Chapter 18's
...***...
And just that, three days had passed since then.
For three days, Evan took a sword class and left the room before I even woke up, and entered only after I fell asleep. I must say that I rarely see his face.
On the surface, nothing had changed, but strangely, his expression darkened. So, I was determined to have a proper conversation with him tonight.
"Hello."
A young woman with drooping red hair came to my room and greeted me cheerfully.
“I'm Serena Morristo. I will be a doctor for Little Miss's daily condition starting today.”
"We're gonna make an appointment with the doctor."
“My Alias is Serena Morristo. Then, you'll be able to figure it out right after you see my name. ”
Sven. You're a good worker.
“Thank you, Serena.”
Perhaps because of how it works, Lisa also did not catch up. Evan came out for sword practice every day, so only Serena and I were in the room.
Serena clung to me and laughed and said in a low voice.
“The guild leader asked me specifically. I heard you're a VIP customer, so I have to take care of you.”
Sure oes. How much money did I spend there?
"Is Serena a real doctor?"
"No."
Serena blinked proudly.
“I don't know much about drugs. I have seen some simple books by cramming.”
"But how did you get through the interview?"
"Duke doesn't know much about medicine .. And I passed the prestigious medical academy diploma, license, and a mountain of recommendations."
"Gosh my god."
"Of course, it's all fake."
"W-is that okay?"
"It's not uncommon for our guild leader to move this far, but I really don't think Miss Laria will be able to help me."
Not that she likes me, but she must have liked the answer I gave her last time. If he reads the board, he will be curious about Duke Icard's situation, but he instead wants to make good use of me.
"So, what should I do, Miss Laria?"
At the same time, Serena asked in a cute way with her green eyes.
"Duke will keep asking about my condition."
“Yeah, that's right.” Serena answered seriously.
“For the time being, there is a condition that is unknown to anyone about the condition of Miss Laria.”
It was a reasonable condition because I had to be on a deadline that nobody knew about.
“She said she would open my throat if the rumor spread. Oh, I'm afraid..it doesn't sound like a joke at all.”.
"I'm sure he's not kidding."
"What?"
"The joke is more frightening."
"…So so."
Serena sighed and continued.
“And he said, “Don't bother telling him, but go to him regularly and report to me about his condition”.”
Everything was as I expected.
“You cannot give Duke Icard your heart easily ..”
In the end, Duke Icard used a doctor's letter to watch over me, rather than cure my illness.
"Oh, he still asked me to check on Miss Laria and give the result."
"Maybe it's the last interview."
I smiled hand in hand. "Go and tell them that I have a rare disease called 'Garbic lung disease, ' and I'll be out of this world in six or seven years because of complications."
"What?"
“It is difficult to use any medical term, but I will try my best. Although adding it will not be easy.”
"Oh, using such a big lie?"
“He won't be surprised. And be sure to tell me what his reaction is. ”
I think the response Duke expected was, 'Don't try to fix it, just report the status.'
"But isn't Miss Laria sick?" Serena tilted her head and asked.
"Hmm?"
“If you are sick, there is no way you can buy a title with a loan name, so..”.
“It's complicated, but you will get used to it. Don't be surprised if I occasionally cough and vomit.”
“Then, I really have nothing to do here, right? All I have to do is pretend to try. ”
"Yes." Yeah."
Serena clapped her hands as if she really liked it.
“It's a very convenient mission.”
She smiled and pulled her hair back.
“So, I'm sure I can establish a relationship here, and I see a lot of people who look pretty good.”
“If you want.”
I replied gently but gave a slight nervous expression as that was not what I expected.
“My hobby is dating.”
"Oh so."
I realized that she was quite a sensual beauty. Her clothes were colorful enough to match the large features of her body.
“If you have a man you like, please tell me secretly. I'll help you with the secret meeting. ”
“M-sorry?”
“That's my area of expertise. This is not medicine, this is a secret meeting. Leave it to me." Serena blinked her eyes.
No, no matter how cunning you are, I never thought you would add this character.
“A-I'm married..”
“That's a lie, isn't it?”
Serena spoke calmly.
“Studies show that nobles who have relationships will cheat on each other. That's what ninety-nine percent of social circles say.”
Yes ... The original story, on the one hand, is unfortunate. Evan is not a good husband, but Elanie is still married.
'It's messy. What kind of person is the author?'
The author's pen name is Devil Cat.
No matter how hard I thought about it, it must have been a bit strange, it was very unlikely for a funny questioner name.
Of course, no reader criticizes Elanie because Evan is such a side character, which is not good for her. And such a phenomenon would most likely occur frequently because divorce was impossible under Imperial law.
It must be remembered that this is a completely different world, not a modern society that I lived in my past life. So, affairs were different from my common sense, although my parents would get me married as much as I didn't want to.
“You are always welcome if you have any questions about men. I am a professional in such topics.”
Serena smiled confidently at me.
Sven... You have the right person for the job, right?
After all, I could not move freely, so I felt comfortable in many ways only when I could control the people from the Vestian Information Union.
"Hey, Serena."
"Yes, please."
"I have a message for Sven." I said it like a punch.
“Last time I walked around town, I smelled something burning in the building behind the cafe.”
"What's? Burning scent? Behind the cafe?”
Serena's expression became serious.
"Yes. Tell him he better take a good look. ”
"Oh yeah!"
“Because we have a good relationship, I'm afraid something bad will happen.” I made a gentle expression and said softly.
This is a story about Seymour and Sven.
It's also an anecdote between Seymour and Sven, but it should be fine if I borrow it for a while.
“You could have let it go, but it never hurts to be careful. As you can see, I'm not free from destiny, so each of you is worth it.”
“Yes pardon ..” Serena gave me a slightly touched look.
Then, it was time for him to smile bashfully and pull off a decisive blow.
"So, that means Sven and I are precious to you."
Excuse me, can you put up some text? 'Laria (fourteen), sent from another world, her acting hero,' confirmed the author.
As expected, Serena replied seriously, holding my hand.
“Yeah... thank you very much for your concern.”.
Sven's mother lives in the building behind the cafe. And downstairs, a strange witch who was infatuated with experimentation recently moved in. Therefore, Serena deserved to make an unusual expression.
In fact, in the original work, a building actually exploded because of the witch.
Sven, who lost his mother because of it, is described as languid for a while.
'Maybe Seymour's going to Sven now.'
So, Seymour, who was related to Sven to buy Hanua land, suffered a little. But now Seymour will find it easy to buy land without any problems.
'This is. well, I didn't mean it, but this would be good for Seymour.'
He felt bad because he looked like he shared some of Seymour's wealth, but he paid off his debt neatly.
Basically, it was true to give a warning because it was to save someone, but also to show off a little.
"You'll immediately think of me as a benefactor."
If so, I will do my best even if I have to do more things than necessary. Anyway, I have to be closely intertwined with Sven.
If I can mobilize the pool of information I have, it's like giving wings to someone like me.
I was sent here in very poor condition, narrow windfall range, weak body, and no ability.
So, 'Defend with conscience and sass!'
