"Thank you, Lord Aegis, for saving my master," Ruina said sincerely, lowering her head.
Aegis waved it off.
"Forget it. Why hasn't she woken up yet?"
Ruina replied calmly, "My master was afflicted by a hex. She should recover by morning."
Aegis had many questions he wanted to ask Bella, but it seemed he would not get the chance anytime soon.
He turned to leave.
"Well then, take care of her."
"Wait!"
Ruina flapped her wings and stopped him in his tracks.
Aegis and Pyro both looked at the silver dragon with visible annoyance.
Before Aegis could speak, Ruina hurriedly spoke first:
"Please don't leave yet, Lord Aegis. In actually, My master and I have been searching for you all this time."
"You were searching for me?" Aegis asked, his expression turning cold. "Why? Did you come to kill me?"
"No, no, no!"
Ruina shook her draconic head frantically, clearly terrified of being misunderstood.
