Chapter 27: CH 27

Even before Lucas, who was dumbfounded, could say anything, the doctor next to him began to stop Grand Duke Estin in a more dumbfounded voice.

“I know a little bit about Laminaicho, but you’re going to use that recovery agent……?”

“Did you not hear the kid say she was in pain?”

“It’s a high fever, but it’s not life-threatening, and after two days of being ill, she’ll wake up as if she was never sick. Using the recovery agent is a little …….”

“Is there anything more serious than the fact that she’s in pain?”

The doctor closed his mouth because he thought he had made a mistake due to the cold voice inversely proportional to the child’s fever.

The laminaicho recovery agent, which they had been investing for five years, was a super-recovery agent that could cure any serious disease and heal deeply engraved wounds quickly.

They understand how anxious he is because the child is sick, but it was still a matter to think about calmly.

‘It’s not just your voice that makes you so cold!’

Lucas was also upset that Mary was sick, and his heart was so hurt that he wanted to find the Kaisham that bit Mary and crush it.

But the Laminaicho recovery agent is really…… How hard it was to extract its essence!

There will be a large-scale reclamation project in the Grand Duchy soon, and the Grand Duke asked him to use the five bottles of recovery medicine in case of an accident.

Even the doctor said it’s too much…

After a long time, he wanted to call the Grand Duke ‘brother’ and ask him to think about it but his eyes were already determined.

Well… it’s his first time having a child this sick.

Why is this child so weak?

If it were the three older children, they would be self-healing to some extent with their own magic.

Lucas, who had been weakened for a while, shook his head from side to side again to organize his thoughts.

Still the recovery agent is too much.….

“Excuse me….”

As soon as Lucas tried to stop Grand Duke Estin even if he got himself hurt, Mary, who they thought was sleeping, turned her head and looked at Grand Duke Estin and Lucas.

She seemed to be trying to speak louder than before, but it was still a small voice like the gentle wind.

“I’m… I’m okay….”

They were all listening.

Looking at the child who uttered a word and turned her head again, Grand Duke Estin and Lucas thought the same thing.

What should I do with her?

Lucas, who was staring blankly at the child, turned around and said in a somewhat empty voice.

“I’ll bring the recovery agent….”

“……Yes.”

Lucas, who was walking along the hallway to the storage room was speechless as he went to get the recovery agent.

That’s some kind of recovery medicine.

He was busy with other tasks, but he was absorbed in studying herbal medicine, giving up his sleeping time because of the recovery agent.

Since it was the first business that Grand Duke Estin entrusted to him, he wanted to do better. Hestia even teased him because she couldn’t believe that he was working so hard.

… thinking about it, he thought it was right to use it at a time like this.

Mary is the weakest child in the mansion.

People who will participate in the reclamation project are participating because they are strong, and it is clear that their recovery will be faster.

With the accident that happened right now, it’s only right to use the agent for Mary!

After making a clear decision, his mind and steps became lighter.

Lucas hurried back to Mary’s room with the bottle of recovery agent. It was a very small bottle, so it was covered by Lucas’ palm. However, even this small amount was enough to have an effect.

“Shouldn’t she drink two bottles?”

The doctor, who knew Mary’s condition and the effect of the agent, knew that one is enough, but Grand Duke Estin’s eyebrows waved wildly when he saw the vial.

“This is enough.”

The doctor, who muttered in a lethargic voice, carefully spilled the medicine bottle into Mary’s mouth.

Like a lie, the medicine worked right away, and the rough breathing sound became more organized and made a gentle sound.

The child soon fell asleep with a relaxed expression. The three men looked at the child and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

It was a very long night.

***

“You stink!”

It was a very innocent voice that didn’t fit the story.

Looking at Seulbi, who covered her nose as if she had smelled something foul, I raised my arm and smelled myself.

No, I really don’t, but I felt like my body smelled bad.

“Even if my mom tells her to wash up, she never does.”

“Seulbi, you must have suffered a lot.”

