A small emergency

Lenis knew he could not avoid it, because he was never planning on trying to avoid it. He wanted to apologize to her ever since that day. He knew he had finally got his chance and it would be a waste if he wasted it now.

He started to talk to her about the day that they were ordered to capture Khai and Regina and that the order came from Raphael, how the leader wanted to kill them. He told her that it was Arthur who asked him to go with the group and find a way for them, a chance to escape.

Lenis started to cry a little "I'm sorry…I tried my best to let them escape unhurt… but I failed.'

Marika stood up and didn't say a word, she stood in front of Lenis.

"I'm sorry…"

Richard and Derick peaked inside the kitchen because they were worried for Lenis because Marika didn't respond with any words.

Marika then pulled Lenis in to her embrace. Lenis was shocked about what she did and she spoke to him in a reassuring voice 'Thank you for letting my children escape, you did everything you could to keep them save.'

'You did nothing to anger me, I'm very thankful for what you did.'

Lenis broke down and cried. And Marika just stood there and let him cry out all his anxieties and stroke his head.

'You were very brave, and because you saved my children I give you a last name as a reward.'

Lenis looked at her and wiped away his tears.

'Lenis, from today your last name will be Virtus. The meaning of Virtus is brave, and it suits you.'

'So what do you think?'

Lenis looked at Marika, nodded and smiled at her. "I like it very much, thank you."

Marika smiled back at him with a warm smile.

She then went back to her seat and set down.

Marika then asked Lenis where he live.

"I'm an orphan and I used to live on the streets in the Blood Kingdom."

'Then how did you end up in that group that day?'

"Arthur… he needed someone who could help him with a problem, and I was perfect for the job because, we are from the streets and nobody cared for us, thus we are invisible from society."

"He took me to get myself cleaned up and gave me some money and cloths. He told me that when I done the job he would pay me and let me go to do whatever I want."

'Is there something you want to do in life or have a dream of becoming something?'

Lenis looked at her "Promise me you won't laugh!"

'I promise!'

Lenis looked a bit awkward. "I want to become a stylist and a fashion designer."

Marika looked at him 'Really!? I think that would be great.'

'Lenis, if somebody offered you a change to become a designer and a stylist would you take it?'

Lenis looked at Marika "Well if somebody offered it I would take it but…"

'But... Why are you hesitating?'

"Even if I would get an offer… I don't have a place to stay and money to invest in to my dreams."

Richard and Derick came into the kitchen.

"Well why don't you stay here in Virtus et Caeruleus Viridi?" Derick asked him.

Marika nodded 'It maybe a small country and all, but you have room to grow here and your ability's can flourish here.'

'So I will offer you a place to stay and support you in anyway and all ways. So will you take the offer?'

Then Richard said something to Lenis.

"Did you know that the Queen of Virtus et Caeruleus Viridi, will lend her aid to anybody who needs it. She doesn't care for race, title or back ground the person has."

Marika smiled at Lenis.

Lenis then looked at Marika with a shock on his face and he then looked at Derick who nodded.

'So how about it? Will you take the offer?'

Lenis stood up in a hurry and bowed to Marika.

"Not only did Your Majesty give me a last name, but also give me a chance to fulfill my dream. I will gracefully accept the offer of Her Majesty."

Marika stood up and ruffled Lenis hair. 'Don't be so formal, just treat me as you would a friend outside of my palace and call me Marika. And if there is a need to be formal, address me as Queen Yumaria. But I doubt that will happen anytime soon.' she smiled at Lenis.

Lenis looked up at Marika "Then we are friends now?" He asked her.

Marika nodded.

'For the time being just stay here and make sure your health will improve. I will arrange your housing and teachers, so there is no need to hurry.'

Marika the left the kitchen to go to her brother Luca.

A few minutes later Dante and Kevin came in to the kitchen and saw Richard sitting there.

Dante showed him the invitation letter and told him she was planning to go.

"What the hell are they thinking…."

Derick looked at it and chuckled a bit. "Well it seems they want to match make you to the Queen of Virtus et Caeruleus Viridi."

