“See later.”
Finally, we entered my room. Inside, there is a figure of Mulisu with hair draped, not tied in two as usual. He was only wearing light green patient clothes. After surgery on Saturday, the infusion needle is still attached to the left wrist. He's lying on the bed.
Next to the bed, Illuvia and Nerva sat down. Currently, Nerva was feeding Mulisu.
I don't have much to say about Illuvia and Nerva. I'm more surprised Mulisu has regained consciousness. According to Ibla, he had just escaped death. In fact, there should be a hole in his chest that makes doctors have to patch his heart.
“Ah, Lugalgin, you have arrived.”
“Eh? Lugalgin?”
While Mulisu greeted me, Illuvia gasped.
“Ya, I just got to.”
I walked to the other side of the bed, to the right of Mulisu. Without me saying anything, Ibla had already provided a seat to sit on. I sat down and put the box on the floor.
“So, how are you doing?”
“Yes, can't say good. I can't feel my legs and hands. So, I can't move at all. Without help, it would be hard for me to pee.”
As I walked from door to chair, I noticed Mulisu's hands and feet. His hands and feet were seen lying limp. So, he's really half paralyzed huh.
“Dan, Lugalgin, sorry.”
“Hah?”
“In addition to being paralyzed, I lost my control. I can't feel any material. So, apparently, I have no role in Agade nor in your plans. I'm sorry, Lugalgin.”
Yeah, I have to admit it. If Mulisu lost his control, troublesome things would happen. There are many parts of my plan that I need to change. The only person of Mulisu's caliber I know is Ukin. And, since Ukin hurt Mulisu, I doubt he'll cooperate.
“If I just lose control, and become an incompetent like you, maybe I can work hard so that someday I can be as strong as you. However, since my hands and feet were no longer working, I really could not do anything. I will only be a burden to you and to Agade.”
“GIN!” Suddenly, Illuvia shouted. “If you need people, let me replace Mulisu. I'll be a member of the Agade. I'll do everything. But please, do not abandon Mulisu. I beg. He's already risked his life to save us.”
I saw Illuvia well. I could see his body trembling while talking to me. It seems that I am the one who is feared by him.
I don't know if this was caused by what I said before I left, a few days ago, or if someone else said something to her. If Ibla and Mulisu say the original plan is for me to let Ukin kill him, I understand. And, needless to ask, he must have heard that I was Sarru.
Besides the fear, I also saw him slightly frowning the temples. It seems that she endured the pain due to her shoulder that I had already smashed.
“Illuvia, you think you who can replace Mulisu?”
“U..”
“Mulisu is the strongest person in Agade, on par with me. You lost to me in less than five minutes. If at that time I was serious, did not give you a chance to move, I have separated your head from the body in less than a minute.”
When I said that, Illuvia immediately held onto the neck. Illuvia. Not long ago he was silent, a response emerged from him.
“Is a kindhearted Lugalgin a fake? Did the Lugalgin I loved wholeheartedly for 3 years never exist? Is the Lugalgin I love because of her kindness and her warmth in saying there never was?”
Illuvia looked at me wholeheartedly. I could not see the affection and kindness that usually radiated from his eyes. Right now, it seemed, his heart was wavering. Maybe he couldn't accept that I was planning to just leave him. Perhaps, he hoped, Ibla and Mulisu lied.
“A bold sentence remembering you is the cause of all this.”
Illuvia fell silent, giving no response.
I continued, “if you don't jump into the black market, we'll never fight. And, if we don't fight, Mulisu won't have to protect you. In other words, the events on Saturday night were caused by your carelessness. Are you aware of that?”
“I, the..”.
“For three years, you have always been careless and short-minded. If there were no me, Arde, and Maila, I'm sure your stewardship would be ruined in the first semester. The three of us have to make sure you don't do anything out of necessity. We are your restraint.”
“Lu, Lugalgin..”.
“I've told you this many times, right? You listened no?”
“But... but..”.
“Illuvia,” Mulisu interrupts. “I don't know your relationship with Lugalgin in the past. However, what will happen to me is Lugalgin's right. I didn't execute Lugalgin's order, then, it's normal that I accept the consequences.”
“But,” Illuvia still insists, the “Lugalgin I know will not leave you just like that. Nah! The lugalgin I identified would have removed me from that hospital before he attacked. If Lugalgin does that, you won't get hurt like now.”
I don't want to comment on Illuvia's remarks.
Mulisu continued, “if Lugalgin did that, we would never know who the figure that came to you.”
“But... but..”.
“Nona,” Nerva sign in. “Maybe this is not my place. However, I dare say that I can know a little of the characteristics of others. And, the characteristic that I see is that Mr. Lugalgin will not let anyone important to him get hurt. Sorry if I was sassy. However, in my opinion, this shows that in the eyes of Mr. Lugalgin, Miss Mulisu is more important than Miss Illuvia.”
Illuvia fell silent when she heard Nerva's words. He lowered his head again.
“I, the..”.
“Hai Mulisu! You're aware?”
Suddenly Emir and Inanna enter. Who just shouted loudly without any burden? Of course the Emir.
“Huh? Why are you all silent?”
Sometimes, I really envy her innocent nature. If this was a comic, he would have been the main character.
Emir and Inanna also entered. Ibla prepared two chairs for them to sit on my right.
“Mulisu, you said you became an incompetent. Have you tried control serum? Although very rare, there are records of cases like this happening before. And, the generating serum will solve this problem easily. Yeah, even though this generating serum won't return your legs anyway. For hands, it only takes effort.””
At that moment, Mulisu's eyes widened. Not only Mulisu, Illuvia and Nerva are the same. I'm sure Ibla did the same thing behind my back. Emir and Inanna, they're just tilting their heads, not understanding.
Yeah, I understand why they're surprised. As I said, the case of adults losing power is very rare, maybe only a few. Plus, for people who were able to awaken his control naturally, they would completely forget about the existence of the generating serum.
I began to question the competence of the doctor who handled Mulisu. However, if I were to question him, maybe he would just answer, “you only paid me to prevent him from dying, right? Why should I tell you that? If you want to know too, of course there is a price of information,”. Yes, doctors who work on the black market are like that on average anyway.
“Then, let me immediately find that serum.”
“If you order now, through the back lane, only six months later the serum will come. If the official path, you will not be able to get it because this serum is limited to special patients and children.
“And, this serum has an effective period of one year. Over a year, this serum would expire and could no longer be used, making it extremely rare. So, if looking at a black market auction, the price is not good. In the past, I even had to sell 10 units of motorcycles to be able to get them at a black market auction.”
“Eh?”
Ibla just stood up. Not only Ibla, but others also.
I don't care about the others, but Ibla, your ability as an informant is lacking if you don't know this. Yeah, I don't blame you anyway.
I opened the arsenal. Inside the chest, there were dozens of sharp weapons and firearms. However, I did not look at the bottom of the chest. All I see is the back of this box lid. In it, I opened a small box attached.
Inside the small box, there are four syringe tubes complete with injectors. I also took the injector and a syringe tube.
“For now, We will use my personal stock.”
