My Villains Episode 102
26. fever(3)
Even the next day, Ellen showed no signs of improvement..
No, it got worse. My whole body was boiling, and I couldn't even drink water..
“I guess we won't be able to go. sorry.”
Haengsu wiped his face with an embarrassed expression..
“But Sir Phoenics. What is a contract?.”
“I will give you a penalty. Would thirty gold coins be enough??”
Haengsu sighed repeatedly in response to my question..
“I will wait for a day or two. Won’t Ellen’s condition also improve by then??”
I can clearly guess how Haengsu feels..
We haven't even left the Savon region yet, but it would be too big of a risk for the mercenaries to decrease, so they probably want to take us with them somehow..
“……Is it okay though??”
“yes. Well, it can't be helped, right?.”
They say things like that, but inside they're boiling over..
He signed a contract saying he was a mercenary, but since he was a knight, he had to treat him like a master. At the same time, he tried to hide his true identity vaguely, and told him that he was not able to return after four days of setting off on the road.…….
Wow, there is absolutely no truth to this..
“Thank you for your consideration. Instead, since I've caused you trouble, I won't accept the balance..”
“No, no. You don't have to..”
After much debate, it was decided that only half of the balance would be paid..
Well, I think it ended on a good note. Should I say I'm glad.
As the minister left, Wu Tequai, who was sitting on a pile of firewood and eating an apple, got up..
“I'm going to the field.”
“field? why?”
“Looking for a pool to cool off.”
“Do you even know how to use herbs??”
Instead of answering, Ute Kwai let out a huff and let out a fart. Well, he's lived in the tribe his whole life, so he knows that much..
“Would you like to go together??”
“I have to protect Ellen. Come back.”
After catching a glimpse of Ute Kwai's back, he entered the room..
The place we were staying was the village chief's house. To be exact, it's the house of Marum, who was dispatched by the lord, but that's it..
Anyway, the house was pretty nice. It was the only one in the village with roof tiles, had a large yard, and had the highest fence..
There was a separate small barn, so there was no sign of livestock being brought into the room, and there was a fireplace so it was easy to heat the room..
“Ugh huh ”
Ellen, who was asleep, made constant groaning noises. While I was wiping his face with a wet cloth, I suddenly wrapped my arms around his neck and grabbed him..
Exciting, Exciting.
I can feel the pulsation through my palm. I gathered my blood and exerted control towards Ellen's body..
18The level is reached and 1 free point is given to magic power. Perhaps because of that, my blood seems to have become a little stronger and more flexible..
As if tentacles or antennae had been extended, Ellen's senses expanded through her blood vessels. It didn't take long for an image of a small body to appear in my mind..
I concentrated my mind and looked inside Ellen's body, but... hmm, I don't know. Lots of x-rays
What happens if you get an MRI? The person who sees it has no knowledge whatsoever..
Compared to my body, it didn't seem that different - except that it was much smaller, thinner, and softer..
“ Ugh.”
I walked over to the fireplace and put in some firewood. It was already too hot in the room to be warm, but I couldn't feel relieved unless I did something..
At that time, I heard bullshit from somewhere..
Wow! Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
Why do dogs bark? I listened carefully, and in addition to the crying, I also heard a strange noise..
That pole, splash, that pole.
A very faint sound that could not have been detected if it were not for sensitive hearing. It felt like something was splashing in the water and scratching the tree..
I tried to ignore it because the dogs were hunting, but once the sound started to get on my nerves, it tickled my ears to no end..
“••••••IC.”
In the end, I took the Hrunting and left the room..
The place where the sound was coming from was the backyard. The village chief's house was located at the corner of the village, so the backyard was surrounded by a wooden fence instead of a fence..
Suddenly, the sound of the dog barking outside the fence quiets down. As I gently kick the wooden fence, I hear a screeching sound and a figure running away..
That thing, splash, that thing.
Meanwhile, the sound continued. It was at the base of the wooden fence..
I squatted down out of curiosity and then burst into laughter..
“••••♦•What is this??”
There was some kind of small animal struggling there..
Digged dirt floor, cloudy standing water, rotten fallen pieces of wood and small holes... … . It looks like the animal that was being chased by dogs escaped and got stuck at the base of the tree..
“what are you doing here?”
I squatted down and took a closer look, and found out that it was none other than a pig. A baby wild boar the size of my palm, with cute patterns carved into its brown fur..
