They bowed respectfully.
"Good Evening, Your Majesty. My name is Sarah, your head housekeeper. I had your bath ready. " she said.
He just took a glance at them, but they quickly curled in intimidation.
"Or would the king like to eat first?" Sarah asked him again, there was a bit of fear seeping in her voice this time.
Right now, he only can barely maintain his consciousness. He no longer thinks about taking a bath or eating.
"I have no appetite today, there is no need to serve me for bath either. You are all dismissed." then he walked pass them.
They looked relieved and bowed.

"Frost, cover this place with 'magic barrier'."
"Yes, Your Majesty." Frost replied, then he extended his hand, slowly the blue light enveloped the room.
His sight getting blurred as his body trembled violently, his breathing felt very heavy and sweat ran down his body.
"I overused my power... Now I have to pay it."

"Your Majesty!" Frost quickly approached him.
Frost immediately helped him to walk and laid him on the bed. After saw his severe condition, Frost turned around and intended to call a doctor.

Frost tried to leave, but Angel stopped him.
"Don't tell anyone about my condition..." he said as he panting.
"Your Majesty, you are seriously injured." said Frost worriedly.
"It's an order..." he said again.
Frost could only sigh and obey his orders since an elemental spirit couldn't against his master's orders.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
He gave him a faint smile.
"Frost... I entrust my safety to you..." he said weakly before his consciousness completely disappeared.