"But this is also good for the both of you, you have time to relax a bit and you can show her around your country. Why not bring her to Moon Lake while you're there, she would love it since there are a lot of herbs in the area."

Richard smiled and nodded.

Then Kevin gave him the other letter "Sister said this was your responsibility."

Richard read it " Well she is right, I'll handle this."

Marika arrived at Luca's room and knock 3 times.

"Come in."

She opened the door and walked in to the room. She then laid down on the sofa.

"And here I thought you would run away."

'And if I did you would only nag at me more, please spare me.' She sighed.

"So sister tell me what made you all depressed and talk like that?"

'Would you be able to understand if I told you?'

"I don't know, when I saw what happened in Ignis with you and the that doctor, I got a pretty big shock."

'Well that happen before you were born.'

"Still you were traumatized to the point you can't deal with any doctor wearing his coat, and just straight up attack them."

'Well… it's a fight or flight response. Instead of fleeing I redder fight. But when I first met Genus I fought him. Well almost killed him but I also ran away from him. Second time I saw him I only scared him and did beat him up a bit.' Marika chuckled.

'But when I was in a bad shape he helped me. But he wasn't wearing his coat at the 3rd time so it was easy for me to accept his help.'

"Then when did you start to trust him?"

'I don't know… but I really don't care about it either.'

"Why?"

'Because sometimes over time you just get used to have certain people around you.'

"Will you ever be able to trust other doctors?"

'Who knows, I trust Genus and Azu. Isn't that more than enough?'

"What about me?"

'Well isn't that a given? You are wearing your coat with that damn smell on it although it's light.'

"So about yesterday, what made you so depressed you wanted to hide yourself away from everybody."

Marika looked dejected. 'Well that's because I experienced this before. And I lost someone from the village who was dear to me. This attack look very similar so…'

Richard was outside of Luca's room and heard her speak about the first attack on Faber Village. The memory of seeing Marika sitting on the ground with dead man in her arms crying in agony gave him the same chilly feeling as he had that day.

He heard Marika tell Luca what happened that day.

'Even though I'm so used to it, it still hurt me. But the people of the village didn't do anything to deserves that and at that time I blamed myself. Even though the villagers didn't blame me nor Richard, Canus and Cinis.'

'But this last attack on the village made me want to run away so nobody can get hurt again because of me.'

"Do you regret being in this world?"

'Honestly? No… When I first got her I was so happy that I could finally live a peaceful life and do the things I never really got the chance of doing in the human world.'

'But then I discovered my body was deteriorate and my life was in danger, so I started to teach Dante and Kevin and wrote a music piece for Richard so that even if my new life was short I could at least leave some knowledge and memories of my existent behind.'

'But looking back at it all, why am I always targeted?' Marika started to cry.

'Am I not allowed to have a little bit of happiness, or a peaceful life?'

'If I'm not allowed, isn't it better to just disappear and live the rest of my life in isolation? Isn't it better for everybody around me so they don't get hurt because of me?'

'I just have to repeat what I did in the human word. I just disappear so everybody is safe.'

Richard heard Marika words and crying, his heart felt heavy. She always showed her strong side to mask what was really inside her heart.

Richard turned around and walked to his study.

"Sister running a way or disappearing won't guarantee the safety of the people you love the most."

"I know your tired of fighting, but it's impossible throughout life to not fight."

"But I know your smart and you won't fight unless somebody challenge you to a fight."

"You have so many friends and family, you can depend on us. You also have a reliable future husband."

"I know living in solitary for so long and fighting alone is what you know and used to, but you're not alone anymore."

Marika wiped away her tears.

"Are you feeling a little better?"

Marika nodded.

"That's good, now I heard you still have to deal with Raphael the day after tomorrow. And I know for sure this will trigger a long standing issue. So I recommend you start to prepare yourself and keep in the back of your mind that people will and can get hurt. But you also have people who have your back."

Marika hugged her brother Luca.

'Thank you brother.'

Marika then turned around and walked to the door.

"Where are you going sis?"

