179 The depressed magi

“Where is she?”

The firm voice of the crown prince makes the guard got nervous. They even stand straight when Justice goes inside the room. It has been two days since the accident that Vale caused. Everyone was already back in the capital, and all the Bacardy family were already captured, all but one.

A chief guard bows to Justice. “Your majesty, we kept her body in the chill room, along with the other two.”

“Take me there.” Justice order the guard and took a glance at his behind. “Are you coming or not?”

Henry rustled his long hair and gruntled at his friend, “Should I be there as well?”

“Oh, you do know I would like some company. Come on, be a champ for me.” Justice endlessly teased Henry, he knew that his friend prefer to go with Anne and Xavier who were going to visit Vale.

“Fine! Just… Just let’s go now before I changed my mind.” He was gruntling endlessly to Justice.

The crown prince ignored him and prefer to speak with the chief guard, “How about the primary captain? There’s nothing wrong with the report of the accident, right?”

“Yes, your majesty, he was already being released from charged, since the witnesses testified in his favor.” The chief guard informed Justice about the good news.

.....

Justice was happy about the report. “Good, that was good, and how about the Bacardy family?” He then asks the chief guard about the notorious fallen noble that makes havoc in the capital.

“They were already in the cell. I rotated the guards every six hours for their individual cell, just in case.” Said the chief guard to Justice.

After hearing about the rotation, Henry continued the conversation. “That was too much for just the whole family. I mean, six hours per rotation?”

Unexpectedly, the chief guard stops for a moment, his eyes looking into Henry directly, “Captain, I’m afraid you’re not aware of the severity of their crime. They killed hundreds of people in the name of revenge. Just yesterday, our team needs to build a barricade outside the headquarter because of masses going to break in.”

“Oh, the victims’ family, so the rotation was for safety measures.” Henry nods his head and they continue walking toward the morgue.

“It’s not that I wanted to protect the family, it’s more that I don’t want the innocent people becoming a criminal because of their act, they already lose their loved ones.” Said the chief guard to the others, who went quiet all of a sudden.

Meanwhile, Anne and Xavier were standing nervously in front of Vale’s room. With a basket of biscuits and cake, Anne took a glance at Xavier.

“So, just knock on the door, Xavier, this basket is heavy!”

Xavier immediately takes the basket out of Anne’s hand. “I can’t I don’t know what to say to him. Should we just put the basket and go away?”

Anne couldn’t believe what he was just saying, she punch his arm and glared at Xavier, “Oh, come on Xavier! He is our friend. Vale needs us right now!”

Huffing his breath, Xavier look into Anne, “Yes, but Anne, I don’t know…”

Suddenly, the front door of Vale’s room was open. They turn their head to see Brom leaning into the doorframe and eyes looking at them.

“You know we can hear you from the opposite of the door, right?” Said Brom with a smirk on his face.

Anne punches his arm one more time. “I told you to just knock on the door.”

“Ouch, would you stop that!” Xavier look into her and winced, “We can enter now, miss, no need for violence.”

“Right, my apology,” Anne said to Xavier and run inside the room immediately. She looked around and saw Darla in the living room.

“Darla? Oh, I didn’t expect to see you here?” Anne gave her friend a warm embrace.

Darla smiled, and both of them sat on the sofa. “Yeah, I know, since the huge argument that I have to end up in such a not-so-peaceful way.”

“What happened?” Asked Anne to her.

Brom came and gave her a cup of caftea, “Monsters happened, and that’s the only thing that you will hear from us.”

“I guess this is a bad time, and we need to focus on Vale’s condition.” Anne nodded her head, and then she turned to Darla and whispered, “Next time, you need to tell me everything.”

Xavier sat on the dining chair and asked Brom while pointing at Vale’s room, “How is he?”

“Terrible, he couldn’t sleep and I need to put a sleeping spell on him so he could get a sleep.” Brom looks so confused and glum. “I never saw him like this.”

Hearing the news from Brom, Anne held onto Brom’s shoulder and gave him some encouragement. “You did good, Brom. How about if you and Darla go back to your barrack, let us be here for Vale?”

“Are you sure, Anne? I mean, we tried to give him some food, but he won’t even touch it.” Darla said to Anne, it seems they already tried every way just to give Vale some comfort.

Standing up from his chair, Xavier convinced them to let Anne and himself stay in the room, taking care of Vale. “Trust me, it would be better if the two of you are taking some rest.”

Finally, ten minutes later, Brom and Darla took their leave. Xavier and Anne were sitting in the kitchen, nervously glancing at Vale’s bedroom. They don’t know what to do about his situation.

“I mean, we are at war, but with demons and monsters, I guess Vale never imagined himself accidentally killing people when he was just doing his duty.” Xavier gave Anne a bittered smile. He was having the same problematic feeling and know what Vale had been through right now.

Anne couldn’t even think what the four of them have been through, going into the battlefield, and seeing people dying everywhere and now it just got worse for Vale.

“I’m going to check on him. You’ll stay here, alright.” Anne patted Xavier’s back and then walk into Vale’s bedroom.

She opened the door, and darkness engulfed her. Vale put away all of his light orbs and close the curtains. The room becomes more depressing when she looks at the bed. All she saw was the pillow and the blanket. Vale wasn’t sleeping on his bed. She was confused and nervous.

“Vale, where are…” Before Anne could finish her sentence, someone grab her from behind and throw her into the bed.

She was screaming at Xavier, but the room door close in front of him before Xavier could enter the room.

“Anne!” Xavier desperately tried to open the door in many ways possible, feeling that something terrible would have happened to her inside the room.