I clenched my fists as I heard the children gossiping among themselves.

At the center was my cousin, Seulbi.

Your mom told me to wash only once in a while because it’s a waste of water.

“Where did that beggar come from? It’s annoying.”

“But why do you live together?”

“Yes, her parents are dead.”

My clenched fist shook.

I could feel my nails digging into my peeling.

“She doesn’t have parents who can teach her how to clean …… Ack!

I couldn’t take it any longer, so I ran and grabbed Seulbi’s hair, who was babbling.

Later, I was scolded by my aunt, and my uncle would quickly enter the master bedroom without stopping her, but I couldn’t stand them insulting my late parents and I learned well from my grandmother!

“Ha Sohee, I won’t let this go?”

“Hey, apologize! Apologize!”

I grabbed Seulbi’s hair and shook it with my trained forearms from helping my grandmother with her field work.

Yeah, I didn’t learn from my parents, I only learned how to solve things with my body!

What are you going to do?

“Apologize… Apologize…….”

“Miss! Miss!”

I felt someone shake me violently so I opened my eyes wide.

When I open my eyes, I see…… A strange ceiling?

And my arm stretching out towards the ceiling and holding the air.

“Why do you talk like this in your sleep?”

“Who… Bonita?”

For a moment, I almost asked who she was, but then I came to my senses.

I am Mary, the youngest daughter of the Grand Duke of Conler.

The person in front of me is Bonita, the one who takes care of me.

“Are you all right? I heard they gave you the recovery agent. Did it not fit your body?”

“Recovery…?”

No wonder my head was so clear and his body was light. I feel more refreshed than usual because I took the recovery agent.

“Yes, I’m really fine.”

Bonita’s eyes began to twinkle when I smiled brightly and replied that I was okay. Her eyes reminded me of what I had done.

I went into the lawn to get the ball, violating Bonita’s order to never enter the lawn.

I was sorry to see Bonita’s heartache.

“I’m sorry….”

“Ohmy, miss.”

When I carefully apologized, Bonita opened her arms and hugged me tightly.

Hugged in a warm embrace, I wanted to be spoiled, so I also raised my arm and put it around Bonita’s waist.

And kept muttering my apologies.

When I remembered Bonita’s face running towards me right before I fainted.… I felt even more sorry.

“Don’t do that again! Do you know how worried I was?”

“I’m so sorry, I’m really sorry…….”

“A lot of people were worried. The Grand Duke couldn’t even sleep a wink…….”

“……The Grand Duke?”

Grand Duke Estin?

When I tilted my head and asked, Bonita swallowed her saliva as if what she said was something unbelievable.

“He must have been so worried, because he rushed over and told them to use the recovery agent.”

“Recovery agent?”

“There are only five bottles in the house, but he used it right away because you said you’re in pain.”

Oh my god.

I’m already embarrassed to have caused an accident, but to drink something so precious?

How could I get bitten by a bug, even using such a recovery agent……!

I was ashamed of myself and covered my face with my hands.

Oh, Mary Conler, why did you do that?

“Don’t be so hard on yourself because you’re more precious than just one recovery agent.”

“Yes…….”

Bonita stroked my head and tried to comfort me, as she felt sorry for me.

However, despite the consolation I still felt bad, Bonita spoke in a brighter voice when she saw my shoulders drooping.

“There are still four more bottles left, you only use one.”

Even so, there are three more Conler besides me……?

But I felt even more sorry for Bonita, who tried to comfort me, even though she must have had a hard time because of me, so I just smiled brightly.

Yes…

I guess it’s okay to use it.

There are four bottles in the mansion, if they want more they can just get more.

After clearing my head. I took the porridge Bonita brought.

I ate more porridge than usual, maybe it’s the effect of the recovery agent.

Bonita was delighted and said I would be able to eat as usual in the evening.

She also said she’d give cookies that I wasn’t able to eat because I got sick…… I blamed myself again.

Do you want to get sick again after making people suffer like this? I’ll never get sick from now on.
