Dancing Circles on the Horizon of Events
Chapter 12
"Hey! Hey doctor. I can't wait for you to help me. I'm getting a stomach ache.
"............
Eve, who had been looking around for someone in the church who could deal with them, stopped dead in her tracks when the big man spoke to her. When she did, she didn't turn around and frowned, perhaps because she expected to be stopped.
The big man who stopped Eve and her friends is not new to the church and has been waiting to be treated, but it's not because Eve and her friends had missed it. Eve did not dare to treat the big man.
The reason was simple. The reason is simple: Eve and her friends had no way to cure him.
"Hey, did you hear me?
The man was suffering from. It was a symptom called "jaundice," which is a yellow discoloration of the skin of the body or the supposedly white parts of the eyes or body. At first glance, Eve saw the symptoms, and she soon came up with the cause.
"(It could be bad for the liver. ...... It's also quite ......)
The other man smelled of alcohol. It is no longer a typical alcoholic's terminal condition, and even if not a knowledgeable Eve, it was clear that the big man's life expectancy was not very long. The cause was cirrhosis of the liver. An incurable disease.
The only way to save the big man is a liver transplant. But no one is a good candidate for a liver transplant, and on top of that, the transplant requires a very high level of skill, with the added restriction that the patient must never drink again. Prolonging the life of the patient by meeting all of these conditions is almost impossible. Especially in the case of the alcoholic patients, the last condition was difficult to meet.
Eve knew all of this and had put off the man's treatment. Even if he cast a recovery spell, it was useless. Even if Katarina and Yuki responded, not by themselves, it would be too late .......
But that's not to say that they couldn't continue to leave the man alone forever. If you're going to have to wait for someone to pronounce the man's life expectancy, he will continue to wait.
Giving a man a life-expectancy sentence is also part of responsible medical practice. And that is what Eve had to do, having reached out to the injured and sick. Above all, her sisters continue to confront many patients and their families with the inevitable fact of death in the present. Watching them return home with smiles on their faces, free of pain and suffering, was not the only therapeutic act.
Eve stood in front of the man, signaling with her hand to the small group of collaborators who were following behind her that they must not come. ...... Then, looking ready to go, he said.
I'm sorry, but Eve and her friends can't cure you. What you have is a deadly disease.
The big man made a clenched fist in front of the girl, who was not in the least bit disconcerted, but straight up pronouncing the sentence of death. That fist was trembling in small increments, as if it was shaking with rage. ...... This would make Eve, who was watching him, feel alarmed.
'Tsk!'
"Huh!
Eve couldn't help but close her eyes in front of the big man who clicked his tongue. As she did so, she reflexively used what little magical power she had to deploy warding and body strengthening magic on her body.
But even if you wait and wait, the impact will not come. It is so. It's because the man had no intention of harming Eve.
"...... Sorry. I guess I scared you. ......
"...... eh ......?
I know I have an incurable disease myself.
"............
I came here with the faint hope that this famous doctor here might be able to help you. ...... I didn't expect to be led by the town's English-sama.
It's a good thing that you're able to get the most out of this article.
But just to be sure, you should see Katarina-sama and Yuki-chan as well.
Oh, no. Your words have helped me to move on. I know I won't be around for much longer, so I have to prepare to die without regrets while I still can: ......
"(Without regret, hey ......)
Despite his huge frame, the big man trudges out of the church with a tottering gait. Watching him, Eve is inwardly poisoned. ...... If you know what you will regret, you should have lived a life without regret," he said.
Thanks, little girl. It's a good thing I'm the one who saved the town and got me ready to go, little girl! Hahaha! ...... Haha ......, that guy from Senegare, I hope you'll forgive me now ......
"............
Eve walked away from the big man's back without saying a word. It's ...... while also biting her lower lip in frustration.
