"Hey...are you awake?" I attempted to wake up Carl who almost got stabbed by the Three Dark Sisters and Geryon for the second time.

"When Carl woke up from the bed that I arranged for him, he looked terrified. That's because of that traumatic experience...and I forgot to introduce myself to him.*

"It's okay, you're with me now. You can call me "Mr.K" for short." I smiled at him, reassuring him that everything will be fine, and Geryon won't dare to invade this base of mine.

*I ruffled his soft hair, then looked at his eyepatch covering his left eye."
