154 An unexpected guest

When Nathan open the right palm of Anne’s hand, all of them couldn’t believe what was inside her hand. She was holding onto a big needle, or an item resembling a big needle. Nathan and Hector already know what is actually the item was.

“What’s that? A needle?” Vale looked at the item with curiosity.

“This… is a moskeeto stinger, poisonous, and suspected as the source of the moskeet fever. ” Said Nathan while he carefully took the stinger with a handkerchief from her hand. “But the reason why Anne clutches so hard on this poisonous item, I can’t even imagine.”

“I’m afraid I can, senior,” Hector whispered. Fear was detected in his voice.

Justice’s head turns into the alchemist. “What is it? Tell us everything.”

“She… well, she and I may have discussed something in the tent. About how she could heal the new variant more than the main hospital percentage.” Hector tells them the story, everyone listening to him without saying any words, “When she goes back to the tent, I asked her what happened, because she was crying, and…”

“Wait, did you just say that she was crying?” Justice cut into Hector’s sentences as soon as he heard about Anne crying.

Hector nervously nodded his head. “Err… yes, I heard a sniffle and asked her. She said it was nothing. I wanted to distract her and we begin to discuss the new variant,” Hector answered Justice’s question, while the crown prince was taken aback by the truth, Hector continued on, “and when I mentioned to her about how lucky she was that she never had the new variant after treating so many patients made her think of something.”

Vale nodded his head, “Continued…”

.....

“She… she thought she might be immune to moskeet fever, and the new variant. That’s why we have some ideas to test if she is really immune from the new variant.” Hector looks around the room. “Hence why we need to have collected some samples from the nest.”

Justice suddenly chuckles from the place he was leaning on, “We? What an amusement.” His red eyes look threatening to Hector, even though his face was calm, but the coldness in his tone says it all, “You! Let her go alone to pick samples. You! Never told us to protect her.”

There was a dreaded feeling goes to Hector, “I… I am sorry, your majesty, never thought that she was going to take the stinger by grabbing it like that.”

“Well, what do you expect her to do? You embedded this crazy and dangerous thing on her, and you don’t even join her to share the workload!” Justice massaged his temple, and the next words that come from his mouth gave a chill into Hector’s bone. “Pray that she will be alright, or I will make sure you pay for this.”

“I will put your word inside my mind and work hard for the cure.” Hector took the stinger and the samples from Anne’s bag, he then excused himself from the tent.

“Put some guards on him. I don’t want him to leave the alchemist tent before he got some results!” Said Justice to a guard.

“You don’t need to go overboard. I mean, Anne probably has the same thought as him.” Vale scolded his friend, feeling sorry for Hector.

Justice glared at Vale. “Even though both of them were guilty, he is not the one who lying down here, right?”

“Still, Justice, placing your anger at the poor man will not make Anne better.”

The words that came from Vale were giving Justice the harsh truth. He let out a sigh and sit in the chair, waiting for Nathan to be done treating Anne. She was so pale, her face was losing so much color, it makes them worried.

“Nathan, how is she?” Asked Justice to the senior healer.

Nathan took a deep breath and asked one of the helpers for some acupuncture needles. “I need to take some of the poison out of her system. Using acupuncture will help.”

“So, is she infected?” This time it was Vale who asked Nathan.

“No, at least for now. We need to wait for three days.” Answered Nathan to Vale, he couldn’t give the two of them false hope and continued his explanation, “There was a possibility the moskeet fever came from the stinger on the moskeet, but we need to be sure first, and on the other hand if Anne was immune like how she and Hector suspected…”

“Then she will get through this.” Muttered Justice.

Nathan’s head turned into Justice, “If she really was immune, then we need to find out by the antibody test. Hector will surely work hard for the test.”

Vale looks into her. He feels helpless right now. “How long till we find out about this test?”

“About one or two days. For now, I will make sure she was comfortable enough in the suspected patient’s tent.” Nathan looks at the two gentlemen, and carefully handed the mask to them. “Please wear a mask at all times. I’m not going to allow you to visit her if you don’t wear the mask properly.”

“I need to be here,” Justice stubbornly still sat on the chair, he wear the mask but refused to go away. “I will make sure first that she will be stable and then I will leave the room.”

Nathan gives up. He took the needles and stands up, his hand already reaching out to a privacy curtain. “Alright then, but I need to use the curtain while you’re here.”

“Be my guest, as long as I could see that she wasn’t in any kind of pain because of those needles.” Justice gave him a shrug and leaned on his chair.

Vale and Nathan just shook their head. The treatment took a while. Both Justice and Vale need to wait while turning their head from Anne. The curtain wasn’t helping to give her some privacy. The silhouette of her body was so clear to see by the two gentlemen. After Nathan was done with the procedure, Justice finally could see some color on her face.

“She is stable for now. Though, I don’t know when she will be conscious. I suggested that both of you go and take some rest. It must be a tiring day for both of you.” Nathan said to Justice and Vale.

After Nathan asked them to go and get some rest, in the east gate, someone is coming back from a hard fight with two monster birds, his body was drenched in blood, and while he was taking a deep breath, he gave the knight two large heads of the Gardoran.

“Cap… captain Henry?” Said the knight, nervously.

Henry just gave them a glare and said, “Put those heads in the chilled room. The huntsman needs to inspect them.”

“Well, don’t bother to ask anyone else. There’s a huntsman captain here.” Said another person from behind him.

Henry turned his head and was in for a surprise. “You? What are you doing here?”
