"Boss! Please, they are not fully recovered yet and making them play outside might lead their recovery slower!" Panicking while seeing his two patients stretched their bodies and were ready to make a move, Mariel Min desperately pleaded to Seraphina who was now languidly sitting on a stool inside the acting infirmary.
"Hey, you heard the doctor's advice, yeah?" Instead of reconsidering Mariel Min's argument, Seraphina glanced at Leon that was indian sitting on his bed with his eyes closed while Rex that was done stretching his neck and then stared on the window again— as if checking if the party outside was done or was still ongoing.
"Bambina, you are a better doctor than him though." When Leon opened his eyes, an unreadable glint of excitement flashed across his eyes before a sneer formed on the side of his lips. Of course, his remarks made Mariel Min frown as his brows twitched.
'Boss? A better doctor? Since when?!' Inside Mariel Min's mind, he could not help but complained and question what Leon said as all Seraphina did all this time was to occupy herself with whatever scheme she was planning. Therefore, how come they call her a better doctor? What's his use anyway if they don't listen to him?
"Well, don't go telling me after that you feel sick alright?" Chuckling, Seraphina cleaned her hands as she indirectly told them that she was not the person responsible if their wounds reopen this exercise.
"Boss! Mr. Leon, Sir Rex you must—" Just as Mariel Min spat their names in a high tone, Leon hopped out on his bed and his feet landed with an almost zero noise which abruptly interrupted the distressed doctor's plea.
"Gotta go. Jack will take all the fun." With that said note, Leon slowly strode towards the opened window. Since his body was petite, he easily got outside and in one swift move, he disappeared like a real-life ninja.
On the other hand, Rex wordlessly strode towards the door as he wasn't as excited as Leon to use the window. Moreover, he still has some class and dignity left on him not to show that his body had been itching to freely move.
"Take care Rex~" Waving her hand, Seraphina brightly smiled as she watched Rex leave the room by the door. Rex didn't respond and only raised his hand to slightly waving his hand until he completely left the room.
Now, there was only Dragon, Seraphina, and the speechless Mariel Min left on the room. In an instant, the room fell into pure silence as none of them utter a single word for quite some time. Glancing at the distraught doctor, Dragon straightened his posture that was initially leaning on the wall and strode towards Seraphina who was just sitting on the stool with a bright smile.
Passing by the doctor, Dragon tapped his shoulder and spoke in his deep, hoarse voice. "Relax, that only means you have to watch over them more." With that said note, the side of Dragon's lips curled into a smirk before he perched on the other chair near Seraphina.
"What…" Unable to understand what the legendary head of the triad meant, Mariel Min's distracted eyes altered from his majestic side profile to Seraphina who had her eyes to the direction of the window.
"What I meant is the literal meaning. Don't overthink, doctor." Without looking away from Seraphina's unsmiling side profile, Dragon sensed the confused doctor.
It was not like Seraphina told him whatever she has in her busy and creative mind. Still, for some reason, he understood her actions more the longer he stayed with her. After all, although Seraphina was not the carefree woman he met years ago, she still has her unconventional way to show her concerns to the people she cares about.
"Doctor, if I were you, get some sleep because you might not get one later." Slowly, Seraphina retracted her gaze away from the window and then turned to face Mariel Min's completely confused countenance with the back of her hand supporting her jaw.
"Boss… I don't understand. You ordered them to go outside and now…" Through a murmur, Mariel Min felt like he would turn mad analyzing his new boss's thought process first. It was more stressful when Seraphina personally got herself involve as his new colleagues always listen to her words.
"That means those two will finish where they left off." From the outside of the window, Tito's huge built blocked all the view as his elbows rested on the window sill with his head lowered to see the people inside the room. He had been hearing them from the outside while watering his beloved flowers as Mariel Min's voice could reach the next town.
Upon hearing Tito's strong, firm, and brief explanation, Mariel Min slightly creased his brows. Through his short time with them as their doctor, Mariel Min got to know who had caused their serious injuries. To his doctor's perspective, their wounds seemed they had fought in a great war as every wound was near to fatal and if it got a little deeper, it would surely kill them.
To his surprise, fortunately, Tito was the kindest among them as he explained that Leon and Rex fought on a one on one battle which led them to their current state. Therefore, if what Tito said was true, and Seraphina seemed to know what will happen, then, why would she let them continue to fight? Surely, the longer he stayed with Seraphina, the more he understood that she was crazily unpredictable!
No, she's crazy! Period.
"Sh*t!" Grinding his teeth, Mariel Min did not dare ask Seraphina as he knew, deep down, that asking her would be useless. Hence, he chose to take her advice and rushed outside and goes to his room to take a rest instead.
"Haha, how cute." Chuckling, Dragon observed Mariel Min glided his way out with panic plastered across his whole face.
"Boss, I don't understand why you let those two get unleashed." Meanwhile, although Tito got the gist of what Seraphina wanted, he too could not understand the reason behind it. Thus, instead of assuming, he decided to ask to enlighten him.
"Cutest, you think too much. Those two wouldn't get overboard but…" Pausing, Seraphina unhurriedly stood from her seat. "... but if they did, that's fine as well. They shouldn't recover that fast especially Leon." The bitter glint that flashed across her eyes wasn't overlooked by Dragon and Tito's keen eyes as they finally understood her reason.
Leon recovering means more danger because he would surely find Luciano. Although Leon was the most skilled and the most terrifying among all of Seraphina's confidants, however, with the old Luciano, there was no telling if his usual reckless behavior would triumph against that cunning man.