'I'm going to visit white coat.'

Luca smiled. "Well don't break him."

Marika smiled and nodded.

Marika took off to the sky and flew over to Moon Castle; she knew Genus lived there.

As she arrived she then walked in to his place without knocking first.

'Hey white coat! What do you need from me!?'

Genus got startled by her.

"Hey little girl do you want me to die? You almost gave me a heart attack."

'Don't be such a baby…a little fright now and then is good for the heart.'

Genus looked at her.

'So why did you needed to see me for?'

"It seems you met with a student of mine."

'Yeh, what of it?'

"Well I saw the footage of your interaction with him, so I checked his coat, and it had a heavy smell on it… the smell you hate the most."

'Ohh you want to know why I was fine with him?'

'When I hugged Richard I told him there was a doctor.'

'My senses are why stronger when I'm in my 7th stage'

'But Richard saw him and estimated he was around Azurite's age so he told me I should treat him as if he was Azu.'

'I repeated to myself that he was just like Azu to calm myself. And when I got closer to him I also smelled you on him so…'

"So because of my sent and Richard's words you could deal with it?"

Marika nodded.

'Just to be fair, he is currently an exception. I don't think it will work on others.'

"And your currently fine with me also wearing a coat with the smell on it?"

'Well didn't I tell you last time your house stinks.' Marika smiled.

"So because of the heavy air you are able to ignore the coat and see the person infront of you, and don't see me or that person as a doctor?"

'Something like that, but can I leave now? It really reeks here.'

'Oh yeh before I go, your student wanted to study herb's and medicine. Apparently he read a note book I gave you. So why not trade students in 2 or 3 months, you can put all your attention on Azurite and I'll have your student study under me.'

"Sounds good to me, but still I'll need to inform my student of your condition. Is that a problem?"

Marika shook her head. 'I think it's for the better, and if you have by change footage of me attacking a doctor just show it to him how bad it could get.'

"Alright then. Well I have to say you did good on keeping your calm like that. It may be a too big of a step and it can result in you have to take a step back but don't forget that you're not in a hurry and take your time. If it's too much just say so and we adjust to it."

Marika then hugged Genus. 'My brother asked me today when I started to trust you. And I answered I didn't know when that happened and I didn't care about it either.'

'But when I think about it, I think it started the day you made the sedative for me when I was in agony.' She smiled at him.

Genus ruffle her hair "We have come a long way the two of us, but the ride was fun non the less little girl."

Marika laughed a little 'I won't disagree with you on that white coat.'

Suddenly a young man came running in "Teacher! I need your help!"

Marika turned around and saw the young men she met before.

'First breath! You need to calm down.'

The young man saw Marika and was shocked for a bit, but he started to calm down.

'What is the problem?'

"The minister got stabbed and the medicine isn't working."

'Did you check for poison?'

He nodded "Yes but the medicine I gave him isn't working,"

Genus call the king to get his ass back at the palace. These vermin are getting out of control.'

She then looked throughout the herb shelf, 'Great you have all the herbs I need to make the special candy.

She took all the herbs 'Bring me to the minister. And you get your first lesson in medicine.'

Marika and the young man left and Genus called Richard.

"What is it?"

"Nothing much, your wife told me to tell you that you need to get your ass over here to the palace because the vermin are getting out of hand."

"What?"

"It seems the minister got stabbed and poisoned. Your wife and my student are on their way to help him."

"Alright, I'll be there soon."

Marika and the young man arrived at the ministers room, where a few people were looking after him. When they saw Marika they were surprised.

"Your Majesty why are you here?"

'That comes later, where is the knife?'

She smelled it and found the smell similar to the poison she was poisoned with last time.

'How long ago was it that he got stabbed?'

"Roughly half an hour ago."

She then took out everything and started to make her medicine. After 5 minuts she took a drop of his blood and put it in there. They young man was done on his end and gave it to Marika.

'I need everybody to be silent because this part needs my upmost concentration.'

Genus and Richard also arrived and saw Marika making the medicine.

After 15 minutes she was done and gave it to the minister.

