Capítulo 37: Night Cries
" Where were you!!!? " Irina asks with a loud voice as she and Duncan with the whole family currently asking Donovan where he had gone for hours as they had to search for him.
" Oh, I ... I was .... "
" Lost ..... " Donovan says as he says that he's been sleepwalking from his room which he tells them just that.
Hearing that, made Irina angry as she pinched Donovan so hard as it stretched his cheeks.
" Sleepwalking!!!? are you joking with mommy right now, Donnie!!!? "
" How can you sleepwalk easily without even getting injured!!!? "
" And by the way, your room is on the third floor which can only be reached using stairs and you say you just walk in your sleep to whatever place you go back before you return!!!? " Irina asks as Donovan says that it was true, he didn't mean to lie to her.
Seeing his reaction, Duncan who is still half-asleep calms Irina down as he told him to stay calm for she needs to rest more than him after all don't forget that she now carries Donovan's sister in her belly Duncan decides to ask Hector if he can talk to Donovan alone while Irina is taken back to their room.
" Of course, you two should have your time... " Hector says as he decides to take the others to their rooms and orders the maids to take Irina back to her room while Duncan and Donovan decide to speak privately.
" Are you alright, son? " Duncan suddenly asks which made Donovan shocked.
" Oh ... of course, I am dad, why? "
" No, it's just ... "
" If you were gone by sleepwalking earlier, I was wondering if you may accidentally hit something while you leave the place? " Duncan asks Donovan immediately sees his body and responded by shaking his head as he sees no wound on or in his body.
Seeing that, Duncan then looks at Donovan for a bit with his half-asleep look for he is a type of person that can't be awakened while being asleep as he then takes a time to close his eye so he can refresh his eye again and then.
" I see, thank goodness... "
" I was wondering if you were hurt earlier, and... "
" Judging by the situation, I wonder if you are instincts are so advanced that you can even dodge and stay on track while being asleep. "
" Or... " Duncan looks at Donovan.
" What is it, dad? " Donovan looks back at him.
" While you are sleepwalking, you're eyes are opened? " Duncan suddenly asks which made Donovan shocked as he wasn't expecting him to ask such a question.
"( Oh no, does dad know about it? )" Donovan wondered.
Seeing Donovan's behavior, Duncan decides to close his eyes and smile as he didn't mind it and only tells him for he is grateful that he returns to this place safely which made Donovan feel bad as deep in his mind, he wanted to tell his dad the truth about his recent un-official Raid but it seems he doesn't have the courage to do so and plus.

" Do not tell everyone about this... "
" Do not tell everyone about the Aether... "
" Do not tell everyone close to you about the Black Shad... "
......
" Dad ... umm .... "
" Can I go sleep now? " Donovan asks Duncan which was immediately met by silence as Duncan is having his time resting his eyes for a bit.
" Uh oh ... yes of course Don .... " Duncan says while being half-asleep.
" Go sleep in your room ASAP... " Duncan orders him as the two then go to their room for Duncan told Donovan that they will leave tomorrow.
As the two left, Duncan immediately went into his room to meet his bed but Irina then blocks his access for she had something to say to him.
" What is it dear? " Duncan asks her Irina that looked at him with an angry face.
" You're just going to let that slip away? "
" Do you even care for our son's safety? " Irina asks which made Duncan sighs as he tells her that he is fine and there's nothing to worry about.
Hearing that, Irina then gets mad as she begins to be emotional again as her <Dragon Curse> is slowly being activated which Duncan can sense as he quickly prepares himself.
Seeing her husband had to take a stance, Irina then quickly calm herself as she knows what is Duncan doing if he had to make such a stance for she realize that during her pregnancy, her <Dragon Curse> is getting more leaked, probably because her body condition is getting weakened for she is now bearing a child.
" I'm sorry, Duncan... " Irina says as she tries to suppress the 'Dragon' inside her Duncan then decides to hug her for he knows his wife is in a critical state.
"( Irina's <Dragon Curse> is getting wilder during her pregnancy... )"
"( The curse's power may be the same, but right now since she will have birth, and her body begins to weaken to hold its usual power. )" Duncan thinks while hugging his wife while she cries emotionally.
" I hate this curse ...., Duncan ..... "
" I hate being a Richter....., I hate being Siegfried's descendant ... " she says while hugging Duncan.
" If he does not foolishly commit himself to slay dragons, then ... "
" 'We' the Richter family, his descendants would never have to bear the curse in every certain generation. " Irina says to Duncan about her troubles for being a Richter, for she is currently the <Dragon Curse> bearer in her generation which is the very thing that she hates.
As he hears that, Duncan still hugs Irina despite being slowly asleep but he still tries to pat her to calm her down that night.
( Meanwhile. )
Donovan is sleeping in his room, as he then suddenly awakes as someone calls him from the shadows of his bed.
" Appear, Tania... " Donovan orders Black Shadow Tania to appear before him.
" What is it that you wish to speak with me? " Donovan asks Tania then close her eyes as she begins to show Donovan what she thinks of him per the Passive Skill that Donovan and his shadows had, <Shadow Link>.
" I see... "
" I hope my mother is alright, after all ... " Donovan doesn't say the last word as he orders Black Shadow Tania to return to the shadows while he continues his sleep.
"( Don't even think about it now, Donovan. )"
"( You had much to know for this night. )" Donovan says to himself, as he ends the night with him sleeping.
