Chapter 152 152: Complications [Pt1]



You would think that the news of Elysia being out of danger would relieve Adam and Eve the most. And they would also be the happiest out of everyone to hear that she would be alright.

But it would come to everyone\'s surprise that the one who was most relieved by this news was the doctor himself. He could not help but feel like he had dodged a bullet right now.

\'I am so lucky this noble lady managed to hold on. What strong willpower she has. I am safe again.\'

The doctor was a normal human and he did not want any danger on his and his family\'s head. So he also needed to stay in the Saintess and the Emperor\'s good grace.

"So, how soon will she wake up? I want a definitive time frame for Elysia to gain consciousness. And don\'t you dare try to bullshit me by saying \'soon\'?"

It seemed like the doctor had celebrated a little bit earlier than he should have. The Saintess sounded rather angry as she snapped the ground in front of the doctor hard.

Her angry eyes looked at the Doctor like he was an insignificant bug that did not hold any importance in Eve\'s eyes. And that stare made the doctor feel insignificant as well.

He had been praised for his medical knowledge but here he was, being intimidated by a little girl not even in her adult years.

"Now Eve, you should be careful. You don\'t need to threaten a flee like him yourself." The doctor was beyond happy to know that he had been spared. But all his joy turned to dread at hearing the Emperor\'s next words.

"After all, worms like him should know their place. He has no right to ask anything from us, right?"

"Y-Yes, that is right. I know my place."

The doctor agreed pretty quickly. He had thought that the Saintess was terrifying before but there was a different kind of fear that went through one\'s mind when they had the Emperor staring back at them.

The doctor was beyond relieved that he had not spoken any of the internal thoughts he had when he had first known the name of his patient. His whole family would have been killed.

"Adam now is not the time. I need you to focus right now. And you, you better tell me how soon Elysia will wake up or else."

Eve threatened the doctor again, not forgetting the initial reason she had started this talk. The doctor yelped, not expecting the Saintess to turn her attention back to him.

"Ummm, she should wake up soon."

The meek voiced doctor replied, only to shrink in further as the Saintess cornered him.

"And how soon is \'soon\' exactly? I asked for a specific range, not a vague answer."

The doctor was a human and not a god. How could he tell when Elysia Dirac was going to wake up?

Even the Saintess should know that no one could guess when a patient would wake up. That kind of power was not in a healer\'s hand.

"Ummm"

Thankfully, he was spared from answering all these tough questions when Elysia decided to wake up herself. Her timing could not have been more perfect for the doctor since he was suddenly spared.

Elysia had not opened her eyes yet but she was awake now. The doctor had no idea what she was doing but he did know that Elysia was out of danger.

"W-Well, it looks like our patient is awake. D-Do you want me to examine her right now?"

The doctor asked, praying to every deity that these people will let him go. He did not want to stay here anymore.

"No, there is no need to. You both, hurry up and get out. Also, inform Lord Dirac that Elysia is up and to get himself here right now."

The doctor was beyond happy to finally escape this nightmare. He had been stuck in this place for hours where he felt like he would never be able to survive the day.

The maid who had been assigned to look after Elysia looked a little disappointed and she did not want to head out like that. This made her earn more brownie points in Eve\'s eyes.

But all that flew out of Eve\'s mind once she saw Elysia\'s open eyes looking at her. It was such a relief-filled feeling to see Elyais awake again.

"Elysia, are you alright? Talk to me right now. You need to show me that you are awake."

Eve asked, knowing well that she needed to drag Elysia\'s consciousness back to the surface. Just because Elysia was awake did not mean she was conscious of what was happening to her.

Tired blue eyes turned toward Eve but they seemed rather unseeing. Their out-of-coarseness was not a concern for Eve since Elysia\'s eyesight had always been bad because of the curse.

"Y-You! What are you both doing here? You should not be here."

Elysia groaned those words as she faced her two friends. Eve was relieved beyond reason to see her awake so soon.

"What were you doing? Why did you allow us to be so rough with you last night when your body could not handle it? Did you want us to feel guilty over you?"

Adam roared out his words, his worry taking over and converting into guilt. Eve was feeling similar to Adam, but she hid her worry better.

They needed to work around Elysia a little more carefully if they did not want to scare her. Elysia was already fragile and Eve felt worried for her.

"I was completely fine last night so it was not a problem. Even I am not sure why I developed this fever so don\'t worry. I am sure it was not your fault."

Elysia was trying to convince them that it was not their fault but Eve did not feel reassured. She could feel the guilt in her veins, threatening to drown her.

Eve was convinced that Elysia was in this condition because of her and Adam, so it was also up to them to take care of her now.

The general rumor about Elysia being behind the attack had all but cleared out by the temple and the recent monster attack so that was one problem out of the way.

Eve was not one to wish harm on people. In fact, she would be the first one who would act as a shield when needed to be.

But that did not matter when the other side of the equation pointed toward Elysia. If it was for Elysia\'s sake, then this world could burn.

And Eve was sure that Adam felt similar to her as well.

"Whether you are fine or not, it does not matter. You still managed to fall sick anyway. Fortunately, Lord Lucas managed to go you out in time."

Adam replied to Elysia, his eyes switching between normal human ones and the beast ones. He was losing control of his emotions and getting more and more upset.

Eve felt sorry for him but she needed to focus on Elysia for now. She could see Elyia\'s energy levels falling short of normal which mean that she was still not up to her regular health.

"Sorry for worrying you. I guess I overworked myself a little there. I will try to take better care of myself in the future. Ah, I need to ask you, what happened to the case? Is it solved? How did I manage to get out of the temple."

Eve was sure that \'prison\' would be a better word for the place Elysia had been. The room that Elysia had been kept in was \'passable\' but only in the basic sense.

And Elysia deserved so much better than that small room of hers.

"Don\'t worry about all that. I took you out of the temple and brought you back to the Dirac Estate. The temple no longer had any reason to hold you in."

Lucas Dirac entered the room in all his majestic glory. His sheer presence was enough to turn heads and make everyone look toward him.

The doctor and the servant who had been sent outside the room were covering behind Lucas Dirac. Their forms were curled over themselves in an attempt to make their bodies smaller.

Eve could tell that they were terrified so she signaled for them to leave again.

And as soon as the servants had left them all alone, Lucas Dirac did the thing no one could ever expect from him. He let go of all his emotionlessness and hugged Elysia. His arms were like a secure cage Elysia and she felt warm in his embrace.

"Elysia, it is so nice to see you awake. You scared me so much. Please, never take such actions again or you will give me a heart attack."

Elysia could not help but feel like her brother was thinner than before and also a little fragile. But he was still the same Lucas she remembered.

Now she was officially home.
