Delphine was able to get out of bed by the second day. Apart from avoiding strenuous movements, everything else was normal; she only needed to remain in the hospital for observation.
The crew rushed back to the Imperial City and came to visit her early in the morning. The room was crowded with a throng of people, but after barely exchanging five sentences, they were overwhelmed by the oppressive aura of the icy man who had just returned. Soon, they scattered in retreat.
Delphine seized the moment when Ignatius Leclair stepped out and got up to visit Cassius Turner.
Cassius had already been moved to the intensive care unit. He had just recently regained consciousness. When Delphine asked about the room, the Land Family was all gathered inside. The door was slightly ajar. Mrs. Land was choking back tears as she said, "You foolish child, how could you go to such a perilous place? I know you care deeply about that girl, but it was hardly worth risking your life over."
