Realize I Need You's

Episode 53 - Return

A month passed since I decided to stay in the western part of the kingdom, things have not gone easy here. I have not found a source of water and casualties are increasing because there are still many of them who consume dirty water. Let alone this, finished the food problem and now the drugs are running out. Without the energy and spirit that began to fade, I looked fixedly at the state of concern in front of me at this moment. Without feeling the tears have slid rapidly from the puffy pelupuk.

" Yeo Hyun Jae, wipe your tears. Men should not show tears in front of others. " (the healer Li approached and gave Hyun Ok )

" Physician Li, mianhae. Mianhae, what I'm doing here. I can't help anything. " ( I hold back the raucous voice and the whimper and I grab the little cloth and I roughly remove the trail of tears on the cheek ).

" Hmmm" (sounds of rough breathing from healer Li )

" It's okay, you've been trying " (plus healer Li patted my shoulder trying to comfort )

" Hebrew Li ! " (an assistant female healer ran in a hurry to call physician Li "

Physician Li turned to the origin of the voice and they chatted for a while, this floating thought made me not hear what healer Li said before he finally left with the female physician's assistant.

" Where else should I look " (my murmur in heart )

" I have spent a month of energy and thought, but I have not yet found a source of water. This place is really dry. "

With determination and strength left, I without feeling I walked further than usual, into the valleys and bushes, continuing down the steep rock road.

" Hahh. hahh.. hah.. hufftt. " ( I wipe sweat on the temples with sleeves ).

" I've been walking all day, doesn't this place have any hope anymore ? " (just felt increasingly limp legs that just keep running nonstop)

I also just sit between the dried brown grass while sticking out legs that have begun to numb. The sun had raised a tinge of orange at will without seeing me who was beginning to desperately search for a source of water.

" I won't be back before I find something "

Like being burned by a tinge of twilight my spirit is almost finished I cut back and then I move this foot to continue the journey, do not forget I also give a scratch mark on the tree trunks passed one by one.

CLAK ! CLAK ! CLAK !

" Hup, that,, "

My steps stopped when I heard the sound of droplets. My eyes stripped the surroundings carefully trying to find the origin of the sound. When I was about to walk around I almost fell, I suddenly pulled a branch that was not far to hold on until I was restrained. When looking down at the feet, there is green moss there.

" Moss ?! " (feelings of joy and hope just popped into my head)

I followed the trail of moss growth until it reached a cave illuminated by the twilight sunlight that began to sink. I breathe as much air as I can from inside. The moss stopped in the cave. Green and wet. I ran cheerfully inside and was surprised when I saw the dead end, the cave was not too big, the damp rocks around it were enough to confirm that there was a water source here. But no matter how many times I confirm, there is no other way in this cave.

" Why, I'm sure it's here. Why doesn't there. hhahh hahh. " (hyun Ok's vision began to darken with fatigue and he eventually fainted unconscious ).

The night came and it was getting late. Li's citizens and healers took a break from their activities. Physician Li looked for Hyun Ok whom he knew as Hyun Jae where he went but he did not find anywhere.

" Mister Zhen" (call his bodyguard)

" The lord's guess is correct, yesterday I caught the village chief talking outside the gate with some people who seemed to be from the capital "

" Well, we've got the evidence we're looking for, isn't it, it's time to act "

Physician Li returned to the hut and wrote a secret letter.

" Send this letter to the Crown Prince "

" Can we trust the Crown Prince ? "

" We will try " ( replied healer Li with a glaring look )

" Wait. " (prevent physician Li )

" Have you seen Hyun Jae all day ? "

" Hyun Jae ? eummm, looks like I just saw him once this morning.What's up, Mr Zhen ? "

" It's weird, after this morning I don't see him anywhere. Check his room, whether he has returned or not. "

" Good sir "

After sending a letter to the eyes - the eyes outside the gate of the bodyguard healer Li returned and turned the direction of knocking on Hyun Jae's room door. Tok tok !

Tok tok !

" Are you inside ? "

While waiting for an answer, things remained silent. Try again knocking on the door of the room harder while calling Hyun Jae's name. Duk ! Duk ! Duk !

" Mister Hyun Jae ?! you're inside ? healer Li asked you. I'll go in to just check. " (clearly ask permission)

Krieet.. After seeing Hyun Jae's room that was not touched by the bodyguard, the bodyguard again faced the healer Li who was preparing to sleep. Pursued his intention to report the things he had seen and then return to the room where others were staying.

Restless continues to haunt until healer Li woke up again.

" Where is he, why don't you report to me about Hyun Jae ? "

" hhh, maybe he has checked and is fine?. " (murm doctor Li sure )

Physician Li resumed his sleep without worry.

On the contrary, in the valley around the cave where Hyun Ok lay unconscious, some wild animals passed by just like that and did not enter the cave because of the coldness.

Cit Ciitt Cittt .., sayup - the sound of birds coming from outside the cave and woke Hyun Ok.

" Auhh, it's cold. " (the ringist hugs himself)

" Wait a minute, isn't that the sun ? " (my brain is trying to think hard to see the outside situation that is starting to light )

" Yes ! "

Surprised, I woke up and looked around.

" I fainted and slept all night here ? "

I shook my head several times trying to wake myself up. While checking out the cave, I found some large traces of wild animals passing by, probably last night. Well, fortunately, this cave is cold. My mummy was relieved.

" I'm sure it must be around here. " (i said sure and went back into the cave to check the walls more thoroughly )

No No No

Buk buk buk

Crak Crak Crak Crak

I found a wall that was more humid than the others, and sure enough. The moss I followed yesterday stopped under the rock. The ground looks wetter than anywhere else. " Sharp things "words are the first words that come out of my mind. I looked for a slightly larger stone with a pointed tip and threw all my might at the seepage source.

🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂🍂

Early in the morning the healer Li and her bodyguards were already busier than the others. They continued to search all over the village, imprints of Yeo Hyun Jae who just disappeared overnight.

" Why didn't you report this to me last night ?! " (Task Physician Li using their language )

" Mister Zhen, you look very tired. I don't want your break time drained, I thought the kid would be back "

" Come, let's go find the boy, Hyun Jae. somewhere else. " (let's say Li Jiazhen held back emotions )

Assisted by several bodyguards and villagers they searched the forest where Hyun Jae used to look for water sources but no trace of Hyun Jae was found.

" Healer Li, if you go deeper there are some beasts. There is no way the Crown Princess' envoy is there, dangerous " (assistance to a bodyguard)

Physician Li simply kept silent then said

" All right, come back first. I'll check further, if any of you want to come help I'll be very grateful " (crucib Li explained and walked down the rocky valley entrance where Hyun Ok was yesterday. )

Physician Li decided that after seeing the scratch marks on the tree trunk from afar through his sharp eyes. Some of the bodyguards and residents split into two, some returned and some decided to stay to look for Hyun Jae.

" The first sign " (Said healer Li believed that it was a trace left by Hyun Jae )

" Citizens, are you sure no one has entered this valley before ? " (question healer Li turned around while showing the sign on the tree)

" We are sure there is no " (answer one of the ahjussi adds )

" Then we follow this sign " (the healer Li turned first to look for the next tree trail followed by the bodyguard who was always loyal behind him )
