"Keith should be safe now. Has a message been sent to Viscount Drew yet?" Head Healer Berk questioned.
"Yes, we sent it the moment he was brought here. I believe one of the guards accompanying Young Lord Keith has taken it." The Junior healer answered.
"Hmm… alright." Head Healer Berk responded.
Lucius noted the fact that Berk had not used a title for Keith when he spoke about him. He was reminded of the status of the Head Healer once again.
'If even Count Gabriel respects the healer then it's obvious the Viscount would do the same. It's a boon for Baron Dowland to have him in his city.' Lucius thought to himself.
Lucius continued watching Keith and noted any changes in him. He could still feel the faint presence of hell energy in Keith's body and it was hidden deep within it.
'Will the hell energy not do anything? That's strange. Usually, it is volatile for most creatures.' Lucius wondered.
But just as he thought this, he felt a strange ripple of energy coming from Keith.
"It's time…" Lucius murmured and took a few steps back.
Kiana who had heard Lucius faintly, wondered why he had said that. Him stepping back only confused her even more.
"AAAAAAAAAAARRRRRGGGGGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!!!!!"
Out of nowhere, an ear piercing shriek was let out by Keith.
Everyone in the room, except for Lucius were startled by this while one of the junior healers even fell on his back due to being startled.
"What's happening!?" The senior healers said before hurriedly checking Keith who was now flailing around on the bed.
"NOOO!!! STOP IT !!!! BURRNSSSSSSSS!!!!" Keith started wailing.
Head Healer Berk who had been calm and kept a composed demeanor showed a surprised for the first time.
"STOP!" Head Healer Berk ordered.
The two senior healers were stunned by his words and wondered why he had asked such a thing when the patient in front of them was suffering. The hands of the senior healer were stopped about an inch from Keith, when something happened.
~clench~
Keith had now opened his eyes that were bloodshot and grabbed onto the nearest person to him. The second healer who had the bubble like gift.
"STOP THIS!!! END IT!!!" Keith shouted, his voice turning hoarse.
~CRACK~
"AHHHHH!" The Senior healer cried in pain as his hand was crushed by Keith with a sickening crunch.
Lucius couldn't help but raise his brows upon seeing this.
"Rudimentary Muscle Strengthening? Interesting…" Lucius muttered.
'Didn't expect he would be able to do something like this… amplifying his muscles using hell energy even while barely being in control… even some talented members of the Barrom clan would find this difficult.' Lucius thought.
But along with this, Lucius took a few more steps back as he anticipated something more.
"Get back Kiana, Donald." Lucius ordered. "And get your gift ready Kiana."
Kiana looked at Lucius and saw the glint in Lucius's eyes. Then without questioning she raised her hand and activated Stone Sniper, creating a small needle in front of her palm. She could guess what Lucius wanted and thus did not act right away, waiting for his input.
"GET THE RESTRAINTS!" Head Healer Berk ordered.
The nurses rushed to get the restraints while the senior healer struggled under the vice grip of Keith.
"How is he doing this?! He's supposed to be under sedatives!" The first senior healers said feeling lost.
"Quick, get me Noctus Bane!" Head Healer Berk spoke.
But no one responded to his words. The junior healers were too shocked due to Keith, while the nurses had gone to get the restraints.
"I SAID GET ME NOCTUS BANE!!" Head Healer Berk roared.
The junior healers broke out of their stupor, while the senior healer attempted to pry the other senior healer's hand free from Keith's grasp.
"Leave him! Let go of him Keith!" The senior healer spoke.
But Keith was in no state to listen to it and only tightened his grip.
"Here it is, head healer Berk!" one of the junior healers passed a small vial.
Lucius gazed at it and saw that it had a single small flower kept in it. The flower's petals were rolled up and it looked to be dried. Head Healer took the vial and opened its cap.
"THE RESTRAINTS ARE HERE!" The nurses who had just entered the room along with guards announced.
"Quick! Hold him down and apply the restraints!" head Healer Berk ordered, feeling a bit relieved upon the appearance of the guards and nurses.
There were four guards accompanying the nurses and each of them held down a limb. The three nurses tossed the restraints which were nothing but large leather belts across the body of Keith and under the bed.
Keith still struggled on the bed and it was getting hard for the guards to hold him.
"Does he have some physical gift that can increase his strength? How is he so strong?" one of the junior healers questioned.
"No! From what we were reported, his gift allows him to increase the power of his kicks. It does not have this kind of effect!" The senior healer who was freed due to the guard's appearance spoke.
His hand was still broken, but surprisingly he was not letting it show on his face now. He instead created a large bubble that surrounded his hand where it had been broken.
"How is this possible then? Is this pure strength?" The junior healers wondered.
No one could answer this question except for one person in this room and he was certainly not going to do that. Soon, the guards and nurses managed to restrain Keith but even then it was not enough.
Keith was now shaking the entire bed with his movement.
~THUD~
~THUD~
~CLANG~
~CLANG~
The metal frame of the bed shook and made loud noises, as Keith struggled with his full might.
'This is quite unusual… the amount of Hell energy I gave him should have run out by now. There is no way it can amplify his strength for this long.' Lucius wondered.
