To those who read the previous version of chapter 5, id like to apologize for the misunderstanding. I'm still getting used to this website and i assure you that this will not happen again. Thank you.
Yuuri followed closely behind the stretcher carrying the unconscious Conrad away. Concern was etched on his face. When they got to the stairway, Yuuri tried to follow but Josak stopped him.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty." Josak reassured. "He's only been getting a couple hours of sleep for the last couple of days. He'll be fine once he rests." Yuuri was a bit less convinced of such. Conrad was a careful guy. He usually made sure he was healthy and strong so that he could do his job better.
"Josak?"
"Yes, Your Majesty?"
"Do you know why Conrad's been so tired lately?" Yuuri asked looking up at the taller man. Josak flinched.
"You do know, don't you?" Wolfram shouted. Yuuri had actually forgotten about him since he hadn't spoken for the last couple of minutes. The fact he was silent this long was amazing by itself. "I order you to tell us, Josak." Josak looked between the two and scratched the back of his neck.
"I'm really sorry, Your Majesty. I wish I could but I can't." Josak said to Yuuri. Yuuri was pretty sure Wolfram was pissed about that since heat started to build beside him. The only reason the place wasn't up in flames at the moment, Yuuri guessed, was probably because Yuuri would have died in such an inferno.
"And why not?" Wolfram said before Yuuri could even open his mouth. Usually one would be mad at another for talking for them but if they were going to say the same thing, why complain. "Yuuri is your king and if he asks you a question, you are to answer it immediately!" Yuuri would have complained about the phrasing of that last comment but concern for Conrad.
"I'm sorry, My Lord, but I promised the captain I wouldn't tell." The man said looking away. Yuuri could tell by the look on his face that he wasn't going to say anymore. Wolfram, on the other hand, obviously had a lot more to say.
"My brother is lying in bed because of exhaustion and you won't even tell us why that is?"Wolfram shouted before Yuuri could stop him. He pulled out his sword and pointed it to Josak's throat. The man didn't even flinch. "If you don't tell us now, I will cut you down! How dare you-" Wolfram was lifted off his feet by the sudden apearence of his eldest brother, Gwendal.