Marika started to feel a little dizzy and was about to collapse.

The young man caught her "Are you alright?"

Marika nodded 'I'm fine just a little dizzy that's all.'

The minister woke up and heard Genus yell at Marika.

"You're not fine at all!! Look at yourself you can barely stand on your feet!"

'I'm fine! Don't yell at me like that. It's just… normally it would take me 2 days to make this, so I won't suffer this type of backlash.'

'And it was an emergency…' *cough* *cough*

Marika was coughing up a little blood.

She looked at Richard and saw that he was angry at her for being reckless again.

'Ahha, I'm going to be locked up somewhere aren't I?'

Richard nodded.

"Take Her Majesty to my room and make sure that there are guard at every potential exit." He said in a cold tone.

Before she left the room she said to Genus 'Keep an eye on his wound, the poison was purple blood poison."

Genus nodded.

As Marika was walking out of the room and nearing Richard who still looked angry at her she then said. 'Don't look at me like that, I'm only dealing with the casualties that are showing because you have an vermin infestation. If anything my current health is because of you.'

'I highly advise Your Majesty to deal with this infestation asap, before it spreads.'

'And if you or Genus going to tattle on me to Luca, I will never speak to you again.'

Marika looked grumpy at Richard.

Richard looked at her seriously, and Marika knew someone was watching them.

'Please excuse me Your Majesty.' She said in a cold voice.

And Marika left the room.

The Minister looked at his colleagues who looked worried.

He asked them "What happened?"

Richard started to speak. "It so happened that Her Majesty was visiting doctor Niveus and then his student came in panicked because your life was in great danger. She made a very portend antidote, It can cure any to all poisons. But since it would normally takes 2 days to make it, she made it in 20 minutes. And now she is suffering from a backlash because of it."

The minister looked as white as Genus coat. "How bad is the backlash?"

"If she would have done this a week ago, it could have easily cost her, her life."

"But for now she only suffers some miner internal injuries." Genus said.

Genus told the minister to show him his wound. He saw the man was stabbed by I knife, by the shape of it, it was about the size of an letter opener.

"It seems that you are one lucky man, You got stabbed but it didn't hit any major vital spot. But you will be a little anemic for a day or two since the poison that was used was purple blood poison."

Richard then asked the minister if he could recall what happened before he got stabbed.

"I had a conversation with His Excellency about the Moon Festival and that we had send an invitation to Her Majesty and discussed if it would be a great idea to show her around the country and its historical and spiritual sites."

"An hour after that is messenger from the Prime Minister came by to deliver a message and he stabbed me. But because the knife was small and the wound wasn't that deep I didn't raise an alarm. But if I knew the knife was poisoned I would have called for the guards"

Richard was thinking and then said "When Her Majesty is rested up and has a clearance from doctor Niveus you may visit her."

"You tell her what happened and see what solution she has for you. And I want all of you to start investigate the Prime Minister, any information even if it may not look important I want it all before the end of tomorrow."

The others left the room and Richard asked Genus "How is his overall health?"

"It's all good as long as he doesn't do anything to aggravate his wound he should be good in a day or two."

Richard looked at the minister and said "You heard the doctor, rest for the upcoming two days and prepare yourself for an upcoming promotion." Richard then left the room.

While he was walked up to his private wing in the castle he asked a guard. "How many of you are guarding my wing?"

"There are 24 people inside the wing, 6 additional guards at you bed chamber, 4 on the balcony and under every window there are 2 guard."

Richard roughly counted that there would be somewhere between the 50 and the 60 soldiers guarding his wing.

Then the captain of the guard said "We took Her Majesty's safety as our number-one priority. Also His Excellency place a barrier around the wing so Her Majesty could recover in peace."

Richard laughed a little "Good job, keep up the good work until I deemed everything is fine again."

The captain bowed to Richard and the soldiers salute him.

When he arrived he saw Genus student sitting in a chair next to Marika who was sleeping.

Dantis was also in the room but he was sitting at the sofa and doing some paperwork.

Richard walked over to the young man first and asked how her condition was.

