Meanwhile, unbeknownst to Donovan.
" You usurped me while I'm weakened, didn't you!? " Carlos says to '#####' in his own mind realm.
'#####', he's a being that is currently sealed within Carlos's body per the Calibur House's tradition. Each generation of the Pure Royal Blood of the Calibur House must become the seal for a being that the Hose kept for generations.
This being is sealed for Calibur House's own reasons, whatever the reason is, either it's for their House's trophy or as their secret weapon, it wasn't revealed much as they also closed him inside Carlos's body for unexplained reasons.
Despite being sealed and forgotten by the others, '#####', still tries his way to make himself known again, trying his best to find every leak in his very cage, in order for him to at least breathe the fresh air for a bit.
" Well, I already told you that I will get out, didn't I? " '#####' reminds Carlos about it.
" I don't know if you remember this since this was already done a long time ago, but I told you many times that you should be alert for I will get out, no matter what didn't I!? " '#####' tries to remind Carlos about the thing he said many years ago.
"( Yeah, I remember... )"
"( Back then, you struggle so hard, my strength is almost drained as I have to deal with you too! )" Carlos remembers.
"( I don't know what made you struggle hard again this time, but this is odd since you even rarely intervene with my life for years as you just sit tight, watching my life in this realm. )" Carlos remembers, wondering what is it this time that made '#####' gone active again despite his passiveness for many years.
" You face... " '#####' says as he sees Carlos's face.
" I see you're wondering about my recent activeness, didn't you? " '#####' asks him which he then smirks.
" Well you see, I also don't know why yet..., but... "
" After years without proper entertainment, I finally sense the possibility of joy while existing in this annoying body of yours. " '#####' tells Carlos his reasons.
" Really, you don't know it too...! " Carlos replied in disbelief.
" Hey, don't look at me like that, I haven't gone to the 'evil' parts yet... "
" Damn, you really are so cautious when talking to me, just like your predecessors... " '#####' comments Carlos's previous bloodlines.
" Well, it's not our fault that we don't trust you! "
" You don't even sound trustable! '#####'! " Carlos says '#####'s name, like the others who spoke it.
'#####'s name has been given a spell that prevents anyone from spelling it, even '#####' himself. The reason it was like is still unknown, but probably it is done for good reasons.
" Seriously, talking to your leads to no end! " Carlos says to '#####', knowing that he probably just wants to waste Carlos's own energy inside this realm.
" I'm going to leave! " Carlos says as he tries to be conscious again, leaving '#####' inside.
" Fine then! " '#####' says to Carlos, realizing the brat didn't want to speak further with him.
" Leave! " he told Carlos to leave this realm, return to reality and wake up in his damaged body that he decides to not heal for a reason.
As he says that, Carlos just looks at him for a bit, and then retracts his face again from looking at him any further, thus leaving the realm as he has probably already woken up in the Medic Room for real. His body was still damaged, making him feel the pain of it.
"( There he goes, how does it feel to receive my consequences, brat! )" '#####' says as he realized that Carlos had already felt the pain from earlier.
"( Damn brat, the more he grow up, the more he really can't be talked with...! )"
"( Just like the ones before him, he's really a bloody Calibur House's cunt! )" '#####' mocks.
"( What a strict geek!? )" '#####' mocks Carlos in his mind again.
"( Well, at least I only tell him only the portion of what I just did today, I almost spilled it out loud during my irritation on, merely, talking with him. )" '#####' says as he remembers about Draven.
"( He should be enough... )" '#####' says as he smirks.
"( Now what matters is to find out more deeply about our new star... )" '#####' says as he began to scheme for the future.
"( Let's hope things go out with what I've devised. )" '#####' thinks deeply about this while remembering his battle with Draven.
...
( Meanwhile. )
[ In a place unknown. ]
In a prison-like place, an old man is tied up as he's being restrained by a powerful binding magic.
"( Dammit, they got me... )" the old man says as he looks up, as hears a voice coming into his cell.
It was Hector, Donovan's grandfather, the Leader of the Richter House, now chained, captured by the Elves who attacked him in his fortress.
" Eat up!" a voice says as he gives Hector his meal, giving him a voice so mocking, that even makes Hector looks pissed when he hears it.
"( That elf! )" he says in his mind, to the elf guards as they keep him in their cage.
" Oh, you didn't like it, huh... " the elf guard says as he beats Hector up
" Mr. Royal...? " the elf mocks Hector as he then just puts his meal onto his face so he will forcefully have to eat it.
" Let's go, tell the others that we already feed him... "
" Well, that doesn't look like feeding... " the other elf guard chuckles.
" Well we already do our job giving him the meal, so it's his problem if he doesn't want to eat it or not! " he says as both Elven guards leave the cell again, leaving Hector alone again.
"( Those elves, I see they're really 'his' soldiers, huh? )"
"(Those elven bastards... )" Hector says as he realizes the situation he's in while remembering the events that led him here.
"( It's not a mistake, the reason why they attacked the 'Defense Garrison Fortress' is to obtain..., 'that'! )" Hector remembers now, the reason why his fortress is being attacked.
For the 'Defense Garrison Fortress' holds something that the Elves who captured him once possesses. Their race's most sacred treasure was taken as a trophy by his late father, Rainard Richter back then.
" Dammit, I hope they didn't find out so soon! "
" I better hope it will take time for them to scour the Fortress's secrets in order to gain what's theirs... "
" If they found it, there... " Hector says as he thinks about his family, especially her daughter Irina.
" I hope you all are safe... "
" Please don't come here, Irina... "
