49 Aunt Reina
"Ding!"
Suddenly, Almita made a dinging sound, reporting,
<The function has been put in sealed for a while due to the overuse of the abilities. It'll be activated in a while.>
Sigh!
With a sigh, Ary mumbled,
"Well, fine then."
Swish!!
"Kashi/Ary!"
Suddenly, Mai and others appeared in the sky, flying toward Kashi and Ary.
"Hmm?"
Ary and Kashi reacted as they shifted their gaze to the top.
A smile formed on Ary's face. He mumbled,
"The fight is already over, and now they are coming..."
They landed on the ground, and Mai stepped forward, asking,
"Are you guys okay? Where is the demon?"
Sigh!
Kashi sighed after seeing her worry, asking,
"They are gone."
"They?"
The girls and Mike reacted.
"Hey, Senior. Isn't that a man? What do you mean by 'they'?"
Mike asked since he only saw Ginetano.
"Nah, there was a demoness as well. Well, besides that, what took you guys so long—?!"
Ary commented, but he halted as he saw the scrapes on the girls' bodies.
"Wait, are you guys—"
Ary asked before he could continue. Erica nodded, saying,
"Well, we were also fighting with the demon army back there."
"Huh?!"
Ary was left startled after hearing this.
He was startled by the statement, "demon army," which clearly indicated that there were many demons that they fought.
Then, he shifted his gaze to Kashi, who was musing in his thoughts after hearing Erica's testimony. As Ary asked,
"Senior, does that mean the demon that we killed had already sent the army to Miss Mai's realm so that she won't be able to come here and help us, right?"
14:59
"Hmmm...yeah. I think you're right."
Kashi agreed, then he raised his head, saying,
"That's why he knew that they wouldn't come."
Then, his gaze shifted to Mai as Kashi commented,
"Good job."
"....?!"
Unexpectedly, Mai blushed after hearing Kashi's compliment that she rarely heard.
She lowered her head, replying,
"Th-Thank you..."
Ary shifted his gaze to Erica and Mary, asking,
"By the way, would you guys please use your healing spell? I'm out of my usage for Flamal recovery."
"Ah, sure."
Erica replied, and Mary nodded.
They then send Ary their magical staffs, saying,
"Heal him, Arael/Mataton!"
Swoosh!!
The combo of green and blue flame surrounded Ary, and his wounds vanished.
Soon they did the healing for Kashi, Mai, Emily, and Mike.
"All done."
Erica said while showing them a smile.
"Huh? No, it's not. What about you two?"
Ary commented while pointing his index fingers at Erica and Mary.
"Ah, well... we can't be able to use healing on our own."
Erica replied while showing a weary smile.
"Ha? That's absurd!"
Ary reacted while frowning his eyebrows.
"They're not lying. It's true. This is the worst part of being a healer."
While folding his arms, Kashi replied.
"What? But it's odd, isn't it? How do they get healed?"
Ary asked.
Sigh!
Kashi sighed and glanced at Ary, saying,
"Let's go to the clinic in the heavenly realm for their treatment."
But before they could take any action,
*Chirp* *Chirp*
Suddenly, a bird came into Kashi's realm and fled toward Kashi.
Kashi raised his right hand and the bird sat on his palm, opening her mouth,
"Kashi."
Suddenly, Father Albert's voice was heard.
"Eeh?!"
Everyone except Mai and Kashi himself was left stunned after seeing the bird talking in the voice of Father Albert.
"Don't be surprised. This bird is like a voice communicator in your language."
Kashi said with a poker face as his gaze shifted to the bird. He said,
"Yes, Father."
"I sensed the demonic energy from your realm and the neighbouring realm. Are you and others okay?"
Father Albert asked for the information through that bird.
"Yes,"
Kashi said, and reported,
"There were demons, but luckily, we managed to overthrow them."
After hearing Kashi's testimony, Father Albert's anxious voice turned relaxed as he commented,
"I'm glad you all made it. Nevertheless, I have something for you. Come to the heavenly realm in my cabin. Also, there's someone who wanted to meet Ary."
"Wanted to meet me?"
In confinement, Ary repeated.
Who would it be that wanted to meet him?
"Yes,"
Father Albert replied, reporting,
"Come to my cabin. You'll understand."
Then, the bird closed her mouth, which means that Father had disconnected the communication.
Kashi raised his arm and the bird flew away.
While lowering his arm, he said,
"Let's go then."
"Yeah."
Everyone replied except Ary, since he was pondering,
'Someone wanted to meet me. Who will that be?'
Then, by using teleportation magic, they returned to the heavenly realm.
Swish!
With a swishing sound, they teleported into the hallway of Warrior Cottage.
"Hmm?"
A person reacted as he saw them arrive.
"Hey, guys."
He said as he stepped toward them.
"Hmm?"
Ary and others reacted as they shifted their gaze to the left and saw Galiriothoxmus there.
"How was your...training...?"
Galiriothoxmus asked as his voice trailed off as he saw the wounds and dust on their clothes.
