The Mysterious Hero
25. Worrying about you

'You are always forcing yourself. It's true that you managed to purify her, but with your magic being divided, it doesn't completely protect your body either. Basic sloppy.'

The crystal necklace that Ruka wore shone brightly. A magic circle formed under his body which then gave off a glittering silver light.

'Fortunately, Mr. Amato also helped. I'm sure he also wants to nag at length about your condition.' Rika was completely inexhaustible with her 'sister' that. If only he could still flick his brother's forehead, he would definitely do this right now.

But on the other hand, he was worried too. Although he was born as Ruka's 'sister', but Rinka still does not know much about her brother. All he knew was that the elder brother was born with an almost unreasonable ability.

The great power even exceeds the magic power of children his age, making him sometimes think the brother is a descendant of a god or something. But where is it possible, right?

But even so, Ruka is only a human who must have a weak side. Seeing the brother lying weak due to the effect of Amdusias attack made him continue to feel worried.

'Healing fast...'

*****

Ruka woke up in a daze. His eyesight was still a little dark and his head was still dizzy, but compared to before this was already much better.

The last thing he remembers is coming to visit. To be honest, Ruka did not remember who it was. His consciousness that began to thin, coupled with the throbbing pain in his head made Ruka unable to remember clearly who visited her earlier.

But because he was on the bed and plus the nightstand there was a permit, maybe it was his classmate.

Ruka stood up and stepped closer to the mirror in the room. Appearance chaotic. His tangled hair, pale face, clear eye bags, and clear sweat marks. Maybe mixed with tears because he had dreamed of the past with his family first.

Ruka noticed her reflection in the mirror. The golden mark under his eyes had already disappeared completely by now. He had worried at first, what if when his classmates visited and accidentally saw the sign, maybe his identity would be revealed.

Many years have passed since the last time the sign appeared. The mark that became the symbol of her magic power was hidden, as well as sealing a portion of her magic power now.

If it was his former self, then it was only necessary to blink an eye to defeat Amdusias. But now he can't be too bright to use it. There are secrets to be kept and people to protect. In addition, her magic power is slightly weakened making her quite overwhelmed if she had to use magic with a large scale like before again.

"Heah... Looks like I should practice again right?" Ruka said slowly.

The pendant on her necklace again glowed dimly, a sign Rinka started communication. 'I think so. But... Don't force yourself. You also need to rest know. How can you beat Ba'al if you're like this?'

"Hm... Alright... Maybe a little bit doesn't hurt." Answer Ruka again.

Sighing, Ruka shook her head. Expel all the bad thoughts that filled his head. He chose to go for a bath while cooling his head. At least it will help make it better.

A few minutes after Ruka finished her bath, the door was knocked. Hali and Hika who were carrying plastic bags stood behind the door. The more cheerful twin raised the plastic bag in her hand and said cheerfully,

"Gdh..."

"You guys??"

"How are you doing?" Hali looked at Ruka's pale face, though not as bad as he thought. The young man before him stood still with his bath coat and wet hair and the water droplets still flowing, his forehead involuntarily shriveling.

Ruka, whether conscious or not, invited the two in. Not yet had she gone to the kitchen, Hali pulled her up and sat her forcibly on the bed then snorted, "you're still sick. Stay here."

And so, the First Prince snatched a plastic bag filled with food from his twin and left. Hika smiled wryly. "I'm sorry about his attitude, Kak Hali is so when you see people who are sick. Even though he looks fierce and indifferent, he's actually very considerate."

Yeah, it's obvious tsundere.

"What's wrong, I'm sick anyway."

Hika sits her body on Ruka's bed, right next to her. His hand deftly directly picked up the towel that was leaned on Ruka's shoulder and began to dry her wet hair.

"How did you get sick all of a sudden? Yesterday was still good. Even you're in the spirit of time to deal with that troubled kid."

"Hahaha, I don't know. Maybe exhausted?"

"Ck ck ck, Chairman Ruka, you set a bad example." Hika shook her head. His lips are manyun, pouting either to explore the words or other things. "It's not a good thing to work a full day without rest. Look at those eye bags! You look like a woman whose makeup is worn off! People can mistake you for a ghost or for a panda."

Ruka laughed and smacked a small arm of Hika. The wind element user replied by shaking Ruka's head to the left.

"Hey, hey! It's already! My head's dizzy!" That's not a lie. Her head did indeed turn back dizzy when Hika ruthlessly shook her head.

Ruka tried to hold her head and put Hika's hand away from her head.

Hika according. He put his hands away, the little towel on the nightstand. Instead, he took out a comb and started combing Ruka's hair.

"You know, we were all worried because you didn't come in. I know you have a lot to do, but please don't push yourself like this. You're a human who needs rest too. If there's no you, the class is quiet even though we haven't had 2 days at this school, but you know? It's obviously a lot of people if you don't exist. I used to be noisy until disturbed by the commotion in class. Especially the girls who screamed at me. I know I'm handsome, but not to the whole thing either, right? No classes are lacking.... So then... Don't get sick again because of soy sauce, okay?" Celoteh Hika at length menghatkan keluhnya.

Ruka was downcast to hear that, "I'm sorry, I won't do that anymore."

There is a delicious taste that makes his chest tight. Actually he did not want to lie, but it is also impossible for Ruka to tell the truth, right?
