A Maiden confession

Ars opened his heavy eyes. It was so heavy it took him an hour to fully wake up. 

The first thing he witnesses is the ceiling of a room, a bedroom. 

He sleeps on a comfortable soft mattress. Covered by a thick, warm blanket.

"You are finally awake."

Someone said that to him as he rose from sleep. 

He saves that question for later. Looking at his body, he found his two hands and body got covered by a bandage. Probably a treatment from the previous battle. 

Previous battle. Ars may think that he only sleeps for a day. But maybe it was more than he thought.

"How long has it been since that battle?" 

"A month."

"How long since I fell unconscious?"

"A month."

A month after the grand battle against the strongest man.
