Chapter 59

As Karmen said, harmin tea allergies were obviously very rare.

However, in such a large empire, it was clear that some were born with it.

So Siervian worried about the people with similar illnesses who couldn’t use expensive alternatives.

“Well, they’re being treated exclusively by the Duchy.”

[ Hex ]
Thoughts: He had put a lot of pressure on the Duke to deal with allergies not long ago, and you must have figured it out.

Seeing Hex nodding silently next to her, even her father still seemed to be unfamiliar with this allergy.

“I see.”

But after hearing the answer, something remained unclear.

Only in her second life the Duke’s specialist was taken to prison, but it must not have been in her previous life.

He brought her the allergies in a tea as if taking care of another person.

‘Did he just listen to orders, the doctor?’

The situation had changed and so had the Empress’ orders, but the feeling of discomfort remained.

“Anyway, it is also the duty of the people of the empire to come here for a cup of harmin tea. It is also written in ‘the Emperor’s sacred duty’ by the first Emperor.”

“Yess.”

“So you don’t have to worry about anyone else getting hurt by allergies.”

How did her father know that she was worried about them?

At any rate, she was relieved that the empire seemed to be making great efforts so that there would be no people left out.

“Please, for pity’s sake! Please!”

Then one of the people who had entered the teahouse was roughly pushed out.

“I can’t!”

The woman, who had fallen on the floor, jumped to her feet again.

She approached the person who pushed her out of the teahouse and grabbed the leg.

“I don’t have any ulterior motives. Please, my daughter needs to drink harmin tea!”

“You can’t! I am the one who can only give harmin tea!”

When the commotion broke out, the eyes of people focused on the teahouse.

For the people of the empire, they seemed to be wondering about breaking the rules, the rules which were as easy as common sense for them.

“It’s because my daughter is sick. She has an extreme fever where she can’t even move properly!”

“Then it will get better and you won’t have to come back! Don’t you know that the date can be changed if there is a viable reason?”

“I know, I know! I’m a doctor, but I’m in a hurry because my daughter’s mana illness seems to be very rare. I beg you!”

Only then did people send a sympathetic look at the woman.

Some even recognized the face of the doctor who took good care of people in a commoner’s area.

‘Is it that person, by any chance?’

But Siervian looked at her with her eyes widely opened for other reasons.

[ Madeline ]
Occupation: Doctor (Lv. 89)
Emotions: Desperation

No matter how many times she looked at it, the name in the status window seemed familiar.

Above that, she was a high-level doctor.

‘No way, was she the doctor who discovered the use of Cassia?’

The same flower that was used to save Ellie’s younger sibling.

It was not until more than a decade later that cassia flower was found out to be a special medicine for child fever.

It was the work of an outstanding doctor with a lifelong research because of her child suffering from a rare fever.

“Please, I beg you.”

The manager of the teahouse, who had pushed her away recklessly, was also in trouble. But when the fear of losing the job kicked in, the manager shook his head with a darkened face.

“The circumstances aren’t like that, I must follow the rules. I’m really sorry.”

“But my…!”

At that moment, Siervian unknowingly grabbed her father’s hand, waving it.

The Emperor’s eyes had been careful because there were too many people, but it reached the doctor again.

“You must be concerned about them.”

With desperation similar to that of Madeline, Seirvian nodded.

If what she said were true, then there must be a way to save her daughter.

“Your Majesty, there are too many people. For now, we should quietly avoid this place.”

Hex approached carefully and whispered.

If it was known that the Emperor goes around the market like this, there will be many difficulties.

Not to mention having a Princess to protect.

“What would you say, Siervy?”

[ Hex ]
Thoughts: You should be careful there might be someone who is after you. The atmosphere hasn’t been so good lately.

Siervian was stubborn at the moment but lowered her greed when she saw the thoughts of Hex.

She didn’t know exactly what was going on, but she knew that the nobles led by the Duke always kept her father in check.

“…Okayy.”

“Let’s go.”

Eventually, the three quietly escaped from the front of the harmin teahouse.

* * *

“You must have been concerned about the doctor earlier.”

“Yees…”

They arrived at the secret place before the market so they could hurry back to the imperial palace.

It was sad for Siervian to turn a blind eye to an endangered life that could be saved.

But if she complained here, her father would be in big trouble.

“Chancellor.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

The Emperor watched the cute gloomy figure closely and called Hex in front of the magic circle.

“Go and call the Court Doctor.”

“… Will it be alright?”

With a light chin, the Emperor sent Hex to the palace.

During his return, the Emperor sat down in a crude chair in front of the magic circle and spoke sternly.

“The Imperial family is said to have as many obligations as the power they enjoy, but they cannot solve everything for the Imperial people.”

