The Medallion

When he heard that, Gilbert sighed and relaxed his shoulders. Valeria wore a look of surprise on her face. She couldn't figure out how Rocky was unharmed after the explosion of the wooden man.

"What brought you here, sir?" Rocky greeted Gilbert as if nothing had happened.

"I heard that you and Valeria were fighting so I had to come and stop you. What happened?" Gilbert asked, shooting Rocky a serious look.

Rocky looked at Valeria and smiled faintly. "It wasn't over anything serious. We were just fighting for fun!"

A subtle look of confusion washed over Valeria's face. She had expected Rocky to tell the truth to Gilbert. She had thought she would be punished for attacking him so viciously. What she hadn't seen coming was Rocky deliberately defending her.

A small amount of red tinged Gilbert's cheeks. "For fun? Why would you do that here? You could have destroyed my mansion!"

"Please don't be angry. It really was all in good fun. Miss Valeria accidentally exerted too much power, but that showed me her true strength. It's a good thing!"

Although Gilbert was still unhappy and knew that Rocky was defending Valeria, he would avoid asking further questions and causing more trouble.

"Guards, escort Miss Valeria back to the Fragrance Palace!" Gilbert ordered, pointing into the distance.
