Chapter 179: Damaged Vitality

"How is his condition now?" Ryder asked one of the men as he walked toward Rale.

"The wounds of Captain have healed. He fell asleep a few hours ago. He is resting now," the men replied.

"Let him rest. We will leave after he wakes up," Ryder muttered as he sat beside Rale, waiting for him to wake up.

He was glad that Rale was healed, though.

A few hours pa.s.sed away as they waited in silence.

Rale opened his eyes as his sleep was broken. He looked around, only to find Ryder sitting beside him.

"Your Highness," Rale greeted Ryder.

"How are you feeling, Rale?" Ryder inquired.

"I am fine. I just fell asleep. I apologize for that," Rale replied.

He stood up and stretched his arms, and jumped a few times to test his body.

"Yup, perfectly fine," Rale added.

"Good. Let's leave then. We are done in the Undead Region, but we still need to get to the portal before we are able to truly go back home," Ryder stood up.

They left the house.

Rale reached out his hand towards Ryder, hoping for him to hold on so that they could fly.

"Let me fly on my own for some time. I haven't flown for quite some time. I might be a little rusty," Ryder said to Rale as he started rising in the air.

"You can fly?"

Not only Rale but everyone present there was surprised.

"Yeah, but as I said, I'm rusty, so you'd need to adjust your speed sometimes. Let's go now," Ryder let out as he started flying forward.

Rale and the others also started flying.

Ryder was not proficient in flying, and it was evident in his flying pattern. Sometimes he flew up and then other times, he suddenly came down. It seemed like he was flying in a zigzag motion, trying to find the perfect balance.

After flying for over ten minutes, he started getting the hang of flying. His control was improving, and now he was able to fly much better.

He flew for slightly over fifty minutes before he slowed down.

"That's it for me today. I won't slow you down anymore. Rale, hold my hand and carry me," Ryder said to Rale as he reached out his hand.

Rale caught his hand and started carrying Ryder with him.

They increased speed and continued flying forward.

As they flew, they tried to avoid cities and people as much as possible, which seemed to be working.

Ryder wasn't sure if it was a coincidence or great luck, but they didn't face any trouble along the way and reached the point of the portal with ease.

Ryder brought the portal key out of his storage and raised it high in the air.

A portal appeared before him.

He and the others entered the portal and appeared inside the Royal Palace of the Demon Realm.

He closed the portal after everyone was in the palace.

He and the others left the underground and went to the higher floors.

"You guys worked hard. Go and rest," Ryder said to the men, sending them to their places.

'Rale, You're coming with me. I need you to see a physician," Ryder told Rale.

"We can't... They will start asking how I got injured. It would be better if we don't let anyone know what we just did," Rale said, shaking his head.

He didn't want to bring suspicion over Ryder.

"Don't worry about that. We can claim that you were hurt in training because you held back to test your limits. The physician won't ask too many questions," Ryder replied as he held Rale's hand and took him to a certain place.

The Royal Palace did have a physician in case of emergencies. The physician spent most of his day in his room, studying as there were no health emergencies in the palace.

Ryder took Rale to the room of the physician and knocked on the door.

"Who is it?" the physician asked from inside.

"It is I, Prince Hades. Open the door," Ryder replied in a stern tone.

The door was instantly opened.

"Your Highness, Please forgive me. I never expected that it would be you. You should've sent a servant to call me if you needed me." The Physician replied with a smile on his face.

An old man was standing before Ryder, in a grey coat that seemed like a lab coat. There was a tiny horn on the forehead of the man. This man was the Royal Physician of the Palace that only had one job to do, which was to heal the people of the Royal Palace.

"Don't waste time. This is an emergency. Rale was hurt during the training. Even though he has healed, I still want you to check him. I want you to examine him to see if there is anything wrong or not," Ryder told the demon physician.

"Ah, please. Master Rale, please come inside. Lie on the bed," the Physician told Rale as he stepped aside.

Rale walked inside and laid on the bed that was on one side of the room. Ryder also entered the room and stood behind.

The Physician started checking the body.

"You were right. There is evidence of damage even though the wounds have healed. His vitality is somewhat damaged. I can't even imagine how you are dealing with the pain without letting it show on your face," The Physician let out after he finished the checkup.

"Pain?" Ryder asked with a stunned look on his face.

"Yeah, Master Rales Vitality is damaged. Even though his vitality will recover in a day or so, he would be in extreme pain until then. I would never have guessed looking at his face. Master Rale is a strong demon who probably doesn't want anyone to see the pain on his face," The physician told Ryder before he started looking at Rale. "You can't be like that, Master Rale. Sometimes it's good to tell others when you're in pain."

"I want you to heal him instantly! It doesn't matter what it takes! I don't want Rale to be in pain for even a second more!" Ryder commanded as he walked closer to Rale.

"I know you don't want to worry me, but you can't go around hiding things from me. If you do this again, no one would be worse than me," Ryder said to Rale with a stern look on his face. "You understand?"

"Yes, Your Highness," Rale replied with an apologetic look on his face.

The doctor walked to the shelf on the side and brought some things out.
