Chapter 25

The Calm Before the Storm

Asterios woke up with a groan. Scrunching his face, he raised his hands to rub his forehead but only one of them arrived at its destination unobstructed. Slightly confused, he slowly opened his eyes and quickly recognized the castle’s ceiling. He wasn’t in the master bedroom since there was a lack of the distinct canopies high above his head and the bed was clearly much narrower.

Tilting his head to the side, where his arm had refused to rise up earlier, he noticed a person sitting on a simple but comfortable chair with a padded backrest just next to the edge of the mattress. The scarlet-haired woman gently held his hand and smiled ever so softly at him.

“You are awake at last,” Silvia said in a hushed tone.

He decided to question the unusual situation in a moment and sighed softly while shifting a little. “What’s the time, and how long was I out?”

“An hour or two after noon. You’ve been asleep for two days since the summoning.” The princess saw his eyes widen a little and tenderly squeezed his hand. “Don’t worry and take it easy. The Storm King said it would take at least three days for you to regain the lost reserves so you must still be somewhat tired. Everything was taken care of after you went to rest. We made sure of that.”

Meeting Silvia’s kind gaze, Asterios nodded and tried to relax. He knew he could count on his friends and didn’t doubt that they had everything in perfect control. All the women were something else in the end, and the Committee members hadn’t suddenly disappeared.

Feeling the princess’ soft fingers brushing over the top of his hand, he moved his eyes to it. At first, he hadn’t noticed, but there was a faint connection between them, and warmth emanated from their touch, much more than it should.

“So, what’s the situation here?” Asterios asked, switching his gaze between their intertwined palms and Silvia’s face. “Not that I don’t find this nice, but I would expect Miria in your place instead with how much she usually worries about me.”

The princess let out a very subtle chuckle and nodded. “That’s true, and she did check on you the most out of all of us.” She then slightly lowered her head. “I’m sorry for acting on my own but shortly after we transported you here, I noticed that our mana mingled together just as usual, and I soon found out that my spiritual energy could somehow stimulate yours. I’m sure you can feel it even now.”

“I see.” Asterios nodded and brushed his finger over Siliva’s soft skin. “Does it drain you?”

She shook her head. “Not in the slightest. While I’ve certainly been sharing some of my mana with you, it’s not an amount worth mentioning. I would need to focus deeply to notice the effects and I haven’t felt anything worrisome during all my time here.”

“Don’t tell me you’ve been sitting here since the summoning.” Asterios raised his brows at her, and she responded with a slightly more apparent smile.
