Chapter 233: Chapter 233. Ayri's Mysterious Diseases And Its Solutions
"Ayri's body lacks magic energy."
Suddenly, Waffle interrupted Sylphy's conversation and spoke casually in everyone's head, excluding Amy and Luna of course.
"What do you mean by that, Waffle?" Myne asked curiously.
"The magic I sense from Ayri is extremely faint, so faint that it's challenging to detect even for me who is very sensitive to it.
It's possible that our bath, filled with magic water, may have caused her magic-deficient body to absorb a substantial amount of magic energy, which could explain her sudden relief and newfound energy appearing in her body," Waffle hesitantly replied, not very sure about his conclusion.
"Waffle, what do you mean by Ayri lacking magic energy? I've never heard of such a thing before, where a small amount of magic energy could make someone weak," Sylphy asked with a worried expression.
"All living organisms, regardless of size or race, possess a certain amount of magic energy within their bodies. This energy functions much like blood in the body, but it's in the form of an invisible energy. When the magic energy in a person's body drops below a certain threshold, various symptoms may manifest during their daily activities, much like the effects of blood loss.
These symptoms can include dizziness, shortness of breath, and palpitations (the sensation of one's heart racing and felt in the chest). Similar symptoms occur when someone uses or loses an excessive amount of magic energy,"
Hearing Sylphy's question, Amy, a hundred-year-old granny, gathered her courage and meekly explained. After all, most elves are very skilled with magic, and their knowledge in the field is no less than any professional scholar. And Amy is an elven ex-princess so she clearly knows more about it.
"Since you know so much, do you have any solution to this problem, Amy?"
"Sorry, Your Highness Sylphid, if my father were still alive, he could certainly heal Princess Ayri, but it's not my cup of tea. Please forgive me," Amy embarrassingly bowed and words poured cold water on Sylphy's hope.
"What about you, Waffle?"
Not wanting to give up easily, Sylphy looked at Waffle and asked.
"I don't know much about it. Maybe you should ask Mother. She can definitely help you," Waffle suggested before flying into the kitchen to join his siblings, who had been eating breakfast for the last half an hour.
"Lord Husband, what should we do now?"
After hearing Waffle's suggestion, Sylphy looked at Myne with hopeful puppy eyes. Apart from Waffle, only Myne had a close enough relationship with Fenrir that he could ask her for help.
"As Waffle said, we should seek expert advice rather than relying on our own conclusions. You all wait here. I'll bring Ayri to Fenrir, and let's see if she has any cure for Ayri's illness.
"And Sylphy, relax, you are stressing more about this matter than Ayri herself. Everything will be fine."
After reassuring Sylphy, Myne took Ayri's arm, opened a portal to Fenrir's cave, and walked into it.
...
"Aaamm, there she is, let's go Ayri." After emerging from the portal beside a small pond, Myne looked around and found Fenrir peacefully sleeping under the giant tree in the middle of her exotic cave.
"Wow, Brother Myne," Ayri exclaimed, "Lord Fenrir's cave is so beautiful. This place looks like a fairyland from the books I've read. Even the water in the pond is shining like a blue gemstone. Oh, ohh, such a giant tree! How did it grow so big in a cave without much sunlight?"
Ayri cheerfully started looking around Fenrir's cave while asking various questions to Myne as if it were a vacation spot for her, and she was a tourist coming here to sightseeing. There wasn't a hint of tension on her face, regardless of whether her disease would be cured by Fenrir or not; it was as if she didn't care.
Hearing Ayri's energetic voice, Fenrir also woke up from her sweet dream. It wasn't easy for her to rest with her three little monkeys running around every day, she had to look after them while they were playing outside so something like the previous incident never occurred again.
"Myne, why are you here so early in the morning? Did the kids cause trouble for you? And if they did, why didn't you bring them with you instead of bringing a member of the royal family here? What's the meaning of this?" Fenrir asked with a frown, staring at Ayri with an unkind expression. Other than Myne, she had no good impression of any other Hume.
"Cool down, Fenrir," Myne replied, trying to calm her down. "The kids are fine; they didn't cause any trouble and having breakfast now, if I heard correctly. As for why I brought her here, it's because I want you to check her body and see what's wrong with her. Waffle mentioned that she has dangerously low magic energy in her body, which has left her extremely weak."
Myne got straight to the point without any unnecessary introductions. He knew very well that most divine beasts didn't actually like Hume, and only he was an exception among Hume who had different privileges for some reason.
