Casildo grinned widely, clearly amused by his new companion's concern. "Wow, I'm touched by your care, Failed Product," he teased.

Prince Arkana patted his shoulder reassuringly. "Mission accomplished. And we all made it back safely," he said with a sincere smile.

For a moment, Kairav almost believed him—until his hazel eyes landed on the nameless young man, unconscious and supported by Birendra. "What happened to him?" he cried out, rushing to his friend's side. "What's wrong?" he asked anxiously upon noticing the pale face of the young man beneath the half-silver mask.

Casildo rolled his eyes and waved dismissively. "Relax. He's not dead yet," he said casually, earning a sharp glare from Kairav's hazel eyes.
