Chapter 390 - Healing Completely

Theodore returned to Adeline's private chamber with Agnes and Sybil in under a minute. He instructed Agnes to heal Adeline's wounds completely.

And then he teleported Sybil to the King's private chamber where he was being guarded by his Royal Guards. The guards almost jumped at Theodore and Sybil thinking that they were the vampires.

"It's me!" Theodore raised his palm and gestured the guards to calm down. And he informed them, "I have brought a witch to help His Majesty to heal his wound."

Theodore glanced at the healer who looked a little offended and said, "I'm sure the wound will eventually heal but I don't want the King to be bedridden for several days when his wounds can be healed within a minute or two."

Theodore then introduced Sybil to everyone, "Her name is Sybil. And she is mute. I'm sure she won't need anything but if she does then be cooperative to her."

"Yes, Your Highness," the guards bowed and replied simultaneously.

Theodore then instructed Sybil, "Heal His Majesty and wait for me to come by. I will teleport both of you back home."

Sybil gave a soft smile and nodded. And she instantly seated herself beside King Dragomir to begin casting a healing spell.

Theodore went back to Adeline's room. By the time he was back, Agnes was already working on the healing spell on Adeline.

He heard a knock on the door and then went to open it. The Royal Guards who were looking after Adeline were there as requested by Theodore. He asked one of them to call the personal maids of Adeline and asked the rest of them to wait in the meeting room.

And he walked to Adeline's private chamber to see the progress of the spell.

He stood near the window and observed Adeline's wound closely. And he thought to himself, "The wound is disappearing pretty quickly… I think I should suggest King Dragomir to let the Mystic Coven stay inside or near the Palace. Their services will come pretty handy."

The sound of someone running inside the room was heard. Theodore thought that it was Adeline's personal maid but it was the healer who had come running to give the herbal tonic to the Princess.

That healer saw that some middle-aged lady in a white dress was sitting beside the Princess and was mumbling some language he did not understand. From the way she was holding out her palms near the Princess' neck, he jumped to the conclusion that she was about to strangle the Princess.

"Hey, who are you? And what do you think you are–" he abruptly stopped shouting when he saw that the wound on the Princess' neck had almost healed as though she wasn't hurt in the first place.

And he was stunned to see that this lady was doing something to those same deep wounds that he had stitched so diligently and was making them disappear.

His knees gave out at the thought of potentially losing his job and he stumbled backward. Luckily, Theodore was quick enough to appear behind him and catch him and the bowl of medicine.

"I believe this is for the Princess?" Theodore asked that healer as he sniffed the tonic. He wrinkled his nose in disgust because the smell was pungent. 

"Yes, Your Highness. It will be good for her health," the healer replied while hanging his head low.

Theodore gave a nod and dismissed the healer, "Thank you for helping Adeline. If other medicines are to be fed to her then feel free to prepare them and bring them here. If not then you may take your rest."

The healer peeked at Adeline's neck and now the wound had disappeared without any trace. The lady was also done mumbling. He then shook his head and replied, "Her wound seems to be already healed. So, other than this herbal tonic, she won't be needing anything else. I will be on my way."

That healer left the room feeling grateful towards Theodore. When he had heard that Theodore was the Devil, he had thought that he would be maniacal and cruel. However, he found the Prince to be the complete opposite of what he had imagined.

The maids came running inside as the healer was exiting the room. To make sure that they wouldn't cry or make any noises, Theodore stood near the door of the private chamber and calmly introduced himself to them, "Greetings to both of you. I'm sure Adeline has told you about me. I am Prince Theodore, her fiancé. It is nice to meet both of you."

Both of the maids kept on staring at Theodore for a few seconds, not knowing if they were imagining things or if some angel was in front of them.

Theodore pressed his lips together and ordered them to make it less awkward for both the parties, "Adeline was wounded earlier but there is nothing to worry about now. Her wounds have completely healed. But her dress is very dirty. I would appreciate it if you would clean her up and help her change into a fresh and comfortable dress."

"Okayes," Hawisa blurted out a word that didn't make much sense while Hawisa just kept on staring at Theodore as though she was trying to register his face in her mind.

Theodore forced an awkward smile and turned around to see Agnes. "Will Adeline be okay now?"

"Yes, she will be fine. She will wake up after some time." Agnes glanced at the bowl that Theodore had kept aside on the table and suggested to him, "I think the maids can feed that tonic to her. My magic can only do so much. That tonic will help her restore her energy."

Theodore gave a nod and turned to see those stunned maids again. And he directed them while pointing at the bowl, "That is a tonic that the healer prepared. Feed it to her and make sure she won't choke."

Hawisa managed to give a bow while Osanna was still giving a stare to Theodore.

Theodore went outside to the meeting room and informed the guards, "The personal maids will take care of the Princess. Meanwhile, stay alert and be on your guard. Let no one in. And also ask her guards to surround this quarter and keep on patrolling."

Theodore thought of teleporting the witches back and visiting Hell to relieve himself of the anger, frustration, agony, and everything that he had been suppressing till now. "I would hate it if I lost my calm in front of these humans," he thought to himself while getting mentally prepared.

"I don't think any stray vampires are lurking around in Wyverndale… But let's not take chances," Theodore thought to himself and then informed those guards out loud, "I will head out for a while. Just in case those vampires are still around, I will have some of my followers stationed inside and around the Palace for the time being."

"We would appreciate that Your Highness," one of the guards replied, not knowing what kinds of followers Theodore had.

So as not to scare the guards, Theodore clarified to them, "All of my followers are from Hell and they might look somewhat intimidating."
