The Spirit of Modern Women in the Ancient Kingdom

Chapter.8 Goddess ( Goddess )

A week passed without any meaningful incident, Raven and Ellora were still trying to adjust in order to coexist together harmoniously.

Although they are still within the boundaries of friendship, but Raven little by little has opened her heart because Ellora's attitude and nature is really very pleasant. Even Raven never thought the Princess was so good at cooking.

All of that is because Ellora has been orphaned since adolescence, until she was accustomed to living independently and not dependent on others.

All the homework of course he could master everything, so one more thing about him that Raven liked so much and also one more thing that made all the weird things about Ellora on his mind.

In this ancient time let alone a Royal Princess, even the Daughters of Nobles would never be able to work within her Residence. But Ellora was so different from them, everything about her up until now Raven still could not understand. But even so his heart was moved, he was now following what his heart said.

While Ellora never thought of Raven as more than a friend, she was just plain ordinary because she still remembered betrayal after loving a man wholeheartedly. When he was unconscious after being hit by a car, for him his heart was also dead will not be easy to open his heart again to love again.

That afternoon Ellora pounced to go to the drugstore, "I'm going."

"I'll go with you" Raven also wanted to go with him.

"No, I can be alone" Ellora refused.

"Okay, be careful."

Ellora walked quite a distance because the drugstore was indeed quite far from the shops that he usually went to, let alone very difficult in this era to get raw materials to make medicine. If anything is too expensive.

Maybe the people who can buy it are only the upper middle class, because for ordinary commoners let alone buy medicine to eat they are very difficult.

The drugstore is the only one in the city of Odisha, so the place is indeed quite far if on foot, the only way there must pass through the settlement of the commoners. When passing by Ellora feel sorry to see the condition of the residents, let alone see children - toddlers who seem to have Kwashiorkor/Bad Nutrition disease.

Ellora could see their pale faces, thin bodies with flatulence. Their scaly skin contained patches of white and pink with blackish edges and hair on the head thin and yellowish.

Nutritional diseases are bad in the medical world, is one form of Mal-nutrition caused by an error in nutrition can be a lack or excess of nutrients.

Because Ellora majored in Medicine in her college, even though she has not become a Doctor but she already understands a lot in terms of medicine. Ellora had also apprenticed to an assistant to a Doctor at the Hospital and was already used to the thing she was seeing now.

Ellora immediately thought of treating them, as they could not possibly treat themselves. With such a thought he stepped his feet excitedly towards the medicinal shop.

"Tomorrow I will come again with food containing calories to give them treatment, because that food is the most potent medicine for those who are nutritionally poor" he murmured happily.

When Ellora came home in the afternoon to talk to Raven because she needed money to buy a lot of food, she told Raven to sell the jewelry she had brought from the Kingdom.

"But this is your jewelry, is it okay - is it sold again?" doubt Raven.

"It's okay - what. We have a little more money, we only have a few bags of gold and silver coins. Although for food sometimes you buy but still need us a lot, so we have to sell it."

"much? Isn't our need a little? What's the money really for?" ask Raven.

Ellora looked at the man, she could not yet say what the money was going to be used for, "I'll keep it, if something suddenly needs money we can use it."

"No need to sell, I still have money if I need to just use my money," for the first time Raven refused because after all it was Ellora's jewelry. "If you really need that money, I'll give it to you."

"That's your money, not mine. I don't want to depend on others" Ellora refused.

"At the moment you're not working so surely your money will run out soon" he continued.

Raven was actually a little sad Ellora refused like that, but she ended up following the woman's will and immediately left to sell her jewelry.

As Raven's mind raced through Ellora's words saying that if she doesn't work, it's true. Moreover, all this time he lived from the Kingdom's money, even now the money was left a little more because of the many expenses he had to pay such as rent for the house. "Well, I'll get a job soon" he told himself.

The next morning because Raven was determined to find work, the young man left early in the morning before Ellora even woke up.

When Ellora woke up the girl did not find Raven's whereabouts, but she did not mind her because she too today would be a lot of busyness.

At noon after finishing at home, Ellora finally left with money from the sale of her jewelry but she only brought it as necessary.

Later Ellora would give them foods containing Protein, but since in the treatment of malnutrition she had to treat them in a gradual way. Because previously they lacked nutrients, after these calories provide new energy they are then given high-protein foods such as fish, shrimp, squid, meat and eggs.

Ellora asked the seller to lend her servants and a cart to help her carry the groceries. The seller agreed because the girl added extra money to her purchase.

After Ellora reached the settlement, everyone there just stared at her for not recognizing her, also because it is rare for someone with an appearance like from the upper middle class to come to the slum area. Ellora understood their gaze and tried to talk to one of the adults there.

Ellora spoke to a young woman whose face was friendlier than everyone around her, then Ellora said that she was well-intentioned to treat the children of toddlers who had the disease and Ellora pointed to the child who was thin but had a big belly.

After a brief acquaintance of the young woman named Rhoslyn, the woman understood Ellora's words because Rhoslyn knew that the children were sick. There have been many children like them in this settlement who could not survive the disease and eventually died.

Rhoslyn helped round up people whose children were malnourished, and introduced Ellora.

"Name is Miss Ellora. He's well-intentioned to want to help sick kids, because he thinks it's a malnutrition disease." Rhoslyn.

"If you don't understand, they get sick from lack of food. So this Miss Ellora purposely brought nutritious food for you, give this food to your child." Rhoslyn said it clearly.

Those who heard it were very happy and unceasingly grateful to Ellora and kept saying that they had come a Goddess.

"I'm not a Goddess, Oops! I mean I'm not a Goddess, I'm just like you. I'm just a human being." His tongue sprained again.

They did not understand but heard a foreign language in their ears, the people instead changed the call 'Goddess' to Goddess following the words of Ellora.

"Goddess!" call everyone.

Ellora simply shook her head, letting out the call.

All the food he brought was divided equally to all the families who were really lacking, he reminded the parents to give this food 3x a day to their children. For lunch and dinner, they understood and thanked him once again.

The food that Ellora brought for them was enough for the needs of 3 days, but like the vegetables Ellora told them to run out in 1-2 days, it should run out, he also promised once every 3 days he would come to this place.

Finally Ellora came home with a happy heart, because there is a satisfaction of its own if it can share and indirectly treat them as well. Along the way he smiled happily, even at home his smile was still fluffy.

When he came home it turned out Raven was still not at home, he frowned feeling astonished because usually the man was not too long if he was out of the house.

The man Ellora was thinking about finally getting a job, he worked as a laborer on the dock of the ship whose job is to carry the luggage of passengers who get on or off the ship.

Raven occasionally wiped the sweat on his face, this was only the first time he as a Royal Prince did such an exhausting job.
