Episode 244- You have to stop using your abilities or you will die!!"
She was getting paler, and weaker by the second, and he knew that if she were to lose more blood, she would die.
What Levis didn't know was that no matter what he did, Eugene wasn't able to see, to hear, or to feel as her senses were completely dulled and gone. She was still conscious however she was in a dark hole.
Levis gripped Eugene hard and saw from the corner of his eyes Elsm heading straight towards the white light and a wave of blood following after her. But he could do nothing. Even if Levis hit Eugene's neck to make her conscious, Eugene did not stop bleeding as if the purpose of her blood was to only follow her words even if its master died.
"U… Uncle." A soft voice spoke out in the midst of the chaos. Elsm was long gone, and the white light indicating was also gone.
Duke Rodriguez knelt beside Euria, who he was tending to, to hear what she was saying. He glanced at Levis for a bit and then back to Euria. He bit his lips, carried Euria, and headed over to Louis.
Euria hovered her hands above Eugene's head whose eyes were open, but had no light in them, "Freeze."
As soon as she said that, Eugene's blood seemed to freeze as if it could no longer flow out. Euria's entire body trembled from the power she just used, despite the fact that she shouldn't have used any more power.
Her eyes met Levis's shocked eyes and she whispered, "Please… take care of… sister." Were Euria's last words before her palm lowered lifelessly and she fell into deep unconsciousness.
"Euria?" Levis reached his hands over to Euria, and when he felt a breath, he sighed in relief. Despite the fact that Euria had just been pierced in the stomach, Euria did not lose a massive amount of blood. He stared at Euria for a good second before nodding to Duke Rodriguez to carry her. One of his arms reached underneath Eugene's knees and he carried the lifeless Eugene.
"There's no time to waste. We have to bring both of them to the hospital as soon as possible."
Levis and Duke Rodriguez mounted their horses and galloped back to the capital city main hospital. Louis trailed close by from behind.

Eugene walked forward through a white substance that looked like fog. It covered the whole area, and no matter where she looked, it was covered in this fog. She had no destination and only walked forward for the sake of it. Her mind was blank, however, she did not stop to pause.
"EUGE…" She heard a distinctive familiar voice.
"Eugeneia!! You have to stop using your abilities or you will die!!"
In a snap of a second, she was no longer in that foggy place and was brought back to reality. Her body was unmovable as if she was glued to something, and she did not have it in her to think about why her body was heavy or why she was feeling a certain way until the familiar voice she heard earlier on shouted again.
"EUGENIA! STOP USING YOUR ABILITIES!"
Eugene did not know who the person shouting was and did not understand what the person was saying. However, she followed the voice accordingly.
She repeated what the voice said and almost instantaneously her body felt lighter. But because it happened so suddenly, she felt light-headed and fell unconscious again.
She would go in and out of consciousness like this over the course of a few days. It was as if her body was protecting herself from doing anything in order to recover. And slowly but surely, her body gradually felt as light as it used to be, and soon she was able to think clearly. In her sleep, she could hear Moniqua crying out loud. Crying because her entire skin had been stripped off from her body. Crying that she was severely hurt. Though she didn't know how bad it was, she kept Moniqua words to mind. And when she was able to think clearly, she commanded her blood for a full recovery knowing that it would make her unconscious for 1 or 2 full days.
Eugene could feel that it was sunny outside because of how warm her body felt. However, no matter what she did, she was unable to wake up. It was green all around her. No doubt that it was in the forest she had just been in. And like what transpired back then, she dreamt of a figure stabbing through Euria's stomach as well as smiling creepily. The figure, however, brought Euria over with it through the straight line of light, which did not happen in real life. And just like that, both of them disappeared.
The despair of being left behind woke Eugene up from her nightmare almost immediately. Her entire body was covered in a cold sweat, and her bed was damp as a result.
"Haaa… Haaa." She breathed in and out loudly as her hand reached up to her hair to run through it.
Eugene glanced around and finally noticed where she was. She was back home, in her own room. Her eyes caught onto red hair and her gaze lowered.
It was Aernest sleeping on the chair, however, his upper body was on her bed as if he was guarding her.
'Aernest…' This child has been through a lot. Eugene felt that it was Aernest who had been through the most ever since the attack at the Veria mountain. He must've gone through the same feelings she went through when she found out how powerless she was. How powerless she was for Euria to be taken right in front of her eyes. Though it was harsh that she left Aernest when she went to retrieve Euria, she felt that it was for the best even if hurt Aernest's feelings.
Eugene's eyes twitched slightly, 'Euria…' She got out of bed quickly. She made sure not to wake Aernest up as she left the room to go to Euria's room.
The hallway was lit up brightly by the sun shining through from the window.
Eugene was anxious as she opened the door to Euria's room without knocking. However, when she headed inside and saw a figure asleep on the bed, she paused and exhaled in relief. She walked slowly to Euria and sat quietly on the chair by her bed.
Euria seemed to be in a deep sleep hence Eugene didn't dare make any noises and only observed Euria from where she sat. Euria seemed to be peacefully asleep which made Eugene even more relieved.
Eugene slowly got out of her chair, trying not to make any noises, and looked around for anything sharp. She found a clean ink pen and gently poked her fingers with it.
"Recover." Eugene wished as she dripped blood into Euria's mouth. She knew from before that a little blood goes a long way, however, she had a feeling that Euria needed more blood than necessary hence she made sure Euria had digested a good amount of blood. She dripped an amount enough to save 30 people's lives before pulling her fingers away.
She watched Euria for a little while longer before deciding to head back to her room. Aernest was still sleeping in an uncomfortable position hence she picked him up and put him in bed. After that, she got on the bed and laid beside him as well.
And just like that, Eugene headed into dreamland again, not waking up for another 2 days.
"Why is she not waking up?" A voice belonging to a female spoke out. Eugene could hear the familiar voice filled with anxiety.
"Her body is very exhausted. It is not unusual that she has yet to wake up." Another female voice could be heard. Eugene could tell who this was immediately. This person was the head physician of the Veria house, the physician who pulled her out of Moniqua's womb.
"Euria as well… What if… What if sister is in a coma like Euria?!" Asked Aernest whose voice was filled with pain.
'...What?' Eugene's heart dropped and she stopped breathing.
"Honey..." Moniqua called out to Aernest. Her voice seemed to be filled with despair and she was unable to say anything else which made Eugene shocked to her core.
Eugene opened her eyes immediately, and she turned her head to the source of voices. Moniqua, Aernest, and the physician who jumped at Eugene who suddenly turned towards them.
"What is... with Euria?" Her voice was hoarse and cracked as she asked.
"Eu...Eugeneia? You are awake?" Moniqua's voice trembled as she kneeled down in front of Eugene's bed. Her eyes sparkled in tears as she tried to grab a hold of Eugene's hands only to be stopped.
"What happened to Euria?" Her voice was unintentionally harsh as she stared straight into Moniqua's red eyes which widened following her words.
