ZEN LORD SKYWEST
Episode 46 { On cuckoo }

"Why are you crying, Rin?" Ask Zen.

"I-I can't see your bandaged hands. Because it must hurt, right? Hix... hicks...." Princess Irene's.

"If you knew the reason for seeing my hand, I'd rather not show it." Zen Gumam.

"May you recover quickly Zen, hyks.... Well, my brother Incelote is now making a fuss at my door because he hears my cry." Princess Irene.

"Ah, yes, then. And Rin." too." Sahut Zen while waving his hand with his left hand because his hand was holding a crystal ball.

"Goddessa...." The sound of Princess Irene crying after seeing Zen's bandaged left hand.

After that their conversation came to a halt, and Zen returned the crystal ball to the great master.

"Sleep now, because it's almost midnight. And have a good night's sleep Zen." Said the great lord who then flicked his finger and disappeared.

Then Zen muttered....

"If only my mother were still there, would her reaction be the same as Rin crying seeing me hurt. Every time I saw Rin, I kept thinking about my mother who looked like her."

After saying that, Zen fell asleep.

Her morning....

"Hey, Yui. when are you gonna wake up.... Diego and I want to get you to play as usual." Said Lucas by putting his face into the hospital bed that Zen fell on.

"Yes, Yui. we miss you so much...." Sahut Mia's.

"Emm.. Why are you so noisy anyway, it's still morning tau." Zen said that he woke up to the noise.

"Yui, you're sober!" Shouted Lucas who was surprised to see Zen waking up from his sleep.

"Ah, yes, I'm aware." Sahut Zen's.

"Now I must pretend not to know how long I have been unconscious." Zen Gumam.

"Hey, by the way..How long have I been unconscious?" Zen asked while rubbing his face.

"You've been unconscious for two weeks, we don't even think you're gonna wake up again." Mia Say.

"What do you think I'm in a coma?" Sahut Zen's.

"You're Yui's coma...." Said Diego, Lucas and Mia with flat expressions.

"Huh.so so apparently. Oh, yes... What about Hilda and the seniors? Are they okay." Ask Zen.

"They only fainted for a while, but not for you because your wounds were severe enough. Before we approached the three of you, the Rankers who were ordered to save us from that monstrous Dungeon, came up to us and wondered how many people had disappeared from the team."

"While what we saw before was a beautiful garden, after the mist was gone, we searched for you. And in the end we found the three of you lying on the ground together with the Dungeon-owning Monster."

"All the Rankers who helped us to get out of the Dungeon were immediately shocked because the Monster was defeated, when he said... That monster has been taking a lot of casualties every year."

"He's a kind of monster that can make us hallucinate, and the Dungeon of the Monster is moving places and even changing the color of the portal."

"We are all confused as to who exactly defeated the Monster.... Hilda and the senior said they did not defeat the Monster, even they were surprised to learn that there was a Monster in the Dungeon."

"So me, Diego, Mia and also the senior Ranker of Team Three who completed the mission thought."

"But not for the other Seniors who had come to help, they did not believe that a new disciple could defeat a Monster that was S level like that Monster. Although they don't believe it, but we and the Senior Teams three, believe that you're the one who defeated him." Lucas.

"Yes, we trust Yui! You're the one who beat him." Mia and Diego.

Knock, knock, knock....

The one who knocked on the door was Hilda, after she knocked on the door she then entered then said after seeing Zen was already conscious.

"You're aware, huh, Yui? Ah, I want to tell you something.... Thank you so much for everything you did during my hallucinations in that Dungeon, I still remember that I pushed you and thrashed around to escape your arms, even though you were trying to save me."

"At first I did see you trying to make me realize, after that, you disappeared somewhere and I saw there were two Zen there. Though said senior who was also hallucinating, he only saw one figure like his deceased brother."

"And I also heard from the other seniors, he said the person who hallucinated in the Dungeon would see someone who looked like our dead closest person."

"They didn't say that the Dungeon could make more than two people the same, and again... The other Zen instead of getting me into the trap of the Monster, Zen who was near me immediately hugged me and said... I don't want you to be okay so don't go."

"After that came the voice of the monster then I didn't remember anything else, and by the time I hugged him, it felt really the same as he hugged me when I was scared as a kid."

"So tell me Yui, did you see Zen holding me back then? Zen was still alive, he hugged me back then. It couldn't be an illusion, could it?" Hilda asked with hope.

"I didn't see anything, inside the Dungeon it was filled with fog. So how can I see clearly, after you pushed me back then. I don't know where you are anymore because I can't see anything." Sahut Zen's.

"It's a good thing I've been preparing for this excuse from last night. I didn't expect that if my guess was correct, he would ask about Zen who had embraced him back then."

"I'm sorry, Hilda, if only I could tell you that your Zen friend whom you longed for and whom the world deems to be is gone. He is still alive, and he is right before you now." He said inwardly as he looked towards Hilda with his clenched right hand.

"Currently, I thought you saw it that day.I took my word about thanking you." Hilda said with an annoyed face, then she immediately went out.

"What the fuck is that woman? His job was just to make people's emotions just explode!" Lucas.

Knocks, knock....

"Can we go in" asked a few people from outside.

"Yes, you can come in." Sahut Zen's.
