The box suddenly open on its own and the Mysterious Red Cube inside jumped towards Leo's right palm. It was very fast that he didn't even have enough time to be able to think and dodge the incoming Red Cube.

After the Red Cube landed on Leo's palm, it immediately started digging itself to his skin. He didn't feel any pain though, but itchiness.

Leo started shaking his hand when he noticed that the Red Cube was getting embedded deeper in his right palm. He kept on trying to get it off, but the Red Cube was only inserting itself deeper into his right palm the more he shakes.

As seconds passes, the Red Cube was embedding itself deeper and deeper until it was nowhere to be found on Leo's right palm anymore. He thought that the problem was over, but he suddenly started feeling something weird in his hand.

At first, Leo only felt itchiness on his palm. But, as the minute passes, his hand began to heat up slowly. The heat wasn't really that hot from the very beginning. It was like when someone moving their finger fast to a candles flame. However, it just got hotter and hotter as time goes on, with no way of cooling down. The heat wasn't only felt towards his right palm, it was slowly spreading from his entire right hand until to his entire body.

Leo tried to run towards the bathroom to try and cool it the hotness down, but he was horrified when he realized that he was actually unable to move even a single step anymore.

At this moment, Leo was covered in sweat as he realized the direness of his situation. If he could turned back the time, he would surely not come any closer to the box, even a single millimeter.

However, it was too late to regret now. Soon, the heat finally covered Leo's entire body. He became so worn out trying to endure the heat. He was even struggling to keep on standing. His energy had slowly being depleted to the very bottom, and his mind and spirit had reached its very limit.

It was just so hot for Leo to endure any further.

Suddenly, Leo fell to the ground in pain. His view was slowing getting blurry, until his eyes finally closed. He became unconscious.

What will happen to him now?

What was that mysteriously Red Cube?

Was he going to die now?

Leo had too many unanswered question in his mind. It would be so depressing if he could not get any answer to those questions.

.....

Two hours later, Leo finally woke up from being unconscious. His body was aching all over to the point that it became hard for him to even make a slight movement.

Leo breathed a sigh of relief realizing that he wasn't dead. He quickly looked around to confirm whether he was still in his room or not.

Soon, Leo became relax as he saw his bed at his side, the still familiar floor, the mat and his rooms wooden door.

Quickly, Leo tried to move his body from the floor, but he realized soon after that moving his body was really hard, it was like he was inside a box with nails surrounding him. Every movement he makes would surely cause him to hit the nails around the box, hence causing pain all over his body.

It was really painful!

Sweat had even covered Leo's head just by trying to move his fingers.

Finally, being able to somewhat endure the pain, Leo tried to push his hand to try and stand up. However, he soon noticed that his head was actually not on the floor, but was on top of something soft. He tried gripping the unknown soft thing, to try and identify what it was. But, he really don't have any idea on what it was.

Leo was aware that he became unconscious on the floor, so he should be touching a floor instead and not something soft-like object. He can also not gripped a floor, so it must be a pillow, right? But, even if Butler Xiao had noticed him on the floor unconscious awhile ago and had then transfered him to his bed, he was still really familiar to how a pillow felt like. The softness of this object his current laying his head on was not akin to a pillow, it was more like a persons body.

Finally, Leo realized something as he tilt his head a little to the side. Just like what he had thought, it was indeed some part of a persons body, specifically the lap.

But who's lap, though?