"It's all good, she is sleeping and her internal injuries are healing up. She should be fine at the end of the day, but I still think that my teacher should give the final verdict."

Richard nodded. "Go and take a rest. You had a lot to deal with today."

The young man nodded and bowed to Richard "Then I'll be leaving Your Majesty, call me if there is something wrong."

He looked at Marika who was sleeping peacefully. He then walked over to Dantis and set down.

"So why are you here?" Richard asked him.

"I had something for my son I would like her to pass to him, but when I heard what happened I decided to wait here until she woke up."

Dantis showed him a pendant with a picture of Dante's mother.

"Since he will never to be able to meet and know her, with this he can at least see what she had looked like."

"May I speak freely Your Majesty?"

Richard nodded.

Dantis looked at Marika "I'm so grateful to Her Majesty for adopting my son as her brother. Teaching, training and guide him all this time. I'm a failure as a father and couldn't do anything for my son. Even if he doesn't show it, I still can shake the feeling that he feel's disappointed in me."

'That's not true!'

Richard and Dantis turned around and saw Marika was up and getting of the bed.

'He told me he wanted to find you and meet with you'

'And did you forget his face yesterday? He cried tears of happiness when he saw you.'

'Have you also forgotten your son's words? He said better late the never.'

'So tell me how is Dante disappointed?'

Suddenly there was a knock on the door, Richard told the person to come in.

Genus cam in the room and asked "Is the little girl…"

"Oh look at you, you're up already, after what I have seen you should be still sleeping."

Richard saw Genus was wearing a white coat but Marika didn't seem to be bother by it just like the young man from earlier.

Genus saw a small hint of her behavior but she seem perfectly fine overall.

'Who did you bring with you?' She asked Genus with a slight hostility in her voice.

Her eyes also told him she was on her guard, and by hearing her she seem to even noticed somebody was outside of the room and not even in her field of vision she did seem to know that it was another doctor.

Genus then said "You remember what you told me about your new student how you wanted to show him how bad you could be right?"

Marika nodded.

Genus told the young man to come in and she smiled at him.

'I hope with what you're going to witness next won't scare you away from me and your apprenticeship with me.'

Marika then turned to Richard, 'You know what to do right?'

Richard sighted and nodded. "Why would you torture yourself like this?"

Marika then smiled 'Because if I'm going to be your wife every doctor needs to know my condition. So they can avoid me by choice.'

'Plus this is nothing more than an observation on level of smell I can tolerate at the moment. Because white coat over there was shocked by the fact that I was perfectly fine with his student at our first meeting.'

'But Azurite is going to Genus in 2 or 3 months. And since this boy want's to study herb an medicine he is going to transfer to me on the same day Azu is going to transfer to Genus. I just want to show my new student my condition and what to expect if he is around me and some smelly doctor is coming up to me.'

"Well that's a reasonable explanation." Richard patted her head.

Marika told the young man to go over to the side out of her field of vision and observer her very closely. She then gave Richard, Dantis, Genus and the young man a sedative that would either render her paralyzed for at least 15 minutes or just knock her out cold.

Marika took a deep breath and then nodded to Genus she was ready.

The first man that came in was a doctor who specialized in herb the smell of patients was very faint on him, Marika looked at him and was very calm. She walked over to him and shook his hand she talked to him for a bit about herbs and she would love to visit him next time to show her the herb garden and his research.

The next man who came in was an ordinary doctor, Marika tensed up a bit.

The man notice Marika's behavior so he was cautious and stood where he was. And let her calm down fist.

Marika appreciated this and took a few deep breaths and told the man to come a bit closer. When he was half a meter away from her she grabbed on to Richard and she said that she felt like she couldn't breathe.

The doctor notice her condition and walk back slowly until he was 2 meters away from her. He gave her space again so she could calm down again. After a few minutes she had calmed down a bit and apologize to the doctor and she was fine again.

The doctor was now standing in-front of her and crouched down to her.

He slowly and gently took her hands and said "It's alright, you did a great job. And from what I heard about your condition this is already a big step forward."

