Chapter 283 - The Surgery

After leaving the royal palace, Isidorus went to the infirmary where Nefasky was being treated. The healer had given her several potions but she was still unconscious. Nefasky's mother had been crying while Mihr looked extremely worried. He had contacted ministry to complain to them about Zephyr but the problem was that the ministry couldn't do anything since there was nothing that was out of the curriculum, hence Zephyr couldn't be implicated. 

Mihr was now at a total loss. Nefasky was conscious when she had returned from the academy, but she had become unconscious in the evening just after taking a shower. A maid discovered her and brought the attention of the household. 

When Mihr saw Isidorus, he took him out of the room and threw a barrage of questions at him. "Have you met Adrianna? Students said that she had also gone into Nefasky's cell. You must tell me what happened. I suspect that it was Adrianna who tried to harm Nefasky because she thinks Nefasky is her rival for the crown. However, if Adrianna has stooped to this level, I am going to make sure that she gets the worst punishment for harming my daughter and that too so nefariously that you cannot even imagine. I have been trying to contact Zephyr but he isn't responding. Isidorus, there is something really sinister going here and you must stop it." 

Isidorus took a deep breath. He informed in a low voice, "Vikra entered Nefasky's cell."

Mihr was horrified when he heard that name. "What? This can't be." After all that he had done for Vikra and Cy, this was what that soulless creature did? Mihr had been extremely cooperative with Vikra to get inside the wizard kingdom for giving fruition to his purposes. Cy had been his friend for so long and for him he had taken risks. But this is what they gave in return. They used his daughter. 

"Why?" he asked in a choked voice. 

"He wanted to meet Adrianna and lure her into joining him. When he heard the spell "Aanimi Arcaa" from the grounds of the academy, he knew this was his opportunity to meet her without getting noticed by anyone."

"Even if he met her there, who was the one who harmed her? Did anyone of them mess with her insides? You know that it is not allowed to mess with anyone's cell!" shouted Mihr. 

"That I am not ascertain of because all Adrianna told me was to send you this message that Vikra was the one who entered Nefasky's cell," replied Isidorus. 

"If she was trying to send me a message, does she mean that she didn't do it? Is she trying to show her loyalty to me?" asked Mihr. "Is she acting innocent here? I want her presence right now Isidorus!" He was getting impatient and just wanted to know who harmed his daughter. 

Suddenly, a loud shriek was heard from inside the room and the two of them ran back. It was Nefasky who was screaming. Two wizards had held her hand to prevent her from falling down the bed. Her mother had closed her mouth in horror by putting her hands on her mouth as fresh tears ran through her eyes.

"Go away! Who are you? Adrianna! Help me!" Nefasky shouted and then her body went limp. She started murmuring, "Help Adria… help me…" 

Mihr couldn't control his emotions. He went out of the room only to shed a tear. His daughter was subject to mental torture now. After Nefasky shouted, he was clear about one thing, Adrianna didn't do anything. She only helped. Zephyr, being a teacher couldn't have done anything. 

Isidorus didn't know what to do, so he went out shaking his head. As he was walking out of the room, he saw Adrianna walking in the infirmary. He was a little surprised but he nodded. There were ten other wizards and witches who walked in with her. Fleur was walking right behind her. 

When Mihr saw her, he couldn't believe it. Adrianna did not utter a word instead she just walked inside. He followed her. 

She addressed the healer, "We have to take her to the human realm where they will have to perform brain surgery on her."

"Brain surgery? What is that?" asked the healer. 

Adrianna knew that Vikra had tampered with Nefasky's veins inside and a little blood had oozed out, which meant that there could be a blood clot. 

"I am suspecting that there is a blood clot inside her brain, which needs to be extracted as soon as possible. For that she has to undergo medical treatment. Surgery has to be performed otherwise it may cause irreparable damage to her," said Adrianna. Her interactions with the human world had taught her numerous things. 

Mihr was willing to do anything for his daughter at this point of time. "Whatever that is, let's go!" he ordered his men. He turned to look at Adrianna and asked, "Where can we get that done?"

"In the town hospital," she replied. Then she turned to look at Isidorus, "Niiya's father is a doctor. He will help you if you know him." 

Isidorus didn't waste anytime and he got sucked in a vortex. In the next one hour, Nefasky was taken to the hospital in the human realm where a team of neurosurgeons started preparing themselves for the operation. Niiya's father had to help Isidorus as per the treaty.  

In the initial reports, it was established that Nefasky had a blood clot. However, it was minor and could be extracted. The team took her for surgery immediately. The operation lasted for about three hours in which Nefasky's blood clot was sucked out very carefully. When the operation ended, the doctors informed that the surgery was done successfully. 

All the wizards and witches that were present there were mesmerized by the way humans could save lives. They thought that they were the most powerful, but humans were no less. As soon as the doctor informed them about Nefasky, Mihr thanked them profusely. At the back of his mind he knew that had Adrianna not suggested this method of treatment, Nefasky would have perhaps never recovered. He had to personally thank Adrianna. It was time to jump loyalties. 

Meanwhile, as soon as Adrianna saw that they had all gone away to the human realm, she walked back into the palace through the portal Fleur had created. To her pleasant surprise, when she reached her room, she saw Dmitri standing in the balcony, sipping wine.
