 It had been a week since Rio was brought back from the dungeon. The injuries of his have all but healed already, even the signs of EMMSY had started to subside again slowly. 

The healers from the circle had said that he should be able to wake up completely soon, and that his body was showing signs of a perfect recovery. Which was surprising considering how badly he was wounded, but they accustomed it with the blessings he had received in the recent days. 

It seems his arrival was not only a surprise to mortals, but even Gods. Who have been watching him constantly now. Some had even come forward, giving him their blessings too. 

Even though he couldn't use those to heal himself, his body's Constitution has been getting better slowly. He didn't look like a skeleton wrapped in skin now. His body was getting its previous glow back, with all the potions and nutrition he's been getting supplied daily. 

Amelia was sitting inside the room, looking at her brother laying still on the bed. Her thoughts and emotions hidden behind her expressions, making her seem lost in her own thoughts. 

The memories of the last time she saw him came to her mind, reminding her of how she fought with him and how angry he looked at that time. She had been thinking about that for a while lately, wondering if he regretted it too, as much as she did now.

For the past 2 years, the guilt that the last memory of his she had was one where they both fought like that, had been weighing on her mind a lot. And the thought that he died with that anger, when she couldn't even say sorry or mend their relationship has been haunting her a little.

This is why, when she heard he was back, that he was alive and fine, she didn't know how to react. She was happy, so so so happy that he was safe now. But the worry that he might be still angry at her or even hate her had been eating at her heart now. 

And the more time she spent near his bedside, watching him sleeping, the more her anxiety grew.

She still remembered the first time she saw him after he was brought back, even though the injuries of his were healed by then, the scars of it were still visible on him and she only felt even more guilty watching them. 

After all, she was, partly responsible for everything. If not for her, then he wouldn't have _.

[Watch out]

Her thoughts were stopped when she read the notification. Before she could understand anything, she felt something coming towards her head, she lifted her arms to block it by instinct, when she felt someone grabbing her hand and twisting it. 

Surprised she looked down, only to see Rio who was staring at her dead in the eyes. "Brother "

Before she could say something more, a kick connected to her head.Though just before the kick landed, she used her mana to form a shield around her, but she was still a step too late, as the force behind that kick, still knocked her head against the wall.

Ignoring the little sting she felt, she looked at her brother, who was standing on his bed, looking around everything. 

"Brother, you're aw_"

She was saying something when she was interrupted again as Rio kicked a pillow to her face, she raised her hands to catch it, but while her vision was blinded for a second, she felt a kick to her lungs that pushed her back some steps. 

'What the hell'

[Stop trying to talk to him. I don't think he knows where he is. Just knock him out again.]

The same notification from her goddess rang out in her ears, but she ignored it like always. 

"Brother, it's fine now. You're home. You're not in the dungeon anymore."

She said, as she started walking towards him with her hands in the air, showing him she had no intention of fighting or attacking him. 

She was trying to calm him down. When he simply lunged forward, swinging his hands at her. Amelia dodged his swings, as she kept trying to calm him. 

Soon he started using his mana to enhance his speed and the force behind them. He backed a step as he swung his arm at her head, which just cut through air because of the increased gap between them. 

 His eyes darted towards his hands where his swords should've appeared from his storage ring, but looking at the empty fingers, he glared at Amelia with confused eyes. The realization that he was weaponless seemed to frustrate him further.

"Who are you?" He asked as he took more steps back. 

"I'm Amelia, your sister, remember." 

"You're not in the dungeon anymore, everything's over now. You're home." She said, as she slowly started walking towards him. 

"Amelia" Rio muttered slowly, as he looked down. He soon started taking deep breaths, Amelia came near him, she put her hands on his shoulders, as she said "You're home brother. It's all _"

[Amelia, stop _ ]

The words came to a sudden halt, as she felt a grip around her throat. Rio choked her tightly, as he said "Never use her face _ to trick me. I told you I'll kill you, if you do."

His cold words ended as the warning, when he started to increase his strength and pushed whatever mana he could feel inside him to kill her. 

Amelia struggled to free herself, when he lifted her up from the ground. Her face was getting red in color, as she felt trouble breathing. 

[Back off] 

A sudden gust of pressure hit Rio, making his steps falter, but he still kept his hands around her neck, as he channeled his aura, to fight the pressure. Cracks formed under his steps but his grip didn't get any loose. 

His fingers started turning darker. Panic surged through Amelia as her vision started getting blurry, she struggled to free herself, but to no avail "B rro ther "

"N _ever again" He said. 

Suddenly the doors of the room opened and saw what's happening. She disappeared from her place as she came forward and knocked Rio out. She caught Amelia, while she started coughing and struggling to breathe.

"What _what happened?" Amelia asked, looking at her mother, who was now helping Rio back to bed. 

"The aftereffects of EMMSY. He just woke up in a world different than one his body grew used to. His brain probably hasn't registered itself to its surroundings. He's probably confused. The healers had warned us that something similar might happen." Artemis said, as she took out a potion and poured it in his mouth. 

"But he was awake and _" Amelia said, as she remembered how he didn't even recognize her or showed any emotions on his face. 

"Don't worry. These symptoms are normal. He'll be fine soon enough." Artemis came forward and hugged Amelia, whose heart was beating rapidly even now. "He's gonna be fine, I promise."

Her words calmed Amelia, as she hugged her back. Her eyes focused on Rio again as she wondered if things could ever go back to the way they were.
