Time flies and soon one month passed and yet Alex was still in a coma.
Today was another day. The sun, that daughter of the sky, once again took her rightful place on the horizon. She let her rays cascade onto the world, bringing the scene into full view, adjusting the brightness and contrast.
~Eria's City, The Moonlight Inn. Alex and Gracier's room.
Gracier woke up as usual and after bathing, Silveria appeared and helped her clean Alex.
As they finished, they both sat on Gracier's bed looking at each other. Even though they can't be considered friends, at least the relationship between the two improved.
''Little Alexandra, you are not planning to go on farming today?" Silveria asked.
"No, I'll rest today. Farming without Big brother is tiring. Besides even though I didn't reach the first goal, I managed to complete the second goal. I'm now Level 45." Gracier announced, proudly sticking her a rather modest chest.
"Waouh! Congrats then." Silveria said while embracing Gracier. Gracier didn't push her away and reciprocated for a moment until they both separated themselves from each other.
Gracier summoned her status and showed it to Silveria, there is no harm to show Silveria her status.

''Not bad. It seems that you've acquired few new useful skills and even a special ability. Ignia constant strengthening has given you 200 MP and 100 points on defense. With your current level, I think you won't be too far from your brother."
Silveria praised Gracier, the latter was happy at first but become dejected as soon as she heard of her brother, dejected for the simple reason that he was still in the coma.
"Sil, when did you think he will wake up? It has been one month already."
"Seriously, even I don't even know. His evolution is already finished, there are no injuries, and yet he shows no signs of waking up. I'm starting to worry but Big sister said to wait he will be waking up soon."
Silveria said as she remembered the short conversation she had with her sister when after all she was doing Alex showed no signs of waking up, her sister told her to not disturb him and let him wake up on his own, which will happen soon.
"Hope it's true," Gracier said after hearing Silveria's words.
Knock! Knock!
Suddenly, there was knocking sound, Gracier stood up and went to open the door, Silveria stayed because she knew who was the person knocking.
"Morning, Leena."
"Morning, little Cier."
"Please come in."
After exchanging a light greeting with each other Gracier invited Leena in.
As she entered the room, Leena's eyes quickly scanned the room, she spotted a smiling Silveria and a sleeping Alex. She couldn't help but sigh softly, I hope you will wake up soon, Boy, you only have a week before class starts at the Imperial Magic Academy.
While thinking about the Imperial Magic Academy, Leena advanced and sat on a chair.
"Howdy little Leena?"
"I'm fine as you can see. As for you, you are still lively as always. You don't seem to worry about your master's state."
Pouting Silveria said, "I'm worried about him but worry will not help him. We only need to wait for him to wake up."
"If you say so," Leena said before looking at Gracier, having noticed that her level went up substantially since the last time she visited, she praised the girl while wearing a smile on her face.
"Good job Gracier, with your current level who knows maybe you have caught up with your brother or even surpassed him."
Gracier could only smile when she heard this, inwardly she was thinking 'There is no way that it's true because he killed that monster, well you don't know this hence it is normal for you to joke like that.'
On the other side, Silveria rolled her eyes when she heard Leena's words, Leena smiled when she saw that.
The three girls continued chatting until Lea brought them the breakfast before excusing herself as she still had work to do.
After Lea left, Silveria reappeared and ate with the girls. The three resumed their talk shortly after they were done eating. It was just casual talk, things concerning fashion and so on.
Without knowing, three hours passed in the blink of an eye, Leena decided to go back after another two hours.
Suddenly, there was a movement coming from Alex's side, startled the three looked in Alex's direction to see Alex who had abruptly raised his upper body and like a robot turned his head in their direction before opening his eyes.
Buzz~
Leena's head buzzed for a moment when she locked eyes with Alex, Silveria's jaw hit the floor as she was surprised by what she was seeing, while Gracier body started to tremble uncontrollably until,
Bang!
She had fallen onto the bed unconscious. It was Ignia who makes her unconscious if not, the damage she'd suffered wouldn't be light, just a second was enough to make her paralyzed in fear, she was sent into a world where she re-experienced that tragedy that had befallen her village, fortunately, Ignia had been quick enough to knock her out, breaking her from that illusion.
[Seriously, what with these siblings? One gift skills like candy and now this? This is called cheating.] Ignia spat as she watched Alex, more particularly his eyes.
~Back to sibling's room.
Finally back to herself, Leena looked strangely at Alex, she felt uncomfortable under his stare and before she could intervene, Silveria was faster, flicking her fingers Alex immediately fell back on the bed unconscious.
"What was that?" Leena asked because what happened surpassed whatever she experienced.
Alex's normal green eyes were no more when he opened his eyes, only his left eye remained green while his right eye became blue, beautiful chilling blue that sends shivers down to those who stared into it.
"Like you, I'm clueless about what happened."
Silveria lied through her teeth. Leena rolled her eyes when she heard this. Obviously, Silveria knew something and yet she refused to talk about it. Even though, her expression was normal when she answered she couldn't conceal the happiness she was feeling inside her eyes.
Indeed as Leena guessed, Silveria was happy, truly happy at the moment, if not for Leena's presence, she would be laughing while dancing.
'Eh? Big sister's sure generous. Never would I have thought you'd do this. What an unexpected gift and timely as that. No wonder, he didn't wake for one month. You knew it, it was why you told me to not do anything, to just wait for him to wake up. Hehehe! Things are about to become interesting. It's good to see you back, master.'
Silveria checked Gracier's body and having noticed no obvious damage taken after staring at Alex, she heaved a sigh of relief. It must be Ignia doing. Thanks to her, the worse has been avoided. Silveria thought before moving her attention on Leena.
"What?" Leena asked when she noticed Silveria's intense stare.
"Nothing, I just wondering if you have an eye patch on you."
Leena glared at her, she almost asked what do you take me for? However, she calmed down as she remembered that indeed she had an eye patch on her, she was planning to give it to Gracier as the one she gave her before they went on the mission was lost. Hence, she had prepared another one she planned to hand over to her today.
"Yes, I do have one on me, how do you know?" She asked.
Shrugging her shoulders Silveria responded,
"Just a hunch. I thought you'd prepare another one for her. Please lend it to me."
Sighing Leena took out a black eye patch from her space ring and hand over to Silveria, as Silveria took it, she thanked Leena before moving toward Alex's bed, once there she crouched down and put the eye patch around his right eye.
The black eye patch plus Alex's handsome face, his long black hair was giving him a cool vibe and a mysterious air, Silveria had the impulse to tied Alex's hair into a ponytail to see the result.
However, she refrained from doing it, caressing Alex's face she went back and sat down.
"Let's wait." She said.
Leena did not say anything, she was lost in thoughts, judging by Silveria's action, whatever happened to Alex's right eye seemed permanent, if not Silveria wouldn't have bothered putting an eye patch around his right eye.
Glancing at the two sleeping siblings, Leena could not help chuckle thinking, indeed there are siblings, the little sister wear it on her left eye while the Big brother wears it on his left eye. What an interesting brother-sister pair.
"Let's wait then," Leena said with a faint smile on her face.
Silveria only glanced at her before closing her eyes while humming an unknown song happily.
