Chapter 219 - 8.26
Altair opened his heavy eyes after so long. He didn’t remember how long had he been sleeping, but Altair hadn’t been sleeping for two days straight, on top of his dried wounds and also his over exhaustion after beating that Giant Wasp. It was fortunate enough that he could still open his eyes.
His eyes observed around. He was inside a room with modest decoration and a low ceiling. It was pretty weird for him to stay inside this kind of space since he was used to living in luxury with his parents status.
Altair looked around to find no one until the door was opened from outside, and a man came to him with a food trolley. He had a big, muscular body, but when he pushed the food trolled with one hand, the image looked very cute in Altair’s eyes.
General Vega was surprised when he saw Altair finally woke up. His sullen face was brightened once more, but it seemed that General Vega was self-conscious about his expression. Thus, he dimmed his expression and acted serious once more.
"Cadet Altair, I’m glad that you are awake," General Vega said. He pushed the food trolley at the side of the bed and then asked Altair, "Are you alright? You’ve been unconscious for two days."
"I’m alright," Altair nodded. His eyes didn’t leave General Vega, who had a bandage on his left arm and stitches on his collarbone area. His right arm was also bandaged, but not as bad as the left arm.
Altair gritted his teeth and looked away, but he said, "I’m sorry that I’m unable to save you sooner, General. I should’ve been able to fight against them quicker and came here earlier to help you."
"No, it’s okay..." General Vega shook his head, "But I wonder... what happened between you and Price Rigel." General Vega asked. He was pretty much sure that Rigel had his pheromone, so it would be impossible to ignore him just like that.
"... I will tell you," Altair took a deep breath pada recalled the day when Prince Rigel tried to seduce him four days ago.
