226 – Discovery #6

I felt embarrassed for being exposed like this.

So I asked to change the topic.

“Do nymphs or imps visit often?”

“They do come by. They help me out with things and sometimes eat the excess candies I get from the men around here.”

‘I see.‘

Now that I looked around, there were traces of laces, frills, sewing tools, and completed Marumaru dolls scattered about, things that girls would likely enjoy.

Seemed like she was getting along well with the imps.

It was good to see subordinates socializing with each other.

“I’m glad you’re doing well, but it must be a bit boring to be staying in the infirmary like this when everyone else is enjoying the festival.”

“It’s fine, I’ll change soon. More than that, Theo-nim, your complexion looks much better. You seem to have changed a lot as well.”

“Me?”

“Normally, you wouldn’t even consider touching tea offered by others.”

“Well….”

It was because I now trusted Kalira. However, it was a bit embarrassing to say it out loud. As I remained silent, Kalira added a few more words.

“You’re unrecognizable from when we first met. Seeing Theo-nim now, no one will believe that you are the same Demon Monk Theo.”

So, did that mean that I no longer looked like the Demon Monk Theo that was in my nickname?

Ding-.

Just then, a bell rang from somewhere.

“The results are ready. Excuse me for a moment.”

Seizing the opportunity while Kalira stepped away, I was lost in thought for a moment. Had I actually changed?

Certainly, the fierce Theo dominating the Angmar court and the current me were very different people.

And this was actually closer to my original personality. Just a normal person, laughing, panicking, working hard and then relaxing.

I came to Ark to change Aira.

In fact, I loosened up just as much as she was. It was probably because I was feeling more relaxed now that I’d shed the cloak of the court and politics.

After a few minutes with these thoughts in mind, Kalira returned carrying a chart in her hand and hummed softly.

“Um-, you are very healthy with no other problems. Your blood sugar level is a little high, but it’s a characteristic of nymphs, so that’s fine.”

“Okay.”

“You’re all good, you’re perfectly healthy. I guess this was the problem.”

Being healthy could lead to problems? I was puzzled by what Kalira meant, but it didn’t take long for me to understand.

“Because I was healthy, my metabolism was active and my hair turned red faster than expected-. Is that the gist of it?”

“As expected, you catch on quick. Initially, there were discrepancies in your physique and magic levels, but as you can see from this chart, the compatibility rate is now at 99%-.”

Kalira explained as she showed me the results.

As I mentioned before, I lacked knowledge in medicine, so I could only grasp the general idea that my body had become healthier than before.

“Your physical and spiritual wavelengths that were once twisted are also finding their way back to their proper places. It’s not easy for them to naturally return. Perhaps the rapid metabolic increase is due to this.”

Still, as I listened to Kalira’s explanation, something came to mind. Twisted physical and spiritual wavelengths…

I said.

“I did drink a burnt talisman wine from Miss Narmi Draco. Is there any chance that it is because of that?”

“Um, I’d have to examine the ingredients to find out, but the Draco Family is unrivaled when it comes to dealing with spirits and souls, so…, yes, I’d say there’s a good chance.”

‘I see.’

So, it was because of the potion Narmi gave me last time that my hair turned red fast. Indeed, since then, my body had become excessively light.

It was good that I’d become healthier, but what a terrible penalty.that came along

“Speaking of the Draco Family, that reminds me. Lady Elga Lioness came to see me earlier.”

“Miss Elga?”

“I prescribed her some medication. She seemed somewhat tense and anxious.”

Elga came here? Didn’t she say she didn’t have time because she had to meet the messenger from her family? Did she stop by for a moment?

Suddenly, I became curious about what Elga was doing.

A luxurious and magnificent carriage adorned with embroidery and gilding in the shape of a lion, traveled through the streets of Gracia, the city of the church.

It carried a lion’s flag.

The cultured residents of Gracia, knowing what this symbolized, made way for the carriage amidst the bustling festival streets.

And riding in that carriage was the eldest daughter, the inheritor of the Lion Heart King’s weapon, Crusher.

She remained unmoved in the bumps, staring out the window, until she finally broke the long silence and asked.

“Are you sure?”

Then Rowan, the old and experienced steward of the Lioness Family, adjusted his monocle.

“I am certain. As you instructed, I have thoroughly investigated all those around. Everything is documented here. You can check it out.”

Seueuk-.

Rowan extended a bundle of paper towards his Young Lady. Taking it, Elga glanced at the contents before inquiring.

“Who were involved in this?”

“Rest assured, Young Lady, I have sent them all to a quiet place, the Lioness’ way. Rather, it was surprising. There’re two, the prophet Theo Gospel─”

“Shh-. Rowan, be careful with your words.”

At his Lady’s words, the old steward fell silent.

Clip-clop, clip-clop…

Only the noisy clatter of hooves and wheels resounded in the carriage.
