Volume 6.5 Chapter 14: I’m In A Hospital?

"Am I in heaven?" Keith groaned as he looked up at the ceiling. He saw a white light; that thought was the only thing going through his mind. His words caused laughter to erupt,

"Kid, you're not in heaven. You're still alive and kicking." Looking to the side, Keith saw Titus and Craig.

"Don't move yourself. You broke quite a few bones in your body." Noticing how Keith was about to get up, Craig warned. Keith paused,

"I broke some bones?" Keith looked down at his arm. It was now in a proper cast. What was more, his body was bandaged up.

Titus laughed, "You shouldn't be the one saying that. You broke a lot more bones than the kid." Craig's face was bandaged; only his eyes and mouth weren't.

"Where are we?"

"We're in the hospital." Craig rubbed his head. There was a hospital a few blocks down from the guild hall.

"I see. How did we get here?" Titus and Craig paused as they stared.

"How much do you remember from yesterday?" Titus questioned. There was so much anxiousness and concern behind it.

"...Not much. Titus and I returning to the beginning and then passing out?" Keith scratched his head.

"..." "What?"

"That idiot Groa knocked you out too hard." Craig could only grab his head.

"Eh?"

"Groa knocked your lights out. Also, you were acting spacy throughout the ride." Titus sighed as he looked up at the ceiling. But that caused the others to worry even more.

"It was a mistake! I didn't think he would faint from that," Groa shouted. He lay in the bed next to Craig. But that caused them to shake their heads, "How you knock him out is just messed up." The guy did not hold anything back as he slapped him.

"Oh, I remember now." Keith rubbed his head, recalling what had transpired. After getting knocked out by Groa, he woke up again. He was in a carriage where Shakti and the others from White Lily watched over him. But it was a brief moment as he passed out again.

"So, how long was I out for this time?" Keith tilted his head.

"Two days." Titus grinned.

"That long?!" That was four times compared to the last time. As they talked,

"Thank goodness you're up!" Looking at the door, Morgan and the others were there.

"Hello!" Keith waved his hand. But that alone caused Keith's body to ache!

"How are you feeling?" Morgan asked.

"Somewhat fine?" Not accounting for bandages wrapped around his body, there was soreness all over.

"Good. When we returned, all of us were worried that Groa had killed you. Your eyes were rolled backward."

"I said I was sorry!" They were never going to let that go.

"Haha." But as they talked, a blur dashed at him!

"Woah! Madison?" Keith blinked as he looked down. She held him tightly.

"Keith, you're awake! Thank goodness!"

"Y-yeah." Keith looked up at the rest,

"Madison had been coming here to check on you for the last few days," Groa explained.

"I'm so glad you're alright." Madison didn't listen to what the others said as she continued to hold onto Keith.

"Thank you. Ugh." Keith tilted his head, wondering what to do in this situation. He was in pain from how tight she hugged. But he didn't dare say anything.

"Gee, how could you make such a girl cry?" Shakti shook her head.

"Shame on you." When she said that, the others also started to jeer.

"Ahh," Keith was stunned; these guys loved teasing. He didn't know what to do before he patted the girl's head, "I'm sorry for worrying you." That was the wrong thing to say.

"You damn right you should!" Madison turned into a demon. Her eyes were glazed as she glared.

"...Kid is getting chewed out like no tomorrow." Everyone took a step back as they didn't want to get close.

"With what he did, he needs to get scolded."

"Keith!" When Madison screamed at him, the others came bursting through the door!