When I reached out and touched his leg, he screamed..
sesame liquid, sesame liquid!
“Wow, what a surprise..”
The guy who had been struggling up until now without making a single sound lights up as if he is startled when I touch him..
And then it bites my hand, but unlike how it screams, its mouth has no strength..
“Just stay still, dude..”
I used so much force with my hand that I broke the piece of wood holding his leg. And quickly took my hand away.
Sesame liquid, persimmon.
The pig, which had been struggling and crying, seemed confused when my hand disappeared and staggered for a moment..
“What are you blanking on? go.
I said, pushing the guy's butt..
“People are more dangerous than dogs. If you stay in here you'll die.”
The pig stood still for a moment and shook itself off..
Then he looked up at me and staggered toward the hole. Then, it suddenly collapsed..
“what?”
I tried touching it with my finger, but there was no movement. I don't think it's dead…….
w O ugh” — 丁g •
The fur is clearly wet, but the body is hot like a fireball..
……IC. I was going to just leave it, but for no reason I thought of Ellen and couldn't stop walking..
“ Ugh.”
I held the baby boar in my arms and headed inside the house..
That evening, Ellen's fever reached its peak..
Utequai picked some herbs and made a thick porridge, but Ellen couldn't even come to her senses, let alone eat it..
I asked the village elders for help, but they just shook their heads..
All I could do was pray that Ellen would overcome her illness..
The blonde girl tried to hide her uncomfortable expression..
‘I can't believe you're following me this late at night. 'You're such a rude little farmer.' Ellen did not bother to vent the discomfort that was welling up in her heart..
The girl did not want to show her emotions to the woman in front of her. Because I didn’t think he was that great of an opponent..
“The night breeze is cool.”
Ellen looked the woman up and down without saying a word..
Red hair roughly tied and hanging on one side, eyes reminiscent of a fox and lips full of lust, needlessly large breasts, an exaggeratedly tight waist, and a vulgar skirt open to reveal bulging buttocks and calves..
The girl didn't like everything about the farm..
Ellen slowly swam on the ground and suddenly opened her mouth..
“Where are you going??”
“Let's go to the dock. Neither Ellen nor I will be able to see the sea for a while..”
“••••♦•you also?”
As a question appeared in her blue eyes, the red-haired beauty smiled shyly..
“Well, the weather doesn't feel like summer. “This time last year, it was so hot that we had to keep the windows open even at night.” At Daria's words, Ellen just frowned quietly and made no reply..
Occasionally, night patrols would appear, but when they saw Ellen, they would pass by without saying a word. This is because it was thought that there would be no benefit in clashing with the 'Fire Witch', who is famous for her fierce nature..
As we passed through the busy street organizing the stalls and reached the dock, my son-in-law began to become quiet. The gentle waves, cool breeze, and the occasional sound of seabirds were extremely peaceful..
Perhaps because of the atmosphere, the two guards guarding the dock were sound asleep..
They didn't doze while standing, but just sat spread out and snored. Even if they didn't blame the weather, they didn't seem to be very conscientious soldiers..
The girl and the woman walked along the dock past the sleeping soldiers..
In the distance, a large fire was burning brightly in a temporary lighthouse..
With that light as the boundary, the patrollers' torches flickered below, and above, the Milky Way flowed around the waning old moon..
It was not too bright or too dark, so it was just the right lighting to enjoy the sea at night..
“It's been a while since I've been here.”
“I don't usually come this far. I'm a little scared to come alone.”
Ellen quietly crossed her arms. Daria smiled when she saw that..
“About two weeks ago? There was a time when I came out at night begging for poi. At that time, the moon was so bright that I could see the horizon..”
“……I called you to say that.?”
Ellen continued speaking with a face as cold as ice..
“You kept talking about things related to Poi and that you would regret it if you didn't follow along. Is that all you wanted to say? I wanted to show off that I had seduced Poi with that vulgar body.?”
“……It's not like that..”
Daria, with her mouth stiff, quietly chose her words..
“I just wanted to tell you in advance..”
“ what?”
“I'm going to follow Poi..”
“……What on earth are you following?.”
“Going on a boat is a lie.?”
“what?”
“Foy has no idea what the West is like. I'm not even interested. I said out of habit that I had to go to Raven's Cliff with Ellen..”
Daria took Ellen's silence as positive and spoke with determination..
“I'm going to my uncle in Longville..
with poi.”
