Chapter 346: The Elves’ City (1)

“How are you feeling, Honorary Cardinal?”

“Yes, I’m comfortable. I can’t remember when was the last time I was able to be so comfortable. I’m in a very good mood.”

Of course, it was all ironic, but Elena didn’t seem to notice the thorns in my words. She smiled widely as if she was happy upon hearing my response. She sent a divine power that I hadn’t heard of while thinking that she had a rewarding time today.

It looked like she was treating a leprosy patient. She seemed to put up with it, but I could see her mouth slowly opening as if my disgusting energy was not disappearing. As we had been in an enclosed space for a long time, it was frankly amazing to endure this much.

I didn’t know why my soul was disgusting, but considering that she let everything inside her out as soon as she met me, she could be said to be courageous to hold on so far.

“Can I go get some air? Ugh.”

“Yes, of course.”

The sound that came after leaving the wagon with a smile was a spectacle.

“Ugh. Ugh.”

‘I can hear everything…’

“Blaaarrggghhh.”

‘I can hear everything…’

“Blaaaar… ggghh.”

“Elena-nim… Elena-nim.”

“Sigh… Sigh… Yes.”

“Are you okay?”

“Yes. I’m fine. Ludwig.”

“You don’t have to overdo it.”

“No, Ludwig. Honorary Cardinal Lee Kiyoung will be having a harder time than me. I have to work hard as the mission was given to me. I can’t even say that it’s hard at all. Haha…”

“But… Elena, he’s…”

I couldn’t hear his voice as if he realized that he hadn’t used soundproofing magic, but it was like locking the stable after the horse was stolen.

‘There is no such nightingale.’

I couldn’t hear them, but I think I could tell what they were talking about. Perhaps Ludwig and her attendants were telling her that she needed to take a break, and Elena, united with her strange sense of mission, was nodding her elongated head, saying it was all okay.

In fact, this treatment was a trivial process of sending her divine power, but to her attendants, it would seem as if their princess was stepping into a space full of twisted, deadly plagues. It was hard for them to see the princess vomiting several times a day.

It was too harsh even for me to think of, but perhaps over there, they would think it was even worse.

As I glanced at the window, I started to see the landscape constantly changing. It seemed like I was on a train. It was not unreasonable to be fast because it ran with a horse with various buffs pulling the carriage. Even the wagon didn’t feel shaken. I couldn’t imagine how hard the guild’s wizards and priests were trying to maintain it like this.

I bet it would feel more comfortable to just march.

‘Because there is no need to do this.’

Of course, even if I were to say that I was okay in the current situation. It was nothing more than an empty cry. In the meantime, I said countless times that I felt like I was getting healthy, but all were ignored. In fact, by now, I had come to the point where I had to keep lying. Pretending to be fine all of a sudden could look strange, so I was still maintaining my previous state.

Of course, I was slowing down the cycle of my seizures, little by little, to show that Elena’s treatment was working, but all the other guild members were unsure, thanks to this elf princess, which stiffened her complexion.

Come to think of it, the last time I had a seizure was 11 hours ago.

The seizure cycle was gradually slowing down from the first 8 to 11 hours, so it would be appropriate to have a seizure by now. I didn’t want to do it because I felt sick for some reason, but I quietly adjusted my breath and tried to crumple my whispering voice into my throat.

The point was that I didn’t want to be noticed. The current Light Kiyoung was a person who wanted to hide as much as possible that he was sick from his teammates. He repressed a miserable scream and twisted his whole body, much like when someone was watching. He moved enough to appear in a major zombie movie. It was a move that deserved an acting award to me.

“Ah… Ah…”

Of course, the unbearable screams started to leak out. As the door rattled open, seeing Elena appear once again seemed to confirm my voice.

“Lee Kiyoung! Lee Kiyoung!”

“Ahhhhhh!”

“Ludwig! Please hold onto the arm of the Honorary Cardinal.”

“Okay.”

“Once again, erosion seems to be going on. Please be patient, Honorary Cardinal. I am with you. I am with you.”

“Ugh.”

It was no wonder that she bit her lips tightly and shed a few drops of tears. Of course, Princess Elena herself was crying, and she was pushing her divine power over here.

“You will be able to overcome it, Lee Kiyoung. You have to fight.”

“Gasp…”

“Please do not give up. Don’t accept it. Resist it to the end.”

“What. Our Hyung-nim again…”

“O-Oppa!”

It was natural that the galleries that came to see my acting first went into the room with anxious faces.

She had a deep divine power, so it would be normal for me to look healthy for some more time, but for some reason, this woman’s divine power was painful. What I felt last time was not my mistake. I had been treated several times since then until now, but it hurt for some reason. Of course, it wasn’t annoying, so I could show a calming performance when Elena, who eventually pulled her divine power to her limits, sighed and took her breath away.

“Waaahh…”

“Are you okay? Hyung-nim, are you okay?”

