Chapter 51
Chapter 51
I regretted giving Polly to Cedric.
Indeed, the bond between the magical being and the owner was unique, and Polly seemed more comfortable than when in my embrace.
It’s sad, but it can’t be helped.
It was then.
I felt the gaze from the other side.
It was Jake.
It looks like Jake, who had been out of class for a while before I applied the potion to Cedric, came back.
Because Polly accidentally got sauce on his shirt.
So he went out to change clothes.
‘No, but what’s wrong with his expression…..?’
But something was strange.
It wasn’t like the usual Jake I know.
Jake looked at me with shocked eyes, then immediately glanced at Cedric on the other side, and then went out the door again.
As I looked at the silently closing door without making a sound, I tilted my head.
What’s wrong with him?
Did someone press his buttons?
* * *
However, despite my doubts, Jake returned immediately in a minute with a casual expression.
Then he came to me and asked me the usual words, if Mir liked the changed clothes more.
“Jake, go ahead and finish eating. It will all cool down.”
When the dishes were just starting to come out, the sauce got on him, so Jake couldn’t even have lunch properly.
When Jake listened to my worried words, he went back to the table, leaving the words,’That’s right, I should.’
It was the usual Jake-like behavior.
So I thought nothing was wrong with Jake.
Obviously, I did.
“Ack!”
After a while, a sharp scream came from the direction of the table, which seemed a bit contrived. The owner of that voice was Jake. I ran straight to Jake.
What happened?
“Are you okay? Lord?”
And the knights of the Imperial Palace, Countess Edmonds, and even the children ran after hearing the sound.
Everyone was looking at Jake.
Jake kept his head down, so all I could see was Jake’s curly, soft brown hair.
But when I looked closely, there was something red on the tip of his white finger.
It was blood.
“Ja, Jay. Are you hurt?”
Seeing it, I ran straight to Jake and checked his hand.
At my cries, I wondered if the children around me seemed to have noticed the situation.
Jake replied in a small voice.
“No, it hurts a little, but… it didn’t hurt a lot. I just accidentally slipped my hand……”
“What are you talking about, you can see drops of blood because of the cut.”
Seeing the knife that fell on the floor, I could tell.
After a while I heard Mrs. Edmond pop up from the side, and was startled and yelled to bring a first aid kit.
After a while, when I saw the first aid kit brought by an attendant, I shouted.
“I’ll do it!”
***
“Are you saying that the Lady wants to do it yourself…?”
“Of course. Please give it to me.”
Leaving behind Mrs. Edmond, embarrassed by my cry, I was immediately handed a first aid kit by the attendant. Then, I immediately took out a bandage and disinfectant and began to treat it, before the Mrs. or other knights could stop me, quickly.
‘I’m glad that the tool that stabbed him is not a dirty knife.’
If it had been rusted, he might have to take a separate medicine. Fortunately, however, it was a new-looking knife that had not been used yet. Besides, the wound was not as deep as I thought, so I was deeply relieved. After wiping the injured area with a soft gauze moistened with disinfectant, another gauze was taken out and wrapped around the wound and covered with a bandage.
“Hooo……”
Only then could I take a breath. I was surprised to find out that a cold sweat was flowing down my temples.
‘I didn’t even exercise, but I’m sweating……?’
Oh, I think it’s because I moved too quickly with my small body. But I saw blood, blood! I couldn’t help it. It was then. Suddenly, I heard a clap and an exclamation. It was Ninaina’s voice.
“That’s cool, Emir.”
“Oh, Your Highness. What’s cool! You are exaggerating……”
Ninaina and the children standing next to her had an expression of having seen a great accomplishment, and the teachers and knights had a thrilled face. I replied slightly awkwardly.
Then Ninaina asked another question.
“Where did you learn such a bandaging skill? It’s not a normal skill.”
