At Dr Sylv's instructions, Chunji wordlessly held down Davil to the overseer's instruction. He could feel Davil struggling as Dr. Sylv proceeded with the operation. From the brief respite they were given, Chunji was unsure how much essence Iraleth, and he could provide, but it was a given that they would stake any amount of sacrifice for Davil's sake. However, what was more concerning was Dr. Sylv's calcifying hand. A brief look of surprise washed over Chunji. It was as if she had grown a claw of dragon in place of her arm. However, he recovered and focused back on Davil.

Dr. Sylv plunged her calcified arm into Davil's torso-

And then the world became undone. In its place was an unfamiliar scenery that held a serene beauty. The moon reflected off the lake's surface, leading to Chunji's eyes landing on two prospecting figures. A person he had never seen before and a Davil Chunji had never seen before. It was clear what they were spectating. A close, intimate memory that was held in the heart of his peer. Davil's purest feelings at its origin.

Then, like a crashing wave, everything changed. Images of Davil's life streamed through and rushed past. The multitude of sparring partners, the endless grit to train, and the insurmountable mountain that could not be scaled. Chunji almost felt sympathy until the blood-soaked moment appeared. "Ah, you weren't so different after all." Chunji thought to himself. He had underestimated the Davil, who could only win through murder. Before Chunji could ponder further, reality came back into shape.

Chunji nodded and began providing nama and rupa into Davil's body. Specific essences were selected as donating the Great Lotus Serpent's essence would have proved detrimental to Davil's body. Sweat grew on Chunji as he strained himself to do so. His body felt like it was burning as he provided essence. Then, once they were done, Chunji backed off and took composed breaths.

"...I will be fine," Chunji stated after he regained himself. "Rest would be enough to remedy the exhaustion. If I face complications, I'll make an appointment with the receptionist." Then, just like he had entered, Chunji turned to leave the room. There wasn't a need to inform others of his plans.

Standing in front of Room S-120, he knocked on the door. If the room was busy, he'd summon Dayin to compile a message to Steeler. Regardless, he'd inform Steeler about the events transpiring.

"Davil's stable. Dr. Sylv has said that he only needs a week's rest to fully recover, but he's alright."

Huh, now that you mention it, that sums it up well.

I think Raja is just moving to the other end of the room and letting Dr. Sylv perform her operation.

EDIT: We should be good now!

It seemed the complexity that ailed Steeler was worsening based on what was overheard. That was concerning, but it seemed that the information shouldn't have been privy to his ears. Pretending not to hear it would be best, if an event related to this happened, he would at least used this tidbit for understanding.

Though the one that took priority was Davil first and foremost. Based on the looks on both doctors, this was not ordinary case as Chunji expected. Dr Kann in particular seemed stressed at the thought of treating it, but the overseer, Dr Sylv, would take his place in stead. "Understood," Chunji bowed with his head. Before he followed the overseer out of the room, Chloe spoke up.

It was truly an oddity that Chloe showed concern over Davil's situation rather than her own. Didn't they only know each other for two days? However, such behavior was not unusual based on the training at Professor Alto's class. "I will inform you through the Adapa about Davil's condition. If the Overseer permits, I will inform you on the step by step process on it." With that he turned he followed after the Overseer.

When he came in after Dr Sylv, the situation was tense as he had expected. Principal Raja loomed over Davil to what he presumed was she an attempt to cast a spell on to him. It didn't work judging on his facial features. Though with the Overseer here, that expression would most likely not change, but he'll be better.

Thankfully, what Otis had tried didn't turn out badly. Chunji walked up and took his side of the bed. "I will provide assistance. Please proceed with the instructions." If helping the Overseer would improve Davil's condition, then staying still wasn't an option.

Chunji, for a moment, stared at the rat boy in front of him. There was an odd air to Chunji as he stopped moving, his pupils dilating. Though he finally spoke, "Thank you." With directions to where Dr. Kann was, Chunji was about to head there to inform him until he felt a dangerous presence behind him.

Headmaster Raja was right behind him and was directly staring holes into Iraleth.

If Iraleth's zealous wrath was a forest fire, then Headmaster Raja was the sun, waiting to explode and consume the world. Little imagination needed to be done on why she was angry. An Umbralist attack on the Iris Record under her watch? Chunji felt a sense of preservation to head into room S-120 before being caught in the Headmaster's rage.

Quickly heading into the room, Chunji peaked in before fully opening the door. "My apologies for the interruption. This is Chunji Yi," Chunji said as he entered the room. "Dr. Kann, we've uncovered the source of Davil's plight. The remnants of the umbralist's blades were left inside Davil, along with a strange liquid currently encroaching on Davil's heart. I would implore you to hurry before Otis gets an idea on how to solve it."

Considering his facial expression, he was unfamiliar with the other face in the room, but it was either Dr Kann's coworker or superior. However, what caught his eye was Steeler's presence in the room. "Hello, Ms. Steeler." It was odd that two doctors were in her room, but Chunji decided he didn't need to know it. It was best not to know about circumstances beyond his concern.

Now, Ciara has to be worried about getting choked out by two people.

@Nanaya
So the special care room. Is Chunji able to peak inside to see if the Dr is in the middle of something?

"No you did not. You were quite concise, though it still does not answer my question." There was little else Chunji could do now. It seemed whatever Otis had planned, he wouldn't divulge it. Stepping back from Davil, he'd follow Otis's advice. "Then I will retrieve, Dr. Kann." Chunji gave Davil a glance before leaving the bedside.

It was clear that Otis did not appreciate his presence, nor did he respect him as a peer. The subtleties of social interaction were not lost on Chunji as he could tell from Otis's words and actions. Some part of Chunji wanted to retort, but there wasn't much a point. Otis's character had been profiled. There was no point of anymore interaction if this was the result.

Iraleth stomped away from Ciara's bed was a befuddling sight. Why was she at Ciara's bedside and what was that look on her face? A flash of Otis's words reminded him there wasn't a point in asking such a thing. Everyone had their own goals and desires, Chunji shouldn't be the one to question them. Ciara seemed to have finally slept into her unconscious, so perhaps that was something going right today.

Chunji followed Iraleth out of the ward and entered the lobby. The Paladin was off to elsewhere. Dr. Kann needed to be located. Chunji would walk up to the closest person and asked around for Dr. Kann. He'd tell them what he had discovered within Davil's body.

Iris Ascendis

I'll whip up a quick post.

Iris Ascendis

Should I post again?

I can probably make a short post for Chubj to leave and get Doctor Kann.