"I am only doing this for your sake," Fenrir reminded Myne. Suddenly, her starry blue eyes started shining with a purple light, which lasted for only 7 seconds before returning to their normal state.
"She had chronic mana deficiency, an extremely rare disease that occurred when something went wrong with the organ that stores magic energy in a Hume's body or when it fails to develop properly. In Ayri's case, her organ is damaged, and there are many holes in it, preventing her body from properly storing and distributing magic energy throughout the entire body. That's why her body is so weak."
"If we compare her to an average Hume, she only has 8/10 of the magic energy inside her body right now, and it's constantly depleting. In a few hours, she might start feeling weak again unless she replenishes her body with magic energy," Fenrir said calmly, with a poker face, without showing any hint of pity or sympathy for Ayri.

For someone who had witnessed millions of people dying in front of her, this level of suffering didn't affect her strong heart at all.
"Since you know so much about it, is there any cure for this disease?" Myne asked with a frown. After hearing Waffle and Amy's explanation, he had already guessed the answer, but now, after hearing everything in detail from Fenrir, he finally found out why no one could cure Ayri's illness.
"Well, there are three ways to deal with the disease, one temporarily, which is enough for her to live a peacefully normal life, and two permanent. Which one do you want to hear first?" Fenrir teased Myne, even though she already knew the answer.
Hearing that her unknown illness, which had been declared incurable until now by almost everyone, was not easily discovered by Fenrir just after looking at her, and that there were three ways to cure it, Ayri couldn't help but tighten her grip on Myne's hand in excitement, which she had been holding the entire time. As for temporary and permanent solutions, she didn't have much about them.
Being able to live normally was already a God-given gift for her.
Myne replied helplessly, rolling his eyes, "Tell us permanent solutions first."
"The first permanent solution is very dangerous, If you don't have the desire to embrace death so early, then you better abandon this solution, because the place where you can find the object that can cure this little girl is not something that a person with your current level can reach.
You might say goodbye to the world before you even get thousands of miles near it," Fenrir spoke with a mocking smile.
"If that thing isn't possible to acquire, why the hell are you even mentioning it?" Myne angrily asked, with a cross-shaped mark on his forehead.
"Haha, if I hadn't mentioned it, you'd definitely try to look for it somewhere else, and I didn't want to see my best friend die without saying goodbye to me," This time, Fenrir spoke inside Myne's head with a smile. But seeing that Myne was angry, she continued...
The second solution is that you ask for help from high elves or an elven royal family may also work, because elves are connected to nature, and their magic-sensing affinity is very high. In the past, they developed various uses of magic, and one of them was magic seals.
You can ask for their help if you find any high-ranking royal elf; they can put a magic storage seal on her body, which can replace her damaged organ and supply magic energy throughout her entire body," Fenrir said with a smile as if she knew nothing about the current situation of the elves.
"Can you tell us your temporary solution? Your permanent solutions are as useless as your timing for joking," Myne said while rubbing his forehead with a headache, wondering if Fenrir was doing this intentionally because he brought Ayri to her home without asking.
Amy, maybe the last surviving royal elf member, had already told him that she couldn't do anything about it. Clearly, she had no idea about seal magic or anything related to the top secrets of the elves. She's just a normal, naive, good-looking big boobs elf princess, I mean, ex-princess, that's all.
"The temporary solution is just to feed her a liter of water from my pond two times a day, or you can also prepare a bath for her with your magic stones that you created with your Transfer Skill. They should absorb magic energy directly from the air, so the water produced by them is only half inferior to the water in my pond.
I have to say this is really a wonderful creation; even I was surprised when I heard about it from Waffle," Fenrir said with amazement. She never expected Myne would use his skill like this.
Why does it sound like Waffle is working as an undercover agent beside me and giving away all my secrets to Fenrir? I should be careful from now on, especially while engaging in in-depth communication with other girls.
If that big-mouthed brat found out about it and lacked such a big secret to Aisha and Sylphy for the sake of praise, my married life would become a living hell, Myne felt a chill run down his spine just thinking about it.
But upon seeing Fenrir and Ayri staring at him, he quickly put the matter of Waffle on hold and coughed lightly to continue their previous topic.
"Okay, I understand what to do. Thanks for your help, Fenrir. Now, we won't disturb your sweet sleep anymore. Let's meet at everything. We're going. Goodbye."
After receiving a nod from Fenrir, Myne opened the portal back to his living room and stepped through it with Ayri.
