Chapter 10-Mission Completed

"Caliber, Caliber you are finally awake" Cidena sighed in relief.

"Where am I," Caliber asked in a weak voice. He then tried to get up but Cidena said otherwise.

"Don't try to move or your wound will open again, we are in the hotel. I have cleaned your wounds and changed your clothes, they are drying right now because I washed them, they were covered in blood and were also torn."

"How many days has it been since I fell unconscious"

"It's been 2 days"

"Then we have to leave for our town otherwise my Evelyn will worry about me"

"But if you move your wound will open so you won't be able to move properly and you might even die, you are seriously injured and I wasn't even able to take you to a hospital because the wound was too open and I didn't want to risk it, now it's better so let's go to an actual doctor"

"Bu-"

"No buts Caliber, I will carry you in my arms so don't worry, you are lucky I was able to close your bleeding faster using my power. If your wound was even a little deeper you would have died."

Cidena picked him up using her powers but still kept him in his arms. She used the power just so Caliber isn't being moved which could open his wound.

The next day he was healed good enough for him to walk without worrying a lot about his wounds opening up. The doctor said it is a miracle that he survived and healed so fast, he also said that for a normal person it would have to take at least a week for the pain to go away and around a month or less for the wound to close as much as Caliber's did.

They reached their town back in 5 days. They took a total of 13 days to complete and return to their town.

"May we come in chief?" Cidena asked.

"Yes come in" Miran was happy to see Caliber and Cidena after 2 weeks "You both are finally back, I was starting to get scared and thought I made a big mistake sending you both but I was proved wrong, well here is your money both of you."

"Thank you chief" they both said.

"Chief if you don't mind could you tell me if the hospital will still be open this late at night?"

"The hospitals are always open, are you both fine why do you need to go to the hospital?" he said extremely worried about Cidena and Caliber.

"While we were fighting Caliber said that he can handle Ken all by himself and do not interrupt whatsoever, so I didn't but he got badly injured during the fight, his fight was also taken pretty far away from where we started so I didn't notice his injury at first but till I reached him both Ken and Caliber were lying on the floor. Caliber was so badly injured I don't think the scar is ever gonna go away."

"Caliber if you don't mind would you show me your scar," Miran asked.

Caliber raised his shirt and revealed an X-shaped scar across his abs to his chest. "I am alright now but Cidena insists on taking me to a docto-"

"Cidena take him to the hospital right now, the wound can still bleed I am surprised that you are walking around with weights"

"Yes chief, I will," Cidena said.

She took Caliber's hand and took him to a hospital where he was treated right away. He was dispatched from the hospital the next morning but he was advised to take rest for a week.

"I am home," Caliber said as he entered his house.

"Welcome back Caliber" his grandpa said.

His sister came running towards him ready to punch him on his abs not knowing about his injury. Caliber stopped Cidena's hands, his grandpa was surprised to see that as Caliber never stopped his sister's attack.

"I am going to take a bath now, see you in a bit"

After coming out of his bath his grandpa asked him "Is everything OK Caliber"

"Yeah, why do you ask?"

"Nothing much, did you get injured during your mission?"

"Y-"

"First sit down so you can eat, and then talk"

Caliber sat down and said, "as I was saying, I did get hur-"

"Where," his grandpa asked

"What," Caliber asked

"Show me where you got injured"

"It wasn't much I just got hit a little on my abs."

"Show me, no excuses"

"Bu- OK I will show it," he said and lifted his shirt up "Don't worry I went to two hospitals already"

"I am not telling you to go to a hospital but you will not go on any missions for a week and you will rest"

"But at least let me trai-, OK I won't train either but at least can I help Evi with her training"

"I can allow that"

"Thank you, grandpa"

After eating he went to his sister who was very angry "Evi, I know I took a lot of time to come back but guess what" Caliber sat down beside her "I won't go anywhere for a whole week and spend the whole time with you"

"Really," she got happy again.

"Yep, why don't we train now?"

"Yeah but first tell me about your last two weeks"

"I will tell you all about my mission as we exercise but first let me go and meet father"

"OK," she said with a big smile.

Caliber went to his father "Hi father, I know I haven't met you in a while but I was busy on missions, I am sorry"

"Yeah yeah, I forgive you," his father said acting like he didn't care. "Did you get hurt during your mission"

'Yeah, why you ask"

"Just wondering, why don't you show me the injury" Caliber lifted his shirt revealing his injury "HAVE YOU VISITED THE DOCTOR YOU ARE BA- I mean," he got embarrassed, "have you visited the doctor it looks serious"

"You do know that I know you act like you don't care but you do"

"Think what you want to but that won't change the fact that I don't care"

"yeah yeah," Caliber said and left.

As he was leaving his father said "take rest or you will get injured again".
