However, when Cale woke up, he was laying in an extremely beautiful, almost to the point of overwhelming, flower garden. There was even a weird leaf crown on his head.

It was a crown made from the World Tree�s leaves.

Cale was nervous at what might be going on.

Cale felt like he was coming out of a swamp as he came back to his senses. He tried to recall what had happened.

�I fainted.�

He had no strength left and fainted. Cale realized that it was time for him to open his eyes. It was because he could hear a voice in his head.

� 3, 2, 1. Half, half of half � human, I will count back down from 100. Wake up before I reach 0, or I will destroy this continent. 100, 99, 98��

Cale heard Raon�s voice and immediately opened his eyes. He was shocked at what he saw.

�A flower garden?�

There were flower petals floating in the air. Raon�s voice could be heard by his ear.

�N, ninety-five!�

The voice that was as quiet as a whisper seemed to be shocked.

Cale lowered his head. The voice had come from on top of his stomach. He raised his hand to feel something invisible on his stomach. It was Raon.

�Has he been here the whole time?�

Cale got scared thinking about how this Black Dragon would have been reciting his countdown the entire time. Cale felt the naturally cold reptilian skin as he patted Raon�s back. Other people would think that he was patting thin air.

He then turned his gaze.

�Mm.�

Why did the first face he saw have to be Ron�s? Ron, whose benign smile was missing, looked stiff as he stopped what he was doing and focused on Cale. What Ron was doing made Cale become scared.

��Why is he sharpening his blade?�

Ron was sharpening his dagger at the boundaries of the flower garden. He seemed to have removed all of the blood off the dagger, as it was shining under the blue sky. Cale felt like just touching it would cut his skin.

Cale blankly stared until he turned his gaze after hearing Raon�s voice.

� Human! Why did you faint for three days?! I can make hundreds of thunderbolts like that! Do not do that ever again! Weaklings should live like weaklings!

�3 days? I fainted for 3 days? Me?�
