Adrian moved his arms, stretched his legs, and even tried a few light exercises.
'I don't feel anything wrong.'
He felt as though he had returned to the same condition as before the fight. He noticed that even the torn parts of his clothes had been restored.

"It seems that this will be the first and last time we will ever meet. Taking care of you for the past month and talking with you—those are certainly going to be fond memories for me. I hope that'll be the case for you as well, child."

Adrian didn't reply and instead continued checking himself. The vampire didn't seem to have recovered his sword while saving him from the blast.