"I think it's always for the best that a patient is calm while we treat them so that we can prevent any other problems that could come along because a patient is anxious."

Marika looked at the man and asked 'What is the most important rule in medicine?'

"No matter the situation you must always stay calm, so you can make the best judgment for the treatment of the patient."

Marika smiled and nodded.

The man than let go of Marika's hand and whispered something to her that make her laugh.

'Well that was all because of me.'

The man smiled, "Well I'm just glad you two seem to get along fine now."

'Well he worked hard and earned my trust.'

The man bowed and left the room.

Richard then looked at her and asked "How are you feeling?"

'I need a small break and some fresh air.'

Genus nodded and walked over to Marika and took her to the balcony.

And told the others to stay there because there was something he need to discuss with her in privet.

Marika breathe in the fresh air 'So what was it that you can't talk about with the others present?'

"Well it has something to do with your bonding spell that connects you with Kevin and Dante."

'Ohh what is it?'

"Well the day you got attacked by the assassins and were taken to the greenhouse… It seemed that Dante and Kevin could feel what you were feeling during your lovemaking session with the Master."

"Dante could grasp what he was feeling, but Kevin didn't seem to understand it."

"So I asked Dante if he had felt the same feeling when you were in Ignis Kingdome at the time of the engagement party, but it didn't seem so."

Marika looked at Genus 'So you want to know if distance plays a role in it or that because of my awakening my spell got stronger? And if so you and Dante want me to sever the connection with Kevin?"

Genus nodded.

'Uhm…Well I guess if my spell got stronger because of the awakening I could sever the connection. But little Kevin will absolutely feel said and left out. Maybe I can adjust the spell but I need to find a written version of the spell'

'Well since The Moon Kingdom is half the distance from the mansion then Ignis Kingdom , I could try to make a small experiment out of this. If they feel the same think while I have a love making session with my husband the we know it's the spell got stronger, if the feel it less then it's the distance. But either way this spell need to be tweaked.'

"Well let me know when your planning on doing your little experiment and…"

'Today, and highly likely tonight.'

"Alright, I'll make sure to be at the mansion and at least inform Dante about it."

'By the way that doctor just now was your father right?'

"Huh… How did you noticed that?"

'Well even thought he was wearing a disguise I noticed when he spoke to me and said that he was glad we were getting along.' She smiled

Genus started to laugh, "You really are a sensitive girl and can even tell by the slights of hint's"

'Then please give this to you dad and tell him that he doesn't need to hide from me next time we meet.'

Marika gave him a key with a small pouched tied to it.

"What's this?"

'It's the key to the medical wing of my palace, Azu and Luca have one too, and here is yours.'

Genus sighed and smiled "Sure thing I'll relay the message, but what's in the pouch?"

'Nothing much… just a few sent absorbing balls just in case.'

"Are you ready for the last two visitors?"

Marika nodded.

Marika and Genus got inside and closed the balcony doors.

"Did you two poke fun at each other?"

Marika and Genus looked at each other

"Did I do that?"

'No…'

'But honey I need your help with something tonight so…'

"Alright."

Marika smiled.

Genus then opened the door and Marika tensed up rapidly, she was on high alert. She looked viciously at the door.

A murderous presents was coming from her. And as soon as the man was in the doorway she snapped.

Richard casted a chaining spell.

The young doctor saw it all happen and stayed absolutely still. He was not scared but surprised how bad she could handle a doctor. He felt very lucky she wasn't like that to him when they first met.

Marika struggled against the chaining spell.

Genus closed the door and the man who just entered the room was cocky and just walked up straight to Marika.

Genus then also walked over and stopped the man half a meter away from Marika.

Genus walked over to her and asked her "Do you want to kill him?"

"Hey that's not helping here!" Richard shouted.

Marika looked at Genus with murderous eyes.

'Where did you find him?' she asked viciously

"I found him here in this castle."

Marika was struggling really hard and Richard spell was halfway of breaking.

Dantis was ready whenever the spell would break and cast a chaining spell.

'LET ME GO!'

