Recovering Part 3

Whether her assumption is correct, she doesn't care. She already knows why two were trying to keep it a secret from her since it could be something dangerous if something gets leaked out about the existence of Systems that not even four of the Primordial Gods know it. Ayame and Serene only want the best for her and even if that means that means keeping some things secret from her because telling the secret of the System could go two ways, it could deepen her knowledge and take advantage of it to use it more wisely and better to make herself powerful or she could get hunted down because of the knowledge that she has on something that has never seen before in the Immortal Realm.

"Oh, is that so? That's pretty interesting." Yuki didn't show much reaction after hearing the secret about the System that her Mother just revealed to her because she doesn't want to reveal anything just yet, it would still be better if she would be the one who reveal it to her. And because of her lackluster reaction, Ayame didn't suspect a thing and just continued.

"So… I'm sorry, but this time. I wouldn't be much help since I can't really tell you what kind of rewards you got, especially that Trial Key. This is my first time hearing and seeing such a thing, though I can already tell that it's a very important item because the System wouldn't give it to you so easily like that." Ayame said the truth with a sad tone in her, she felt sad that she wasn't able to give any information that Yuki needed to know the details of the Trial Key.

"It doesn't matter to me. I'll just use it to know what it can really do. Plus, I'm interested to see what it would do, but judging from the name. I'm already assuming that it would give me a Trial that I need to pass, just like the time when I got my Blood Manipulation Skills. Momozano gave me a trial to pass so that she let me use those two Skills." Yuki shrugged it off because in reality she truly doesn't care if her Mother have any information about the Trial Key, but of course, it would be good if she can hold even some little information about it. In response, Ayame held Yuki's arm and held it tightly between her hands and sighed in relief.

"Thank you… Also… Yuki? Can I ask you something, now that you're awake?" Ayame said and Yuki felt the hands that were holding hers suddenly tightened. Suddenly she had a bad premonition because she already knows where it was going, so she only give a silent nod and let her Mother continue.

"It's about your Family… they are already awake. Me and Serene have taken care of them after you passed out, we took them out of the System Space before nursing them back to their old condition. But of course… no matter how much we heal the physical body of all its wounds, we can't simply do the same with their Mental and Emotional wound." After they woke up, we gave them space to let them calm down and process everything, but I was too nervous to speak to them so we just gave them food and left them to be alone." Ayame didn't know how she could give that kind of news more lightly than it already is, she knows how hard to release that kind of news to the person who was most affected by the things that happened to them.

"I… I see. Are they at least eating anything?" Yuki's voice shook a bit as she asked her Mother not sure if she really wants to hear the answer.

"Yes, all of them are eating nicely. But all of them definitely changed after being captured by the Royal Destruction. I know that this is going to be hard, but just so you know, we are here to help you. You are not alone. No matter what kind of help you need, just say it to me. I will try my best to assist you." Ayame tried her best to give some hope to Yuki as she hugged her little body. Yuki felt warmness in her heart when she felt her Mother hugging her so lovingly and it made her feel at ease, but even so, she didn't return the hug because of other reasons that Ayame totally understand.

"Are all of them in one room? If so, I would like to see all of them." When Ayame heard Yuki's question, she already knew what to do and only silently nodded her head. She then left Yuki's bed and stood to the side and watches as Yuki got out of bed normally, and seeing this, she has now truly finds how terrifying her healing capabilities are. But it was just sad to see that she was missing an arm.

"Do any of them already know what my current condition is? If not, then don't tell them anything, I don't want them getting more anxious and sad than they already are. If they hear that I'm missing an arm, I'm afraid what could happen." Yuki said in a deep sigh as she followed after her Mother who was now leading the way where Anna, Fumiko, Yumie, Katsumi, and Aika are.

"No, none of us have revealed anything because we don't want to stress them anymore. But they do know that you were in a short coma because like I said, they woke up earlier than you. And the first thing that they did was to find you. But I stopped them by saying that you were in a coma. Did I mess up by telling them that?" Ayame was not quite sure if what she did was right or not, her telling them that Yuki was in a coma was also bad because there is a chance that they might blame themselves for getting her in such a situation.

"No, it's fine. Thank you for that… Now, can I talk to them privately? I want to talk to all of them alone." Yuki asked as she created a fake arm using her Blood Manipulation and even if the arm that she made was identical to her real arm, it wasn't at the same time. Because she can't even move it, all of it was just props so that they can see that she was fine, Worse scenario possible is if they learn that she was faking her injury on her right hand, when in truth it was already gone.

"Yeah, of course. I understand what you are trying to do and I'm not going to stop you. Just promise me that whatever happens, you need to be strong at all times, okay?" Ayame hugged Yuki once again as she gently reminded her before she finally took her leave. Watching her Mother's body disappear from the hallway, she took a deep breath as she knocked on the door before she entered and what greeted her inside is just as she expected. The air around the five of them was dreadful which made Yuki's inside crumble, she felt as if a Knife was piercing her heart and that it was being twisted open. It was so painful to see them in such a depressing state. But once all of them finally realized who just entered the room, their eyes lit up as all of them struggled to leave their bed and rushes towards Yuki.

"Don't… don't get up. I know that all of you are hurt, so don't bother. Just rest." Yuki's true emotion was hidden behind her face as she watches how all of them react to her arrival.
