About four days had passed since the invasion against the Knight Country, soliders were in the hospitals all over the city. Some were being operated on, some were leaving the hospital with their teams, while some were grieving over the friends that they lost in the war. In a hospital room, Kazuma had just woken up, his eyes slowly opening as the white ceiling being the first thing he saw. Kazuma was like this for a moment "Ahh, I'm awake? How long have I been asleep for?", he questioned himself. Kazuma sat up straight and started to wipe his eye "By the way, what are you guys doing here?", he asked without even looking around. It turns out that Kazuma wasn't the only one in the room, White was sitted by the window while looking at him "Nothing.", he said. Volt was sitted on a bed beside Kazuma's, Kito was sitted on a stool beside Kazuma's bed as well, and Baroka was leaning on the wall infront of Kazuma with his arms folded "Coz we want to.", he said. Kazuma blinked for a moment before he sighed "Okay, seriously. What the fuck is wrong with you all?", all the boys kept quiet before yelling at Kazuma "YOU'RE THE ONE WE SHOULD BE ASKING THAT, YOU IDIOT!", Kazuma muttered "Jeez, calm down.". Kito explained "We heard from Yuji that you were dead, that statement from him really broke us.", Baroka explained "Yeah, after you healed me and went on to help the rest, I was worried about you and everyone else.". Volt explained "But, since you were able to save us just when we were about to get ourselves killed, we realised there wasn't much to worry about. Although that didn't stop us from coming to check on you afterwards.". Kazuma kept silent for a while before he smiled softly "I see, thanks. You guys are the best.", White stared at Kazuma for a while before leaning forward "Since you're okay, I think the next person to worry about is Yuji.". Kazuma and Volt jolted "That's right. Yuji! Where is he?", Kazuma asked with worry, Volt's eyes seemed saddened "I don't know, but he seemed very broken when I went to visit him yesterday. And from the looks of it, he doesn't seem good.". Yuji was in a hospital room, he had a saddened and shocked facial expression, his mouth was wide opened. Infront of him was Nagumo's top half laying on a bed "Grandpa?", he tried calling out to Nagumo. A doctor said to him "We were able to keep his body and preserve it under Lord Fugaku's orders. He said it would be a good Idea to show you rather than just tell you that your grandfather's dead. I'm sorry for your lose.". A few moments later, Yuji was standing outside of the mortuary, looking from the window as the doctors kept Nagumo's remains in a freezer, Yuji was still traumatised by his grandfather's death, his eyes were dark and swolen. Later, Yuji was walking down the corridors of the hospital until he got outside and sat on a bench. Yuji took some time to understand the situation, and then, he started to cry. Tears fell down his eyes, Yuji tried rubbing them off, using his hands to clean the tears that poured out from his eyes. Fugaku walked to the bench Yuji was sitted on, he didn't take a seat, he just stood by it. Fugaku said "Master Nagumo was a very important teacher to me. He tended to be strict during training, but his intentions weren't ill. He was strong, sometimes cold, but he was a good man.", Fugaku looked at Yuji "From now on, I'll be your care taker and your trainer, aside from Ranpo. I took my time to teach Ranpo when he was your age, I don't mind taking my time to teach you either. Im sure your grandfather would approve too", Fugaku walked off. At that point, Yuji had stopped crying, he just sat on the bench without saying a word, it was at that moment where Kazuma and the rest of the boys were watching him from a distance. At the girls end, they were all sitted together infront of a pond, each of them having bandages covering a part of their bodies,"I'll just come out and say it, I didn't expect all of us to still be alive here.", Gwen said, trying to break the silence. Lydia looked at her "You're awfully honest today.", Rem replied with disinterest "Leave her be, she probably hit her head and now she can't behave properly.". All the girls kept quiet for a moment before Gwen said "I dare you to say that again.", Regina sighed and placed her hand on her face with dissapointment "I refuse to put up with this.". Yuki asked Mio "Yo, Mio. How are your legs feeling?", Mio responded while holding a crotch "Oh, they're getting better. The doctor told me not to walk around too much, but it's fine.", Racheal added to the conversation "The fact we consistently come here to talk with one another, especially after we've almost gotten ourselves killed is insane.". Regina looked at her "Would you prefer if we didn't?", Marallda explained "Nah, she's just having a hard time trying to figure out what goes on in our heads when we do this.". Mio turned to Marallda "Hey, your speech's back to normal.", Rem replied rythorically "Since when?", Marallda explained "I had more than enough time to work on it when you all went to the training camp.". Regina sighed "So what should we do?", she asked, her phone rang for a moment, she had recieved a message "Hm? Someone texted me?", Rem asked "Who is it?". Regina took a look at the message before explaining "It's Volt, he says that we need to meet at the hospital. It's about Ralfold.", Regina jolted "Ralfold Sensei?!". About an hour later, Regina and Volt were In shock as they saw Ralfold's dead body. The two were in a hospital room looking at their dead teacher with shock. The bones of his arms that being from his palms to his elbows were pulled off, he still had some blood stains on his body despite being washed up. Regina and Volt were speeches "Ralfold Sensei?", they muttered his name one more time in disbelief.
