As Vel, Neil and Venom looked at Ian with horror in their face, Ian raised an eyebrow in confusion.
He hadn't done anything but scare them for a second so he couldn't understand why they were making such horrified expressions while looking at him.
"Are you guys okay?"
He actually felt concerned after noticing how pale the trio looked. As he began to check their overall health status, he soon realised that they had many wounds and blood spots all over their body.
Since Neil had gone through many interrogation, and Vel and Venom got beaten up personally by Ian and Rianne, all three of them were in a pretty bad state.
"Hey.. "
He signalled for Corner to come close.
"Are their mana being restricted right now?"
Ian asked a question that had been bothering him for a while now.
"Brother.. ""You're not in your bed, young master..""Are you really saying you don't overwork...""While working with a fatigued body even right now?"Ash, Arthur, Adel and Steve, they all looked at Ian with an expression of annoyance and worry. The very fact that Ian seemed to think so lowly of himself and not give a damn about his own health was making them feel uncomfortable.The other's were staying silent but their feelings weren't much different from theirs either. Everyone was worried about Ian."What...are you guys doing here?"Ian asked. Since he had sneaking came out of his room after sending Ash on an errand, he thought that he'd have a little more time in his hand. But the reality was different."We came here after realising that you weren't in your room.""Shouldn't you be in bed right now?"Questions after questions poured towards Ian and he had no way of getting out of the situat
"and.."The chief healer tried to continue."There's more?"Ian raised an eyebrow."Yes.. more of.. I'm not exactly sure what.. "He replied in a confused voice."You don't know?"Miller asked. The confusing conversation between Ian, the chief healer and Miller left everyone inside the room confused and curious.The chief healer was one of the most skilled person in the entire kingdom. The only reason he wasn't setting up his own association or institute and instead serving the Dicarious family was due to gratitude.Miller was someone who could easily be hailed as a hero, and was actually hailed as one of the greatest person's in not only the kingdom but the entire continent.And in his lifetime, the number of people he has saved, rescued or helpe
Miller and Olivia came into Ian's room late at night. Accompanying them were the healers and medics of the mansion.When Ian wondered about their reason for arrival, Miller expressed his worries about Ian's health and requested that he let them do a thorough checkup on him.Ian came to know that the original Adrian hated doctors and healers and would hardly ever agree to getting treated by them."It's fine. You can go ahead."Ian gave his permission and the chief of the healing team came forward. Ian saw the familiar face and recalled the first time he opened his eyes to this world.'Feels a little nostalgic.'So much time had already passed. Noah had no one back then. The only thing he could count on was his knowledge about this world.And now, he was surrounded by people. To the extent that he barely had an

"These are...""Your familiars.. hmm..""Oh my! Are they the kids that came out of those eggs?!"As Miller and the chief healer contemplated over the situation, Olivia looked surprised and happy to see the three kids.She came forward and started observing them with eyes full of curiosity and sparkle. Seeing how eager she was while observing them, Ian gave them the signal to approach Olivia.Canis, who was lazily resting in Ian's arm, raised his head and looked back towards Olivia after receiving Ian's signal. Although he was the least active and calmest member of the trio, he was also the one with the most maturity."You can touch them."As Canis offered his head forward, Ian gave Olivia the signal she was waiting for. As she saw how Canis closed his eyes, she couldn't help but place her hands on his head.
"I came out to take a walk. It's stuffy inside."Ian said while stretching. He was feeling stiff after staying inside the underground prison for a long time."You were taking a walk?"Seeing Corner's constipated expression, Ash frowned and asked again."That's right."Ian moved slightly and blocked Corner from their view. That guy was too bad at lying so Ian took it upon himself to cover for him."What about you guys? All of you together, did something happen?"Ian asked as he started walking once again. He had to go back to his bedroom before the people in front of him made even a bigger fuss."Nothing happened.""It was a coincidence."Arthur and Ash replied simultaneously. Seeing the villain hero pair in such sync, Ian had a weird feeling in his stom
"Monster..? .... Me?" Ian pointed towards himself. Miller turned his head around in shock after realising that Ian was right behind him and had heard the whole thing. And not just Miller, everyone present there had the same reaction when they became aware of Ian's presence. Ian wondered what was going on as he approached Miller and the Second Prince. Since it was an event outside of the original storyline, Ian felt a little uneasy. "Son.. why'd you come out.. I'll handle this so you can go inside and rest." Miller looked troubled and worried about Ian as he tried to shield him from the Prince. "Cedric? Why are you here? And what's all this commotion about?" Albert also approached them from behind and tried to understand what was going on. Since Ian's family was one that was loyal to the Kingdom and the King
"Wow.. How convenient.."Ian looked amazed as he heard the Second Prince, Prince Cedric spout nonsense. Seeing his unbothered expression, Prince Cedric frowned in displeasure."What do you mean by convenient?"He asked."I mean, the fact that they willingly surrendered and revealed my name, specifically, like that.. Sounds a little unnatural, no?"Ian couldn't help but laugh at how absurd the whole thing sounded. Anyone with the least bit rationality left in them would find a situation like this suspicious.But the fact that the second prince wasn't questioning the situation made him look suspicious instead, at least to Ian."That is obviously a lie."Corner protested from the side. And Miller joined in."As you may have learned from the reports I sent, my son has bee
