Some Free Time

"Your Majesty, are you alright?" the man asked, seemingly worried about Alex. His eyes flashed briefly with surprise at the lack of wounds. And where was the broken left arm?

'Did he already eat a pill?' he wondered.

Alex still had blood all over himself, staining his skin and his clothes. He could send it back inside if he wanted to, but his body had already created the amount of blood he had lost. 

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty. I didn't hold myself back at the end there," the man said. Alex could hear panic in his voice, but when looking at his face, he didn't seem as panicked.

'Is he faking it?' he thought. Not that it mattered to him.

"Stop," Alex said. "Your name was Teng Roukang, right?"

"Yes, Your Majesty," the man said.

"Alright then, Roukang. You've won against me, and as promised, I will give you a pill. Which one do you want?" he asked.
