RED CHERRY

[SYSTEM REBOOTING...]

He opened his eyes slowly and realised he was in a room with a large window that lit the inside with the sun's rays.The walls were a mixture of red and blue colour,a weird combination.The bed itself was highly comfortable.Lifting his upper body,he realised that he had no clothes on as he covered himself up quickly with the bed sheets because there was a woman at the side of the bed who just stood there gazing at him.

"Oh-you are awake,"the nurse said as she hid her red cheeks away from Glen."You'll just have to allow me to apply a scorch syrup on your back."She picked a bowl that was on a table placed at the side and turned towards Glen.On Glen's perspective,the young woman looked kinda cute when she's shy.But had to avoid looking at certain parts of her body so that a part of him won't be triggered in a way that made him feel uncomfortable.

She held him on the right shoulder and turned him to the side a bit to reveal his back."Your wound! It's gone!"She kept on touching his back with her soft hand,that she even had to put down the bowl and use both of her hands to confirm the mystery.It was after some minutes of touchy touchy that she became embarrassed with her face super red hot.

"Sorry- about that-,"she spoke as she looked at the ground avoiding eye contact with the person,"It's just that - your wound...I mean the scorch that was on your back,it has disappeared."

Glen obviously knew nothing about a wound, but one thing was clear infront of him.

All this add ups were making him super excited,but one thing had caused him to jump off the bed and stood on his feet.Nancy,the nurse,was frozen in place as she looked him up and down.He seemed to have not yet realised that she was still there.Her fingers were shaking intensely while she watched the mad handsome muscular young man standing openly infront of her.

[YOU ARE NOW LEVEL 6]

All the excitement made him jump all about almost hugging the person infront of him, until "Marry me..."Nancy mumbled loud enough for Glen to hear.And that was when he remembered."HELL!!Where are my clothes?!"He covered his part with both of his hands.

He was given his clothes and wore them quickly.Without telling her anything but a 'thanks',he left the room so fast leaving the nurse behind.

She sat on the bed still frozen as her face was still red."I promise you that you will be mine..."She was all cherry.

————

"Hell!What was that?!"He felt embarrassed as his face had turned red too.His hearing had improved greatly that he was able to hear her last words."Make me hers?! REALLY!"He screamed at the top of his lungs while running.He had acted too rush that he didn't realize the clothes he wore were not his.Everything on him had improved greatly.His speed, agility and the rest.He noted that his body had become a bit muscular,and his hair was a little longer than before.

He had no time to read all the explanations as he was already at the knights' sleeping area.He searched around but there was no one around.He ran at the canteen and no one was also there.With his new speed he was able to ran through within seconds at a distance that would take a normal knight minutes all tired but Glen did not even break a sweat.

His ears picked up some cheering from a certain direction.He turned and ran out of the canteen, leaving the canteen keeper all confused as he dropped the mop he was using to clean the area.Just seconds a boy suddenly appeared in the room out of thin air,and then some other seconds later he had disappeared.

"Please welcome,the ruler of the land,King Arthur!"Henry's voice was projected across the arena as the ground shook with all the cheering from the young knights.

"I've never got to see how he looks like."

"Me too."

They were so excited at the moment.When the mentioned person walked out of a hall,and went up the high platform,the shaking became intense that Arthur had to wait for them to finish.It was after a while that Henry stood next to the king and signaled them to stop.He then walked back down after the cheers stopped.

"Greetings to my loyal royal army,"his voice was so loud that he needed no projector for his voice."I know it has been so pressuring for you,you know,being 90% kidnapped and forced here and being taken to war so immediately.

"But I've been impressed that you are no longer trying to escape even when you were out there fighting yesterday.So thank you all for cooperating."The teenagers accepted this open heartedly,by the end of the day,they had no grudge on the king.

"The reason for calling you here today...is to reward you all for the skills you shown yesterday."

The knights went back to cheering.They immediately knew that today they will be ranked on the knight system.But soon they went silent.They wanted to keenly listen to what rank they will be on.

"With the help of Hen-...Sorry Henry,"this made Henry twitch a bit out of embarrassment,"With the help of Earl Henry,we ranked each one of you already.The only thing left is to tell you your position.We were able to evaluate your skills by you being observed while fighting."

Some of the knights became embarrassed because they knew that they had either run away a lot and being chased by the demons, while others hid behind the wrecked houses.

"Where the hell were you?!"Sam asked the person who had suddenly appeared next to him,"I know you weren't okay,but it took you so long!"

"The best thing is that am okay now and am not late for the event."