The girl's body swayed a little. Daria continued speaking with her hands clasped together..
“I know very well that Foy, Ellen, and Hatanka are not ordinary people, and that I will be a burden..”
In the hands held together, the cherry blossom ring caught my eye..
“Well, then.”
“but. I want to be by Poi’s side just a little longer. If I let you go like this without doing anything, I think I'll regret it for the rest of my life..”
Feeling nauseous for some reason, Ellen couldn't say anything..
“I want to wait and believe that it will come back someday, but I'm not that patient..”
Ellen swallowed the rising anger and opened her mouth with difficulty..
“……Longville, Longville is far. very.”
“yes, i know.”
“By the way, *sigh* you want to go together? Anyone, anyone?”
“I'm thinking of talking to Foy tonight..”
“Well, *sigh* what?”
“I thought about it for a long time, but I'm going to confess honestly. I'm just trying to say that I want to follow along..”
“……No way, no way.”
“I know very well what Ellen thinks of Poi. That's why I'm telling you first. I think that's polite.”
Light pink lips trembled.
“Ha, don't act like you know everything or act like you're being considerate. You, you don't know anything. Poi is,”
“Poi loves me.”
“bullshit.”
“Ellen, you know. Poi is Ellen.,”
“Bullshit! Dirty whore dare not know the state system.”
Unlike the mouth spitting out harsh words, the big eyes were pouring out tears..
Ellen was so ashamed and angry that she could not bear the fact that she was crying..
The sympathy in Daria's eyes seemed like that of a victor, and she felt like she was going to vomit right now..
“sorry. I didn't mean to do this. I just want to move forward together……
Ellen took a deep breath and closed her eyes. Daria's voice fades away, the night wind fades.
meditation.
The practice that the girl has been practicing for over 10 years is a long-standing habit..
In an instant, I sank inward. At the bottom, I quietly asked myself.
‘Calm down and take a breather. Why are you so angry??’
‘There's no need for this. you are a wizard Be reasonable. Think carefully about what you want.’
‘Why do you hate that woman so much? You're not worth it.’
The cloudiness clears. The mind awakens. Find answers to questions.
‘I was angry because I thought Poi would really love that girl and not me..’
‘I just hope she breaks up with Poi. I don't think I can bear the two of you together any longer..’
‘Because you make me suffer. Whenever he gets the chance, he teases me. But, yeah. She's not worth this.’
The process of asking and answering oneself is repeated dozens of times in a split second..
“……Ellen? Ellen!”
“Phew.”
Taking a deep breath, the girl opened her eyes..
No more tears, no more gasping for breath, no more nausea..
Ellen, strangely calm, slowly raised her head..
“that's right. i hate you.”
“••••♦•yes?”
The girl raised her head and looked up at the woman. Sapphire-like eyes were dyed in the darkness of the night..
“I hate it when you smile next to Poi, when Poi smiles at you, when you two secretly meet each other every night and have sex, I hate it so much..”
“That's Ellen.,”
“know. I have no right to interfere in the affairs between the two. Still, it's true that it's painful.”
Daria took a step backwards without realizing it. Then, suddenly, I saw the girl and opened my mouth..
“Ellen, now……
The girl who was swimming in the sky was suddenly standing tall on the dock. Then, slowly, very carefully, I took one step at a time..
“I waited and waited for the day I could leave the city..”
I stumbled a little on my second step. But the cow soon regained its balance.
The woman walked again and spread her right hand..
“By the way, I will follow you?”
“Just a moment, Ellen..”
On the third step, the girl whispered something in a low, fast tone. A cold wind blew, and something shiny was held in white hands..
Ellen said with an expressionless face..
“That won't work. I'm going to die.”
“Wait a minute, Ellen, no way.,”
“sorry.”
The ice pick flew out like a flash..
with a plop.
“……Okay. What does this mean??”
The guard woke up, rubbing his eyes at the loud sound of water, and yawned. Then he woke up the young soldier by tapping him with his spear..
“Uh hmm.”
“Hey, stop sleeping and go take a spin..”
“……what's going on?”
“I just heard something. hurry.”
The young soldier, pushed by the old man's pole, dragged his feet and searched the dock with a torch..
My half-closed eyes peered into the pitch-black darkness, but I found no trace..
“There was nothing.”
“okay? Are you mistaken??”
The wind blew over the dock where silence was once again found..
It was a peaceful night.
