept trying to endure the excruciating pain. Didn't think it would be that bad, Dr. Tera only brings a little pain relief. Especially because of the long operating process, so you have to use it little by little and make the effect reduced.
Over an hour, the operation was finally completed. Ava was already in a semi-conscious state. Sweat drenched his entire body.
Ava tried to calm herself down. He set his breath to become more regular. His hand that had squeezed Daniel's hand hard now started to limp a little and restrained.
"Sorry, Daniel. Does that hurt?."
Daniel's eyes glazed over. Her lips began to open.
"It's okay.... You must be feeling more pain, right? It is even natural that you break my bones or tear my skin. That's okay," said while holding back his cries.
"Haha.... What the hell are you saying? I'm not gonna do it."
Ava tried to sit down. He succeeded, but still had to lean on Daniel. Even his hands were still unable to withstand his weight.
"Daniel, sorry to bother you again. Can you lean my body on a tree, stone, or whatever? I'll try to remove the poison."
"okay."
Daniel holds Ava and leaves her on a large tree. After that, he stayed away and left Ava alone.
"Well.... I can't just be like this. I hope I can get the poison out soon."
...----------------...
"I.... Can't get rid of all the poison. Is the effect still great? Whatever it is, at least I'm much better now. It's time to go back."
Ava will return to the academy to take on a new mission. He intends to take his pay later when all his missions are completed.
"How are you doing, you fucking student?."
"What happened to the way you spoke, Mister?."
"Ah, I'm just mimicking Adriell's style of speech. What's weird?."
"Yes, very strange. Since this disciple of yours is about to complete his mission, please leave immediately because you're blocking me" Ava said.
"Before that, answer my question first."
"I'm doing fine. There's no need to worry too much, Academy Head. You, are a subordinate of the Xavier family. If you're too familiar with me, you could lose your position, you know...."
After saying that, Ava immediately went on her next mission. Mr. Farensco simply kept silent without being able to return a word. He even thought of something.
"It is true that I am a subordinate of the Xavier family. But I can't possibly ignore the kid surnamed Meshach van Dominic, right? This task is very difficult. Do I just resign, yes..," inner Mr. Farensco's.
...----------------...
Alva is relaxing in her dorm. He read a book on his living room couch. The bird he kept was whistling with a beautiful tone, its voice was similar to a piano. The wind that blows sometimes forms a violin-like sound, as if accompanying the sound of the bird.
"A good atmosphere. Although I feel it every day, but it still feels amazing," said Alva satisfied.
"But, my heart feels uncomfortable. Is something going on out there? I'll go see her."
Alva immediately got ready and got out of her dorm. He intended to go around the academy to see what happened, all the way around.
During the trip, nothing special happened. The students and teachers are relaxing. The weather was clear with the warm sun, the birds were flying freely with joy. Everything looks normal.
Having found nothing, Alva decides to take a break in the park. Coincidentally, he saw Mr. Farensco looked moody. His face was completely pale. Alva approached him out of worry.
"Mrs. Farensco's. Are you all right? Your face looks pale and somber" said Alva.
"A-ah, it's nothing. I've only been thinking about a few things that have gotten me into trouble lately."
"If you may know, what trouble is that?" asked Alva.
"For example, yes. You are in a position as the bodyguard of an influential group, but you have someone who is far more influential where inevitably still have to interact with him. While the group you work for will kill you if you know that you interact with other groups. What are you gonna do?."
"Hmmm.... If I were alone, I would retreat slowly and go to a stronger stronghold."
"Then what if you have a promise or an oath to a weaker camp?."
"In that case, we must keep his promise first. If it's been kept, we can get out of there if possible."
".... Alright. Why did you go to the park alone on this holiday?."
"My feeling is not good. So maybe something is going on and I go to see it."
"Ohhhh.... By the way, don't be too raw when talking to me. That's a little uncomfortable" pinta Mr. Farensco's.
"Ah, sorry. Alright."
They continued that conversation for a long time. They even moved to another place when the sun had started to set. They spoke with great fun without caring about the gaze that was fixed on them.
"Basic. They really like to be the center of attention" said Ava who was hanging out on the roof of the tower.
