While Juin was "talking" to the little fairy in his Soul Dimension, a small ruckus was happening outside in the real world. 

"Oh my god!" someone yelped when the fairy, who was touching Juin's forehead with two glowing palms, suddenly clasped its c.h.e.s.t with a pained expression and fell down onto Juin's face.

Its eyes were still wide open as it lay motionless on Juin's face, causing some of the onlookers in the medical room to feel unnerved. 

"What happened?" King Frederic asked as he looked at the fairy with a shocked expression. "Did the little fairy manage to save your boy?" 

"I guess it's too weak," Presley said calmly as he picked up the lifeless body of the little fairy. Once he made sure that the little fairy was completely dead, he pulled out a yellow talisman from his Soul Dimension. 

A red diagram appeared around the talisman as he mumbled something. The talisman then flew up, wrapped itself around the little fairy's body, and stared burning in crimson flames. 

"Nooo!!!" Cyrus cried out as he watched the little fairy's body being burned by the unnatural flames, and he tried to rush over to save its body, but Tucker pulled him back and turned him around, holding him close to himself. 

"Don't, this is a natural thing…" Tucker whispered as he held Cyrus tight. 

Everyone watched as the little fairy's body was burned to ash in just a few seconds. When its body was fully burned, the ash flew around the room before gathering into a tornado right above Juin's body. 

In front of everyone's eyes, the ash-tornado got smaller and smaller, until it formed into a small ball that was about the size of a ear stud. The ball then glowed brightly before dimming, until it became a small blue ball and fell onto the ground. 

The ball then rolled on the ground until it reached Cyrus' feet. 

"Ah, looks like the little fairy likes you…" Presley said with a smile. 

When a fairy died, it was said that their soul would return back to nature, while their body would be buried in the place of their birth. If they were unable to go back to their birthplace, the best thing would be to burn them into ashes, to avoid other people from misusing their body, which was said to have some medicinal properties. 

Cyrus picked up the small ball, which glowed slightly, and looked at Tucker. 

"When fairies are burned to ashes, they sometimes take on the elements of their surroundings and become objects that could contain the elements. See, that's blue, so it's a ball with water element in it. It's not that bright, so it's not a very strong one, but who knows, maybe it can help you in a way…" Tucker explained. 

Cyrus nodded. He took a quick glance at the ball before putting it into his pant pocket. He then glanced at Presley, who smiled at him, and looked back to Tucker. "How's Juin now? Is he ok?"

Before Tucker could say anything, the head doctor, Dr. Wren, suddenly exclaimed, "His bleeding has stopped!" 

Everyone immediately looked over, and sure enough, the blood flow had completely stopped, and Juin's face was slowly recovering some color. 

"He lost so much blood, yet he didn't look as pale as what he should be," one of the nurses whispered to another person. "Is it because he's from Earth?"

"No way… We had tended to a few Earth people before, and those who had lost a huge amount of blood would usually look extremely pale. I think this kid is an anomaly…"

"Shut up!" Dr. Wren warned. "Check his stats now!" 

There was a moment of silence, broken only by the sound of the things being moved… Until Dr. Wren took a sigh of relief and said to the king, "The boy is fine… He's… extremely fine, actually. All his broken bones have healed, and I'm guessing that's due to the effect of the pills…" 

He then looked at Tucker, and Presley followed suit. 

"What did you feed him?" 

"Just a few Bone Rejuvenation Pills and Blood Pills…" 

"Blood Pills?" Presley c.o.c.ked an eyebrow upon hearing that. "You really care for Juin, huh? I didn't expect that from you."

"He's my only disciple, after all," Tucker said nonchalantly.

They stared at each other for a while, until Presley broke it by turning to look at Juin. With an expressionless face, he thought, "Tucker has actually fully accepted you as his student. Great!"

A small smile appeared on his face, but he quickly hid it by coughing slightly and said to Dr. Wren, "I think that with the Bone Rejuvenation, the Blood Pills, and the little fairy's healing ability, Juin would be fine for now. Just make sure that he's well hydrated for the next few hours." 

Dr. Wren nodded. "Yes, President Presley."

"I should take my leave now then…" President Presley said before nodding at the king, indicating that he was ready to leave this room. As he walked out of the room, he gave Tucker one last glance, as if he could not believe that Tucker would sacrifice so much for a teenage boy. 

Presley was filthy rich, and he had a few Golden Fairy Orbs, so using one of a boy that he suspected to be the rumored king was not a bad trade. But Tucker was different. 

Blood Pills had the abilities of rejuvenating one's blood at a higher rate, replacing the damaged blood cells, and replenishing any lost blood as well. And one of the best thing about Blood Pills was that there would be no rejection rate at all. It was only a matter of time, as in how long would the user take to absorb it. 

It was one of the most difficult pills to concoct, and its difficulty lay in the fact that it required a blood sacrifice. 1 litre of blood could only create 1 small pill that could replenish roughly 100 ml of blood, and most supernatural beings would create it by using other people's blood, or if they want to be able to absorb it immediately, they would create Blood Pills using their own blood. 

However, blood loss was no joke, even among supernatural beings. One's body and soul were connected, and one's soul and soul power were also connected. A weakened body could affect one's soul power, and vice versa. Hence, when they were creating these Blood Pills, it was imperative that they made sure they were protected by others. 

Usually, the supernatural beings would create these Blood Pills as a backup, especially when they were about to embark on a journey. After all, things could happen, so these Blood Pills might come in handy in case they lost too much blood, sort of like a portable blood bank. 

And given the bad exchange rate, they definitely would not give it to others and would treat it preciously. 

And the other reason why Presley was surprised was that the Blood Pill also had another important effect, in that it could give the user a part of the blood provider's power. 

Tucker had never offered these Blood Pills to anyone before, not even to his teammates during their direst hours when they were out on expeditions, yet he gave it to his student, whom he had only known for a few months.

"Interesting," Presley thought as he walked out of the medical room. "Tucker Lee, what are you up to?"

He then laughed creepily to himself, which caused the king to shiver slightly as he gave him an odd look.