“Yees…”

But Siervian didn’t think that the Emperor should take charge of solving everyone’s grievances.

No one can make everyone satisfied in the first place.

“But in the rare opportunity where I happen to encounter people’s misfortunes, I can look into it.”

“Ish it…”

The following words filled Siervian with hope.

Alderuan kindly stroked Siervian’s head with his hand and continued as if everything happening were natural.

“I’ve already ordered a guard to look into the doctor’s house. Let’s go together when the Court Doctor arrives.”

“Yes!”

Siervian didn’t know, but there were many escorts that followed them, because it was the Emperor’s trip.

The Emperor had already sent a message spell to one of the guards so they could find the doctor’s house.

“Instead, we have to finish your city tour with this, is that okay?”

“It’s all wight!”

Of course it was all right, that’s why Siervian nodded quickly.

A cute lovely frame came to sight, so Siervian’s father patted her head for a long amount of time.

* * *
“Mmm.”

“How are you?”

When the Imperial Court Doctor suddenly appeared in front of her home, Madeline was stunned.

The Imperial Court Doctor was known for his excellent medicines, and often went outside the palace for lectures.

To this, most doctors were familiar with the face of the Imperial Court Doctor.

“Did you say you were already using the artemzo?”

However, Madeline almost fainted when the Imperial court doctor introduced the people behind him as the Emperor and the Imperial Princess.

If Madeline’s daughter was still lying down struggling to survive, death could have been the case.

“Yes. I am using a little bit of eurum in artemzo.”

“Oh, eurum? It’s a rare combination, and you did the best option.”

Madeline smiled slightly at the praise given by the respected Imperial Court Doctor.

But the light smile darkened quickly as she was still worried about her daughter who couldn’t get her head together for several days.

It was the same with Siervian’s face as she listened to the two of them from the back.

[ Hanta Mandersang ]
Thoughts: You’re already using the right medicine. The usage and the capacity are accurate. A great doctor, and the fact that you used the right medicine. …But the child’s illness is very strong.

Madeline’s expression gradually became gloomy as she carefully waited for the Court Doctor’s words.

“Is it mana sparsity, by any chance?”

“It’s a little different from mana sparsity… She must have had a terrible fever.”

In the end, it was like saying that there was nothing the great doctor could do.

Frustration settled in Madeline as she realized this.

“I’ll come and watch her every evening. Don’t give up, Massena.”

“Thank you… kugh-keugh, so much.”

“I give you my deepest gratitude, Your Majesty. I was just called to come outside.”

They first had explained to the Court Doctor about what happened at the teahouse before suddenly visiting Madeline.

Madeline’s teary eyes soon became a color that of red-like blood, and she turned to the Emperor and bowed deeply.

“Pardon my rudeness, and thank you for your kindness.”

“Give thanks to the Princess rather than me. And I have come to know the real emotion of the parent of the child, so there is nothing to worry about.”

While having this conversation, the Emperor could not hide his rude thoughts.

He also had heard the rumor that she was a commoner doctor in front of the teahouse.

So, he thought that there would be a better way for the Court Doctor, but he also thought that it was a case of a deep illness.

“Thank you, Your Highness.”

“Uung…”

[ Madeline ]
Favorability: 15,000
Emotions: great sorrow
Thoughts: You’re about the same age as my child; You already know how to take care of the Imperial people. Even if there was no special way of dealing with it, I am still very grateful. … Oh, God of mana. I believe something will happen.

Madeline was deeply impressed by the appearance of people running to report to only one disturbance.

But just for a moment when Siervian looked into her innermost emotions, Siervian somehow felt like crying as the minute the great sorrowness overwhelmed.

“You must have been through a lot, so we will be on our way now.”

“Thank you, thank you very much.”

“Your Majesty, I will take care of the child a little longer before I leave.”

The Emperor, who apparently had arranged all of this, nodded.

“I’ll leave the guards for the Court Doctor.”

* * *
Siervian’s expression was not so good after looking at a child her age in a bad condition.

The Emperor and Siervian were silent all the way back to the palace after passing the secret place.

It was not until she reached the palace that the Emperor finally found a platitude to soothe Siervian.

“Everything will be fine, Siervy. Don’t worry too much.”

“…okayy.”

But what her father said was not true.

As a result, Siervian had to think deeply while Ellie, who came to meet her, helped her get ready for bed.

“Princess, hmm, you’re silent today. Were you tired out?”

“Not weally.”

In the end, Siervian jumped up at the thought that she could not stay like this.

She hadn’t done her best yet. For fear that her secret would be revealed, she left the life of a person that could be saved as it is.

‘I can’t do this.’

She looked at Ellie, who could help her, with a cute but determined expression.
