[Episode 41]
The sharp scent of alcohol passed by the tip of my nose. It was strange to feel that it smelled like a hospital.
“When does that happen? Am I going to become a vegetative person like this?”
I felt like I was being blown away by the familiar voice. But the eyes don’t open.
The whole place is pitch black and the memory feels far away, but I don’t know why this voice is so vivid.
“The patient’s physical condition is now perfectly normal. It’s hard to believe that such a big accident happened… Now it seems to be in a very deep sleep state, but since there have been few reports like this in the academic world… EEG tests also show… deep REM sleep… like a long one. Keep dreaming…”
The voice cut off intermittently.
Whose story are you talking about? accident? it’s not my story ‘Cause I just slept
I had doubts, but I stopped thinking because I didn’t want to think about anything.
“…From the time I was born until now, there hasn’t been anything scary about it. It’s pathetic. If I went out to live alone, I should have lived well. Tsk… how long does this state of affairs last?”
“Yes, I’m sorry… I’m seeing this symptom for the first time in my life… I think I just need to wake it up, but it doesn’t respond to any stimulation. It’s like he doesn’t want to wake up…”
“Hey doctor. Didn’t you put a lot of money down your back hole? Then, save yourself from unnecessary noise. If you lose money like this, I’ll dig up all of your sister’s graves.”
“Don’t get excited ■■ Ah. my sister is a cockroach I’m still alive like this, so I’ll wake up soon. I was such an obstinate person, but I won’t die like this.”
I didn’t even want to listen to the eerie, familiar malice. The thought sank lower and lower.
‘I want to sleep more.’
didn’t want to break
“…Irin.”
I don’t want to wake up from my dream
“uh? Hey, didn’t you move your fingers just now?”
“…Eirin.”
Two voices seemed to overlap in the air.
“Eirin!”
I slowly opened my eyes at that clear call.
The first thing I saw was Callan Etam, a red-haired boy in a white coat.
“woke up.”
“Get up because my brother calls me that. Why do you keep waking me up when I’m sleeping?”
The next to appear was Silian Etam, a boy with black hair who was a little shorter than Calan Etam.
The corners of his mouth were completely torn.
‘You’re back.’
As soon as they laughed, the two boys opened their eyes wide, then turned their faces red and turned their heads away.
Then I covered my mouth and slowly turned my head again.
“You don’t laugh like that.”
I was terrified by Callan Etham’s words. What did I say wrong?
Kalan’s expression hardened, and she shook her head hastily.
“No… I told you not to laugh elsewhere… It’s so cute… I felt like throwing Sillian away.”
“…what does that feel like? brother.”
“There is something like that.”
“I was just in the mood to throw you out the window, too.”
“what? How disrespectful to you…”
The two boys started grumbling in front of their eyes.
It was as if his head was blank and he had slept for a long time.
I can’t remember exactly what I dreamed, but the fast beating of my heart makes me anxious.
“Aren’t you hurt anywhere? Who didn’t fight outside? I heard some guys tried to sell you into slavery… Then why did you leave without saying anything…”
Kalan bent over and raised her chin on the bed, nagging in a high-pitched voice.
The corners of his mouth soared to the sky at all the worries and bruises that lined up.
“Worry about me…?”
Who ever cared about me like this?
There was nothing in the past or present life.
“of course! A lot of small things like this are down and left the house, won’t you do it? Even if you leave the house, if you had told me in advance, I would have gotten you a place to live in secret…”
“It would be cleaner if you told me rather than hyung. My brother has a long tail.”
“If I leave it to Heng, it will take another year to get a house?”
Callan snorted and ignored Silian. The corners of his mouth naturally loosened.
“Anyway, I’m glad you’re okay. Even if you hate your father, be sure to talk to me next time and leave. My me is still… Keuhum. My brother… I have the ability to take care of you alone.”
Callan raised her fingernails and scratched her cheek, blushing.
“Um…”
“Because I can help too.”
“Thank you.”
I smiled wide as I said that. My chest tickled.
“Because we are a family.”
“family?”
“Yeah, my father said he would put you on the family register soon.”
Callan lightly gripped my hand.
“Please take good care of me, Erin.”
“huh. Me too…”
“It’ll be difficult if I take it out too.”
Silian suddenly raised her head.
We looked at each other and ended up laughing. I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve laughed like this, but it felt good.
“Oh and I mean. The medicine that kills those bugs…? I made it because you asked me to make it… Why is this?”
Oh right.
There were repellents!
The fact that Callan had already made it meant that a little bit of time had passed.
‘Richard and Lucillion…’
My head was pounding already.
Not only that, but the most urgent were Enosh and Duke Mirel.
“How much do I pay for coming here?”
“It’s a week. I was surprised to find out you didn’t wake up.”
It’s really a big deal.
“Is that… everything?”
“Yeah, I did everything you said. Five days ago, someone from the imperial family came and told me to give them some medicine, so I gave it to them first…”
Callan didn’t understand why he had to do this the whole time he was talking.
Even so, I was a little surprised that he only believed in my letter and did it.
“Did you… do everything…?”
“Yeah, because my father told me to do it… and you said it.”
Kalan Etam grinned as she sat under the bed and rested her chin on the mattress.
“You helped my father with fruits we didn’t even know existed. So again, I thought you must know something we don’t know.”
“…huh.”
I was about to ask if it was weird, but I kept my mouth shut.
Even if the answer came out that it was yes, even if the answer came out, it didn’t seem like I would be comfortable.
“Recently, a strange disease is circulating among the capital’s aristocrats. I heard there were cases where he suddenly had a high fever, ran amok like a maniac, or bit people…”
“Yeah.”
“Everyone who took the medicine you told me about got better. It seems that some people have gone crazy because the treatment was late…”
“Harabuji…?”
“The head of household also gave me medicine when the fever started to rise.”
It was a little strange that the suspicious duke ate it obediently.
“I heard that you came back and came to see you, but my father and I fought a lot in front of this.”
Callan Etham added with a chuckle. It was clear that they would have fought fiercely.
“Aren’t you angry with Harabuji…?”
“Um…”
Callan Etham hesitated to answer.
My heart was pounding.
‘As expected, he must have been very angry.’
He didn’t even answer and disappeared like that, then showed up brazenly, which made me angry.
“Because the head of the family is always angry… I don’t know about that.”
Callan Etam said with a serious face.
“Ah…”
That’s it again.
“Still, he found you quite a bit. It was the head of the family who asked my father to go to the underground auction.”
“Eh? really? Didn’t Kylo tell you?”
“Hyung hyung, except when you study, do you wear your hair as a decoration? Whose right hand is Kylo?”
“That’s right, the head of the household… ah… the head of the family ordered it, so it moved!”
“That’s it. Due to the family head’s personality, he probably wouldn’t have said it openly, but… Kylo wouldn’t move without the will of the head family.”
In fact, Kylo was a loyalist among loyalists even in [Adopt. Yang. Gak]. A loyalist who never gives in to anything.
“They say it’s the medicine you gave me, so you take it while grumbling?”
“just?”
“Yeah, everything that happens in the family is bound to go to the ears of the head of the family… You probably heard about how you helped my father.”
I nodded slightly.
“Ah, come to think of it, I made a berserk inhibitor with the red fruit you told me about.”
Callan Etam said proudly with a grin.