Although, their wounds were healed, the imprint of blood was still there. Also, the wounds of Erica and Mary were there as well.
"What the hell?! Are you guys training or having a bloody battle?"
Galiriothoxmus spoke with a startling voice while stepping forward toward them.
"Ah, well."
Kashi called out then, while rubbing the back of his neck. He added,
"We just ended up fighting some Demons."
"Huuuuuh?!"
Galiriothoxmus reacted in a nasal voice.
Before any of the warriors reacted to his shocked voice, Galiriothoxmus roared,
"Emergency!!! We have seven casualties here!!!"
"Eeeh?!"
The Warriors reacted in shock and perplexed after seeing Galiriothoxmus call for an emergency.
"H-Hey, Galirio—"
Ary called to stop Galiriothoxmus from continuing this drama, but before he could react any further, Galiriothoxmus pointed his right index finger at Ary, ranting,
"Shut up, stupid kid!!"
"Huh?"
Ary reacted as his fist tightened in anger after being called "stupid."
"Have you ever thought that the most important thing for a warrior is their health!!"
Galiriothoxmus said as he picked out a pair of sunglasses from his pocket and while wearing them over her egg-shaped face, he glanced at Ary and Kashi and said,
"Look at yourselves. You guys are injured, yet you're going away in such a rush instead of taking a check-up on your physique!"
Well, what he said reflected too much on the Warriors since the first thought that crossed their minds was,
'Where in the world did he get these sunglasses from?'
"Are you even listening?"
Galiriothoxmus said, as his tone got angry.
"Listen, Galiriothoxmus. We can have the check-up later. Firstly, we have to—"
Kashi called, but while interrupting his words, Galiriothoxmus roared into a loudspeaker. That's when he got out of nowhere.
"No deny!!!"
Everyone placed their hands on their ears due to the loud noise of the loudspeaker.
"Stop that, you stupid deity!"
Before anyone could do anything, Erica ranted.
But Galiriothoxmus didn't seem to stop, he commanded with the loudspeaker,
15:00
"Emergency!! We have some casualties!!"
"One, two. One, two. One, two."
Soon, some dwarfs were seen holding some stretcher trollies.
"Wha?!"
Ary and others reacted after seeing this but forcefully. They were laid on the trollies and were sent to the clinic of the heavenly realm.
***
"Warriors should always care about their health. Warriors have to remember that health matters the most...."
While walking here and there, Galiriothoxmus lectured Ary and the others while they were lying on the beds in the clinic.
Sigh!
Kashi sighed while placing his right palm over his forehead, as if he had started feeling irritated.
Mai and Mary were looking at Galiriothoxmus with weary expressions.
While with dull-eyed expressions, Ary, Erica, Emily, and Mike were looking at Galiriothoxmus as if they were seeing Galiriothoxmus as some kind of grumpy lecturer.
"Hey, Ary."
Erica called out, still looking at Galiriothoxmus.
"Hmm?"
Ary responded.
"When did this pervert turn into a grumpy lecturer?"
She asked.
"No idea."
Ary replied, while glancing at Galiriothoxmus.
"So, did you get it?"
Galiriothoxmus turned his face to them.
They nodded with dull expressions.
"Good!"
Galiriothoxmus said, and then he clapped his hands.
Cough!
Suddenly, someone coughed while entering the clinic.
"Hmm?"
Galiriothoxmus reacted as he shifted his face to his left, toward the entrance.
"Oh, father. Is there something I can do for you?"
Galiriothoxmus asked.
Kashi got up from the bed after seeing Father as he said,
"Father, we are terribly sorry. We were coming to your cabin, but Galiriothoxmus stopped us and brought us here."
"Ehh?"
Galiriothoxmus reacted in a nasal voice, asking,
"Were you guys...going to meet the father...?"
"Yes," they replied.
Galiriothoxmus felt as if he was going to be punished for this.
He knelt in front of Father, saying,
"I'M TRULY SORRY, FATHER!!"
He became a scapegoat in front of his father.
Sigh!
Yet Father Albert wasn't a merciless person. He sighed then gazed at Galiriothoxmus, saying,
"Get up, child. I know you were worried about them. It's fine."
"Oh, father. You're great as always."
Galiriothoxmus flattered Father Albert, and in response, Father Albert faked a smile at him.
Then, he shifted his gaze to Ary and said,
"Ary, there is someone who wants to meet you. I know you'll be happy to meet her as well."
"Hmm? Who?"
Ary responded as he got up from his bed.
Father Albert smiled, then he looked back at the entrance of the clinic and called,
"You can come in now."
Creak!
The door opened and a lady walked in.
"...?!"
Ary's eyes widened after seeing that lady. n/.O-(V)/e-/l--b.(I).n
She looked like a lady in her early 30s. She had long blonde hair and a pair of crystal blue eyes. Her skin was fair as snow, and she was wearing a blue astral dress on her sexy slim body.
After seeing her, Ary opened his mouth and uttered,
"Aunt...Reina...?"