However, afterward, my body became drowsy as if I would fall asleep. The painting contrasted with Elena, covered with sweat, and Park Deokgu and Jung Hayan, who were crying. Even today, the thought that I had piled up a stack of trash was quiet, but this was the best in the current situation. For now, I had no choice but to keep this lie.

The voice I heard when I was about to fall asleep with my eyes closed was a spectacle. It wasn’t good news for me.

“Is he a little bit better? Is he sleeping right now?”

“Yes. Fortunately, he seems to have blacked out.”

“I want you to be honest with me. He looks a little relaxed now, but the seizure cycle is noticeably longer… wasn’t it first aid, for now?”

“No. I would like to say good news, but it is not. Of course, it is welcome that the cycles are getting longer apart, but… the condition did not get better. The inside is still contaminated and twisted that I can’t see with my eyes. Rather, I feel like he’s increasingly resisting my strength. I couldn’t imagine it would it be so rotten… it may be difficult to improve his condition simply on my own completely.”

“Then…”

“Yes. There is still erosion going on, and it is still dangerous.”

“Uh, what should we do?”

“How do I tell you… for now, I will try to reach with my strength.”

“Well, thank you very much. Heartily …”

“I always tell you, but there is no need to say that. It was a job given to me.”

“Oh! A-And I want to ask you one more thing…”

“You can talk.”

“Time, how much time is left… does he still have time?”

“…I can’t exactly know that. Will it be tomorrow or a year later? For now, I have no choice but to hope that Lee Kiyoung Lee will endure it. It all depends on the will of the Honorary Cardinal.”

“T-Then it won’t be a problem. I don’t know anything else, but Hyung-nim has a strong mentality. Erosion, contamination, or whatever, he’s going to blow it all away. Probably, if you let him be, he will endure for ten years. I’m sure he will… I can be relieved… Yes, absolutely…”

“Yes. He will definitely get through it.”

I heard Park Deokgu’s voice, who seemed to be crying, and sensed Jung Hayan, who was busy rubbing my hands. In fact, I had heard such a conversation more than once or twice, but it had soon become burdensome.

‘No, not much time left, my ass.’

I wanted to get up and dance right now, but I couldn’t even open my eyes to the very solemn atmosphere. As this happened several times a day, it became rather dull. In the asshole show, which had now become a daily routine, the Blue Guild members were swaying day by day, and there was no day where no tears ran down their cheeks.

“I think he’s having a good sleep after a long time…”

“I think it would be better to leave. There is not much left until arrival, so it would be better to let him rest, even Jung Hayan.”

“I’ll stay in h-h-here.”

“…”

“I’ll stay h-here.”

“Jung Hayan-nim, I understand your feelings.”

“I will stay here… Hic. I will stay here.”

“Please let her stay with him for a moment.”

“But…”

“Hyung-nim will want it, too. We will arrive in a few hours anyway. Let’s leave.”

“Yes.”

I didn’t know what the hell he meant by I was going to want it, too, but I heard the door closed once again. It was no wonder that I had gotten tense. This was because, in the past, when I was sleeping, Jung Hayan always did something unusual.

However, she didn’t do anything other than lying next to me. Instead, only a crying sound continued to resonate.

“Hic… Waaaahh…”

‘Oh, gosh.’

“Hic… Hic…”

‘Don’t cry…’

At this point, even though it was me, I was going to feel guilty. It was very burdensome to hear only the sniffling sound in the quiet room. I want to lead my tired body and take one more nap, but I couldn’t possibly sleep in this atmosphere.

“Hic… You can’t be sick. Hic.”

“…”

“Hic…”

“… “

‘When will we arrive? They said we’re almost there.’

Time seemed to continue to flow, but the sound wasn’t going to diminish, and it wasn’t until three more hours with my closed eyes that I started to hear the sound of bustling outside.

‘Good.’

I couldn’t confirm what kind of situation it was, but the wagon’s speed that was running crazy seemed to be gradually decreasing. We were close to the Kingdom of Eberia. Jung Hayan, who had only been crying, got up.

I didn’t know exactly what she was doing, but she was probably looking out of the window. At one point, the carriage stopped, and I heard the sound of the door opening.

“Nuna, it seems like we arrived. You should come outside…”

“How about Oppa?”

“I guess he has to stay a little…”

“No, Deokgu. I’m awake.”

“Gasp… You can sleep a little more. Why are you already…?”

“We’ve arrived, and I have to see what the Eberia Kingdom looks like.”

As soon as I got up, Jung Hayan grabbed my arm. Park Deokgu also started to treat me like a baby bird. Eventually, I got out of the wagon, but everyone’s treatment had begun to make me feel uncomfortable.

“Welcome to the Kingdom of Eberia, everyone.”

“Welcome.”

At the forefront, Kim Hyunsung was talking with someone while shaking hands, and Cho Hyejin and others were no different. In fact, what caught my eyes more than the guys was the current background surrounding me.

An eye-catching scenery unfolded before my eyes.

“Wow…”

My jaw had unconsciously dropped.