"Why?" Genus asked.

'I need to kill him!'

"Is that because he was the second doctor who tortured you when you were a child?"

"Marika? How many doctors tortured you when you were 5 years old?" Richard asked her.

'There were 5 of them.'

'NOW LET ME GO!'

The chaining spell broke but Dantis casted a new one her.

The doctor want to come closer to Marika but Genus stopped him "I wouldn't go any closer to her if you want to live. You have already heard what happened to your friend in Ignis. He was lucky enough that she was the size of a 3 year old at the time. If she gets loos now your dead with one blow for sure."

But the man didn't listen to him and stood in-front of Marika and grabbed her by the face. "Well look at you, your all grown up now."

Marika rage and blood lust intensified so bad that a few guards came in to the room. They were shocked by what they saw. How could anybody treat Her Majesty like this.

"I would love to hear those screams you made back then, again."

He then pulled a scalpel from his pocket and drew a line across her face. But her wound healed instantly.

Richard started to lose it and threw the man to the other side of the room.

He looked at her and hugged her and said " I'm sorry that I'm always so slow, if you want to kill him I'll grand you that wish if this helps you to get some closure I'll will hunt the other 3 down for you and bring them to you."

'It's alright she said softly'

The man stood up and walked over to them again. Richard told the soldiers to open the balcony doors.

The soldiers hurried to open the doors and Richard grab the man by the throat. And looked at him murderously.

"If you survive this the you better leave this Kingdom and pray you will never see either me or her because we will kill you."

And Richard threw the man out of the room on to the balcony.

Richard told Dantis to remove the spell from her.

"Sweetie do whatever you like to him, you have all the right to do so."

Richard let go of her but she didn't move instead she said 'Take that man to the dungeon and chain him down.'

They soldiers took the man away.

Just as the soldiers were about to pass by Marika she stopped them.

She looked at the man viciously and smirked at him and said 'Let's see who is going to scream later.'

'Take him away.'

When the man left the room Richard wanted to lash out to Genus but Marika stopped him.

'It's fine, I'm fine now.'

She then turned to Genus.

'How did you find him?'

"Well after the whole Ignis incident I remember a doctor who had talked about a case of a little girl, so I checked the archives and found him."

"2 out of the last three are located in the Sun Kingdom, the last one…"

'I know where the last one is but he is probably dead by now.'

"How so?"

He resided in the human world… Consider the time different between this world and the human world he should be dead.'

Suddenly there was a knock on the door and Genus opened the door.

A female doctor came in to the room the smell on her was heavy but Marika didn't react to it.

The female doctor saw Marika wasn't reacting to her presence and she walk over with a cup of calming tea.

She gave it to Marika and said 'I heard the commotion earlier, here drink this it will help you to calm down a bit. You have been through a lot today haven't you?'

Marika put down the cup of tea and tears started to fall from her eyes. The female doctor hugged her and stroke her hair.

'You did a good job, trying to keep yourself together. It only shows how strong you are and you want to recover. Don't be impatient and give yourself time to heal.'

After she was done with crying she was about to fall asleep.

'You exhausted aren't you? Get some sleep.'

The doctor place her head on her lap and kept stroking her hair.

'So… what's your prognoses Genus?'

"Well as long as the doctors fallow her instruction on when they can come closer to her it should be fine."

"But you need to visit her again since she was so exhausted from her last meeting."

'That's no problem, I think she came a long way already it's now a matter of trust.'

'She seem to be fine with you and your student and father. Also the herb specialist wasn't a problem either.'

Marika then turned in to a 5 year old child. The female doctor and the student were surprised by this and looked at Genus who didn't seem surprised at all.

'Did this happen before?'

"Yes, first we thought it was because her body was most of the time unstable before her last awakening, but now she is a fully awakened dragon I can safely say it's a way for her to deal with physical and mental stress."

'But wouldn't she be more vulnerable in this child's body?'

While the doctor asked Genus that question Richard picked Marika up and held her close to his chest and set down with her and stroked her head.

"What we may perceive as vulnerable its actually the opposite."
