Kalusia’s Aftermath

I opened my eyes and found myself in an unknown room with an elegant facade, sleeping in the center of a king-size bed.

'Is this… the Kalusia castle?' I wondered as I recognized the architecture from my fight with Zagor.

My clothing had been switched, and I was wearing baggy silk pants with no shirt. Still, my abdomen was wrapped with white gauze that covered most of it.

Right at that moment, the door opened, and Gina entered the room holding a tray with a teapot and cups.

*gasp* "Ichiro, you are awake!" The battle-maid exclaimed, halting right at the door.

Yoru quickly ran inside the room when he heard Gina's shout, and Vespera materialized beside my bed after teleporting to my location.

I groaned and held my head as I felt a bit groggy from my nap, pondering how long I had slept.

"Five days," Vespera replied casually.

"Huh!? I was out for that long!?" I asked, feeling perplexed.
