Ethan felt something soft, and warm touching the side of his face, which made him slowly open his eyes.

He felt so sleepy that he just wanted to sleep, but someone seemed to be calling out to him, refusing to allow him to continue sleeping.

"Ethan, wake up,” a kind, and soothing voice said. “How long do you plan to keep sleeping? The next match will be happening soon.”

He was still groggy from sleep, and his vision was still a bit blurry. Because of this, he was unable to identify the person talking to him.

Ethan simply thought that he was back at their farmhouse, where his Grandpa and Grandma lived with him.

His Grandma usually woke him up in the mornings, so he replied automatically without thinking.

"Just five more minutes, Grandma…,” Ethan replied softly as he looked at the person that was caressing his face. “Um, is it just me or has the number of wrinkles on your face increased again?”

Suddenly, the hand that was caressing his face paused. A second later, his “Grandma” pinched his cheek hard, making him cry out in shock.

All his drowsiness went away in an instant, and his gaze locked on his beautiful childhood friend, who was looking down on him as if she wanted to punch him silly.

"Who are you calling Grandma, huh?!” Chloe asked while showing Ethan her fist, which made the blue-haired boy suddenly realize what he had just done half a minute ago.

"Good morning, Chloe,” Ethan replied before wincing in pain.

He didn’t feel it a moment ago, but after being pinched, he seemed to have regained the senses in his body.

"I-I can’t move?” Ethan tried to prop himself up to a sitting position, but he couldn’t muster any strength in his body. The most he could do was move his head, but aside from that, his body felt as heavy as lead.

"Calm down, Ethan,” a soothing voice reached Ethan’s ears, making him look at the right side of the bed.

Luna, who had been reading a book in the corner, stood up and approached Ethan with a smile on her face.

"You’re suffering from Mana Deficiency, so it will take a while for you to regain your strength,” Luna explained. “For the time being, why don’t you drink this potion first? It was made by Terra Manor and is the first aid method that we use for Wizards and Witches that have exhausted their magical energies.”

Without even waiting for Ethan’s reply, Luna sat beside the bed and gently lifted his head from the pillow.

She then slowly poured the potion on Ethan’s lips, making the blue-haired boy look less pale than he was earlier.

"Thank you, Luna,” Ethan said. “You’re a lifesaver.”

"Heh~ it seems that the two of you have become so close all of a sudden,” Chloe commented as she narrowed her eyes. “Did something happen as of late?”

Luna, who was using her shoulder to support Ethan’s head blinked once then twice before realizing what Chloe was talking about.

However, instead of pushing Ethan away, she just gently laid his head back on the pillow before lightly brushing his head.

"Ethan and I are both in the Dud Manor, and are good friends,” Luna replied. “Isn’t it normal for friends to be close to each other?”

"Are Noah and Sir Henry your friends as well?” Chloe arched an eyebrow. “Do you feel comfortable enough to do what you did to Ethan with them?”

Luna’s hand that was brushing Ethan’s head suddenly stiffened. Even though she considered Noah and Sir Henry her friends, she wouldn’t do the same thing she did with Ethan to them.

Ethan knew that Luna was in a pinch, so he lightly coughed in order to catch the attention of the two girls.

"What happened after I lost consciousness?” Ethan asked. “Is the battle between Schwartz Manor over?”

Chloe and Luna glanced at each other. Clearly, the young lady with light-brown hair still had questions to ask Luna, but decided to put it aside for now.

"After you lost consciousness, Professor Rinehart said that the next match will take place after an hour,” Chloe explained. “The arena was destroyed, so they needed some time to fix it.”

Just as Chloe was about to say more, the door of the room opened and several fairies flew inside the room, catching the three teenagers by surprise.

"Ethan, we have come to save you!” Ruby shouted. “Hmph! Those witches from the Terra Manor thought that they could stop us from coming into the infirmary? There’s no place in the Academy that Fairies can’t go!”

"That’s right! We’ve come to save you!” a pretty Fairy with purple hair declared before grabbing Ethan’s finger and attempting to pull him up. “We won’t let those girls steal your candies. Those are things that rightfully belong to us!”

"Yes! Candies!” the other Fairies all replied in unison.

A moment later, the blue-haired boy was swarmed by dozens of Fairies who pulled on his fingers, hair, and clothes, in an attempt to lift him up.

Chloe and Luna giggled as they watched the Fairies attempt to help Ethan off the bed, but they were unable to do so.

"This is not the way, sisters,” Ruby stated. “Use Fairy Dust on him!”

Okay!

The Fairies then sprinkled golden dust on Ethan’s body, and his face, making him sneeze.

Half a minute later, the Fairies tried to pull him up again, and this time, the blue-haired boy’s body rose up.

"Good! Let’s take him away!” Ruby declared. “Follow me sisters. We will not allow anyone to steal his candies!”

Yes!

Chloe and Luna watched as the group of enthusiastic fairies carried Ethan out of the room.

A moment later, shouts of surprise from the Medics of Terra Manor spread in the hallways.

"You fairies. Just what do you think you’re doing?!” one of the pretty ladies of Terra Manor, who was in charge of taking care of the injured Wizards and Witches from the magical duels, asked with a furious look on her face. “Where are you taking the patient?!”

"Calm down, girlie!” the purple haired Fairy, who was pulling on Ethan’s hair replied. “We’re just going to take him back to the arena as part of our agreement with him. You think we don’t know that you plan to take our candy supplier away from us? You girls got some guts!”

"That’s right!” Ruby commented. “We saw how you girls looked at Ethan earlier. Clearly, you planned to take advantage of him, while he is unable to defend himself. We will not allow that to happen!”

"Yes! Don’t touch our candy supplier! Find your own sugar daddy!’

"There are other Wizards in the Academy, so go to them instead. Ethan belongs to us Fairies! We will not let any of you ugly Witches have him!”

The Fairies then started to cast sneezing spells at the Medics who were blocking their way, catching the Witches by surprise.

"Let’s go, sisters!” Ruby shouted as the witches started to sneeze one by one. “I’ll open a path for us!”

"Go!”

"Hurry!”

Chloe and Luna didn’t know whether to laugh or cry after seeing this scene.

In the end, the two of them ran after the renegade Fairies who infiltrated the Infirmary just to rescue their Candy Supplier, who had promised to give each of them fifty bags of candies.
